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.

Have you installed the Nexus S usb drivers?
MIUI is developed using CM7, and CM7 is developed using Nexus S rom. So you need Nexus S driver.

[Q] no dialer screen after flashing stock gingerbread kf1 and other problems

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...

How do you back up your device?

Good Evening,
I have recently started flashing my device with different ROMs however I am getting annoyed at having to keep setting the contacts back up again and facebook and apps etc etc. Is there a piece of software other than windows phone device manager that people use to back up their HD7's?
I do have Windows phone device manager but I just keep getting an error message of "an unexpected error occured"
Thanks in Advance

Unfortunately not... I wish there was some software program that did do this for you!
If you flash a rom that's running an 8779 build you can save your contacts full data to the SIM, their number, pic, email, etc and then just restore them with the click of one button after flashing. It's nice!
This is the easiest method to restore data and apps after flashing:

[Q][Solved] Urgent Help Can´t send SMS

Hello Everybody!
My Girlfriend has a Galaxy S3 Mini I8190 and I rooted her phone to uninstall all the Google and Samsung bloatware with AppMaster.
Unfortunately now she can´t send SMS anymore. They just stay in "sending" and don´t go out. I guess it´s because I deleted also Samsung Push App. Usually I Backup the deleted apps. Since I never had a problem after deleting sysapps I didn´t save them this time.
Please tell me which SysApps are needed to send SMS and I also need someone to make me this Apps available to download since I didn´t make a backup.
your help is highly appreciated, have a nice day and thanks a lot.
P.s: I just saw that I also dont have samsung push, so its probably not that.

have you tried factory reset that should sort it & then go on from there, but be a little more careful this time...

solved

Thanks for the reply, I could solve it by myself. It wasn´t caused by any application I uninstalled but by disabling the messaging app with the autostart manager.
