i have some important messages in my touch pro that i would absolutely loathe to lose, and i'm going to buy a WP7 device as my contract expires this month.
can some kind soul with a working device tell me if this is possible, or is there any article that mentions it?
Thanks
I think the myphone service should do it...

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

Hi. I'm ordering an HTC Desire HD soon after many years running WinMo.
I have my photos and SMS backed up on Microsoft MyPhone. I use Exchange so all my email, calender and contact info will be easy to sync. The same goes for my photos as I have them backed up on my PC. The issue is the text messages (SMS). Is there a way of getting them from my current WinMo phone or from Microsoft MyPhone onto my new Android phone? Anyone tried this before?
Sorry to post again on the same thread, but I was wondering if anyone new an answer to this? I do understand this is a busy forum but I am sure I am not the only one wanting an answer to this one. I have tried to Google to find out if it's possible to get the data from Microsoft MyPhone to an Android phone, or at least (as is what I want to do) get my SMS from my WinMo phone to my new Android one.
Any thoughts will be appreciated!
Googling found this : http://android.riteshsahu.com/tips/importexportmove-sms-messages-from-windows-mobile-to-android . i havent tested, some say it works some doesnt.
Or try sms migrator on android market, i havent tried this either. (Bear in mind this is a paid app)
Thanks so much for this. As I said I did Google and I couldn't find anything and I was also wondering if anyone had any experience. The first link you mentioned does explain how it is possible to transfer sms messages which is what I want to do- so I'll let you know how I get on. Can't do that now as I haven't been able to order the HTC Desire HD but hopefully Orange will have some in stock next week!
Hi,
i'm almost ready to move from Android to WP7 but one important thing i need to make..

so is there any tool to make this transfer happen?

thank you.
Hi,
I have thoroughly checked the forums and there are some full backup solutions out there but my situation is a bit specific.
I have a HTC Titan II WP7.5 with tons of text messages, but the screen is broken and I can no longer see it. I have purchased a new Nokia 920 with WP8 and simply want to get my text messages from my WP7.5 on to my WP8.0 by backing up and restoring to the new phone with USB cable since I can't see the screen on the old phone.
I only need the text messages.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks for any help...
Michael
