[Q] Nexus 4 Modified MMS.apk bug resolution. - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all. I'm using the LG Nexus 4, rooted, and running the stock rom. I absolutely LOVE the theme of this MMS.apk originally developed for the Galaxy Nexus:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745830
However, I have a small problem...I cannot send MMS messages or receive them, as well as forwarding multiple people a message. Otherwise regular SMS messaging and everything else works out fine. I installed it through the use of Root Browser Lite after uninstalling and backing up the stock MMS through Titanium Backup. The post also mentions installation by "flashing into recovery," though not sure if that is the same as installing a rom through Clockwork Recovery or another method, which I did not do. Can anyone help me? I wish to keep using the stock messaging app with this theme, without the need for a third party SMS solution like Handcent or GO SMS Pro. Thanks!

[Q] Using SMS Backup & Restore to go between Sense and CM7 or Sense based GB rom?

I made a backup of my texts using SMS Backup & Restore, and want to know about flashing a different type of rom, such as MIUI, CM7, or one of the Sense based GB roms out there. Are there any issues in restoring text messages created on one type of rom, and restoring them to another type of rom? According to the app description, it saves the texts to XML, so I don't think that would cause issues, unlike Titanium Backup can, if you restore settings between two different types of roms.
The one I use backs up my sms through my gmail account. I can switch to either sense or aosp based roms and my messages are fine

nope you are good to go. Been using sms backup and restore for a while now. Make sure you have it schedule to backup at all times.
Also when switching ROM, it is always a good idea to "manually" backup you texts before wiping...

GoSMS Pro has problems restoring a lot of messages. I just tried restoring 10 000 messages. Both Stock and GoSMS are freezing after the 3-hour long restore. Can't get any of my messaging apps to work.

[Q] solid solution for backing up sms AND mms

hi,
I've been searching the internet for quite a while now in a search for an application that will backup my sms AND mms messages.
Yes, I know about backing up to gmail, but when I need to restore it - it doesn't restore mms, it only does sms and I need BOTH.
I have mms messages that are very important to me since sometimes I write messages longer than 4 sms, it just doesn't matter to me how long is it so I end up with sending mms quite a lot of times. It is because of that it is very important for me to find a solid application that backs up mms along with ordinary sms.
I am doing this because when I update to 2.3.3. all of those messages will be lost and I want to have them in my phone at all times. Any good and working suggestions please?
Also, I have tried Android Sync Manager today and it says it backed up all the messages but when I go and try to restore them it says that restore failed (after the progress bar fills up), could that be because none of the messages has been deleted? I think that it should back them up even if they haven't been deleted, it's not like the program cares if I have 2 of each message right? So does ASM actually work and I'm supposed to update without being afraid for my mms and sms because it will restore once all messages are deleted or it doesn't work and you have a better solution?
Thank you
Backup and restore for 2.3

does it work on android 2.1? I need to back them up on 2.1 and then restore when I'm on 2.3.
Also sorry if this is in the wrong section, it's just that the description "Discussion about the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 (tips & tricks, etc)" seemed nice to me to ask the question here since I'd say I'm asking for a tip/trick
You have backup and restore on 2.1. On 2.3 install the 2.3 version and restore.

Moving from Sense 3.0 to MIUI -How to keep messages?

Hey guys,
I'm currently running Android Revolution HD 6.1.4 and I want to move to a MIUI based ROM, the only thing stopping me is that I want to keep some specific SMS and MMS messages but I can't find a way to backup AND restore MMS messages. Some claim to do it but I have heard of people having issues going between different ROMs.
Can anyone link me to a guide or app that can allow me to backup and restore SMS and MMS messages that will work going from Sense to MIUI?
I am unable to buy apps so if you suggest an app please consider this.
Thank you and sorry if this is in the wrong section.
Use mybackup root. You can download it in market.

Every time i've changed ROM i have made a backup of all SMS on my phone. I use Sms backup+. Unfortunately I'm a new member and I can't post any link to this application, but it's very easy to find it on Android Market.
It uploads all your text messages to your gmail account and afterwards once you've installed your new ROM, you just download the app again and reset all the messages! Works very well, and also it's free!
Good Luck!
I use smsbackuprestore its simple, free and works with any from and any SMS application, even worked when I moved from MIUI on my inspire to my galaxy nexus
even Titanium Backup pro is brilliant, works all the time for me
Afaik, tit backup doesn't backup the messages itself. Anyway, when I restore a backup (full backup ofc), my sms messages are not restored
I use SMSbackup & Restore seperately... I don't know if this backups mms messages as well

Why are U unable to buy apps?
Titanium Backup Pro works great, and you can backup too many other things, such as your score in games, some of your configuration settings...
running smsbackup+ here to,
run the app, backup to gmail, and then restore, worked perfectly for me. no matter what rom i am using.
i solved the massive amount of sms being restored back after a couple of months by simply assigning them a different label in gmal. so im still able to find them if i need, but wont overfill my phone.
I use gosms to make a backup file in my SD card, install new rom and then gosms to restore all SMS from backup.
Yours truly.
SMS Backup+ is a very great choice. Easy upload of your files to your gmail account. Hassle free.!! Do try it.
Here is the link
I also use SMS Backup+. It works perfectly fine.
The only one I know that backs up both sms and mms including pictures is Sprite Backup. Check it out.
I removed the original SMS app and installed Go SMS pro. There are built-in backup/restore functions in Go SMS pro.
I always use SMS Backup & Restore, incredibly easy and quick to get them off your sd card and back into your SMS app

I used Mybackup pro, used from gingerbread sense to ICS, and back lol.
I'm also using SMS Backup+ . No problems so far
I always use a combination of titanium backup and mybackup. Just back up all your data with both of them, then after restoring with titanium fill up what is left out with mybackup..

Always used mybackup pro. Works like a charm for me.

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.

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.
