hands free or not?

Hi kAmMa,

is this app able to back up automatically?

is process is periodical or it backs up every text as soon as it receives?

thanks alot
[Android Apps and Games] arminsoyka:
I would very much like to be able to back up to dropbox automatically each day / week. Do you think that's possible? I know you titanium backup pro can backup applications to dropbox.

Any idea when the 'Merge' feature will be added?

I have hundreds of messages on my Tab I would wish to bring in and add onto the messages already on my new SGSII.

[Android Apps and Games] kamma:
v0.8

----

- added merge of SMSs

- code partially rewritten

- some bugfixes
[Android Apps and Games] Beards:
Many thanks for the merge feature kamma.

Merge worked a treat between the Samsung Galaxy Tab & Galaxy S II.

I don't know if you are compiling a list of 'things to do' but I have a few requests if I may add.

Until recently I have been using SMSBackup & Restore.

SMS Backup & Restore is quick, clean and has a few novel tricks up it's sleeve but it misses one vital ingredient.... Merge and this is where you have gained my interest.

Now in order to make BackupSMS Android a real contender against the other Apps currently available what I would like to ask is if you could look into the following features:-

1. View backed up messages (include a total number for each person).

Once you have completed a Backup you are then given an opportunity to either

a. Backup

b. Restore

c. View a Backup

By clicking on View a Backup it will then ask you for which Backup file you wish to load. Once selected it then displays all the SMS messages by name with a total of how many messages for that person.

You then tap on a person and it opens the named list and displays all the messages in a dated form.

What would be novel now is if you could either copy or print off this list of messages.

2. Selected Conversations Only.

An ability to Backup only certain persons.

This would obviously require BackupSMS & Restore reading the SMS persons list.

Once listed you then tick whichever persons you require backing up.

You could then name the backup by either the persons Name, Group or whatever.

3. A Backup Folder.

An ability to backup the file to a chosen directory (i.e. on the external_sd card).

The Samsung Galaxy phones are typical of this as if you simply say backup to sdcard it does not actually backup to an inserted sdcard but the phones internal sdcard memory.

4. An Archive mode where you can add the same backup to the same file.

Speaks for itself.... Saves having bits of a backup here there and everywhere wondering which backup a certain message is on and saves creating multiple backup files.

5. A scheduled backup.

Ideal if you use the 'Archive' method mentioned above.

That way you can forget all about backups and let BackupSMS & Restore worry about when to carry out the next backup.

There.... done. Hope you did not mind and thanks again for the Merge feature. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Beards:
Would have been nice to know you have at least read my comments.

[Android Apps and Games] rachit2588:
The order of msg

Whenever i restore it , the order is getting reversed

Example if the original format is

1

2

3

4

thn after restore it gets

4

3

2

1

and if you send a new msg it becomes

4

3

2

1

5

can you solve this problem..instead of restoring in decending dates can you keep it ascending order..
[Android Apps and Games] A.Priori:
interesting, i will still try the app though :)
[Android Apps and Games] Aitrus:
just tried this out and it does what it says. but having them restore out of order is a bit confusing. which is why i just copied the mmssms.db file from "data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases" folder and the recopied it back reboot and bam. everything is back to normal and in the same order.

- new feature: delete duplicate messages

- some bugfixes
[Android Apps and Games] imi2003:
Hi

Just for some feedback, I can confirm that this app works perfectly on the latest samsung SGS2 ICS ROM I9100XXLPH

I made the backup while GB ROM was running on the phone then updated the firmware and formated everything.

I then had to install the app manually since this app does not auto-install with Google backup. It does not show up in the marketplace either, maybe it needs the ICS compatible flag set?

The app merged the old backed up SMS (3541) with the current SMS (56) on the phone with no problems.

Many thanks to the developer.

Preparing to redo my HTC Hero (iWireless/Sprint)

This program works flawlessly (:good:) on my HTC Hero 200 on my secondary line. My Hero was purchased at Fred Meyer's for iWireless (Kroger family of stores), but operates on the Sprint Network for service. Should work fine as well on the Kyocera Milano (slide-out keyboard) I recently purchased as well to upgrade my primary line.
[Android Apps and Games] ScottHW:
Your App does have a "Delete duplicate SMS" feature, which is exactly what I needed (due to a mistake using SMS Backup & Restore).

It was HELLA slow, > 2 hrs to sort and delete dupes in 7500 SMS (15000 with dupes). But it worked.

I noticed that the app is pretty finicky. Switching to another task, or letting the screen timeout seems to have upset it. Eventually, I just switched to Airplane mode, disabled Screen Lock Timeout, set the phone on the desk and left it for the 2 hrs.

Thought I would have to cobble together some garbage sort+compare routine on an xml backup file. Even if this was long, it was only waiting time, almost no effort at all.

HTC Evo 4G LTE

Sense 4.0

default Sense Messages app

Thanks'd

BTW, it should be pointed out to everyone, everywhere, all the time, that backing up SMS does NOT necessarily backup MMS.

When both SMS and MMS are just threaded together, which I believe is very common in text apps, people can tend to forget that MMS are different.

For the future, I will be using Titanium Backup Pro * ROOT, which has a feature to backup SMS & MMS, including the MMS attachment files, to an xml file.
[Android Apps and Games] lowlow2:
Still a great app !! Thank you for this!
[Android Apps and Games] ineffablepanda:
I just wanted to thank you and say this app is STILL the best at what it does.

That said, is there a way to change the backup/restore target folder? I just got an S4, and all the info is on an external sdcard but it only sees the symlink to internal storage. Guess I'll just use ES to copy the backups over, but it would be nice to choose in-app.

[Android Apps and Games] VenomVendor:
Update for Android 4.4/KitKat and above.

Since there is no support, I have created similar app which deletes duplicate sms efficiently.

Note, there is not fancy UI, just does the job. :cyclops:

Supports from Android 2.2, includes Android-M which needs run-time permissions.

* Doesn't have any ads. :angel:

* No internet permission. :cool:

* Works similar to kAmMa's duplicate deleter. :D

* Size is 32KB.

I was able to manipulate a database using sqlite

and wrote the following script

#stuff

su
sqlite3 /data/data/com.nitrodesk.drois20.nitroid/databases/windroid.db <<SQL_ENTRY_TAG_1
update table
set boolean=0 ;
commit;
.exit
SQL_ENTRY_TAG_1
exit

and called it xxx.sh

i can navigate to the directory and cat the file

cat xxx.sh

shows properly

if I drop in to su and try to execute it I get

xxx.sh not found

chmod 777 xxx.sh

did not help

when I get it to work for sure

i will add it to the phone priortizer app and schedule it.

Don't know about the lingo one. I've got the Merriam webster one and I believe it's more than fine, especially since it comes with pron, so exactly what you want, I believe. In addition, you can add other dics and they all appear under each other. Really cool for any english learner/teacher.

Cool idea for a thread, so:

My country has 2 names: Palestine and Israel :eek:

It is where the three religions came to earth: Islam, Christianity, and Jew

Some parts of it are divided using a huge wall to separate the Israeli parts the Palestinian parts.

We have a lot of Mosques and Churches there.

Jesus Christ was born in a city called Bethlehem and it's where most of Christian tourists go.

I think that's enough for now :)

Hi,

sorry but that's not the right Section. It's a question so its right in Question Section.

But the answer is no. You have to wait for a release from Sony Ericsson.

It's not only Android, each Phone must have its drivers for working proberly with the Operating System. In some cases those are closed source and these things shaping the walls many devs here bashing against.

a coworker of mine had the issue today of the launcher actually expiring and had no way out of his browser, and i guess the launcherpro website was down? anyway, I'm just reposting the link from another website, since I typically come to xda to find answers to stuff like this... either manually type this into your ANDROID browser, or if you could somehow make it to this page from your phone, just click this link... from your phone lol

[Android Apps and Games] tebower:
My LPP is also working fine. ADW or GO launchers would work for people with issues. I was also able to get to the site just fine (launcherpro.com), but yes, the forums were down.

[Android Apps and Games] parabola01:
Same with me - no problems.
[Android Apps and Games] reinbeau:
Here's an update

Seems the developer has screwed up on this one. From this post on Android Forums (this is Fede speaking):

He's generating a lot of ill will from this.:rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] hettbeans:
For some reason, a small percentage of LP users decided to be idiots and not update the app for the last month (0.8.2 came out Dec. 7th) and now the previous version has expired.
[Android Apps and Games] reinbeau:
No, that isn't the problem. They're running an old beta that has expired. Those who use the market version, and those who paid for the app, aren't having the problem.
[Android Apps and Games] jimbobalu:
Can anyone access the launcherpro website? I get a blank page. This is really weird because Fede is usually very responsive.
[Android Apps and Games] reinbeau:
Fede seems to be hiding, this is a PR disaster for him. The best thing to do at this point is to be forthcoming, own up to it, and give clear instructions on how to fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] jimbobalu:
I have to agree, Fede needs to own up to whatever this problem is. Even though I think the vast majority of LauncherPro users like myself have no problem, we keep the app updated and got it from the market. I wonder if this will effect his re-write of LauncherPro he has been promising?
[Android Apps and Games] twisteddan:
Fede is doing a complete Rewrite.

Changes take time.....Not, everything is as easy and as fast as we would all like it to be.

Complications do happen. Its part of the game.

Be Patient......I'm sure he will get it all fixed soon enough.
[Android Apps and Games] reinbeau:
With all due respect, This is more than a little 'complication'. Rewrites do take time, but if your customer base has lost faith in your product because you don't show excellenct support on a critical app like a launcher, you won't have anyone to rewrite for...
[Android Apps and Games] Dodgylegs:
I don't think many will lose faith with Fede at all. And those that do can find another launcher to moan about.

Fede has a very loyal fan base, and most will stick with him as his is one of the best, if not the best, creation on this os.

People will always moan, and then find something else to moan about.

Fede won't have anyone to rewrite the app for?

What a ridiculous thing to say.
