Can restore SMS from WM6.1 to HD2 by using PIM Backup? - General Questions and Answers

I just get my HD2, i try to restore PIM such as contact,sms,appointment.... from my old phone tytn2 to HD2 by using PIM back up.
Contact,Task and appointment can restore successfully.
But after i restore sms, my HD2 like hang already!!!
i got few thousand sms to restore la, but there is no problem with tytn2!
Is it the message for WM6.1 is different with WM6.5?

In short yes. I would never restore sms to winmo 6.5 from 6.1 as going from unthreaded to thread always messes things up! HTC messaging in winmo 6.5 also doesnt like this (restoring text). I would also consider why do you need to keep 1000's of texts on ur device anyway? Print the off or just keep them archived, why choke up ur memeory and storage?

How do I backup (and restore) my MMS?

Hi everybody.
I've 2 TyTNs.
The first has xda-live 0.2
The second has the standard italian rom.
After flashing the first I've lost all my messages (I was trying to restore a backup made with SPB Backup) but it didn't work at all.
Before flashing the second I'd like to backup (on WM5) and restore (on WM6) all data.
For Contacts I use NS Contact Backup (I prefer it to outlook)
For SMS I use SMS Backup but it works for SMS only.
For Outlook Emails I use Activesync.
What can I use to backup MMS on WM5 and restore them on WM6?
(I already tried SMS organizer but it hangs. )
Thanks anyone.

tnx rudegar but I already tried that.
My problem is that I'm trying to backup on WM5 and restore on WM6.
Standard backup programs don't work (even "Sprite Backup" fails restoring MMS both in normal and in "device upgrade" mode)
(the restore goes ok but the "MMS" account disappears)
Maybe there's something to change in the registry?
Any hints on how to fix this?
How do I make the "MMS" account appear again?

contacts not working!

What's Up? Just have a quick question about going from wm5 to wm6. I had tried to transfer my contacts by just moving the pim file over like I have always done in the past. This time it just makes my screen crash on wm6 has anybody else had this problem?

The PIM files of WM5 and Wm6 are NOT compatible. YOu have to go the normal way - syncing. So hardreset - new partnership and active sync.
SOrry - only way - i guess.
ahhh alright thanks

Or... you can install PIM Backup on WM5, take a backup with it, then install WM6 and then run PIM Backup there to restore you contacts, addresses, SMS, phone log, etc... This works since it does not restore the actual PIM but uses a CSV (or similar) type file to backup and restore from. Very handy for moving between versions and roms.
nice moved everything right over. thanks

Thread SMS transfering help please?

So, I want to transfer my old palm threaded sms text to the windows 6.1 threaded sms software but I am not sure why it is not working. My old device had wm 6.1 with the palm threaded sms installed and all my text are in the palm threaded sms one. So I then back up my files using spb backup and I am pretty sure the text is backed up. My new device has wm6.1, but with the windows threaded sms software. So anyway I can get the old texts on to the new device? Thank you.
wow thats a new one on me, why did you have palm threaded text running on wm6.1 and not use the windows threaded text, unless the rom was cooked i guess? Not sure thats possible my friend, i will think about that one..

Transfer SMS to windows mobile 6.5

Hi guys, I recently upgrade winmo 6.5 for my O2 atom life. I have used Effcasoft backup to backup all my SMS before trying to flash new rom. However, it seemed the backup file (.exe file), which was created by Enffcasoft cannot work on winmo 6.5. How can I transfer SMS from windows mobile 6 to windows mobile 6.5. Those SMSs are very important to me.
p.s. If you have setup file of Jeyo sms backup (the sms backup software were available in original rom of o2 atom life from seeo2), pls send it because I also used that software to backup my old SMS
I always use ppc pim backup utility(free) to backup my pim. Very useful program. It works on both 6.1 and 6.5. It is actually portable program. Put it anyware in Yiur device and it will work.
