Restoring SMS from backup

Hi there
I was having some problems with my Tytn (MDA Vario 2) so did a full backup, hard reset, and reinstalled my software/contacts. I don't want to duplicate the problems I was having before so didn't want to restore from the backup.
However, the thing I would really like to replace from my back-up is my SMS history. I am using the Palm Messenger app, and I am sure that I just need to restore a specific file, but can't work out which one.
Can anyone help?

Hello
I tried make a backup of the file with Spb Backup but with this soft I can't see the file, with Resco Explorer I see that it`s a hide file and I can't modify it.
Regards
I use Sprite Backup to do a main backup of all files and settings, incase of a hardreset. PIM backup is usefull for contacts and emails etc if you flash ur rom and cant use a full backup due to different os.

restoring sprite backup on different device

Hi All,
I need your help.
I had to send my HTC Haiser to service and I did a backup with Sprite Backup.
Today I received my phone back. They exchanged mainboard, so when I wanted to restore data it gave me the message that it is different phone and it needs some "upgrade files" - i don't have them - and the restoring did not work - my first mistake
Recently I had to reinstall my pc and after, I didn't synchronize with phone - my second mistake
Reasuming: I have a backup file, I want to restore my contacts. I've installed sprite explorer and recover pim.vol file but don't what to do with it?
How can I get my contacts back???
Please help!!!
Thanks
Piotr

Hi,
Sprite BU can only restore data to the same phone with the same OS. Even an upgrade fom WM6 to WM6.1 is killing the backup. Best thing you try is sending the backup.exe file to your PC and try to open it with Universal Extractor .

Hi,
Check the properties, and try to open it in Notepad. Look at the structure and see if you can save it as *.csv which can be imported in Outlook and then synced by AS.

If the PIM file has been extracted, should it not be the case just to copy to the device?
