Hello, everyone when I connect my device to KIES I can't backup my SMS Messages (see picture)
I'm running the lasted version of KIES ''2.3.0.12035_16''
Thanks in advance
Kies v2.3 doesnt have an option to backup text messages. Try SMS Backup apps from the Play Store. There's also a Gmail integration add-on to the app SMS Backup and Restore which sends your backup to your Gmail inbox.
Or you could try installing an older version of Kies. Versions older than 2.0.

when i restore the back up file my email doesnt workhave all the folders just cant download new meassages, but does when i create a new account, and my sms well i can send but not receive. using spirite back up
You MUST get the latest version of Sprice Backup. You probably have version 2. You need at least Version 3.
This attachment will fix your problem about not being able to receive any SMS messages but will clear out your existing SMS messages (and possibly all of your e-mails too but I don't know).

SMS backup & restore on the Market. It saves your SMS on the microSD card and it's free!
Try MyPhoneExplorer. Install the PC software in windows and the android app by the same name from the market. Let's you completely manage your phone from your computer.
Is it possible? I want to delete most of the messages off my phone, but have access to an archive of them on my laptop.
Anyone used the gmail backup solution?
there's an app called Life Saver in the market, it makes backup of your SMS and Call Log, then you can find and transfer the backup file to your PC
Yep. The mentioned LifeSaver and SMS Backup & Restore both work. The GMail solution for backup works fine too (done with +1000 messages to date).

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

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.
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.
