Does anyone know how i can write a script for the app "SMS Backup and Restore" so it can backup my texts/conversation threads daily? or perhaps there's another app/script out there that can accomplish this?

Can´t find BackupEverything anymore
I can not restore my backup because the application can not be found in the market anymore...
Does anyone know how to find it?
getandroidstuff.com
seems like Backup Master is really same with Backup Everything. in fact,they use same folder to backup & can restore all backup from Backup Everything.
link for Backup Master in Market :
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.BackMaster&feature=search_result
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I searched and could'nt find anything. Couple questions;
1. After I do a backup with Titanium Backup, and I plan to use another ROM, do I delete what Titanium Backup has already created? I ask because I didn't know if it overwrites files or just adds to them. I don't want my memory filled with Backup files if I decide to change my ROM ever so often.
2. Does Titanium Backup, backup SMS and call logs? I downloaded My Backup from the Market cause I wasn't sure. So whenever I switch ROM's, I just run Titanium and My Backup. Is it necessary to have both?
Thanks for any responses...
EDIT....I sort of found the answer to question 2....about it backing up SMS/MMS...but what about the call log?

1. Backup User apps only. Keep them, when you update your ROM.. batch restore it. Just make sure you didnt backup system because it could cause FCs.
2. No it doesn't, there are alternatives on the market that does backup your SMS. I don't know any since i use Google Voice and all my SMS are sync'd on cloud.
And no it isn't.. if you're using Titanium Backup, I suggest you have the Pro version otherwise it'll be a huge hassle.

Ok, so you're saying that if I already have a Titanium Backup of user apps....when I back up again, it'll just overwrite the current ones?

Yes. And if you want to load the backups, you restore the apps.
Hi,
i switched from my good old SGS1 to SGS3.
I did a backup of my call log and sms with Titanium Backup Pro (Key) "Save to xml"... sms/mms and call log
Moved the xml files to the new phone and tried to restore xml backups.
But... TB opens only an empty text file - no restore no nothing
Did i something wrong?
TIA
Christian
Found a solution myself.
I had to choose auto indirect (2nd option) at the last point at options menu. Something like "problems with backup / restore".
Thanks anyway
Christian

First of all Congrats for ur new SGSIII
Can you tell me how to backup and restore sms and call log in a xml file through titanium backup.
I love Titanium Backup - paid for the full version - but ...
... you are better off using SMS Backup & Restore for your messages. You can set it to auto-backup every day, hour or whatever and even dump the backup onto DropBox.

Yes, Simon is right, for your messages you are better off using SMS backup & restore from the playstore. It is very easy to use.

I think you can do it also with TB on the menu 'Schedule', and then in 'Add schedule'.
But I also use SMS Backup & Restore, I think it's more simple. This to SMS and TB to Apps :silly:
I would rather use SMS backup pro

All well and good for SMS, but how would you backup and restore MMS?
Titanium backup does both. The only other app I found that does both
is "MMS Backup and Restore", but it's full of bugs and I haven't had
much success with it.

I've used the TiBackup SMS/MMS restore and it works great. I don't really need the scheduled backups though, I would just backup before installing a new ROM or something. You could even backup straight to Dropbox and have a backup in case you lose your phone.
Do you mind elaborating how?

I know that I've successfully backed up my sms/mms in Titanium Backup because when I went to restore everything (moving from evo 3d to evo 4g lte so that was a big no-no in itself) all of the sms/mms came over to the new phone. Of course, restoring everything caused problems so I had to undo the operation via factory reset. Now, I'm manually restoring only the elements that I need, but cannot for the life of me figure out where the sms/mms information would be stored. Any insight you can provide would be much appreciated.
Hi,
Is there a program that will let me do this?
Thanks.
Oops, just found the answer: SMS Backup & Restore
I created an XML backup of my messages (SMS & MMS) in titanium backup. However, when I try to restore the file, I get an error, "Data restore failed for "Messages (SMS & MMS)"."
Interestingly, if I delete all my MMS messages and do another backup and then try to restore, it works. It seems that the MMS messages are somehow corrupting the data restore.
Does anyone have any ideas around this? I'm utilizing auto/indirect app processing mode, for the record. It seems like titanium is just having trouble reading it's own files if they contain MMS... not sure why that would be though.
Also for the record, I can't use SMS backup & restore (sorry!), I'm limited to titanium for what I'm trying to do.
[FWIW I'm trying to migrate from hangouts/project fi to native sms - see https://www.reddit.com/r/ProjectFi/comments/5s53vf/tool_export_and_convert_hangouts_smsmms_to/ which outputs a titanium compatible XML file. This file was what was originally giving me trouble restoring in titanium. However, I tried backup & restoring my own sms/mms messages to troubleshoot, which led me to the situation above, completely unrelated to this tool I'm using].
Sorry for the text blob, but I figured I'd give some more info in case anyone cared... Thanks in advance!!
I just started facing a similar issue. SMS/MMS backuped by "SMS Back up and Restore app" on one phone. Restoring on another phone fails. If I do not restore MMS, it works with no issue.
Did you find a solution?
Thanks,

It's been a while, but I managed to figure this out at least: For some reason if I long press on the xml file to restore in titanium, it works. If I just tap it, it doesn't. Trying long pressing... it worked for me. Can't guarantee it will still work this far in the future though, but worth a shot.
