Hello...
I'm new at the xda-developers foruns and I need some help please.
I have the Artemis (HTC P3300 in Portugal) with Windows Mobile 6 from HTC.
Does anyone know where does the PDA stores the TXT, MMS and E-MAIL messages? Is any way to store this messages in the memory card?
Thanks in advance.
So... anyone...
Its possible to save messages (SMS, MMS and e-mails) on the memory card?!?!?!?
Thanks in advance.
Chill dude You can't set the messages to save onto a storage card, as far as i know, but if you are worried about attachments, you can set it to store attachments on the Storage Card. Messaging> Settings> Storage.
Hope this helps!

Is there any linux por ppc?
there is a reg fix somewhere on the forum, i can't remember where it is. I'll try to find it again.
But they explained that the memory card was desactivated to save power when the phone is on sleep but that the main memory was active in order to recieve puseh emails.
I'll try to find that rag again.
One thing that I never got any answers is are mms considered pused mails?
saving mails to storage card
Never used for myself - just found in this thread
HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings
add "PropertyPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail" datatype="string"
and add "AttachPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments" datatype="string"
cool,
but will this affect the downloads of mms?

Great!!! It works!!!
Only with E-Mail messages... Some registry changes for SMS and MMS???

PropertyPath is not working. Is there another code name to get the system to send messages to the Storage Card?

Alright, now that I've moved my IE folders, I'm looking for more little things that can help improve the performance of my phone or atleast help with a little logevity....
Now I'm wondering, has anyone found a way to have their MMS, SMS and Email messages stored on their storage card instead of their phone?
Also, What other items have people done or found that could potentially increase memory space on the phone or allow the device to perform slightly better?

What about the SMS and MMS messages? My understanding is that app only acts on the IE cache and email storage locations...

Is it a problem with to many emails, messages etc, as you could always move the old ones to another location on storage card via resco explorer, not sure about change of location, must be able to this would prove valuable to lot's of us if someone knows? Bet ya it's in the reg somewhere...
Nice one gixxum you must have been typing in the background
Lol @ Gixxum
Thanks for the link!
well...I looked over that thread...unfortunately I'm not sure what to do...
there just wasn't enough in that to make a solid change, and renaming the Storage Card? noooooooooooooo
Save Email To Storage
Create these folders on your Storage Card
'\Storage Card\Inbox' and the subfolder '\Attachments'
Then make these edits
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MAPI
"AttachPath"="\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments"
"PropertyPath"="\Storage Card\Inbox"
Restart your Dash and your good to go

I WILL TRY THIS. IF THIS WORKS, MAY CEILING CAT BE WITH YOU ALWAYS.
are we creating AttachPath and PropertyPath in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MAPI?
If so, are AttachPath and PropertyPath keys?
Are "\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments" and "\Storage Card\Inbox" D Words or String Values?
my monorail cat crashed =(

I think for SMS and MMS is:
\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments
Works for me
Hello,
I have a T-Mobile Dash and I need to find a way to transfer the text messages from it to my pc. Is there an open source program out there that I could use to do that with? My guess is that there are about 500-600 text messages that I need to save.

You could also use PIM Backup v2.8 is made for PPC's so bit fiddly on SP but does the job all the same, can save to storage card & copy to PC.
or try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3587961#post3587961
Not exactly what you're looking for, but I don't know the reason for wanting to do this, so I thought I'd point out another alternative. Take a look at Microsofts "My Phone"... it'll syncronize your entire phone (including text messages) to the cloud. If you're doing this just for backup and restore purposes, it's easy to use. Took me a little bit to get my beta account though.

Thanks all for your tips. I ended up trying PIM Backup and it worked but the formatting of the text messages came out so scattered when I viewed them in Open Office Excel that I am unable to find a formatting that will keep the dates legible. I tried different file conversion attributes and even tried converting the file to a .pdf but with no luck. I guess its enough that the program actually backed up everything but I would really like to have some way to verify that all the data can be successfully restored after I cold reset my Dash since I have been trying for some time with T-Mobiles tech support to find a way to get my picture text messaging functioning again but they are telling me that the only way to get that to happen is to cold reset the phone and that will kill all of my contacts and text messages so I need to make sure that all of that data is actually saved and restorable before I go ahead and try. I also wanted to have a copy of all of my data should the hard drive on the phone fail at some time. Any suggestions for how to verify that the data can actually be restored?

Just a personal opinion, but unless the texts are hilarious jokes or a guide to a hidden treasure, I don't see why anyone would have to save 500-600 texts!

I often recommended PIMBackup, but several times users in other forums reported incomplete restores with backup, especially with larger amounts of SMS. So I would not bet on it. I use Sprite Backup, but maybe you wanna give the free Mobile Express http://www.efficasoft.com/mobileexpress/index.html a try. It is sort of a Outlook Express for SMS, you can move SMS to a backup folder, and of course also send/receive from your desktop PC.

For me, PIMBackup has allways done the job (even though I had 1000+ sms/mms to recover after backup).
But, like with any other apps, there will allways be some problems on particular devices/ROMs.
Grtz,
Degake
Maybe try myphone.microsoft.com ? Works for me.
Jeyo Mobile Companion is awesome!
It lets you download the messages, back them up and restore them with the threaded sms in place..
I haven't had any issues so far, but I don't use it a huge amount, just to reply to sms's from the pc while the phone is connected
http://www.jeyo.com
By the way.. Dutty's ROMs ROCK!! (Just thought I'd add that in since I've not said it anywhere else )
I eassely exceed over a 1000+ sms a month, so i'm realy searching for a nice app what does the trick.. i'll be watching this tread and will be trying a few suggestions

The Microsoft MyPhone service would handle this nicely. You can set the options to sync when when ever there is change on the device meaning your SMSs can be uploaded to the web as soon as they arrive.
You can also use MyPhone to back up contacts, calendar, music and pictures. It's still a 'work in progress' service but I wouldn't be surprised to see it integrate with Live Mesh and (hopefully) Outlook so it can become an Exchange Service for Joe Public.

I'm not sure what SMS app you use but Vito just came out with an update for their SMSChat app. You can now backup your sms in the settings within this app...no need for any other software!
I've used POWERSMS and worked fine for me.
Ciao

this one is free, and offcourse, for me being dutch, freeware does the trick better
haha
no kidding, i'll be testing the lot, as soon as i got them. i will be ceeping my eyes open, buth this one did the trick nicely!
Sadly it doesn't work with "conversations", that's the only thing missing, you'll have to sort all messeges by date, sender, or size.
Shurely if you export all messeges sorted by time it somehow looks like a conversation.
i'll be trying the other options now
Hello people. I am looking for an application to back up and restore a bit later my SMS Inbox, Sent and Deleted Items folders. Then, I would like to restore this back up on another device. These two devices are both HTC Touch Pro2. I had a warranty replacement, but I have many messages on my old phone. Like I said: I want to back up and restore my SMS Inbox, Sent, and Deleted Items Folder; And the same thing with my MMS folders. Thank You For Your Help!!

Microsoft's free MyPhone app will do that, along with your contacts, e-mails, etc...just not your programs. It backs them up to the cloud, so you can even access them through a regular web portal from a PC, if you're so inclined It's one of the most useful things (right out of the box anyway) that microsoft has ever spit out
myphone.microsoft.com
With the free util PIMBackup you can backup/restore SMS.
Don't know if it also does MMS?

so, yeah, it appears that myphone doesn't do MMS as well...I thought it was all along, until you pointed that out.
I've gone digging for another solution, and it seems that none of the personal-information backup solutions are able to grab the MMS messages too, including the one developed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705
According to that dev, the issue is with how the MMS interface (by Arcsoft software) stores/references its info in a proprietary format that's not easy to interpret and utilize.
So, for the time being anyway, the only way to back up MMS as well is to do a full system backup with something like SPB Backup or Sprite

I'd never seen it before, and it does look pretty cool...but it looks like even that one doesn't capture MMS messages
Not sure about "capture" but I think it might send and backup MMS
Much better than that app Microsoft have produced, although there's no supprise there !
