Ungroup SMS, sort SMS by date, display SMS one by one

Hi everybody ! ^^

I'm trying to make my girlfriend change her phone before she looses her datas.

And she has weird tasts : she wants her SMS sorted one by one by date.

Is there an app that "ungroups" text-messages, that displays them one by one (free or with purchase, doesn't matter) ?

I've searched for a long time and didn't find...
 
For anyone that runs across this thread, the solution is this:

1. Install SMS Backup & Restore app
2. Backup all your SMS messages (and call logs if you want)
3. Use a program where you can select all messages in one tap like Chomp SMS and delete them all. Note that you will lost any messages you received after the backup completed and before you delete all your messages. (None in my case.)
4. Use the SMS Restore function, Advanced options, and select the date you don't want any messages restored that are earlier than that date.

The only probably I ran into is my Might Text app went crazy delivery notifications to my Windows PC for every incoming message restored so I uninstalled the Mighty Text app on the phone temporarily so it would stop treating them as new messages.
