Help Transferring sms/mms to replacement phone

[xrayvision]

Hi, folks.

I had a problem with my Galaxy S4 Verizon sent me a new one which I received today. I would like to have all of my texts from the old phone transferred onto the new one.

I tried using SMS backup and restore, but they don't yet have the feature of restoring the MMS messages. I would like to open up my texting app on the new phone and see all the texts just like on my old phone.

Any ideas on how I can do this? Thanks.

Samsung Kies will do this. If you don't already have it on your PC it's available on Samsung's site.
