[Q] How to delete 4500 sms?!! - Android Software Development

Hy, I have a big problem: I have 4500 sms on my smartphone (HD2), and i can't delete all my messeges D:
I try with chomp sms,sms backup and restore, but there is nothing to do D:
When I try to delete,my HD2 continue to work,but don't delete messages :/ It work,and work and work for too hours,but no messages are delete!!

Wow, I wonder what is happening? Can you delete in smaller "chunks"? Almost sounds like the SMS thread is getting choked.
Have you tried to suspend the SMS Service and then delete? Worth a try.
Is there a menu item to transfer the messages to SD Card and them wipe them out from there?
I could always write something, but it would take me some time since I"m in the middle of other projects (one of them being SMS related LOL).

Idk if this will work but handcent application has force delete in the application. Just an idea.

You can just delete the dialer Memory in settings apps...

If it has adb like a regular android device, then do this from a windows cmd prompt:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd data/data/com.*.*.telephony/databases
rm telephony.db
rm mmssms.db
exit
adb reboot

Been awhile sense I ran android on my hd2 but try booting back into windows and delete them from there and then reload android. This is of course if you are running dual boot. Could be wrong though been known to happen a time or to lol

Make sure the messages are not "locked" i couldnt delete a few messages because i realized id locked them in.

Deleted "accounts and sync" in my settings

After I rooted my vibrant to get lag fix, I decided to get titanium backup to remove some bloatware. Like the IDIOT I am I deleted the accounts and sync. I can turn sync on with my stock android widget so my calendar and emails sync. But it has been erased from my settings, and force closes every time I try to open it. Can anyone help me!! PLEASE!!!
I think this is what i'm missing
I need to get this " com.android.providers.subcribedfeeds " when I look in my system/app folder I still see the account and sync still there even though I used titanium backup to remove it. Then when I look in setting/manage application "com.android.providers.subcribedfeeds " is there ready to be unistalled. This was never there before and it has a size of " 0kb "
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?r1mrbtsep2k84kb
Figure out how to push it to /system/apps on your own (hint: use: ADB or Root Explorer). I uploaded this a while back.
XDA is the best
Thank you so much i used root explorer and it works as good as new. This place is the best.
Edit: got the zip opened on my computer and got the sets of files but when I tendered then from sd card to system/apps using root explorer, the files vanish and don't show up anywhere not even the sd card
I too made the same mistake by deleting the file. I downloaded the file from the link onto my phone but when I extract the .zip file using root explorer there's nothing in it
sorry tobring an old thread up..
so i goofed up and deleted acct and sync as well.. does this prevent my phone from mounting up via USB. i cant seem to mount it at all now...
any help is appreciated.
phone is rooted and i deleted with titanium backup...

i did. problem is i cant DL root explorer since i cannot connect to the market due to acct and sync unable to perform its function.
i've got the zip for media share. i was wondering if there's a short cut to just mount the phone and drag the files over?

you can try to move it using Terminal Emulator commands.
Gotta research those cmds though... I don't know them.

I sent you a pm. go read it.
thanks buddy, im trying to push the acctandsync.apk back via adb
i get this error message
[INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]
any ideas?
I think I did the same thing
I just so noticed that on titanium backup that this was deleted with out a backup. I do not remember deleting this but I guess I did. I am unable to get to access accounts and synchronization on settings. In every other respects my phone works just fine
Here is what I did to trouble shoot, I did not use adb, every time I attempt to set it up I never get it right. I did however get an apk from a Samsung Galaxy sII dump on this forum. I used root explorer to copy it into the system/apps folder I gave it the right permissions and restarted my phone. I still do not have this option in TB nor in setting. I am able to get notification via yahoo mail client however. I just would really like to get this back if possible.
I am not sure if this helps but I have a Samsung Galaxy Exhibit II 4g. Sad to say there is no Nandroid or CWM so that is out of the question...
Thanks for taking the time to read this

[Q] Messages contect icons/pics

After searching for awhile I can't find anything related to this in Mytouch section.
First off my phone
Stock ROM 2.2.1
Rooted S-OFF
Kernel Faux123 0.8.6 LV #98(no issues with lock screen or anything at all! )
Recovery 2.5.1.2
And my problem is this:
Everytime I do Fix Permissions from recovery it messes my contact icons/pics only in the Messages app. The pictures are still there they even show when someone calls and in the contact list. However in the Messages app I get the default pic icon like there isn't one assigned to the contact. The only solution I have found is to delete my google and facebook accounts then add them and resync and relink everything. I have even tried using Titanium Backup Pro version and it just restores old messages. Is anyone else having this issue or know easier fix for it.
Thanks!
I'm having the same issue and haven't been able to figure out why it does this...
Yeah sucks guess ill keep doing what I'm doing

Ok so I just ran fix_permissions and after my reboot i lost all my messaging contact pictures and some of my contact pictures. But as this is NOT a problem caused by the kernel but still a problem that occurs as part of the, dicking around with your file system territory, heres a fix. Before you flash a new Kernel version or fix_permissions run a titanium back up on everything and if a problem occurs restore the following Via Titanium All are in green text:
[CONTACTS/CALLS] Contacts Storage
[SMS/MMS/APN] Dialer Storage
[SMS/MMS PREFS] Messages

Using ADB to wipe sms/mms messages

I accidentally restored more than 10k + sms/mms messages using SMSBackup +
Obviously the phone is not responsive any longer except to ADB commands. That is, I can't open the messaging app, or titanium or anything else.
I just want to erase ALL sms/mms data using ADB so that I don't have to wipe my SD card. Does anyone know where they are stored?
adb shell and su are working fine, the phone is rooted
just need to know what to rm in there...
Just give your phone about 15 minutes to set up. I know after restoring 1k messages, my vibrant can become slow/unresponsive for a minute or two.

[Q] Backup SMS and Call Logs between Android and WP7

Hi all!
There is a way to backup text messages and, if possible, call logs, between Android and WP7? I'm actually keeping these things backupped in Gmail with SMS Backup + for android, but i dunno any Wp7 alternatives.
Can you please help me to find a solution?
Thanks in advance,

theres this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448197
that's fine for backup and restore of text messages and contacts.
it doesn't capture call logs tho, restore is fairly easy, but if you must setup and sync all your accounts first, then restore the backup, then delete facebook (if you use it) then restart and setup facebook again.
for some reason my contacts get all messed up if I don't delete and resync my FB contacts when importing backups
If your looking to copy from android to WP7 etc then that might be an issue, if you can edit the vol files created I guess you could then import them in to WP7 but ive looked at the files and you would need a special program to do it also note that MMS messages lose there content, the message is still there but no content. perhaps that's something that can be fixed in future versions as I think the chap who made it is still trying to work out how WP7 stores it all.

How to backup/restore text messages?

I tried SMS Backup+ and it doesn't work. It seems to backup everything, but when I restore, it just shows everyone's name in the text message list and each conversation is completely empty.
So I'm wondering 2 things:
1. Are there any apps that actually work for doing this right now with the Galaxy Note 4?
2. Can I manually extract my text messages? My phone is rooted. Here's the deal -- I'm flashing a new ROM and want to carry over my text message history. I would gladly do this manually if I knew how. I don't know where they're located or if this can be done.

Backs up SMS text messages to PC and restores. Amazing app now also allows PC to view and control your Note 4.
Also look at the Samsung Smart Switch Mobile app.

I accidentally DELETED my messages. Unfortunately I wasn't able to back up my SMS prior to the incident. Is there any safe way to retrieve my SMS messages without rooting the phone (android version 5.0.1)?
Will appreciate any help. TIA.
connect your mobile to computer with samsung kies which can help u to backup info in it
I know this thread is too old , but who use kies !!!!! Note 4 dont use it
Use smart switch , there app for phone and for pc for backup or switching devices
Will the Samsung switch work restoring backed up messages (from stock rom) to a custom ROM (not TouchWiz based)?

Same here.
I do 27000 sms backup/restores after each wipe. The only problem - process is slow.
But maybe it's due the number of sms messages.

My favorite app is TunesBro Android Manager. you can only backup selected messages. In most cases, people only need to backup the messages he/she cares about.

I will prefer to Android Assistant App, which has the feature of one click backup and restore, very convinient.
For backup the text messages for Android , you can sync your account with Facebook then log in Facebook to the Android phone , you can copy these messages that you need to backup , after you copying is completed , you can withdraw from your phone, then login into your computer with the same Facebook account , then export data on your computer for backup , the text messages backup program is completely ,
For recover messages for Android , you can extract these deleted data form backup on computer ,
Is there an app that can compatible with data recovery and backup for Android ?
I use gosmspro for messages,it has it's own backup feature which can also be used to schedule a backup.
