Save Text Permanently?

How are you guys saving your text threads between roms? It's the only thing I seem to have trouble backing up. Titanium backup always gives me an error when I want to restore, SMS backup+ just doesn't work very well. and I'd also love to save my MMS pic msgs if possible. Any and all suggestions will be attempted and appreciated Thank you.
Also, Call logs Titanium backup failed me there as well. Any Suggestions?

I use SMS backup and restore

I use MyBackup to back up my SMS and MMS from my Evo 3d to my Samsung S3. No issues. If I'm not mistake it can also do call logs but havent need to do this one yet so I dont know how well that one works.

My backup root. Saves SMS as well as MMS

I like sms backup+ which backsup into your Gmail under a label, as you get and send texts. Then use sms backup restore between roms

SMS Backup+. Backs up my texts to my Gmail as they're received. No worries about ever losing my messages again or backing up before flashing a rom
I save MMS attachments as I get them so I wouldn't know about that.

I use this also works great except for no mms support yet. The same developer has a call log backup app that works great to.

You can try Backup to Gmail.

[Q] Text messaging app question

As someone who keeps flashing different roms, titanium backup is a life saver. One thing I can't get it to do is restore all my texts each flash. Anyone have any suggestions for an app that can do this?

Mybackup root from the play store. You can backup SMS, MMS, APN settings, call logs, and other settings. I use it for those mentioned above.

Titanium Backup backs up and restores my text messages successfully with each rom flash I do.

I use sms backup +
It backs up sms/mms/call logs to your gmail account so its good in that I can limit the number of aged texts sitting on my phone knowing everything is backed up and also I can use gmail search to find any aged text I want quickly.
The auto backup feature is also handy once its set you can forget about it.
Restoring is also quick and easy.

I don't it's gonna work like that. You could use an app called sms backup and restore, but that app doesn't restore mms.

How to export sms and import to another device?

Hello, will buy HTC One and I want to import sms messages from my Note 2. Is there any way to do that?
Thank you

You can use an app like 'sms backup & restore' and move the backup archive to the new phone.

Whatsapp history

Hi guys. I just gt my note 2 and i moved from htc sensation. I had been trying to restore my whatsapp chat from my htc to my galaxy note 2.
So what i did was copy the whatsapp folder in my htc and paste it in my galaxy note 2. However, when i install the whatsapp on my note 2 and tried to restore the history, it says its not compatible. So I just get to restore the images but not the chat. Anyone have any ideas on how can i have this problem solved.
I have searched through the web, but stil i couldnt get an answer. So need some advice from the xda member. Thank you very much.

Use your htc sensation to do a backup of your whatsapp chats then copy the whole whatsapp folder to your note 2(internal storage) install whatsapp and restore your messages.

What I did when I moved from S2 is I made a backup of Whatsapp with Titanium and then restored it on Note 2. I had also copied all the files/folders on the card.
This worked for me.
Try this it may work for you.
