Dear anyone
When I used Sprite Backup 3.14 to backup an exe file, then restored (including MMS and SMS data). The SMS was recovered OK, but MMS was not. When I opened MMS, I saw the old MMS in inbox, but when I clicked anyone of them, it was empty. Do you know why? Software problem?

Hi guys,
I am urgently seeking a help.
After upgrading/flashing to PDAMobiz_Dopod_P800W_AKU301_v1.1.2_PowerMap ROM, I am unable to restore PIM (contacts and calendar) information. I use Spb Backup for backing up. Though I was able to restore E-Mail (e-mail + SMS) from the same file. If I try to restore PIM info, I get some db error message and on top of that even cellular network is unavailable.
It seems that there is some difference in db structure for AKU 3.0 and 3.0.1 featured in the above ROM. I did though try to launch the file on my older WM2k3SE device but with no luck.
The issue is that I do not even have all the contacts and calendar on my Outlook (on the desktop), and as you can guess I am sitting empty with hundreds on contacts and calendar items lying in the backup file.
1. Is there anyone here to whom I can send the backup .exe file (created using Spb Backup app), so that he can launch it on his Artemis and then sync with clean Outlook and then export 2 files in .pst format (one for contacts and the other for calendar)
2. Or is there any other way to recover this information from the backup file that I have.
Someones assistance is required, as I am stuck. I will be highly thankful for any help.
The problem has been resolved thanks to user RAMBO29 here.
Well, few other gave me some tips as well .... tnx to them, too.
Greetings,
I just have a problem when I change the ROM on my Prophet PDA. I have made a backup of my PDA before changing the ROM using PIM Backup program. After I installed the new ROM and restore the backup, the messages (SMS) don't get restored and I guess that's because there is a different between SMS folder name in the old and new ROM. Newer ROM folder called "SMS / MMS" and the older one is called "Text Messages".
Any suggestion to resolve that?
Thanks,

Check the official PIM Backup thread here. I'm sure you will get help there.
Basically, as the title states I'm looking for options for backing up my SMS and MMS messages.
'My Backup Pro' does a fine job but it doesn't save the time stamps. Once you restore they all show up as new messages basically.
I'm looking for a way to backup, or even better, automatically backup or sync my messages.
(Too bad Google doesn't have a messages sync option like it does with contacts and calendar)
Thoughts?
I havent found a way to backup both SMS and MMS together.
SMS Backup & Restore backs up SMS with the TS and you can restore the backup.
I use Handcent to back up MMS.
Does My Backup Pro backup both SMS and MMS? I should try that out later tonight

Yep, you have the option to backup both. You can also backup apps and data, or either or. I really like the app otherwise.
I use an app called backup to gmail. saves all my sms, mms, call logs
real time
you can save the mms and sms seperately onto your sd card. But as for backing them up the only reason the backup is if your trasfering to another phone or flashing roms. If your trasfering to another phone go to a cellphone store and they can back up messages on a maching called cellebrite and trasfers the complete state of the phone to the other. As for just flashing roms i believe titanium backup will back it up, or you can make a nandroid and dig deep in the nandroid and pull up the messages.
Doesn't titanium backup save those?
I've done several backups/restores here of the call log and sms. Time stamps appear to be preserved. I do believe TB requires root access though.
Okay, I managed to get my apps and app data with my backup pro, but tried to get my call log as well.
sms, and mms several times to with a new back up then would copy it to the nexus with no luck it gave me a i/o error
i tried about 10 different sms/mms backup and restore programs which wouldn't let me restore the backups i made.
including "sms backup and restore"
I then tried with titanium backup and that appeared to work, but didnt actually place my texts in messaging.
any ideas? help!

In the past, when switching ROMs, I have been using 'Call Logs Backup & Restore' for my call logs, and 'Message Sync' for my SMS & MMS messages. These have done well in the past, with Message Sync restoring the SMS & MMS messages and preserving their original timestamps and order. the only problem I've had with it is I have been unable to have it back up to the external SD card as when I try to point it there, it complains that the FOLDER I pointed it to is in fact a file and thus fails to back up.
I am trying to run the CM10.2 unofficial ROM and had no issues restoring my call logs, but when I try to restore my SMS & MMS messages, it gets to 20-25% and then fails. The messages it restored are all fine and have the proper timestamps, but it seems to always fail at the same spot.
Titanium Backup did appear to work.
Aside from Titanium Backup, does anyone know of a good 'All in one' app that can backup & restore the call logs, SMS & MMS messages?
SMS Backup & Restore always works for me but it doesn't backup MMS (which I don't care about), only SMS. It's made by the same developer as Call Logs Backup & Restore.
I use mybackup (pro, but there is a free version. The pro just let's you restore from phone to phone, both work great!) And I set it to backup to my SD card instead of internal. Always worked very well for me. Would highly reccomend it.
