If u didn't backup before u flashed, then u may be out of luck.
All I can suggest either go on line to look at ur up to date calls on ur provider's website
And/or
Start using Google voice so no matter ROM u flash, the call log will be there as well as ur SMS and voicemails
And/or
Download one of the many apps that will just backup and restore ur call logs.
Good luck

Hey guys i need some help, i want to install a fresh rom and just want to restore my Texts(sms) and contacts, any idea how to ? i try restoring SMS but it never comes back, but if i do the whole restore, i get my texts back
Thanks, BTW i got the pro Version
The trick is to find the CORRECT file(s) to restore. For example, I use Handcent for SMS. So I restore the Handcent app & data and then all of my SMS comes back.
Note: in order for you to see your contacts after restoring them, you need to reboot. (At least I do!)

Have you tried restoring the mms.apk data? I know you need that file to send sms so maybe they are stored there. If you type contacts into the edit field it should bring it 3 or 4 .com options restore data in the first or second one and reboot and your contacts should be there,j just did on my girlfriends transform but cant remember which one I restored get contacts with.
For the future it is easier to export your contacts to your sd card and download gosms to backup your sms

I'll try that and let's hope it's the right file.
Hey guys, I'm back with another question.
Little info about the phone first.
I'm running MikShift v1.01
Kernal 2.6.32.21-gbd7abbd
I'm not getting Sprint's Visual Voicemail on my phone. It just text me and says I have a new voicemail. Is there a way to add this on? I've tried downloading MikShift v1.1, but everytime I do, it still says v1.01
Also, I've downloaded cyanogen mod7. The only problem is, when I flash to it, none of my messages or contacts come with it. Is there a way to load these on once I transfer over?
One last question. Is there Kernal I'm running current? Or is there another one I should be running at this time?
Thanks in advance for your help. Will "thanks" with any info given.
Thanks again!
Well for the voicemail u have to get the sprint voicemail apk. And install that ..and if u want ur contacts saved u can use an app called my backup from the market or just go to ur contacts and then hit menu and export them to ur SD card. That exporting method works on sense and cm7 and whenever u wanna put ur contacts back just go to the contacts app and then hit menu and import the contacts from ur SD card
Edit : oh and for ur messages u can also back them up with that my backup app from the market.or just look for SMS backup or something

Ok. I just went ahead and went with google voice after reading some reviews. I want to avoid the constant error messages from Sprint.
As far as the backup methods you suggested, I tried "my backup" and did a complete backup. Then when I loaded cyanogen mod7, I went into file manager and attempted to load it. It started to reboot and it stopped at a triangle with an exclamation point inside of it and the android guy. It just say there for 10 minutes. So, I assumed that means something was wrong.
Any insight on this? Thanks for your help on this too!

no u have to load ur data back using the same mybackup app..and i suggest u restore from a backup if its still doing that. i have no idea what could of caused that. just restore from a backup,install cm7, then use the mybackup app to reload all ur contacts and messages. and if u want ur apps backed up too use titanium backup. i use mybackup for contacts and messages then i use titanium backup for apps

I think I may give up on these CM roms. Maybe I'll just stick with the Mik roms. I don't have any problems with them. Plus, they should have a sense with GB up and going, bug free here soon.
I appreciate your help though!
I wanted to install a custom ROM.
I recently had a Samsung Infuse 4G and it was easy to copy everything over as it has a similar/same firmware.
There are some things I wanted to copy over when installing a new ROM, mainly call logs and text messages and I also like the Samsung contacts app.
Is that possible?
Or do I need to use SMS backup and give up on the call logs?
it is usually not a good idea to restore system data when you flash a new rom so I'm going to guess trying to restore any system data from a different device might not be a great idea

Ritesh Sahu makes SMS backup & restore, also Call logs backup & restore. I use them both to retain messages and calls. Nothing for mms though.

Restore system apps? BAD idea.
Depending on which ROM you're looking will determine if you will have the ability too use the Samsung Contact app. MOST of the current ROM's are not based off of Samsung, in that case you would not be able to use it.
For backing up SMS/MMS/Call logs, I use SMS Backup+. It does them all, and it's free. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS56ZWdvZ2dsZXMuc21zc3luYyJd

how can i access them
You access them through your device. I.e., when you install a new rom, do a recovery, or log from a new device, apps, settings, etc will sync automatically.
You can't access them directly as far as I'm aware.

As far as that issue..... if u made a nandroid backup before u flashed then it will be there. Or I just go to sprint.com and it has call logs there once ur bill posts.
For the future.... use Google voice. It backs up everything. Just install it and then set it up via desktop version to save it all.
Its saved me multiple times especially during my flash-aholic days.
Good luck
