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.
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

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

PocketCM will also thread your pre-existing SMS.

Sorry, I meant PocketCM (if I remember correctly it was called CMcontacts in the file-system when installed).... But as you can see, some other guys are liking this little free app as well!

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.
I am looking to see if anyone has used or knows of a tool to help clean and organize text messages. I hate having to go through each individual text to delete them, or deleting the entire thread.
I used to use the Palm Threaded app, but it seems to slow my Tilt down as well as run down the battery, but I liked how it had the option to purge sms messages based upon a specific time frame.
I have looked around here, google, and on yahoo for a tool to help clean/organize SMS messages, and haven't really found anything. Anyone have any suggestions?
hi, i dont have outlook and i have also no idea where i can find my sms files.

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
Hi Guys,
Great forum with loads of useful info!
I have a query and was wondering if anyone could help me. I want to transfer my SMS's off my phone to my computer. Is there anyway of doing this (to a txt file etc)?
Is there anyway of having the thread conversation displaying all messages between you and the other person instead of having to press "older", if so, i could "copy all" and paste on to an email?
Any help much appreciated.
bump!
Want to do this too, nobody knows if its possible?

Hi,
there's a software called VITO SMSChat. There you can backup your messages. SMSChat creates a html file. That should be readable with a normal browser but I didn't test it.
Another useful software for backing up text messages is Jeyo Mobile Companion.
CU
check out dashwire.com. not a backup in the sense that you have a file on your computer but in a way better because it can auto run in the background to always stay in sync online. plus it does way more than the sms info
