I'm not sure exactly how or when this happened... but I recently did a hard reset and a restore, I cannot seem to go to my inbox or even send sms from my contacts list.
The icon is still on the start menu but it does nothing.
any ideas?
thanks

Are you using sprite backup?
Try to upgrade the backup software.
i just use the backup utility of active sync.
i'll look into sprite backup thanks.
i ended up hard resetting and just reinstalling from scratch.
too about an hour and a half to reconficgure and resetup my phone.
You can solve this issue..
Just restore your old backup, install Sprite Backup 3 (make sure its not older than version 3) and backup your device using Sprite Backup.
Now, hard reset your device & install Sprite backup, then restore ONLY the SMS messages.
It shall work like a charm 8)
It happened the same to me but after making a backup. I just lost the access to my inbox and tried to send an SMS in the contact itself but noting. Not even receive them. Anyone can help so i cant have to install averything over again. My backup was just perfect ..but then this happened after restoring
Never use Sprite Backup earlier than version 3
I used the XBackup that comes in windows...
Imagination, what backup software you've used to make the backup ?
This case happens when you restore a backup, so did you make a restore?
Yes it hapened after i made a restore. I used Xbackup (the app thats already intaled in windows). I used it for the backup and for the restore. I made restores before and this doesn't happened. But this time i lost the inbox and sms.
aha, seems your SMS reception is dead now!
It happened to me once, when I did a restore. I was forced to hard reset my device
but before the reset, I backed up the entire device using sprite backup, and then I did a hard reset, installed Sprite Backup 3, then restored ONLY the SMS databases. It worked!
But for you, you are not willing to re-install your applications!
I saw a program that fixes this problem. It clears the SMS databases.
after that, you can restore only the SMS part of the backup.
I guess its named SMS CLEAR...
If I find it, I'll send it to you, dude :wink:
Ok thanks. I will try to find it. Hope it works. I will try sprite backup too. thanks
Your most welcome, dude
here I found it, its name CleanMail !
It fixes all the database corruptions in your SMS & wipe all emails & SMS messages, so be sure you have backup of all these databases.
you can get it from here:

First of all thank ezzkht for ur help. I realy thought tha this app will working after reading the forum. But...did't ddid the tric...after udse the app the in box and sms still does't worked. The only improvment that made was appearing in inbox You have a new SMS message, but no luck trying to open. After that i reeintaled the backup and used the app again but still no luck. I have to make an hard reset in the week end and reeinstall all over again and i will use a third party software for backing up. Thanks for the help
Oh am sorry to hear that
Well, its better to do a hard reset, since it seems that SMS databases are hardly damaged!
I advice you to install Sprite Backup 3.. its the best backup software ever!
I wish it will work out smoothly with you.
Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeerz :lol:
Solution for missing Inbox SMS Folder (and service)
Hello! I managed a solution to recover the the missing Inbox SMS Folder (and service) from a recovery by ActiveSync. The problem is that when we restore there is an active program that uses that service and therefore it cannot be restored. In my last try I unistalled Webis Mail, unchecked everything in "Today" and made a soft reset. Don't run the Outlook in the PC, if you use Jeyo Mobile Extender because this program acesses the SMS folder in the PDA. Do a restore, and when it finishes it'a all OK again. I was already preparing myself to do a Hard Reset to use SMS again! :lol: By the way what's the best ROM for Window 2003SE ? Thanks.
hi,
only a question:
the xbackup software makes a complete backup of the s100 system, including installed software information and windows registry ?
thank's
don't know what an S100 is (is it another name for the magician?), but on my device, it completely restores the device exactly how it was (except after it restores, i have no wallpaper... but that isn't exactly hard to fix).
the only problem i've ever had is i have to reinstall voice command. other than that, everything is restored perfectly.
Get a copy of sprite backup, it's much much more capable than xbackup. Not free, but trial is available.
Cheers, M
the problem of xbackup is that it takes too long to back up and restore.
Never used xbackup before to backup everything but if it works, hey that's great. I personally prefer Sprite Backup because I can schedule my backup runs every morning
another question
hello,
the activesync backup is capable to make a backup (and restore) including all data in the ram (files, registry, configuration...) ??
thank's
looks like it, though I encountered serious probs. when restoring. All contacts, appointments etc. so all pim data couldn't be restored because something was in use. I guess the databases are locked by either Act.Sync itself or poutlook. After restoring the data I tried to synchronize & then it really screwed up: the device id for Act.Sync is the same after the restore so AS happily deleted all the missing pim data from outlook on my PC since it wasn't present on my magician anymore (marked as 'removed' probably) it really sucks when that happens. Had to hard-reset, install everything again & at work I sync'd again from scratch & got almost everything back. So Sprite is my program, it can restore everything & I see no use in a backup/restore option which have me to hard-reset to get my pim's back. Exit M$ in this case (again).

Look at oltp's post for the answer....you need to use a third party backup software like Sprite
thank's to everybody.
i'm trying to download a trial version of sprite backup from pocketgear or handango, but the only existing options is the buy of them.
don't exists a trial version of sprite ?
regards
Buy it ..it's worth every penny..I've already done 3 hard resets in the past three days to test out some drivers and dodgy software but everytime, I easily restored everything using my previous day's backup.
I did find a trial version, can't remember where. version number is 2.1.4 not the most recent one, so I'm thinking of buying the latest version.

this is the trial version i think :?
oops may want to read this first though
http://www.spritesoftware.com/support/sprite_backup_version_history.html
but with sprite backup, if you do a hard reset, don't you have to reinstall it, then do a restore?
if that's the case, that's pretty lame if you ask me
you have the option to save your backup as an .exe file so in the case of a hard reset, all you do is to run the backup file and 2 minutes later, everything is restored.
Nope it can create selfextracting backups
i usually use activesync to backup and restore my xdaII. but yesterday, i hard reset my xda due to some reasons, but when i tried to restore it back, there are alot of files that acitvesync cant restore; like databases, registry, etc.. now im left with corrupted files in my himalaya. im thinking of installing everything over again.
im just wondering what is the best program for backup and restoring?
thanks...
try and use spb backup
Sprite backup

I use Sprite backup, its not free but i swear by it, you have the option to back up everything. You do a hard reset, install Sprite backup, start the software, choose restore and it'll restore your HD2 exactly to how it was when you performed the back up. Brilliant piece of software, i've used it many times on my HD2 and Xperia x2. Get it!
Downloading Sprite backup now
With sprite backup, you don't even need to install it to recover a backup, you can just execute the backup.exe (self executable) file.
Never used Sprite backup but have used SPB Backup for 3 years now. It is very, very good.
The backup file is self executable. Device restored in minutes.
Cheers

PIM Backup doesn't backup software, does it?
haha i nv notice he want to backup software but software need to backup??
i need we can just install back?
I tried SPB, I've used it for years on my PDA's so when I backed up my HD2, everything looked like it backed up ok. Had to hard reset the HD2 but didn't think much about it because I had a back up exe. Ran the exe twice and nothing changed. Do you have to turn off HT sense in order for the back up to work properly?
Thanks for any insight you can provide

Hello all I have a HTC Touch HD. A few weeks ago the "Messenging" application became unresponsive. I tried the googled solution of deleting the inbox.something folder but I still could not access "Messenging".
So I decided to do a hard reset and restore my contents with Sprite Backup.
My Sprite Backup is 6.2.3 build 2319. My OS is Windows Mobile 6.1.
So the restore went well - everything seems to be back, right down to the call log and even the custom words in the auto-complete function.
But my SMSes all gone. As were my email settings. This is very strange to me because I used to be able to restore everything including the SMSes when I used Sprite Backup on my old Dopod 838Pro. I have tried two backup files but still the same problem. I had specified the backup file to backup everything, which is the default anyway.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
