hello people,
i dont know if im in the right place so please bear with me as im new.
i have a magician, by mistake it has been hard reset 2-3 times hence i loose all the sms's, is there a software which can save all my sms's on sd card so i can replace them later?
any help would be appreciated.
thanks.
the is one exe file called ppcpimbackup.exe you can use it backup all your sms to storage card. and copy it back when ever required. Now from where you can get it you need to search and find it. I have used it long ago.
I have noticed that when I flash the blackstone I lose all my messages...so I supposed they're saved on the phone itself. Is there a way to make the blackstone save them on the SIM or on the MicroSD card??
Did you use PIMbackup?

what?
Sorry for the confusion caused by typo error. I was asking if you had use PIMBackup to back up before flashing a new ROM, and restore it after the flashing?
no...isn't there another way like forcing the cell phone to save the messages on the microSD? Whare I can retrieve PIMBackup anyway?
Hi all,
Since MS Myphone service is not working with WP7 for backing up the short messages, is there any way or a software to backup all contacts, SMS, and others. Most importantly SMS. How can I get a backup for SMS messages.??
Thanks a lot for any advice in advance..
Does anybody know where the sms are stored in file system? If we knew this maybe we could just backup those files via Touchxperience file explorer (Beta).
I posted in another thread about this, because I was also looking for a way to backup my messages. I didn't really find a "real" way. But what I found is, in my opinion, better than nothing. I like to keep my SMSs for sentimental reasons, so if you only want to be able to read them again in the future, I have a theory of how to do so. I took my SD card out of my HD2 and booted WP7, all of my contacts, messages, account info, was gone. I put the SD back in and it was all back to normal. So, I assume that if you back up your SD card with EASEUS partition manager (I think there is a tutorial on this in the dual booting android and wp7 thread) you can keep the backup on your computer and save it for later. I haven't actually tried this, but because nobody seems to be working on this, I thought it might be worth mentioning.

It's true.
Works fine for me. I use it to backup apps, however.
Good post. It never hurts to do a backup. But it doesn't help when you upgrade the build, all messages etc will be lost.
Edit; Looked at easeus partition manager and it seemed that the only way to copy a disk partition is to create a new partition on your hard disk, thus erasing the whole hard disk! How do you do it Domenukk?
Also I may be wrong about losing all data when upgrading eg to nodo. If this is possible to do a backup, after upgrading the ROM the backed up sdcard could be re-inserted, it might work! Dont know
Edit 2; found thread titled "[Q] Backing up or Imaging SD card partitions" which explains how to backup to hard disk using ease-us. Another poster suggests using a usb stick or external hard drive instead of precious internal one.
a while ago there were rumurs of Myphone for WP7
http://wmpoweruser.com/my-phone-for-windows-phone-7-pictured/
Has there been any updates?
Right now this is the only thing that is preventiong me from making my HD2 with WP7 my main phone.
you could use "copy and paste" to copy each sms message to Office, then put the file in Dropbox and retrieve on your laptop.
I have tried this and only the message gets copied, not the sender or date/time. you would have to add this for every text in Office
It is useful though for important stuff.
If you download apps via Zune to your phone, they are remembered when you change your ROM, though doesn't work for XApps.
Contacts- saved to sim or synched via windows live account.
Come on thebranded, dive in
hi, its going to be stored somewhere, i backup my programs data files, even after a reflash and upgrade i can use the backups to restore the data for the apps, works great for things like petrol usage, fitness programs etc
anyhow, the SMS files must be located somewhere on the card as well, why dont we get to gether, get a sms message and record the time stamp, turn off the phone and then search the phone looking for files edited at that time stamp
i thnk you can just use zune and sync it

as i said, it doesnt backup SMS messages. If you were about to update the device it would do it, but we cant, and we probably shouldnt even if we could.

I am really at the end of my tether here - I would really appreciate some help.
I want to factory reset my phone. Before I do I want to do a thoroughly comprehensive backup of all the whatsapp data on my phone (call logs/media/chats etc.).
I installed whatsapp. Added an SD card to the phone months later.
I specifically prefer doing local backups using my computer or SD card only.
How can I check that whatsapp is indeed backing up chats to the sd card. If t is not - can I make it do this somehow.
If not - whats the best way to get this all done as a local backup please.

Titanium backup man.
Nothing beats it.
I understand what you're saying.
But I need to understand the app and how to manage this in the future.
Is there a way to check if whatsapp is actually making local backups to my SD card?
If not - how can I make it do this.
It shouldn't be so hard - that I am forced to use cloud backup over local backups.
Hi, I have recently purchased my Lumia 950. Before activating whatsapp, I want to know if I save my whatsapp backup on sd card from my android, will I be able to restore it on my Lumia 950 whatsapp.
Thanks and Regards.
That way i think u cannot save it, but possibly u may archive everything to the server, and then open it up on ur new Lumia. Congrats on the purchase btw.
I've tried to do this too, but on my Nexus 5 i don't have SD slot.
as far as i understand, you need to take backup on SD , than put the SD on 950 and install Whatsapp.
it should find the backup automatically
U can archive everything to WhatsApp servers.
