I use to use mybackup but my 30 days ran out, what's another good app, or way to transfer data?

If you have titanium backup, it has a new backup to .xml feature for backing up sms. That way you can back up sms to a .xml file, wipe/install new rom and then restore by using the restore from .xml option in titanium backup. The advantage with this is that it works independantly of whatever app you use for sms and is guaranteed to work.
Im unsure whether this is available only as a pro feature or not but the app is worth every cent in usability and has other exciting features such as extract individual apps/data from cwm backups directly from the app.
I've been thinking about titanium, but xml doesn't save mms, just SMS. So I'm not exactly sure what to use, titanium is definitely good for apps, but I would like an app that did all that I wanted.

If you're restoring to the exact same sms/mms app , you can do the standard backup + restore. The xml method is just for cases where you're switching between apps. A regular backup would backup the .db file for sms/mms.
I use sms backup and just manually save the mms to my sd card when they come in so that way they are always on there. And sms backup can do schedules. It's a nice clean program

You can try appextractor too. It restores texts from old nandroids

Wondering if anyone can help me out... I backed up my text messages with Ti Pro like I have done many times before ( Back up [SMS/MMS/APN]). I usually don't have any trouble restoring my text messages by simply restoring from TI Pro and rebooting. However, This is my first install of Vanilla AOSP VooDoo and when I restore/reboot the messages are cleared, but not restored. Any ideas? Do I need to move the database to a different location? Thanks in advance for the help!
P.S. I'm coming from DJ05 to Vanilla AOSP
I've never trusted TiBu with my SMS or call logs, so I wouldn't know. BUT, you can try reverting back to the ROM you were just on, restoring, then using an app called "SMS Backup & Restore", free on the market. It will backup SMS to an XML file on your SD Card. Then flash back to AOSP and use the same app to restore from file.
Maybe not the answer you were looking for but it's a solid work-around.

No other ideas then? It would be interesting to know what went wrong since it will probably apply to cm7 and minuit and the like

If the messages were backed up from the touchwiz mms app, then that's the only app that they are going to restore to.
Does anyone know a program (Titanium does it but only for same version android) that can back up and restore SMS (in stock messanger) between different version of android (ie from 2.2 --> 2.3.5)? As stated before, Titanium is fine, but only works when restoring to the same version (ie 2.2 --> 2.2)
Try sms backup and restore from the market. If you use a third party app like gosms it might have an option to backup and restore as well.

Worked flawless for me countless times. +1
SMS Backup works well.
I haven't used it in a while though since I switched to GoSMS (actually Go everything.) GoSMS allows you to easily email it to yourself (populates the To: line and everything) on a scheduled backup. This is nice for those "oops" moments. Like one time I deleted an entire thread instead of one message. Plus I like the Go SMS widgets.
SMS Backup is the best!

I was wondering how I can backup all my SMS messages and my os settings and cm7 settings?

Don't know about settings. But for SMS just check the market for one of the apps that backup your SMS/MMS/Call log to gmail.

Just download Titanium backup from the market (free version).
Once you run it hit the context menu button, and tap batch. From here you can do a full backup of all your data and apps.
Finally once the batch backup of everything is done upgrade your ROM and reinstall Titanium Backup, open it and navigate to the backup/restore tab and you'll see all your previouse backups. You can now restore anything you had preiciously including system apps, games and their data, messages, contacts, and pretty much anything on your phone. Just make sure that if you want the data back for the app when you go to restore it you tap restore app + data.
Hope this helps

I use rom toolbox pro to backup my apps and sms. It has more features than others for the same price.

I use Titanium Back Up. Create a "batch group" of apps and data that you would like to restore on your new ROM, and that way it is just a one-click process to restore everything.
best app to backup and restore sms/mms between roms? trying to move from Neo's adrenaline rom to his aokp build.

I find MyBackup works pretty good. It can also restore your MMS pics as well.
Titanium Backup works too. Find "Messages (SMS & MMS)" in the list.
I also like MyBackup. It's very easy on the eyes and does the job. I've restored my sms a couple times flawlessly.
i use Sms backup and restore.. it backs up both you text and pics into a single .xml file.. and it also restores it the way you had it before backing it up. it also checks for and add an duplicate. you cand find the app here on google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/...mNvbS5yaXRlc2hzYWh1LlNNU0JhY2t1cFJlc3RvcmUiXQ..
I use go backup from go launcher team. Interface is easier

thanks for the suggestions. trying mybackup right now. i tried titanium in the past and for whatever reason restoring the messages data between neo's adrenaline and his aokp realy messes up the system so i've decided to stay away from that. and i like sms backup restore too except for that face that it takes forever
