Aug 5, 2013

my phone (lg vortex) is malfunctioning terribly, it's about two years old and it's about time i get something new. there's only one thing stopping me. i want to be able to keep my text messages, at least the text messages from one specific contact. so are there any trustworthy apps or anything where i could switch them over to a new device??

how i would go about doing this. it doesn't have to be free. i just want to keep my messages, and be able to restore them to the new phone somehow.

General :: Trying To Transfer Text Messages To New Phone

Feb 12, 2013

My wifes ZTE Blade 1 phone broke (graphics chip broke) but have a spare ZTE Skate. Luckily I have a clockworkmod image of the broken phone & have extracted the data from it to get the mmssms.db & telephony.db files.

However, when I paste them over the exsiting files (have root etc) & reboot I get force close errors & have to replace the old files back.

There is no way to boot the old phone & backup the messages - the only way to get the messages back is to get the mmssms.db to work.

General :: Can Cell Phone Send Text Messages On Its Own

May 14, 2014

I received text messages from my husband's phone # but he swears he didn't send them, they said: busy right now, talk to you later. Is there something in the settings that he activated without knowing what it was, because one of his co-workers got the same text right.

General :: How To Get Text Messages From Phone With Dead Screen

Jul 1, 2013

People are still sending me texts even though I can't read them. I can still hear notification sounds. I've gotta get a replacement quick, but I also need to get the important texts I missed. Is there any way I can get them through my mac?

To be clear, the screen is completely blank but I can still unlock it via touch pattern. It takes a few tries but Android File Transfer on the mac will tell me if it can or can't connect. If it can't, I just try again and I can get it. So the touch part still works, it just doesn't show any information.

The phone is a Galaxy Nexus. When I connect it to my Mac, I can see the files in it via the Android File Transfer window. However, I can't find the texts here.

I have the Android SDK installed and I was told I can do this: adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db..However the device shows up as offline when I do adb devices. I can't figure out a way get it showing up as online without being able to use the screen.

General :: Auto Forward Text Messages (and Respond) From Personal ATT IPhone To Work Android Phone

Jun 10, 2013

I am a longtime iPhone user and I have recently been given a Samsung Galaxy S3 by my employer. In the past I have just used my old Android phone for Tethering with FoxFi so I can have web access at work on my laptop. I literally never made any phone calls with it for over 2 years. I have had the calls forwarded from my Verizon Android phone to my ATT iPhone since the day I got it.

Currently I have a (PERSONAL) iPhone 4 on AT&T with a 3G connection and I have this (WORK CELL) Samsung Galaxy 3 on Verizon 4G LTE.
I would like the ability to fully test out the S3 and leave the iPhone at home if I so choose. Call forwarding either way is not a problem at all. I can forward my iPhone personal calls to my work cell and I can forward my work cell calls to my iPhone (Currently this is how I have it). Call forwarding works great but I am looking for a way to handle text messages in a similar manner.

I would like to have the ability to send and receive text messages using my personal number from my Android Phone. I have Google Voice installed on both phones but I cant seem to get it to work at all or I am not setting it up correctly. I would not mind having texts show up on both devices or in my Gmail inbox. There has to be a way to do this. That way if I leave either phone at home it not a big deal I don't have to carry two phones. Nobody ever texts my work number, my only texts received are to my personal cell.

HTC Desire :: How To Switch Off Predictive Text On Phone?

Every time I try to type anything, every single word results in the predictive text box appearing giving suggestions which most of the time are wrong. After 30 words or so, it becomes so sluggish that it can take 30secs+ before I can type the next word.

General :: Pasting As Plain Text To Prevent Text Messages Converting To MMS?

Jun 24, 2013

If I need to paste text from another app in my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy SII, O2, Jelly Bean), like from Google Keep or Docs, into a text message it tends to convert from an SMS to MMS. This leads to a charge for me as my SMS messages are included in my tariff but I have no allowance for MMS messages. I presume that this might be something to do with character encoding or other formatting data that is pasted in, but that is only a guess.

Is there any way to stop short messages from being converted to MMS messages like this:? I couldn't find any 'paste clipboard as plain text' option in Android Jelly Bean.

Jan 9, 2014

I read that many people in my situation can't text/ receive messages with iphone because of the tricky iMessage.

But my friend's iphone 4s cannot receive 20-50% of my texts, could it be a network issue?

My old Iphone 4s' mother board was dead so ofcourse I did not turn off iMessage.

HTC Eris :: Phone Sends Blank Text Messages / Phone Faulty - Can Change?

Nov 23, 2009

I was surprised that I really couldn't find much on this, but I can't be the only one with the problem. My Droid Eris is sending blank text messages repeatedly. Is the phone faulty or is there some setting that I can change. I downloaded ChompSMS hoping that would fix it, but it doesn't appear to. When I open my text messaging program, many times it will send a blank text to the last person I texted. The other day, I turned the phone off and turned it back on and it sent a blank text at the exact time I turned it on.

HTC Hero :: Android Version 1.5 / Cannot Delete Text Messages Phone Freezes

May 5, 2010

I got my HTC Hero a while ago, it is running Android version 1.5. Now my problem is, I've never really deleted any of my texts, so now I've got loads of texts stored on the phone and if I try to delete them, the phone just crashes, it either just freezes up completely or comes up with an error message saying that it could not delete my texts!

Ive tried deleting texts by one person at a time, but as soon as it reaches somebody that has over around 100 texts, it stops. I've tried hooking the phone up to my laptop but I can only see the things that are on my memory card! Is there any way that I can hook up the phone to the computer and see all the texts there and delete them from there?

Android : Receive Quite Few Text Messages Off Companies Who Send Them Using PC - Appear As From Company Name Rather Than As Phone Number

Jan 4, 2010

Basically, I receive quite a few text messages off companies who send them using a PC, and so they appear as from the company name, rather than as a phone number. For example, texts from T-Mobile appear as from "T-Mobile". However, for some reason every text I get off a company starts a new thread, rather than all being in the same thread.

HTC Hero :: Export Text Messages From Phone

Jan 13, 2010

My Hero (latest Tmobile firmware version) is getting really slow, and I'm thinking of doing a factory reset on it. However, I would like to export the text messages, into CSV format or similar. Any readable format would do. I have always done this with my Nokia phones before. Does anyone know a way to do this? I like the phone (besides the camera) but it is getting slow, despite using taskiller, only installing about 7 market apps ever, and clearing the cache of those apps regularly.

HTC Incredible :: Phone Won't Vibrate To Notify Text Messages

May 7, 2010

Hey, I was playing around with my Incredible today, and to my dismay I have made it so my phone does not vibrate when I receive text messages.

I looked through all the other threads and they didn't help.

I've gone through the sms settings and turned vibration "on"

I even have it in vibrate mode. that didn't work.

regular mode. didn't work.

I fixed it just in case anyone else runs into this problem:

Download "sound manager" open the app, click your "menu" button and click "vibrate options"

You'll see that vibration notifications are turned off.

General :: Import Text Messages From Blackberry 9900 To Android?

Jul 27, 2012

I am trying to move my text messages from my blackberry 9900 that I was using to my new android (G2) that I have transitioned to.I did find a program "blackberry 2 android" that sounds like it would be perfect but it gave me an error message so I am awaiting a reply from the developer.

I have never moved texts so I don't know how or what the exporting / importing process looks like. I know there is this app/site out there, but I would rather not buy an app for a one-time thing.
