Will this app restore SMS from a sense rom to an AOSP rom? For example: if I backup on stock HTC sense and then flash CM7 will the app restore messages to the stock gingerbread SMS app that were backed up in the HTC Sense messaging app?

Direct approach

I like the direct approach; backup and restore! Your app is simple and worked fine on my Samsung Galaxy S / Android 2.2.1. Keep up the good work.

For what it's worth, I've also used Titanium Backup's SMS backup and it worked fine too. Yours doesn't seem to need root, at least I can't remember seeing a Superuser dialog...

I would very much like to be able to back up to dropbox automatically each day / week. Do you think that's possible? I know you titanium backup pro can backup applications to dropbox.

The latest 0.5 version seems not to work with gingerbread sense test rom...It can restore about 30 SMS but then it says error restoring SMS.

Device: desire hd

Rom: gingerbread sense rom:confused:

I just downloaded this for use on my Vibrant with Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey and it seems to work perfectly. I will suggest this to my friends.
