Hi guys,
I just got my new Nexus 5X and I want to transfer over all my SMS/MMS from my old Nexus 5.
Transferring SMS is easy as pie. But from my previous experience when I upgraded from old Nexus 4 and Samsungs, transferring MMS ain't so simple.
I want to transfer over all my grouped/threaded MMS conversations intact.
In my previous experience, transferring MMS grouped messages scrambles them and splits up all the messages on the new phone. I really hope to keep the groups threaded and intact this time. Is that possible? Does anybody have any experiences?
Try SMS Backup & Restore. It worked when I migrated everything from my HTC One

I recently had to get my HTC Tilt 2 replaced with another unit and I have tried over 4 programs, including Microsoft's My Phone to backup/restore my SMS messages from the old phone to the new one. The process works every time with every program but with ONE quirk. One of the things that I loved about Windows Mobile was the new SMS threading...being able to see my sent messages threaded into their received messages. But EVERY time I restore the SMS messages to the new unit, I lose this feature. How do I get my SMS messages to re-thread after they've been restored using any one of these programs? (I've used imobiletools sms backup, rescoe backup, Godswmobile SMS, 3G Mobile SMS Backup, etc)
I just want them re-threaded....but all of the messages are there. But until i can do this, I don't want to take the chance and make the full switch yet.
HELP!!!!

Try this:

If this doesn't work then search for Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3. This has an option within it to enable/disable threaded SMS.
I tried the registry edit already and it didn't work.
Any other ideas? From what I've heard, the registry edit is for Windows Mobile 6.1 only, I have 6.5?
Hello all. I've searched the web for this problem, but can't seem to find anyone else with it. So I thought I would throw this out there and hope someone has a solution.
I recently upgraded from a 2.1 stock ROM to a 2.2 ROM. Before upgrading, I backed up all my data (SMS, MMS, call log) with MyBackup Pro by ReWare. Upon restoring the data, after installing the custom 2.2 ROM (the most recent leak), I do not have any of my MMS pictures from non-verizon contacts. They just show as blank spaces in my messaging conversation.
Messages from my Verizon friends still show the pictures, but messages from AT&T friends do not. Very frustrating since many of my family are non-Verizion.
Anyone have any advice? Do images just stay stored on a server until I choose to save them? I don't know how this stuff works.
just a quick addition to bump this back up...
It happened to both my wife's and my phones, and with hers I was simply going from one 2.1 ROM to another, so apparently it has nothing to do with the change in versions. And on both of our phones it is only the contacts from AT&T for which our MMS images and videos are missing. This is odd. Anyone?
Up until recently I have been able to send and receive emojis with a friend who has an Iphone 3GS. I'm sending from a Galaxy S3, AT&T Stock Rooted rom, using Go SMS with the Go SMS Emoji plugin.
Friends Iphone is using IOS 6.0.1.
My Go SMS updated yesterday, so I am thinking it may be a problem with Go SMS. Just wanted to see if anyone else is having similar issues.
Just did some tests with some Iphone users, 3gs, 4 and 5. All of them can send me emojis and I see them. But they don't see mine, just the encoding.
Hello everyone,
Just got my Zenfone 2 and I want to transfer all of my text messaged, including the photo attachments to my new Zenfone 2. My old phone is the Samsung Galaxy Light, with Jelly Bean. I also want to transfer my contacts but I want to keep the grouping I have made on my old Galaxy Light.
I could transfer the text messages but not the photo attachments. I also cannot get all of my message to go either. Some of the conversations will have missing newer text.
Thanks.
Is Data Transfer not pulling it all across? You could try this one and see if it gets it done for you: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lenovo.anyshare.gps
The CLONEit option sounds like it might be just what you are looking for.
Does anyone know an iPhone to zenfone 2 text transfer?
Hello,
My Note 4 suddenly did not turn on (hard brick). I received a new device but had two worries (could not reset the old device, could not transfer from it).
Many of my apps autoloaded on the new Note (thanks Android). Pictures, videos, recordings, and screenshots on internal memory were gone and so were old text messages and voicemails. Is there no chance Android/Google stored this automatically somewhere? How do I check?
Why are pending text messages or voicemails not shown? How would I know who tried to contact me in the weeks that the old phone is broken?
In the future I'll save everything (pictures etc...) to the external SD. Can I do daily auto-backups with SMS Backup & Restore for texts? What about voicemails? Is there no way to prevent texts in transit from getting deleted - if my phone doesn't work how can I save texts I've never seen or read??
Thank you.
If you have set up a Samsung account on your phone it will back up sms mms every 24 hours but only on wifi. As far as voicemail if you use the stock voicemail app you can have it set up to forward all voicemails to your email address. From there you can listen to them through your email account.
