PIM Backup text message issue.

[coasterkev]

Here's the story...

I backed up everything with PIM backup before flashing Dutty's new diamond rom... afterwards I restored using PIM backup and everything except the text messages was restored... When I try to only restore the text messages, my device freezes... only about 30 messages come back when I restore... and it only gets all the way through restore only if it's just been flashed...

I had about 4,000 text messages backed up... a little over 340 were unread... all of which might be important... so if I could get this fixed it would be great... While at work I don't have time to check my messages so I check them at night but decided to update the ROM before reading my unread messages last night...

PIM backup has worked like a charm in the past when I updated from 6.0 to 6.1... this is my first "cooked rom" though...

I apologize if this is a repeat... But anything I've tried when I searched didn't work...

I may have figured out what the problem is...

On the old rom... the text messaging account was under the name "Text Messages" while on the new rom the name is "SMS/MMS"... I've read that different account names can cause a problem but then there isn't anything that tells how to change them like I'm expected to know how... maybe I'm dumb...

Sooo how do I change this back...? Could this be the problem?

Thanks for the friendly warning...

seems I only broke a "law of the land" seeing as how I didn't post in that thread... in the last 24 hours I've read most of that thing... just hadn't gotten to the last few pages where they start discussing this issue... I wasn't sure if it was a particular Kaiser issue or not...

congrats on 1,000 posts...

apparently I can't delete my own thread soooo... lil' help mods?
