Default sms back up

Hi !

what do i need to back up all my sms to pc?
Activesync doesn't syncronyse them into outlook... =(
full back up is not a way to save them too, as I need to save only them without other info.

and is there a way to read them on pc?
as I understand they are in windows\messaging folder on ppc, but I need some program to read them I believe..

thanks, I'll try it

actually i was mistaken when said that i can't read files from windows\messaging folder of ppc.

they are plain text - but there are a lot of empty files - much more than files with text - i think that are remainings from deleted sms.

i made full back up and then did hard reset.
I tried to restore back up - butsome fileswere not restored - as it said files werelocked by some application. but i had no progamms running...

most of that files were just some system files which i don't need. but what is bad - my contacts didn't syncronise =(((

anybody knows what can help?

and I even can't synchronyse by ActiveSync - when i connect my ppc - it shows "Syncranisation error" and all that I can do is exploring device..

If I lost my 500+ phone it's very terrible thing...

can anyone help?

all numbers are stored in outlook - but how can I copy them to ppc?
manully it'll take so long time!!!... =(

well...I found the solution - I hard reseted ppc, than syncronysed it with pc and only after that restored full back up - in that way all contacts are again on their place, and syncronization works now...


anyway I just flashed new rom with fixed cam and with my own ext_rom for russia...=)
thanks PUG

everything seems to work now...exept some *.dll's don't restore from backup, along with contacts...=|

and one more thing I want to know - is there any list what .CAB files in ext_rom are for? I found almost nothing using search - and it was about xdaII not IIi....

Default Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook is your answer

Hiya,

If you are using outlook than you'll want use Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook http://www.jeyo.com/extender.asp. It works via activesync. It creates a folder in your .pst and from there you can completely control your sms on your mobile. You can send and receive sms to your pc while the XDA is cradled (or wifi activesync), backup sms from the XDA to pc or vice versa... well worth it! I've been using it for months - since I had a problem like yours.

Before I last did a hard reset, I used smsBackup. It's freeware, it involves a little manual shuffling of files around, but it worked great for me in saving all of my SMSes (although for some reason I made a mistake and it saved everything twice, but hey no big deal).

Guys, guys, guys!!!
smsBackup is NOT freeware! I downloaded a lot of versions (with crack) and none of them worked after installation!
For me only 2.41 from the producer's website is working, but I can't find any crack...

Any help would be highly appreciated!
