Hi the_erk!
But thats for smartphone only. :roll:
I think Sprite Backup may be able to do the job, here:-

provided you know where the sms are stored :roll:
Try Sprite backup..
you can backup EVERYTHING, and restore selectively.
this includes mail, sms, settings, contacts, as well call list and such..
hope that helps..

Hi AntiProxy,
Can you do selective backup instead of everything using Sprite Backup?
Thanks
You could also use Jeyo mobile companion or outlook add-in, available here:

These allow you to manipulate and send SMS messages on your device, including copying them to your PC.

yup, you can choose to backup any of the following separately:
file system, Personal databases, mail, System Data
under File System, you may choose to backup individual paths
under Personal databases, you may choose any of the following individual DBs: Phone (Speed dials, Call logs), Categories, Contacts, Tasks, Appointments
under System data, you may choose any of the following:
Other Databases, File System, Registry.
so in short, yeah, you can backup anything and everything
i personally have it autorun at midnight taking a full backup onto the SD card, with 2 last backups retension..
i know it'll come in handy one day
with the generated backup files being self-contained executables, you can recover from a hard reset without a host computer
Try Jeyo
one of the BEST SMS utitlities for SMSing that I have used so far is the Jeyo Mobile Extender.
It allows you to backup all of your SMSes into the Outlook folders on your PC.
You can even send SMSes from the PC if your PDA is sync-ed.
It doesn't have the option of sending your smses back to the PDA though.
Check it out at www.jeyo.com
It didn't seem to work with my XDA, but worked just fine with the IIs.

Couldn't agree more its great I love it best little download yet
just to tell you, you can't backup subfolders of your sms
ie if you created any subfolders in the sms tree, jeyo doesn't back them up.
does anyne know how to back up incoming sms for XDA IIs?
Just re-read above post, it's already been explained....use sprite back up..mas

Sorry for being off-topic, but I have searched and searched to my wit's end. Do you plan to have a version of SMS Organizer for the smartphone?
Please can someone advise me how I can backup the databases off of my Blue Angel to my computer. I can see the files in Mobile Device\Pocket PC\Databases, but can't do anything with them.
Specifically, I want to backup my contacts database (not via syncing with Outlook), and have a copy so I can recover my contacts if I lose my phone. Ideally, I could export my contacts database to a new .wab file on my desktop.
Thanks for the help,
Lewis
I upgraded to WM6 last week and everything is working well EXCEPT that I cant create a new Contact to my SIM or memory.
Anybody facing this issue? Any recommendation??
Thanks.

ROM Version : 3.00.707.17
Radio version : 1.46.00.11
Are you saying that you don't have the "soft" left button labeled New or it doesn't allow you to save new contacts?
Hi there PGMMA,
I can click the 'New' button but when I click the 'Save' button, the contact was not saved.
I have also tried from Phone. When I click Menu-Save to Contacts, I click <New Contact>, fill the name and save, but the contact is not saved.
No such problem before the upgrade.
Thanks
Did you copy file PIM form you old rom to new rom?
Hi xtraart,
Yes, the PIM was backed up using SPB Backup in WM5 and restored to WM6. Hmmm, that may be one of the reason...
Thanks.
Same problem experienced with the restoration of a Spb WM5 backup with the upgrade option after upgrading to WM6.
Solved the problem by saving the contacts to PC first by syncing with a PC, hard resetting PPC, then save the fresh and clean pim.vol file under My Device to somewhere, restore the Spb backup, replace the restored pim.vol with the clean pim.vol, and re-sync with the PC to get all contacts back. Then it works normally.
I managed to solve the problem thanks to solitary.
I did a PIM Backup using PIMBackup, Hard Reset, Reinstall without PIM and reinstall PIM using PIMBackup.
Thanks all...
Hi,
for years and years (well..3 maybe) I've used SPB back up on my devices. I only ever back up my contacts and messages as I've found the trying to do system details causes problems.
Just recently I've discovered (sadly) that SPB backup doesn't back up sub-folders that I've created in my SMS box (Saved, Logs, Important etc).
The advantage to SPB though is that it creates an executable and doesn't require me to install the software on another phone.
Does anyone know if PIM Backup will back up ALL of me SMS box? ok, so I would have to reinstall after a hard reset to perform the restore, but I'll have to live with that.
or, an alternative application perhaps?
thanks
Hello,
The problem is this: I just received my HTC Touch Pro 2. Before this I had a Diamond. I backed-up all the data inside the Diamond with Sprite Backup Tool before selling it expecting that I could restore the backup on my new Touch Pro 2.
It seems that I can't import the messages now. I am trying to restore all the data with Level 2 but I get this error: "personal database cannot be restored" or something like this. The other seetings/files are beeing restore (ex: owner information or any installed applications).
So right now I'm having a backup file. Does anyone know how can I get my messages out of that file?
Regards
For future purposes, use Microsoft myphone service. It's free and syncs all your contacts, sms, videos and music on their servers. When you upgrade your phone, you can easily sync all that data back to the new phone.
Or, you could download Jeyo Mobile Extender - works with Outlook in that you can sync, copy, import, export SMS to your heart's content...
