Can someone please help me..
I want to upgrade to the new ROM 1.11 but I need to backup all of my messages..
I am not sure if using xBackup to backup before upgrading the new ROM then use xBackup to restore is ok or not.. (will this screw up my PPC? because of the old files that might overwrite the new ROM files)
or is there any other way to backup the messages then restore after the upgrade is completed?
Thanks in advance. :wink:
use Jeyo Mobile Compagnion work great for this
Sprite Backup also backs up messages and call logs. You'll just have to use the advanced method and see to that you only check those things when you restore. It's said that you cannot restore the full backup afterwards.
Try this

Thanks for all the tips!
Trying them now
Hi everybody.
I've 2 TyTNs.
The first has xda-live 0.2
The second has the standard italian rom.
After flashing the first I've lost all my messages (I was trying to restore a backup made with SPB Backup) but it didn't work at all.
Before flashing the second I'd like to backup (on WM5) and restore (on WM6) all data.
For Contacts I use NS Contact Backup (I prefer it to outlook)
For SMS I use SMS Backup but it works for SMS only.
For Outlook Emails I use Activesync.
What can I use to backup MMS on WM5 and restore them on WM6?
(I already tried SMS organizer but it hangs. )
Thanks anyone.
Very good question. I want to know also how to backup my MMS.
SMS is no problem.
I was wondering if i can copy all my sms from my O2 mini to another PDA phone ?
thanks
Yep!!
Use DotFred's PPCPIMbackup (Get it HERE); just backup the SMS messages on your old device, copy the backup file via ActiveSync (or memory card) to the new device, then install PPCPIMbackup and restore the SMS messages from the backup.....
Easy huh?
Mark.
NICE !
thanks
Hello fakesurfer,

How to Backup SMs when upgrading from M2.1 to M2.5
I have tried searching the forum and discovered you cant just restore sms via PIM backup, is it possible to keep sms messages when upgrdaing from manila2.1 to m2.5.
Any help would be greatly appreshiated

try using microsoft my phone?
Install pimbackup on your phone or just run it as an application (.exe)
You can find it everywhere on the internet
After that start the program and select backup....
Give the backup a location (I'm always using storage card)
After that just do your thing, flash rom or manila as you suggested.
Now start PPCpimbackup and "restore" search on sd card your backup and finished. That's all.
Good Luck
pim backup is ok, but not satisfing... I encounter a strange order of threaded sms in titanium edition.
with SPB backup.... it worked fine.
ok, it is a commercial product, so you may investigate further, but I did the trick for me.
beside: it may not be the greatest idea to import mass of sms into manilla 2.5.
I've tried PimBackup and Sprite Backup.
Both backup and restore fine the SMSs, but PIM when restoring, when using the HTC Messaging client, don't put the pictures of the contacts in convertation mode. With Sprite Backup I have no issues...
MOD EDIT - Moved to general discussion
Thankyou for your replies I intend to flash my phone tonight - I have flashed my phone many times, It will be the first time using manila 2.5
After trying Android Froyo for my Touch HD, I decided to use it for daily use, because I think Froyo is stable enough (last time I tried the eclair I feel not so stable), and overall it's better than WinMo
So I tried to move few important things that exist on my winmo, and the most important things that I feel is:
- Contact
- Calendar
- SMS
As a newbie I feel it might be useful for those of you who just tried to use android for you Touch HD device, and I will try to share my experience in doing it.
Hopefully useful.
=============================
WinMo - Sync Contacts and Calendar with Gmail account
The first thing need to do is performing synchronization between the existing Calendar and Contacts on winmo with gmail account. If you haven't already, you can follow the steps described here :
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299
It is not so hard to do
WinMo - Backup existing sms
Because I have some important sms messages so I don't want to lose them.
1. Download sms exporter from http://stop3dataroaming.googlecode.com/files/SmsExporterSetup0.5.CAB
2. Create a backup file with sms exporter and store it in the folder <sdcard> / SMSBackupRestore (if this folder is not exist please create it first), and give it the name: mySMS.xml
Installing Android
Install Froyo Android on your device, you can use the steps described on this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732362
And use your gmail account to get all contact and calendar items on android
Froyo - Downloading SMS Backup
Download and install the SMS Backup and Restore app by typing the word SMS Backup and Restore on the android market and select/install the application SMS Backup and Restore by Ritesh Sahu
Froyo - Restore SMS
Run the SMS Backup and Restore app, and click the restore button. There will be a pop up asking you which file to restore and then choose mySMS.xml.
Select OK and then the application will start the restore process.
Froyo - Transferring SMS backup to gmail - optional
Later, once the SMS has been moved to the android, I felt froyo becoming a bit slow (I have about 2300 sms mesages lol), so I decided to move / backup all the SMS to my gmail account.
What you need is only to install the SMS Backup+ by Jan Berkel (just search it on android Market)
And after all sms items uploaded to my gmail account under label SMS,I remove some old messages and then android becomes faster
That's all. Hopefully will help for those of you who tried to install froyo on your Touch HD
