Sms backup and restore

tiking said:
I have been trying for many hours to get this stupid 'Nokia2AndroidSMS' to convert the .csv file so I can transfer the xtml file it makes to the Android phone. But it tells me that ovi has not sync the messages, which I know it has already. But the new ovi suite backups all sms, contacts, documents and calender all together. It is ridiculous. I'm guess this is why 'Nokia2AndroidSMS' cannot find the sms file. So I managed to export just the messages to an .csv file but now I do not think Android reads the csv file, does it? And how do I restore all the sms onto the new SGSII phone that has been saved has a .csv file? Any free programs that does this? I have been looking like mad...Now I am getting tired.

I used nokia suite to syc all sms and then tried to use nokia2androidsms. It created an xml file of 59kb only! which of ocurse is very little, right? It does this everytime. It does not seem to work with the sms backup and restore prog of urs..! i tried converting the csv file to xml by other ways

"SMS Backup and Restore" that I mentioned earlier exports to, and imports from, an XML file. If you can convert your .CSV file to an .XML file, SMS Backup and Restore should be able to import from it. I've never tried this myself, but it's worth considering.

I've found the developer to be very helpful in the past.

I'm thinking of using this program because my wife doesn't wasnt to lose her 8000 text messages store on her Cappy (I'm going to update her phone to GB)

Will SMS Backup and Restore backup MMS messages as well?
