[ N73 ] Cannot backup SMS from NBU file

Question

Dear all.
I have a N73 phone. yesterday, I want to up my firmware's phone. So I backup my data ( contact, messages, calendar,.. ) to a NBU file ( I use Content Copier in Nokia PC Suite ).
After that, I restore data from NBU file. But, only contact is backup, and SMS cannot be backup.( I use ABC amber NBU converter to view NBU file, i still view my SMSs ).
Who know what happend? And what will I do to restore my SMSs?
Thanks a lots!

Answer 1

Since you save your SMS in the memory card, the utility will not backup the messages. It copies whatever is stored in your phone memory alone. After firmware update, your message application would have been configured to store messages in your phone memory (the default setting). Try changing the memory in use to your Memory card (Messaging -> Options -> Settings -> Other  -> Memory in use -> Phone Memory), and you should be able to view the messages that had earlier been stored there.
Had you selected the option to backup your mass storage also when running the Content Copier utility, you would've been able to backup the SMS stored in your memory card as well in the NBU file. But the file would be quite large, for obvious reasons.
 I doubt if the other options given in this thread will work for you.
