Hi guyz, recently I updated my rom version to 2.53.707.4... Before that I backup all my SMS and other stuffs using PPCPimBackupV2.8.. I had a folder called saved SMS in the previous version, so when I backup I saved all the massages in that folder too..
So after flashing I restore everything but when I got to massages through start and in the drop down menu I couldn't see the saved folder.. Previously we can juz go to all massages and view all the folders and even create a new folder but with the new rom I couldnt do so..
So is there any fix for it? Thanks in advance..

Can anyone help::
I have hard reset my device and re installed all my software, just got it perfect and discovered I have lost 1 file. I backed up the device before resetting, so the file I need should be in the backup.stg
I could backup now, restore the old one, save the files and restore my new setup, but seems like a long way around, Is there any software to 'open' the *.stg file so I can extract the file I want??
Thanks

found using this google search
http://www.google.dk/search?q=backup.stg+tool&ie=UTF-8&hl=da&btnG=Google-søgning
Hmmm..
Perhaps I should have done that myself
Thanks very much my problem is now solved.
so it works ok that tool or
another one ?
what about if the backup is made as something other then a full backup ?
Not sure about incremental backups, but the util is very good.
You just open the STG file and can see all the contents in a properly structured manner. Getting files out of it is easy , simply copy and paste.
I took me about 1 minute to find and extract the file I was after.
Saved me a lot of time and messing with backups and restores...

Hi everyone,
I'm going to be flashing the myHero or Cyanognen ROM on my HTC Magic (32A) soon and I was wondering, before I do that, how would I backup the default ringtones/alerts/alarms on the original ROM that came on my phone? I'd like to keep all my sound notifications to be the same whenever I flash the new ROM, just because I've grown used to them now and like them.
your answer Sashimi
it saves or can save tons of settings.
if you need more help with this send me a PM
Create a folder structure like this in your SD card:
\media\audio\ringtones
Copy the ringtones in there, and they will automatically be availble when you flash another rom.
You can do the same thing for \media\audio\notifications and \media\audio\alarms.
You can get the stock ones from \system\media\audio\ringtones. I would use Astro to do the file copy (from Android Market)
Thanks guys! Appreciate the help a lot.
Hi All
Spent a while trying to figure out how to transfer the text messages I had on my X1 over to my X10 and thought i would post how I did this as I couldn't seem to find anything in the X10 section of the forum so here goes.
So install and run SMS exporter 0.5 (for WM) - cant remember how I found it but either google or pm me. This creates an xml file which you can copy over to your pc.
Go to the android market and download and install SMS Backup & Restore.
Now I already had a load of new text messages on my X10 so I did a restore from my X10 and copied the xml file over to my pc (it was in a folder on the X10 called SMSBackupRestore).
I edited the xml in notepad and compile the two files together from my X1 and X10. Saved this file and copied back over to my X10 (to the same directory i copied the file from).
Then using SMS Backup & Restore i restored the texts back to my x10 using the function to remove duplicates.
Too easy.
Like I said pm me if you have any problems and I hope this helps a few people out there, or at least saves you some time googling
am surprised no one has replied here, there you go hope it helps

I'm sending you PM also!!
I'm searching for those people who have root their phones.. if you are the guy and willing to help me... please email me... I just need your help for about 10mins only... PLZ
ANYONE root his phone already? I need Help...
Very easy...
Steps: You need to
1. root your phone first..
2. install ASTRO File Manager (by metago) or other else
3. install SMS Backup & Restore created by Ritesh Sahu
4. backup all your messages by using SMS Backup & Restore and name the backup file as 1.xml
5. using ASTRO, go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ and you will see a db file called mmssms.db (it is the file where all your messages stored in the phone)
6. copy the mmssms.db to your sd card (anywhere, as long as you can remember where it is)
7. copy the MMSSMS.DB (my db file, will be sent to you later if you can help) and paste it in the /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/
8. then go to messaging, check if my messages can be shown at there
9. if yes, please backup it by using SMS Backup & Restore and name the backup file as 2.xml
10. then by using ASTRO file manager, go to /mnt/sdcard/SMSBackupRestore, you will see 2 xml files, (1.xml & 2.xml)
11. please send the 2.xml file to me, thank you.
12. Recovery! go to messaging, delete all messages (my messages), then restore it by using SMS Backup & Restore, choose 1.xml
13. If failed, go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/, replace the db file by your own mmssms.db file which is stated in step 6...
Anyone can help me?
Some of the messages inside are my beloved messages. I wanna keep it..
if you can help, add me in Facebook (Kh Coon)
or reply me at here...
EDIT: Sure someone will help.
to backup you sms messages you don't need root afaik, just download the app (SMS Backup & Restore from Ritesh Sahu) from the market and give it a go.
I've used this app before and as long as you install it on your new phone you will be able to restore them all.
But.. my messages stored in the form of db file (mmssms.db)
SMS backup & restore can't open it...
right, so you're talking also about mms messages.
I never send any mms, so am afraid I can't help you any further, maybe you can find a similar app for backing up mms in the market?

merging is a bit difficult
open the whats app folder then copy all files from ech folder then paste in appropriate folder
for exanple
copy all files from backup folder (it is found in whatsapp folder) from one of the bavckups and then paste it in other backup folder
if u have a doubt ask me
