or actually you want to "export"? then the file doesn't need to exist

hi how can we merge two or more files from the backup.
during the backup i rec'd the error "the background thread has stalled" due to which the newer backups are smaller file sizes than the first backup. the new backups contain new smses and less than 1/3 of the old smses. so i want to merge these files and import them back.
thanks for your help

cat 1st 2nd | sort -u -k3 -t, > new
to merge two files. (-u is for unique, -k3 is for sorting by date, -t, is for separator ,)
with multiline sms, it's much easier if you copy the files to your windows/linux/mac to process. I can provide a python script if you need

Thanks for the great app!!
As an earlier poster asked, is there any chance of doing the same for Notes? Is it a similar process or too involved?I would do it if I could!!
Also, so I can wipe my phone and have confidence that I can restore all my sms's as new?
