Re: HOWTO: Importing SMS messages from Nokia phones to N900
 
Thank you flux.

Now, smsimporter is working.

I only see one strange thing: in the sms's list, is showing the phone's number instead the name, but when i see the sms's detail, it shows the name.

After running smsimporter, I updated the el.db with sqlite3 with "update events set storage_time = start_time" and the order in the conversation view didn't change (even after a reboot). I'm thinking it uses the ID numbers for ordering, so I suppose I will try to renumber the messages at some point. (..I hope there are no references to the ID-number, it didn't look that way..) However, I will likely try it only once I get to import very many more messages from my old trusty 9300i - once I get its display fixed..

Thanks for this very useful piece of software!
So for us Noobs what do we do with the updates? Is there a zip we can download and save over the smsimporter that was giving segment errors?

Woo-hoo!

rmoravcik and flux: Thank you so much for this tool!!!
This was something I was looking for since the first day I got my N900!
Finally I got all my messages back on my mobile.

Thanks and have a nice christmas :-)

flux, seems like you and me had the same idea :)
I somehow managed to compile a binary for myself using delimiter = malloc(2); and it worked flawlessly for me.

rmoravcik, please incorporate this fix

FINALLY got it to work (& learned a few linux commands too) thanks to everyone that worked on this useful utility!:cool:

Re: HOWTO: Importing SMS messages from Nokia phones to N900
 
hmm nearly there - it seems the terminal commands are working and it seems like it 'did' something however no sms'es have been imported.

I have mms's in my csv document - could this be the issue? Im trying to import 1000 messages too. Anyone else got the same issues?

Re: HOWTO: Importing SMS messages from Nokia phones to N900
 
I try to import about 1200 SMS from my old E90. After them i see new group & message in my N900.
But after a short time the application message started crashing. I had to delete a file el.db and only if the performance was restored. I think there is a limit on the number of messages, after which the program is crumbling.

I had tried this a few days ago with the same result. Could it be perhaps that Conversations caches the order and there just hasn't been a trigger to refresh the records? When rtcom-eventlogger methods are used to insert records, for example, a D-Bus signal is sent to notify applications about the change. Since we modified the db directly, no such signal was sent. That said, I don't know if there is a signal for changes in storage_time. For more details, see http://maemo.gitorious.org/maemo-rtc...es/Eventlogger.

Is there a way to determine what field(s) the Conversations application is using to determine sort order?

Re: HOWTO: Importing SMS messages from Nokia phones to N900
 
Stupid question. But is there a way to export all messages from N900 to csv or any other easily editable format. Rearrange messages and then export them all back to the phone? I unterstood that content from this csv file looks correctly in N900 but the existing messages in the phone are not in right timeline with the csv file content...

Sorry I read this thread trough about 10 times. But still didn't find out what this smsexporter actually does? Any one used it?
