Backing Up SMS

Software, Cloud and Development Software & Tools

Hi,
I have an old Nokia 3120(series 40) i’m giving it away to my cuz… i have stored some personal messages, which i wanna save on my PC. I need a software in which i can save it on the PC and be able to read it too.The nokia PC suite saves it on the PC but its un-readable. I’ve also tried a software called Mobtime Cell phone manager,but its very buggy since it mixes all the messages. Anyother software available?
Regards

Try My phone explorer. It is a freeware.
Ooops! Sorry! I think it is for SE phones only! :flushed_face: Please check this link. Lots of softwares for Nokia phones.

Although i have not checked out whether you can read the sms’es on your computer, but it is the next best suite after Nokia PC Suite.

If you backup using Nokia PC Suite, you can restore the SMS’es to your new phone, provided it it a Nokia Phone.

nothing work better than nokia pc suite.

I have n81 and pc suite vr. 7.0.7.0

I can manually browse through the messages and copy them in windows explorer and they are readable, and export them through nokia communications center to .csv

I dunno if this vr. of pc suite is compatible with ur phone or not but this is want I do. try getting the latest build + communications center app.
