I am not sure if it's possible unlike nokia to store messages in Memory card but you can use a backup program like PIM Backup which takes backup of ur messages and contacts and later restore it. It's a very small utility and create backups in zip format.
Use Microsoft My Phone, this gives you the option of backing up all txt mgs on line, then you can restore all of them after a hard reset.

Hi
Just wanted to know if a backup was performed by selecting all data, would it save all the programs stored in storage memory too also my text messages and what else?
The "All data" option of xBackup will backup all data in volatile RAM; since RAM is further divided into program and storage portions, both program and storage data will be backed up. To make is easy to remember, xBackup backs up everything that you'd lose if you do a hard reset.
Storage and Storage Card data are not backed up.
Hope that helps.
I made a backup with Xbackup,
So you tell me, if I perform a hard reset, xbackup can place all my settings, docs and programs back???
that's great news !!!
Yes, that's what xBackup is meant for. 8)
On a few ocassions when newly-installed software causes problems with my Mini, I will do a hard reset and restore from xBackup.
I used to use xbackup for my Magciain and had been able to restore all my programs and data from a hard reset.
But it recently failed me, twice! When I needed it after a hard reset, it gave me an error message and said the backup is not for this machine. Maybe it was due to the softwares I installed but I don't care. Now I've switched to Sprite Backup which is much much faster, takes up half the storage space and much more reliable. Looking back, xbackup is just crappy.
I had just the opposite experience: I switched from Sprite Backup back to xBackup.
No doubt Sprite Backup is much faster and allows me to select what I would like to backup or restore, but this caused me to revert to xBackup:
1. Installed errant software, ending up with lots of DLLs etc in the Windows folder.
2. Decided to restore with Sprite Backup with an image prior to the software installation.
3. Still saw old DLLs in the Windows folder.
I concluded then that Sprite Backup didn't restore cleanly; the same scenario with xBackup worked wonderfully; no old DLLs.
Besides, I kept losing my custom ringtones and Contact ID photos (I am using a Mini) whenever I restored from Sprite Backup. xBackup works for me.

You get this error message with Activesync restore if your Regional Settings are different. e.g. you backed up while set to the UK but are trying to restore on machine with the default USA setting. It will also give this error if the OS is a different version (e.g you applied a firmware upgrade). Because of this, it's worth indicating the region and firmware level in the backup filename for future reference.
Maybe xbackup is the same? Try changing the region before you restore.

try to use pim backup.....try to search.....
Use SpB Backup. Specify custom backup and choose PIM email etc and it will back up only contacts SMS, email etc. Then you can choose where to put the backup, choose storage card.
The good thing about SpB Backup is that is creates an executable backup file and if you later flash your PDA like I do constantly with these new ROMs you just double click the exe and it will re install all your contacts and emails.
The problem with PIM backup utility is that once you flash your device you actually need the PIM backup program installed before you can use the backed up data, not so with spb backup.

yeah, that is correct. But for most cases, almost all cooked ROM are equipt with pimbackup so no need to install it right? it's quite handy and doesn't eat up resources or create large file.
On the contrary with SpB Backup, I would not recomment to use it if your going to reflash your unit to a new ROM(unless it's just a plain HR then go ahead and use it). Since every ROM is different, SpB Backup may cause unstable condition and eventualy crashes the unit forcing you to do another HR or even reflash.
I refreshed my PC with a new operating system, but when I tried to connect HD2 with outlook to sync, I lost all calendar entries on HD2. Now, I have earlyer backups (I copied everything from card and phone) and now, is there any way to copy calendar files fron backup on hdd (on pc) to restore calendar on HD2?
Thanks in advance.
In the root of the device is a file pim.vol. It containts addresses, calendar data, etc. Backup you old pim.vol. Put the old file back. See if it works. Use pim backup to backup the calendar data. Put the original pim.vol back. Probably reboot. Use pim backup to restore any data you need.
I realized only today, that perhaps from December, many apps, but not all, do not save longer their data in the memory space assigned to them by Android in the internal SD.
For example, if I make a save with Titanium Backup, I get a msg type "insufficient disk space, broken up" or if I try a backup of efs and imei with EFSBackup, do not get any error, but in designated folders there is no file.
If within the folder where Wathsapp saves its crypt files, these are firm in December, although I have old messages with visible and usable images.
ColorNote instead saves its backup regularly.
The apps are endless, everyone has his own, and so I'm not here to make the list. I would just try to understand the reason for this serious anomaly.
Of course I have the root and apps are allowed.
Help please. . .
Today I upgraded to Nougat. I restored my SMS messages from a Titanium backup after a fresh install but then didn't realize what I was doing so I wiped my phone after that. Is there any way to get SMS messages back? Are they backed up with Google somewhere? Please help I had a backup but when I wiped my phone it was gone
هلاو
If it wiped the Titanium Backup folder on your Internal Storage then they are gone.
That's why I always backup my Internal Storage to my Linux box so that I always have a copy somewhere other than the Phone.
And on a key chain flash drive. Bc things can go wrong
