Backup Nokia N9 Messages
 
My phone has been acting weird lately. It keeps showing messages that are not suppose to be there. It keeps showing updates that are not suppose to be updated. I want to back up all 30k+ of messages from N9. I was wondering if there is anyway you can do that and save them to nokia suite or something else?

30K+ messages on the N9 :eek:

Anyway use the latest Nokia Suite from beta labs to sync all messages to your PC as well as doing a backup...

I know I text a lot because of the various groups I am involved in school lol but Nokia Suite takes hours and makes it seem like its progressing but after a couple hours, I get an error message saying the sync did not happen. Any idea how to fix that?

Did you try the thread i linked? That has a nifty mechanism that I've used previously for both back-up and restore...

Maybe nokia suite can't handle you :p

I wouldn't handle myself either with 30k messages. I saw that thread but in class right now so will try it when I get back home. Just out of curiosity how does it save it? Like what format? and can i put that into my nokia suite?

It saves them in .csv IIRC...

I don't think you can put it into Nokia suite but just save a copy on your PC and you can restore them on-demand...Its in fact several times better than any other solution we have out currently...

Would be nice if someone could figure this out.

I exported my contacts from my N900 to my N9, but the messaging just doesn't feel right - would be nice if I could clean the .db file up a little.
