Search for 'Super Backup' which will do all messages, contacts and call logs. Titanium Backup is for apps.

how do i copy sms from one rom to a new one

hy ppl!
i want to change my rom build but i need the sms messages from my old one. how do i copy them from my old rom build to my new one ?
Sms backup + from the market,free tool i believe,it backups to gmail,and imports them also from that location. Working great,you only need a gmail account for it.

SMS & MMS Backup when flashing ?

Hello.
One question from noob.
How can I backup and restore my SMS & MMS messages when flashing ROMS.
I have been looking into this, but haven't found a proper way.
I'm now soon going to change to Clockwork Recovery ROM'sbut I would really like to be able to restore my SMS/MMS.
Can someone help me ??
Can someone also recommend a ROM, a daily use ROM.
To backup SMS etc use this free app.
I am using this Desire HD based Sense Rom and can't fault it. Each ROM choice is a matter of personal taste though.

Go get "sms backup" app from market, before you make the switch.
edit:
I am using the same build as nobnut, I can vauch for it too!
Stable, auto backup everything on sd car, gps, wifi, 3G - everything works.
Nice HTC Sense themes and you can use Go Launcher to make it clean Android look, so you have lots of options.

[Q] Sim Card + Roms

Hi guys, sorry I'm still new to rooting on android. Im currently running CM7 Build 34 and obviously Im having the problem that CM doesnt read contacts on the SIM card. My question is do all roms have this problem? or is just Cyanogenmod? If other ROMS are compatible with SIM crads, can you please list a few?
Thanks in advance and sorry for being such a newb
You can back up your contacts thru google with your email. Though I remember something about apps on the market that take them from your sim.

Royalginger,ice glacier thats the only roms ive flashed & they been perfect & also reads sim card contacts..
I noticed that not all my contacts moved when I first switched to an android device. My solution was stick the SIM card back into my old phone, copy the contacts to an Excel file, and re-enter the missing ones by hand (and delete dupes). And I always choose Google for new contacts so they all get backed up in the same place.

Switching nand bulids

Hi im curently on MIUI 1.4.1 nand i had it for a while,its a good rom but i got bored an now i want to try new rom, i switch roms almost every week i Love trying new bulids
my question is if i do a MIUI nandroid backup from CWR,can i restore it on a gignerbread sense rom (Frankinstine's 2.3.3 rom )
Hi,
A NANDROID BACKUP is a complete backup of the entire system you are running i.e. MIUI.
If you install a new ROM i.e. Gingerbread and don't like it ,you can restore your MIUI system exactly how it was.
If on the other hand you want to save the settings and data,you should use something like Titanium Backup .However ,this might not work on all ROMS
So i will lose my data with nandroid?
There can be some problems. But it may work.
Do a backup with Titanium just in case and then try with nandroid.

Associate your contacts with your google account....then no more worries no matter upgrading or switching to another devs build.

If you want to save data, you need something like Titanium Backup.

I could instruct you on the process of converting contacts but it would be in your better interest to look it up....my journeys always led me to cool new things I didnt know before.
Enjoy our build.
