Hi im running android on a HTC fuze and i have some important sms messages i want to save to my pc. Is there any way i can get them copied to my pc???
Is this a question for while you are in WinMo (windows mobile) or are you attempting to do this while running Android? Please, help us help you!
Well, reading his post I would assume the SMS messages were received in Android...
I'll do some digging, I'm sure there's something.
Have you seen Google Voice tho? I think it's open now, and that's the best/easiest way to archive SMS messages.
Woops! Missed that...
I guess the question is, can you save/upload existing sms to GV? I want to say there was a free sms program that would allow exporting of sms. At the moment the name excapes my memory...

Not to my knowledge... Just for SMS messages going forward. Doesn't do him a whole lotta good, I know.
I'm actually kinda swamped at work today so I haven't been able to do any research on this yet...
For Windows Mobile, get Microsoft MyPhone.
For Android, there's SMS Backup, which sends your texts to gmail.

Anyone know of anyway to backup sms from the Excalibur and view them on a PC? I'm currently running Ricky's v24 on a T-moblie Dash if that matters at all.
-Thanks in Advance
Try Jeyo Mobile Companion 2.0 or I think Kavana's and Ricky's ROM come with a SMS Backup tool as well. Give it a shot.
check out dashwire.com . i use this and its pretty awesome.

Just to confirm what gixxum said, Dashwire backs-up text messages through a sync process that automatically sends all sent and recieved texts to your computer (via our web service). You can search through them at any time. Another cool thing; you can send text messages from your computer, through your phone.
Hope this helps...
Anyone else have problems with text messaging?
Scenario: I receive a text message, the notification pops up on screen. I have my phone handy, so i hit the reply button.
The phone takes me to Windows Mobile text messaging. I send my text message reply. If the same person texts me back, it is not registered as being read.
So i exit the screen back to the TouchFlo 3d menu. I have a new text message (that i have already seen and read)
So i go to the windows mobile text system to read it...again.
NOW, lets say i have a full conversation with someone. 30 messages later, I still have 30 unread messages, every time i open the windows mobile text messanger, it removes ONE new message, not all.
So, i never get to use the TouchFlo 3d messenger, which is half decent, and the WM6.1 text messenger is stupid.
Does anyone know of a setting, or a third party text program that will over ride this crap, or am i just hoping this all works out.
Am i really the only one who has text messaging difficulties?

this is a known issue my friend...
download SafeInBoxExtender... search the main forum...
it will let you "mark all messages as read" ..
it will cure your problem right up..
*nods* i have it already, it doesnt exactly "cure" the problem, UGH!
We shouldnt have to come up with stupid fixes for stuff microsoft should already have fixed.
Is 6.5 slated to fix some of this garbage?
I have another problem
i cant use the TF messaging
allot of times it tells me message not sent
and if not there is no delivery report
i found out the there is a TF delivery report i must check 1st
but its not fixed !!!
when i go out of the message it becoms unchecked !!
So at the end i used the Win messaging with no problems there
but i wish i can just click the incoming message and reply right away
hmm how odd, i don't have either of those issues.
Which version of the TP2 are you guys using?

U mean u reply on sms from the TF thread mode with no problems and u receive a delivery report ???
without having to use the Win messaging mode ?
why me then?
hope any one can help me
my Rom version is 1.19.415.1
dated 06/12/09
im using the sprint TP2
Another partial fix here...Partial because Ive only using the new dll for a bout a week(not sure of long temr effects) & I cant make a successful backup using sprite backup etc without adding the dll files to the exclude list of files to backup.
im not quite sure i understand what you just said.
Is there a way to send my txt messages from Android to WM6.5? It's not that big of a deal but somethings If I am in a big conversation it gets split between the OSs (because I get the sudden urge to go to Android lol).
I'm looking for a way to handle this too, I hate when I get an important txt in android and then forget that I won't have in in winmo or vice versa.

Well, it's not a very good solution, but I suppose if you are on a GSM phone, you could copy the messages to the sim card, and transfer them 30 at a time...
As for the other better solution, I don't know of a software solution yet, but I think it's time to start developing one that will export them into an intermediate format, and re-import them from the same format on both windows mobile and android. Think PIM backup but for both android and WINMO...
Psst.
Hi, my company has just changed our phones from G1's to Omnia 7's. I had a handy app on the G1 that I used to forward my SMS's to my personal phone (save carrying both around with me out of office hours). Is there anything available to do this on the Windows mobile 7 omnia at all ? Many thanks
I know that with NoDo you can press and hold on the text you got and it will give you an option to forward it. I don't remember that being there in 7004.

It was there before NoDo... I know cause I dont have NoDo yet and the forward option is indeed there.
Problem is that the OP probably wants an automated process, instead of having to press all SMS's, and for that I don't think there is an application yet.
Hi guys, many thanks for your replies, as Avandor has suggested, I really need this to be an automated process as the phone will probably be at home, so I need it to push it automatically, if possble.
It's been nearly a year now... has any SMS auto-forwarding app popped up yet?
I'm contemplating getting a WP7 phone but need this feature.
Thanks

Mmm, this is all I find:
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/8427cf9a-070a-4453-8024-56d21d81933e
It just looks like an app that sends pre-written SMSes to specific numbers.

It's a security issue / consider Google voice instead

This is not possible in WIndows Phone 7.
Under Windows Mobile 6.5 you could write handlers to intercept text messages as they arrive and do various things, such as send it to an email address using an email account.
But, it would not immiately send. It would go to your outbox and only actually send when you synced.
It's kind of a security issue to allow any application to directly send SMS or make calls without any confirmation. I say kind of because any dev could have called a webservice or done an HTTP post to a site instead. But, imagine a malicious devloper making an app that text messages all of your contacts or random people without your knowledge or confirmation with each send. If they allowed the app you want, they would not be able to stop the malicious app.
You may want to consider Google Voice, since users can SMS the google voice number and it will forward to the numbers or email addresses that you wnat to recieve it on. Then you can reply from any device running a Google Voice app.
I have been using this app and wanted to turn everyone else on to it. This app keeps your text messages synced in the cloud and enables you to be able to send and receive text message on your computer. If I send a text from my phone, it still shows up on my computer and vice versa. It is really nice to have my phone on the charger, and while I'm using my computer I can read and respond to my text messages without having to ever go get my phone. And best of all......IT'S FREE. Check it out.

Looks a lot like Google Voice SMS.
Also another app called AirDroid lets you text through your computer browser

Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not 100% certain) but isn't Google Voice SMS just a sms scheduling app? This app I posted about actually uses your existing cell phone number and lets you text business as usual from the phone but the texts stay in sync in the cloud, and gives you access to them (send, receive, compose, etc) from the computer.

What I like about this one is that you can use the browser but you don't have to. They also have a windows and a mac app too. I prefer to use the windows app so that I don't have to keep the tab open with that site. Also with the windows app even after a reboot I still get my messages on the computer.

I used deskSMS
It is similar to mysms, and it is free, but you can use it only through browser.

Yeah I saw a few browser based ones. What got my attention about this one is that it actually has a windows app that I could install to my computer. That's cool because when I boot up my computer I'm able to handle my text messages without having to do anything. The only complaint I have about it so far is that there are no audible text message alerts during a call (just like the stock sms app).
Today I've noticed it doesn't sync the existing mms messages. But it will sync mms messages that come in after you install the app.
Google voice does this. I use the chrome extension all the time

Google voice sends text messages via the google voice phone number.
A friend of mine was using MyPhoneExplorer. It is only for Windows, so i didn't try it. But he told me that the app has a notification system integrated, and you can also answer a call through the pc.
is there additional battery drain with this since it is syncing your texts to the cloud?
Thats one reason why i switched from GV to my regular number, the reliance on data to send texts got annoying with low signal and also drained battery
I think voice typing is better
Outbound, the server can send any phone number but I don't know how it can receive without the phone being on.
The messages can be sent out via a phone or browser but the phone is the key in receiving since the number is physically ported through the carriers to your cell.
So your phone receives the messages and uploads it to the server for viewing everywhere.
Neat. Would be cool using on my tablet.

Thanks for letting us know, a friend of mine might find this very useful. They always thought it was cool that I could send and receive SMS messages from my Google Voice Chrome extension (or the web page, obviously) and they'd always get frustrated when they'd forget to use one of the sms to sd backup apps before flashing a new ROM, but I could never convince them to use Google Voice because they didn't want to switch to a new phone number.
Are there be any possible privacy issues with storing your SMS logs on this companies servers?
how to send contact via sms, event the stock sms also can not send this kind of thing, maybe Google is missing some thing, isn't it??
will it restore my messages from the cloud to the phone?
