Backup sms messages

[jannievdberg]

I would like to transfer my sms messages from my Samsung i780 to my Blackberry. Does anyone know how I can do that? I am selling my samsung, but dont want to lose my sms messages. Any help would be appreciated.

plug into pc, copy to pc, plug in 2nd phone, copy to phone.

ok, but which software do i use?

Can't you just copy them to the SIM and then put that in the new phone?

I suppose it can work....havent got my blackberry yet. Will ask around and see what people did. I have 2500 sms messages in my inbox though, it may take a while. Can the blackberry hold that many smses in its inbox?

Thats a moviesa lota msgs! U shoulda copied to pc ages ago. Samsung gives software. I did it coupla weeks ago.

I backed up all my sms to pc with Efficasoft backup, but it only restores to WM. What software did you use to backup ur smses to pc?

I am not sure if the software will be able to communicate between the different mobile phone brands and OSes. You could try backing up the SMSes to PC, then switch the memory to sim card and lose a whole bunch of SMSes - then plug the sim into the other phone. After it has copied over the SMSes to that phone's memory, rinse and repeat with a new batch from the computer backup.

I don't take any responsibility though as I haven't tried this.

I used the samsung software. Like the master said, its diferent manufacturers. Cant use it to connect to blackberry. Do u require al dat msgs? Backitup and put the critical ones on da sim. Hopefuly it wil pul through corectly. When i changed brands even my contacts got screwd up!

I use Windows Mobile SMS sync, but not sure whether it'll work on BB. Anyway, here is the link http://www.synergetechsolutions.com/Software.aspx

I also have about 2500 sms to transfer from my E90 to my PC but I can't find my cables or PC suite. Can it be done via bluetooth?

all phones have the function in messages/settings to copy to memory card when chosen, check it out

I believe that the Blackberry phones dont have to option of copying sms from sim to phone....Can someone confirm please?
