Unable to restore Titanium Backup of Messaging App in Oneplus 7 Pro - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

I am unable to restore titanium backup of stock messaging app in my oneplus 7 pro. Whenever i try to restore it titanium backup says restore got completed but when i open messaging app it doesn't show any restored sms.

I do this way all the time, mostly it will need a reboot to show the message....

TB is a bit outdated for backups imo, just use google backup with google messaging, nice and easy.

Use "Migrate" tool. Titanium is outdated.
Also you can try enable adb nad adb over lan in settings and try to reatore backup.

Open settings then app and notifications then defaults. Change you sms se3to titanium. Then do restore. Problem fixed. Don't forget to change back your default sms to text again

I did this too but it doesn't work. After doing this when i open messaging app all my backup sms are there for 2 3 seconds and then they keep vanishing one by one within 2 3 seconds all backed up sms are gone.

Did you set titanium default, restore backup, change default to sms app, then open app to read messages.

Yes i did it. Actually whats the main problem is i dont have mmssms.db backup which resides in /data/user_de/0/com.android.peovider.telephony/
Instead i have stock messaging app backup created by titanium backup. Which have bugle_db.db
Whenever i restore stock messaging app from titanium and open stock messaging app it checks mmssms.db thereby removing all the progress i made using restore.
Is there anyway to create new mmssms.db from bugle_db.db

Restore stock messaging app after Titanium uninstal?

How do I restore stock messaging app after Titanium uninstall?
forgot to put in title Android Galaxy S
Quick history
i had an error where the messaging app would force close on boot and when i went to type text. it said mms something was force closing.
I tried to change off swype text and tried a new MMS APN.
then i tried to restore a Backup (made by titanium backup)
still force closing on boot and when i started typing.
I then foolishly uninstalled the app with titanium backup.
And now it just hangs on reinstall .
how can i restore the stock messaging app after Titanium uninstall?
Cheers
----
Also Is there a better backup program out there?
Worstcase: Reflash the stock rom again.
i installed
GO SMS pro
far better than the stock app
Really pleased
then i got loads of TWlauncher errors
so i installed GO launcher which is also flipping great (Google TOP app - there is a video on the marketplace)
So in a way a bad thing has turned out to be a good thing
Its like I've got a new feature packed phone
I think my phone might be on its way out is Titanium backup still the best? I'll make another post

[Q] Restore sms with Titanium Backup

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
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
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.

[Resolved] Titanium backup extract SMS/MMS from nandroid

Device info (just in case it is needed):
Samsung Galaxy Nexus (toroplus)
ROM - Slim Bean
Kernel - Lean Kernel
App - Titanium Backup Pro (purchased key)
My problem:
I have A LOT of SMS/MMS messages on my phone. I like to restore ALL of them between ROM flashes. I usually use Appextractor, but now it is NOT working and does not restore my SMS/MMS. (I am not flashing from MIUI/CM to MIUI/CM so that isn't the issue.) I want to use Titanium backup as my go-to backup and restore app. The only problem is, restoring my SMS/MMS the traditional way (backing up the "app" icon with the sms // backing up to XML) takes WAY too long. Appextractor did this in seconds. Now, I would like to restore my SMS from my nandroid backup from within Titanium backup. I have tried enabling migrate system data, and restoring "Messaging" from the nandroid backup but it does not restore my SMS/MMS.
My question is: How can I successfully restore my SMS/MMS from a nandroid using titanium backup? I have emailed their support and have not gotten a reply in a few days. OR if you know why Appextractor (not the beta) has suddenly stopped working, that would be appreciated too.
PLEASE DO NOT:
I don't mean to sound like a ****, but I am not interested in hearing replies/comments like this:
Why do you have so much SMS/MMS?
Use "this app" to do it, it works! (UNLESS it can restore tens of thousands of SMS quickly, as Appextractor did)
Or suggest not keeping them. I am going to keep them, and would like to find a solution to this problem.
Thanks!
RESOLVED: (thanks to nobody on XDA)
Needed to restore Messaging data in Titanium and NOT messaging. Did not see the actual SMS/MMS before.

Restore "Phone/Messaging Storage" with DATA only in Titanium backup. And make sure migrate system data is checked in preferences.

I found through trial and error why all the apk and nandroid extractors only work on certain parts of image,if you are trying to for example extract your text messages, only the application the phone has registered as the default application for texting is able to make mods. if you switch whatever extracting program you are using in settings to default sms program it will work as it did before kitkat. hope this helps......
P.S
make sure you remember to switch the default back to normal as soon as you are done and reboot your phone before you text anyone,

I made a nandroid using TWRP on my Moto X running 4.4.2. Now I am updated to 4.4.4 and want to extract my texts messages from my 4.4.2 nandroid. I selected the Phone/Messanging Storage for extraction, data only. Titanium B/U extracts the texts fine and the messanging app works fine UNTIL I reboot - after rebooting I can send texts but not receive them anymore.
Any thoughts on why Titanium B/U is messing with my 4.4.4 messanging app?

They're in the format for whatever you exported them for. Soooo 4.4.2 in your case.
For example, restore the 4.4.2 Nandroid, export with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zegoggles.smssync&hl=en , install 4.4.4, reimport with that too. Or restore 4.4.2 Nandroid, update to 4.4.4 'normally', then you got them in 4.4.4 format.

The text restore fine, it is just that after I restore them I can't receive texts. I can send texts, just not receive them. So Titanium B/U is doing more than just restoring my texts, it is messing with the messanging app somehow. I suspect it may have something to do with the APN.
I have seen others post on other forums about having this problem.

FYI - when I used SMS B/U and Restore I could send and receive texts but it couldn't restore all of my texts, either.

You mean return to 4.4.2, unroot and then take the 4.4.4 OTA? I am likely going to try that. Since my Bootloader is already 4.4.4 it should be fine. From what I recall being posted here in the past, the OTA installer will recognize that my bootloader is up to date and move on to the next item and not try to patch a 4.4.2 bootloader.
I will search the thread to make sure I am remembering this correctly, but IIRC the poster who first posted this was very knowledgeable.
I also could try doing it through the Motorola Device Manager.

Did this, ended up with the same problem.
Noob/idiot alert.....
I've just tried to restore my SMS's by TiBu, but I think I've f'd up a bit.
I ticked 'data only' in TiBu and restored 'phone/messaging storage', but it seems restoring from a HTC M7 Sense backup to an M7 5.1 GPE rom doesn't quite work. (I stupidly thought data would be compatible)
Now the phone just keeps popping up com.android.phone has stopped. no matter how many times I click it keeps popping up.
Unfortunately I didn't make a backup in TiBu before trying this out.
I'm sure I can fix it with a factory reset, or at worst a re-flash, but I'm away from my computer and wifi for a few more hours yet.
Is there a way I can un-do what I did, or fix this in some way, in the mean time?
** IGNORE **
I remembered I had a backup of the original rom, so I've just restored that for the mean time.

Sms backup from S4

Hi
Is there a way to get my sms backup (db. file) to work on N5 ?
Will Google put the "old" messenging app in play store ?
Or is there a way to get it on my N5.
I used sms back up and restore from the play store. back up on your S4 copy the file from the sms back up and restore folder on your phone to your pc them put it on your N5. Install sms back up and restore on your N5 and restore SMS. it asked you to make the app the default SMS app click yes then it changes it back once they're restored.

Titanium backUp is best app for backup and restore and even you can create zip file for flash in recovery.
I unlocked and rooted my device and titanium work well.
