Backup text messages on MDA Vario

armatage · 14 Nov 2006 at 11:10

I've recently had to do a hard reset on my T-mobile MDA Vario so that I could get picture messaging to work but this caused all my text messages to be lost as well so was wondering if/how you can back-up text/picture messages so that if I have to do a hard reset in the future I can get them back.

Also is it possible to move the location where the messages are saved, i.e. to my storage card?

Thanks

I believe you can change the location to your memory card and from there access them later.

I personally use Jeyo Mobile Companion ($15 from Handango) to backup and restore my SMS messages. I found it a very simple, easy to use program that does the job perfectly.

As far as I know, that only applies to attachment files of emails, not to SMS messages.

There is a messages folder on your handset, however I don't know whether it's possible to put more messages in there and take some out etc.

Regarding the software solution, does it maintain every aspect of the message? I've got some messages I need to keep for legal reasons, and therefore if I was backing them up and restoring them I need to know that their integrity remains and I can still guarantee without doubt the sender from where they originated.
