use jeyo mobile companion and you can create folders for sms, not visible on the phone but you can manage them on your pc via jeyo mobile companion.

A.SMS from jgui can create folders and is much better than the default messaging app...but its expensive...US$ 22 :-(

I installed Zenyee Disable HTC Messaging 1.2.CAB so I could create new folders and get the sent notifications back.
It disables HTC messaging so you can use the MS one.
It also disables MMS, so if you need MMS it's probably not a good idea.
Take a look here .... Linky

MMS & Windows Mobile

I don't know if I am missing something here or is there no application freeware or commercial that can be used to backup/restore/save MMS messages in Windows Mobile?
This seems to be a huge gap if there is nothing out there?
I have used SpriteBackup to backup my phone but this seems unable to restore the MMS messages - I've logged a support call with SpriteSoftware but so far they have failled to respond.
Can anybody throw any light on the position re MMS backups?
Many thanks in advance,
Andy.

I know on my TD2 you can save the mms attachments onto your phone, so you could just do that

oh...yeah right
i clean forgot about it since i use spb backup more
thanks for reminding me

From what I have seen and tried I can find no method to restore the SMS from an older 6.5 device to a WP7.
Were you able to find a solution?

Nope-- there are even solutions to import WM 6.5 SMSes to Android, but nothing for WP7- it's far too locked down.

thanks for the confirmation, as I have tried a million things and I even looked at the SMS store and it looks too locked down to even write a app to do it.
Has anyone had success at sync'ing SMS from Exchange? I have got it set up but the messages dont appear to sync to the phone....have I missed something?

Nope, WP7 doesn't support Exchange SMS sync (or SMS sync with anything for that matter).
Ironically this was one of the features added to WM6.5 with Exchange Server 2010, yet its successor (if you can call it that) lacks it.
Might get added in a few years' time, once other more basic deficiencies are addressed.

weird that this phone addresses the joe-average user, and I dont deny it, but not having a restore/backup function is poor and a ovesight....

Hi
Do I understand it correctly that using http://sn1-p3.myphone.microsoft.com/...t.po?mkt=en-GB to upload sms through WM6.5 then download to WP7 is not possible ie does not work?
Thanks

That's correct, one of the best things Microsoft created for WM6 doesn't work with WP7.

If you copy your important SMSes to the SIM card beforehand they will automagically appear on your WP7 handset.

Thought of doing that but couldn't see how to do it on wm6.5 [I have another wm6.5 phone I could copy to sim if it was possible]

wow, surprised to see my thread bumped up
my sms messages run up to the many thousands
not very possible eh?
but then, i guess a suggestion would be to prune them and keep the important ones

[Q] Anyway to save entire SMS Chat from WM6.1 to PC?

Hey everyone,
I've wondering this for a long time and couldn't find a solution to my problem. I have samsung i780 and have upgraded it to windows mobile 6.1. It comes with the SMS displayed as a chat conversation, which is neat. I want to backup all these conversations, as they are.
When I try most SMS backup software,(like iMobile SMS backup or Godswmobile SMS transfer) they backup all the messages, but they don't save it in a conversation way. They split them into sent or received smses, and its really hard to make sense of things and its tiresome.
Is there any software that can save the entire conversation as they are displayed in wm6.1? (i.e sent-received-sent-received etc)
Or at least someone can think of in this way:
In the conversation window, I can select all, and then copy the messages to Microsoft word or Note. The problem is, it shows very few messages at a time(as the screen is small, so only like 7 or 8 are displayed at a time), and I have to keep clicking on 'Older' to go to the very first sms, which is like a 1000 click before. And its tiresome to copy/paste it in the word, and if one small error, you are pushed back to the very recent sms chat.
Cant I just access the main html/xml file on the mobile where all of this is stored? Anyone knows how to retrieve the file where all your SMS chat/conversation is saved?
Thanks

Okay, I found the software.
Jeyo Software is the one. God, I wish I had known such a software existed before. Its just beautiful.
One more thing, any idea how to restore contacts that were saved as .xml?
Thankx
