Backing up texts

Tue, 15 Nov 2011 22:41:32 GMT

What program can I use to back up texts on my phone? I was using My Phone Explorer with my K800, but it doesn't seem to make a connection with my X10 mini pro.

You best and quickest method is to search the Android Market for "SMS backup" and try one out. Make sure you find out where it is saving (phone memory, memory card) so you know how to get the SMS back

SMS/MMS

if you don't want to use the backup & restore app then

Install "backup SMS" to back up your SMS and MMS to your Gmail

or your SMS use

"backup & restore SMS"

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore&feature=search_result

or for your MMS use "Save MMS"

Call Logs

And for call logs this is great

Contacts

just to play it safe sync your contacts w/ google if you haven't already

open your phonebook

press MENU button -> tap on Send Contacts -> select all -> send it to your email

on your computer

-> download the file -> go to your gmail -> click on contacts -> click on more actions -> on the drop down menu click on "import" -> choose the file -> and click import

Apps

Don't worry so much about backing up your apps

on your computer go to

market.android.com -> log in -> click on My Library -> and send all your apps to your phone
