in my experience.. using activesync to back up SMS messages is not a good idea.. problems like this often occurs.. and i think everyone here uses the Sprite Backup PC utility to back up everything in their phone.. as it makes quite complete backups.. well that is only my opinion.. im sure someone from around here will respond to your problem.. good day

Using Sprite Backup is a blessing. The only thing is after a restore operation. If I write a message and delete it usually it goes to the DELETED box and I can view that one. But the case after a restore, those deleted msgs are hidden when deleted :!:

I know that Sprite Backup cannot handel the Database files :(

Which of course makes it hard to retrieve everything back to NORMALE and then I rate it C :!:

never happened to me... the only downside i encountered was some sharing errors of the Background Image and the SPB gprs monitor datas.. other than that it's been smooth... i give it an "A" overall

I am having this problem right now. After a restore I have 2 sms messages that I cannot view or delete. How can I manually fix this problem? Deleting the associated files in \windows\messages did not work.
