I want to recover/back up messages to my computer from my dark X1 (lcd flex cable damaged no picture) but not sure how do I do it ?
I did sync everything possible from the phone using MS activesync to my laptop 's outlook and I get contacts, calendar, notes etc. but my messages are not there. On the phone outlook had a separate folder with messages. DOes the Activesync omit the messages folder ?
I chose to sync "all" in the time bracket options for email.
Is there any other way to get my messages back ?
I have asked this question in a couple of other related threads, no answer so far.
Anyways I know activesync won't copy the messages. I could use PIM if I had a functional phone but this X1 unfortunately is with screen-off mode
Anyone knows a way to get sms back from PC ?

Thanks ✟
Moving to Q&A
I can provide a solution to this: use PIM backup through the program called "My mobiler" that allows to use the phone through PC
(somebody else suggested this in another thread)

Hi all, I had to hard reset my XdaIIi, but I had previously set the permanent save on my contacts, but when it finished setting up I tried to retrieve the contacts but it didnt work
I've also had the phone syncronised with my PC and have the past three partnerships still on it, is there anyway I can retrieve my contacts?
thanks
Whenever I've done a hard reset of my stuff, I've just done an ActiveSync before resetting it or flashing the ROM... When I've got my phone back to working order again on a fresh installation, I've just ActiveSynced again, and bingo - all my contacts, files, calendar, AvantGo files have appeared with no problem.
To do that, I've just set up a new full relationship, and ActiveSync has taken care of the rest. The only thing I've had to backup myself has been my SMSes... Of course, if you didn't have your Contacts selected as one of the things to synchronise with your PC every time you synced, you're straight outta luck.
Hi rmurph17,
:lol: you are not straight outta luck :lol:
Do the following if u have already Synced your XDA with outlook before resetting:
1. Delete all your partnerships from your PC's ActiveSync without pluging the XDA
2. Once deleted all partnerships, put ur XDA on cradle which is already connected to PC
3. PC will ask for a new partnership, tell it what do u want to sync and from where & which account e.g. Outlook
It will start syncing once it made the partnership.
GoodLuck

... So basically, what I said (see my original reply: " I've just ActiveSynced again, and bingo - all my contacts, files, calendar, AvantGo files have appeared with no problem") - I assumed you'd tried deleting your old ActiveSync partnerships from your PC via the ActiveSync software before attempting to resync again.
Have problem with contacts
I had use Nokia 9210i and use Outlook + plaxo (plaxo.com) to manager contacts.
I have around 10.000 contacts with full detail (numbers, email, website, extra information)
Now I change to XDA mini S and discovered that they can not do the same thing as N9210i.
Just about one forth of my contacts Syns from PC, the Programe Memory of XDA is full.
I am asking many person, searching site to site but no one have same problem.
Everyone, who have experien, please advice me:
1. Can I store the contacts file in SD card but not on the fone (Programe Memory)
2. if 1 not avaiable, Can I expand Program Memory more than 64M?
Thank you so much for help me.
Hi longpt,
I think in your situation u should better give a try to contact Microsoft.

by the way r u using Wallaby (XDA 1) ?
I have an AT&T tilt. It seems like whenever I get an email and I check it on my Tilt, if I move that email from the inbox into its appropriate folder that later on I notice the email is marked as unread again.
If I leave it in the inbox this doesn't happen.
As an example, in the morning when I get up, I check all my email on my phone and then move them into the appropriate folder. But by the time I get to work and check my email on the computer I see that all the folders that I moved the emails too are bold and show that there is an unread message in them. When I check those folders I see the the unread emails are the ones I checked on my phone earlier in the morning and that I already read them.
This is probably something really simple, but it's annoying and I don't know how to fix it. I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me out. Thanks!
BTT
Anyone have any idea on how to fix this? Thanks!
Please? Anyone?
(Exchange) It's because in the AS settings you chose to have your desktop overide your device. This is popular because on older model ppc's with volatile memory if your device died you'd lose evrything when you resync'd via wireless sync with the device overiding the desktop.
(Hotmail, Yahoo, etc...) This also happens because the mail host overides the device. The only way to make the email stop is to perform the read on the host account site.
Thanks a lot for the explanation. That makes sense.
Ok, so now I have duplicate contacts of everyone in outlook cause I guess I didn't delete my old device before I sync my phone that has new ROM on it. How do I get rid of these duplicates in outlook and on phone?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The only way I know of is to delete the duplicates one at a time from one device (easier to do this on the PC) and then re-sync. Hope you don't have too many.
UGH, thx man!
Take a look at this free apps: http://www.vaita.com/ODIR.asp
sktools has an option of deleting all the duplicate contacts
Found a nice one over at Coolsmartphone forum...

the ODIR works perfectly for me, as already recommended by jack leung:

silly & stupid M$ and its products: WM - activesync - outlook
you will not got this stupid behavior by using Nokia PC Suite, and in addition you'll get more complete and powerful settings
(how many settings you can change in activesync?)
Duplicate Remover
Have a look at Clone Remover, it is utility to find duplicate files, mails, folders and to remove duplicate files on Windows and Vista. This program is free. duplicate outlook
Duplicate File Finder
Try this freeware Fast Duplicate File Finder by MindGems inc.
This software worked for me - dublicatefilesdeleter.com
Many users are reporting they then get duplicate contacts and I'm one of them. I've been using this Mac outlook and encountered same problem. A total headache as I have hundreds even thousand of contacts duplicated.,.you can imagine how frustrating it was. This deal breaker for me. Until I found Scrubly Duplicate Remover.I really need this for life. This is also been used by my friends and family. I'm very thankful of having this tool. I think you should also try this. Hope it helps
Oh no... I don't know what I did but I did something wrong as I lost all my calendar entries, phone numbers and tasks etc.
I installed a new Windows XP version on my desktop and then Activesync, plugged my HTC TytnII to the USB-cable and pressed OK to everything (I know, I was too tired) and I think I accidentally DELETED the old partnership.
Now I'm searching for an old version of the Outlook.pst (which SHOULD? contain all the calendar and contact data?) from my PC with RecoverMyFiles application, but is there a way to search the HTC TytnII for some remains of the data?
I simply depend on my contacts, calendar entries and tasks... lots of business related material in them Please help in any way you can.
My setup is:
work laptop, xp / outlook 2007
home vista / outlook 2007
work phone: nokia E71
enjoying: my tilt
The thing is, I recently started flashing, oh yes
I used pimbackup, myphone, and even googlesync, to have all of my data (contacts and calendar) available in all of the above mentioned devices, and failed miserably.
Deletions, duplicates, you name it, I had it...
I started reading, I mean really reading the forum, and I'm still doing it, but so far no luck.
Does anyone has an idea what would be the smartest way to ensure all of my data safe and synced in all of the above mentioned devices?
Or, please overlook my noobness, and just point me in the direction of the right thread?
TIA

anybody outhere?
what I would do is this. DELETE all your contacts from your phone and your Outlook contacts. Then delete all your SMS. Hide your SIM contacts. Then use Pim Backup. Then after it restores everything you will have one copy. Then resync with your comp and store all the new info to your comp. Ideally PIM Backup is best used only for storing SMS, let active sync do the rest. Just in case let pim backup store all your contacts, but when restoring only select to restore SMS so you dont have duplicate contacts.
thank you, I'll give it a try.
