thanx
are you looking to put them back on the device or just back them up?
If you are looking just to back them up then visit 1800message.com and download their app, it will allow you to back up your sms, mms, pics, call list, etc and store them online!

You will not be able to back-up your messages & contacts on a 2.x Rom and then restore them on a 3.x Rom currently. The Database structure has changed and as of now there isn't a Backup utility that translates from one to the other.

Kyphr is correct. But FYI spb backup considers sms as emails and will back them up.

I am running ROMeos 4.1
Since yesterday, suddenly, SMS text messages cannot be opened!
I receive a new SMS: I see the header, title, sent time, etc: I open it: it is empty!
Also old messages, that I could open earlier, return an empty screen.
No warning, No error messages....
I have NOT installed new software.
Please help

The only thing I remember is that I performed a backup few days earlier.
Using SPB 2.0 backup

Please help

I had this issue on one of my installs. I fixed it by redownloading the ROM fresh and reinstalling it. I didnt however restore a backup. I manually put all my apps and files back in in case it was a registry issue.
im also facing the same problem. The messages when opned are blank

Hey guys just had a couple of questions, I flashed the stock kf1 on both mine and my brothers captivate. I was on stock froyo and he was on stock eclair. i followed nakedninja's guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127209. On my captivate i had used TB to restore my contacts data and on his i restored contacts data using the export feature in the contacts app. I also rooted mine using the guide and i left his unrooted. The problem is both he and I have the same problem where we will receive an incoming call but the phone does nothing but stay at either the home screen or what ever screen that you are currently on and just play the ring tone. There is no option of answering the call. I have to wait until the call ends for it to tell me that I had a missed call by so and so. Then I can manually bring up the dialer and call that person back. Also when I do get the notification at the top for the missed call, usually I can just click on the name and the phone will take me to the call log of that contact and all i have to do is tap the contact and it will make the call. But on gingerbread when i use the notification bar at the top to check the missed call and if I tap that name to call, it will not call that contact it will call the last person that was in the general call log which is weird. any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Anyone?
Can I reinstall maybe just the dialer or just the contacts menu or which ever one that is causing the problem? if so do i just add the apk to my phone and install or is there a different way?
Thanks
hmm.. 124 views and not one reply. if nobody has heard of this problem than can anyone who knows about reinstalling just certain apk's let me know if i can wipe the dialer and contact apks somehow and reinstall them. I am assuming the problem is coming from the apps themselves and thinking if i could just reinstall them without having to re-flash the whole phone that it might fix it.
Thanks

Dunno what the export feature in the contacts app is, but I never restore my contacts. After I sign in to my google account my contacts are being synced automatically. Maybe restoring contacts is the problem.

i think u shd reflash the rom again...clear cache..factory reset..and format internal sd card after and before flash...
just give it a try..might solve ur issue...trying wont hurt
wow sorry guys did not see that you guys had responded. stangri, killer_raj, thanks for your tips I'm going to give that a try and see what happens. i was wondering though, since i already have flashed the gingerbread bootloaders and dont want to flash them again, can i just do a master clear and then reflash just the rom using odin? if so which option do i check in odin? do i uncheck everything and only check one thing? is it the PDA, Phone, or csc option?
Thanks again
If you want to flash with Odin stock KF1 without bootloaders I recommend using this.
Downloaded. thanks prbassplayer.
i will give this a try a little later. a couple of other people are having the same exact problem as i am here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204823 ill let them know about this thread.

and yes restoring data & apps from tibu is cause of forceclose and freeze and lot of times...
not all the time..and when u know what u r doing...so just see after the fresh install everythin works fine..then dont use tibu...
the best n the cleanest..safest way of restroing contats and sms..which i always use...
from contacts..import/export...and export to sd card..u wil hav just one vcf file..having all ur contacts in it..so u can even copy that to ur comp for future use....and restore later when u done flashin..
and smsbackup and restore app by ritesh sahu in market..its free..and it makes a backup on ur internal sd..so copy it to comp or to external sd after taking backup...later after install put that back on internal sd..and install app and restore ur sms...
and i dont use tibu to restore my apps..i always hav the apk's i use ..so i fresh install after the flash...or i download them again from market..so i never had any freeze/forceclose problem ..after any new rom flashin...
replied the same in that otehr thread as well...
I backed up my sms's with LG PC Suite before i installed V10e. But now there's no option of resending the sms's back to the phone, there's only the Phone->PC option.
Any useful tip?

It can't be restored again, I've tried before..
If you want to backup SMS, use any app at the market, that backup to sdcard or backup online.

GoSMS can backup and restore perfectly
Hi,
i flashed my device most frequently, but for that i am in trouble for my office mail client [IBM traveler]. every flash the sever treat my same device as a new device with a new ID. So mail can not be sync and traveler cant get connect with the server.
is there any way that i can keep the android id same ? even i flashed different ROMs ? pls let me know cz i am stuck in same rom for a moment due to this issue
[i.e Device ID: Android_861579df9dca07ca ]
thanks/ toufiq
I think titanium backup should help in this case.. There has been similar issues for me with mail exchange sync and when I open titanium back on the new rom, it says Id changed and restore to previous and all works fine..
