SMS.db question

wgr73 · Mar 25, 2009, 02:12 PM

Ok, so I have Sms.db file I have had since Dec 07 (I like to look back at texts for info I have in them). Is there a way to combine those SMS.db files with the one I have currently on my phone?

No

Why is that? Theres got to be a way to do this. I can view individual messages in an SQL program, so "injecting" a message or a few is possible. Maybe even writing a script to do this.

Dude, doing them 1 by 1 aint gonna work. I'm talking about hundreds of texts. I'll have to look into writing a script i think
