How to recover deleted sms text messages using iMessage.

I accidently deleted an entire text conversation on my iPhone, and would like to recover it.  I understand I can restore a backup from iCloud but the last back I made was over 6 months ago and I do not want to lose the last 6 months of data when i back up the whole phone. But i noticed that in iMessage (on my macbook air) the entire conversation I want to restore is still there. Does anyone know of a way to either....
1. Restore the iPhone SMS conversation using the iMessage version  or
2. Restore only SMS conversations with iCloud without replacing the rest of the phone data
thanks.

1. no
2. restoring from a backup is all or nothing.

    iOS 5 handles texts differently than previous versions.  Resetting the network connections helps, but that didn't seem to solve your problem, and neitherdid the simple reset. 
    Try deleting old messages from the messages app, then after clearing up a lot, just do a simple restart of your phone.  If you want to be extra sure, try resetting your network connections again.  I had this same problem.  Your last option would be a complete restore of the phone, but I don't think we'll have to go that far.

    Do you have a back of the Q5 made from before the deletion of the messages?
    If so, restore the backup.
    If not, they are gone.

    If you have backed up your iPhone before the jailbreaking, then you can recover contacts and text messages by restoring your iPhone with the iTunes or iCloud backup file.

  • How to recover deleted sms in 6275 CDMA?

    My kid accidentally deleted smses from my Nokia 6275...Can anybody tell me how can I recover those deleted smses...Thanks

    It is not possible for the user to recover deleted messages on that model.
    The only people that can do it are professional data recovery agencies which you can find by searching google.  It will cost a lot of money and will most likely leave the phone unusable after the data has been recovered.  Also if you have been using the phone for messages since they were deleted it will now be almost impossible for even them to do it.

  • Delete old text messages and iMessages in iOS 5.1?

    On my iPhone, I noticed that the "Other" file in iTunes had grown.  I also remember hearing that "Other" was your app data (like Angry Birds high scores), Text messages/iMessages, and so on.  I was wondering if it was possible to delete older Messages (pursay any messages older then a month ago) and not the newer ones.  Please let me know.  Thanks.

    Other includes data such as iPhone settings, contacts, calendar events, Safari bookmarks/cache/cookies, all email and email attachments, SMS/MMS/iMessages, notes, data created and stored by a 3rd party apps.  You could go through and delete older messages but I doubt that would reduce the size of Other very much.  If Other is getting quite larege (> 2 gigs) then it's possible that it is corrupted.  If this is the case you backing up your phone and restoring it will often fix this.  Follow this guide if you wish to do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.

  • Why can't I forward text messages using iMessage to my email address?

    I recently upgraded my cell phone to an iPhone 5s.  I'm using iMessage and am unable to forward text messages to my email address.  Sometimes they deliver fine but on the whole they won't go through to my email.  Can anyone tell me why?  Or what I can do to get them to forward?  Thank you!

    Do you just mean while you are in the car? Or do you mean while you're connected to a system in the car? What happens when you try? Have you consulted your dealer to make sure you have the most up-to-date firmware on your car system?

  • How i can recover deleted sms from nokia 3603

    Hi
    can any one help how to recover deleted sms from nokia 3603. any idea
    please i need your support?
    does Nokia provide this service?
    please hellllllllllp me
    thanks all

    Unfortunately it's not possible for the user or nokia to recover deleted messages.
    If you haven't been using the phone you could google for data recovery services in your country but they are not cheap. Also the process of recovering the data will most likely destroy the phone. If you've been using the phone for SMS messages then it's most likely too late for specialists to recover them.

  • 8300 SIM card is full! Please delete some SMS Text Messages.

    I have had my BlackBerry Curve since December of 2008. It has recently started acting up, and my main problem is that it claims the SIM card is full.
    Options
    SMS Text Text
    Leve Messages on SIM Card: No
    I haven't any contacts stored on my SIM. What gives?
    Message Edited by afawcett88 on 09-04-2009 01:59 PM

    I finally figured out how to delete SMS text messages from the SIM card.  Open a text that you sent or you received from someone.  Open the menu then "view folder" option.  All of your sent and received text messages will be stored here and can be deleted.

    How do I delete SMS text from the hard drive of a iPhone 3GS

    If you want to delete the messages from within the text app, swipe over the name or number of the sender and hit delete.
    If you are afraid that someone will be able to restore them by ckecking your HD, you will have to set up the phone "as new device" or choose "erase all content and Settings" in Settings/General/Reset. But this willerase the whole phone, not only your text messages.
