Hi,
I want to perform a hard reset of my XDAIIi, but I'd like to keep all my text messages, especially the ones in my Inbox as the Sent ones are less important.
Does anyone know how I can do this?
Thanks,
James.
use jeyo mobile companion. i think it can both import and export text messages via your computer.
sms notifier only exports it to txt or csv format, which you can still read in your ppc using notes.
Excellent. Thanks for the tip. I tried it and it works really well. SO mush so that I'll probably buy it after the trial period.
Thanks,
James.
I use sms organizer from www.zedsoft.net

try SPB backup..
no need of PC
I was an smsBackup person until I discovered Jeyo Mobile Commander.
Also INSANELY useful for taking screenshots of your device without having to install another app to do it, AND it can organise / edit / backup and restore your contacts too, which is dead handy.

Backup SMS
Hi,
I think this is not the place for my question. Yet since its such a wonderful site with wonderful people, if anyone could help me out ?
I need to backup and transfer all my sms from Qtek 1010 to Imate Jam. I know how to transfer all the contacts with outlook express. How do we transfer the sms ?
Please guide.
Thanks in advance,
Sid.
Try using Jeyo Mobile Companion
I used Jeyo Mobile Extender and it worked very well. The demo should let you do what you need -- very cool Outlook plug-in.
Thanks guys, i tried the 15 day trial version. Its cool. Backs up the sms with some *.spd extension when i tried with my imate jam. I think it should work well with Qtek 1010 as well.
Thanks again for sharing.
Sid.

SMS backup.
Hi all,
I have got loads of SMS messages in my Inbox. Actually i have created a seperate folder under the Inbox and transferred all my SMS to that particular folder. Now all of a sudden i cannot open any of those sms. I cannot move it too. How can i take backup of that folder ? I tried one of the software like JEYO, SMS Cool, but it just allows to take backup of the Main Inbox and does not read any folders other than the defaults. It does not show any folders under the Inbox !
Can anyone guide for any good software that can just backup these msgs ? Or is there any other way, that i can recover those msgs ? I do not want to spend on any softwares just for this reason, if any free or trail would solve it would appreciate.
Thanks
Sid.
Youd deffinitely love this freeware tool called smsOrganizer. Simply amazing tool to select what messages to backup hide and many more to play.. Get it from www.zedsoft.net
HI,
Thanks for you reply.
I did went through that software, but did not try. Will give it a try if it works. As of Sprite, i guess its the best for it. I could not get any trial download as well for same. Is it available for trial or evaluation copy somewhere ?
Thanks,
sid.
If you wanna screw things go for sprite! Sprite had a bug where your message get corrupt! You can't view them and you can't delete them too! When your'e getting something for free and its better too, go for it!
I've backed up my contacts and appointments using the built in xBackup software but it ran into trouble and in the end I've got 4 copies of all my contacts and appointments. I've decided to hard reset it and reinstall all application but I don't want to lose all my SMS's. Is there any folder that I can copy and save somewhere so that I can put it back when the whole thing is done? Please help!!
Google for smsorganizer, it's free and good
I've downloaded SMS Organizer but whenever I try to install it I get an error message telling me it's not a valid Windows CE startup file. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

The best for SMS and contact backup and restore for alpine WM2003 is -
Easy helper - which I'm using for ages and never give me trouble. Easy to use as well
Best i have found is PIMBackup from this forum. No install required, just copy the exe to memory card and run from there. I have used it to transfer between PPCswith great success.

Hello!
I'm going to hard reset my BA, but i would really like to keep my text messages+some other programs. Which is the best backup software 4 this?
Thanks!
My personal favourite for SMS is Jeyo Mobile Companion. But that only does SMS, I don't know the best app to use the Programs.
Description: Were you a Treo 650 user? Miss the old threaded "Chat Style" of the text messages? Well, you don't have to be sad any longer! With the SMS Threader application, you can now send and receive your text messages just like you used to! The program will even automatically open even if it's not running! All threads are automatically backed up as HTML files, for easy viewing on any machine!
PS - If the program does not function correctly after installation, your device may need a soft reset.
Thanks, i'will give it a try.
looks good, fonts is a bit small on the message text and can't see a way of making it larger
I have had a couple of crashes when trying to select the message thread with my stylus (which did not open it) and by then using the action button.
I have been after this app for ages so thanks for the post
Paul
great to see SMSs like IMs, its the application I never knew I needed.
Only prob is the character counter doesn't seem to count the characters, staying at "0/160" even when a message is typed.
Also, annoyingly when in a convo the "X"/"OK" button is not present, forcing you to click Options >> Close to exit the convo. Though there seems to be options to "close after response" etc so this might not be so annoying
PocketCM also does a similar thing and in my opinion has a great interface. A must have application IMHO (http://www.pocketcm.com/)
True, the way this is done in Pocketcm is really good. I used it for a while but the rest of the program isn't what i expected from a good contact manager.
I have been using shogunmark_wm6_threaded and it has been perfect so far.
How do these compare to IMSMS, which I find works very nicely -
@argoldst
palm threaded app working perfectly on kaiser? did u manage to make mms feature to work? which rom are you using? would be great to get this all working
After a nights use of the OP app I found it to be a little annoying, for the following reasons:
1. Constant notification alerts in the top bar, even when I have read the thread. This means your constantly "dismissing" an alert, just to see if the thread has been updated with a new SMS
2. The alerts didn't popup over my full screen app (TomTom) which was annoying as I had to minimise TomTom just to check if I had a SMS or not. Default notifications popup over full screen apps AFAIK.
3. All new message go into the thread, but not into the Default Messaging list, so attempts to bypass it are impossible.
Think I will try some of the other threaded SMS apps listed here.
Am I the only one only looking for a little program that automatically threads all my EXISTING SMS's?? Everybody talks about these SMS Threaders that only thread SMS's sent within that program.
CMContacts is better; it looks at my existing SMS database but I do not need another contacts app (FingerFriendlyFriends is THE BEST contact manager for my purposes...) on my Kaiser!
The best solution would be a sort of a threader-plugin on the existing messaging-application, but as far as I know that does not exist...
Just my 2cts!
Does it transfer the sms's already in your inbox to the threaded program? Or does it not? Does it replace your inbox as the Palm Messaging app, or does it only add a new app? Thx
I cant find "CMContacts" anywhere
Do you have a link to this "CMContacts" software?

the version i downloaded automatically sets your defeault SMS to the palm one, and it replaces my old inbox with the new palm one. Basically i installed it and it became my default SMS application automatically. Only downside to palm threaded app is that you cant use on-screen key boards very effectively, they all cover up the txt input box in a convo. message. Except when you write a new message.
and to Eddythepeddy: i believe it will thread all of your existing SMS...hmm could be wrong about this tho, for me it only threaded my sent messages

Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, everything works perfectly including mms.
The only negative to it is that the txt will not thread until you reply. For examlpe, if you get in 4 sms from Jane but never replied, it will show up as 4 different sms. Once you reply, they will all fall into a single chat (threaded sms) and will stay like that. You ONLY have to reply once to get all future (and past) sms's to thread.

anything special you did to get mms to work correctly? I (and most people here) get a memory error when trying to send mms.
You can get all sms to thread regardless under options. There should be a setting to thread all messages.
Hey all,
so i have two very strange issues...
1. Bluetooth OBEX - I can send FROM the phone to any device (That supports it) but I cannot send anything TO the phone from any device. Typically i will get a generic "Device does not support OBEX" error message
-- I have tried sending paired, and not paired
-- I have verified that filesharing is on, and all of my bluetooth options are enabled
2. SMS's not in order - When I installed my current rom (see my sig) And used PIM restore to put my SMS's back, they are not in the order that the conversation happened. If you look @ each day. the messages appear their's first for the day, then mine... its kinda weird.
-- In some instances I dont even see the messages that were sent to me. When I tried making PIMBackup to restore the messages again it said they were already there. I have received some new SMS"s that I dont want to wipe out if I can avoid it but i've never seen this before and it makes no sense
Another thing.. where do I edit the size of text on context menu's ? (asside from the start menu which was using LargeStartMenu)

Hi there,
1.Not all devices are bluetooth 2.0 compliant and I have the same problem sending from older devices.
2. SMS's order can be set in main screen. Select Received on top right
3.Text size can be changed under Start>Settings>System>Screen
There is a tab for font size at the bottom with a slide bar. I have set mine to 2nd last notch from right.
Hope this helps.

Hey MAC, thanks for the reply
for the bluetooth item, this is from my brand new dell laptop or even another att tilt. Even my friends 8125 that was working on some other roms i have problems with now.
the SMS issue is not on the inbox screen its on the actual message history screen. So if I click on an item in my inbox it brings up the coversation thread. In there it shows all of my friends messages first then the ones I sent in reply so instead of .... them... me .. .them.. me. its them... them.. them.. me .. me.. me ... its kind of weird
I had already checked the text size on the screen page. It was set to normal, but the menu's are still huge (see screenshot)

I see re the bluetooth issue. Nt sure as my laptop sends and receives fine from my TyTN II.
If you are using threaded sms then I can't help as I have normal one.
I see you are also using WK Task which comes with the Kaiser. I have removed that and opted for Quickmenu. It is MUCH better, smaller and gives you cascading menus like in Windows XP/Vista. It is also freeware. (File attached). Just place all the files in the zip archive to a folder anywhere on your device, create shortcut if you want, but I suggest you place a shortcut in the startup folder.

Yah I've been working on the BT issue since yesterday with no luck
I am using threaded SMS which is why its annoying me that the messages are not appearing in order...
I use WK task in tandem with QuickMenu... I love quick menu, but I still cant figure out how to fix the font sizes... its every context menu not just the tray apps... even my resco context menu is huge and i have to scroll it to do stuff its kind of irritating
Thanks for the suggestions tho, I hope someone has a solution for me, I really like this rom and dont want to change it
Ok So I just discovered that I am completely retarded and forgot to check the "Accept all incoming beams" option in the beam control panel applet... now, how do I go about fixing my SMS messaging issue and chaning the fonts for the menus? They are HUGE!

Yup when I restore my Messages its not in order. I truly believe its because of how PIM restores the Messages. All Received First Then all Sent. So to the Device it IS in order. I've posted this thought in the PIM Backup thread. I don't think they've got it figured out yet. Sorry.

Actually I just finished fixing the PIM Backup issue too.. its kind of a known issue with 6.1 If you restore everything but your messaging DB. Clear your messaging DB in the messaging app. Terminate the messaging app process then run PIM restore... run the messaging app and let it rebuild the threads it seems to work.. Also make sure that you set your regional date settings to what your normally set it to BEFORE you run PIM backup... some people believe that this may also be the issue.... so process is...
1. Flash
2. Restore all of your data using PIM backup EXCEPT messages
3. Open messaging and clear your SMS boxes
4. Terminate the messaging application
5. Do your PIM Restore
6. Open mesaging
Worked for me!
1 more issue to go and thats the large menu font size!

You could use Pim Backup too.
Try Jeyo Mobile Companion. I used that to backup both call history and sms prior to flash any new ROM. The drawback is this software can't backup your MMS. In fact it causes program to crash when there's MMS with attachment in your inbox. Maybe can google around for "Jeyo alternative". Hope you could find one that's suitable for your needs.
PimBackup is for me the most suitable way. Very easy and reliable. Just search for it... I've about 4000 sms on my device, the backup takes app. 10minutes,
the restore about 30min.
Regards,
Markus
ok i'll try pim backup. thx a lot guys
