Stylesheet/instructions??? I saved my messages, but apparently can't display the xml file without a stylesheet, but where is the stylesheet? I can find no instructions to make this app do a damned thing!

Used to love it. Used to love it, but the last few times I tried to back up messages got error messages. Now I can't retrieve most recent backup.

Life Saver! Michele Valentini, your program is a life saver! The only criticism I have, is that novice users (99% of everyone), may have trouble restoring their data to a new phone if they don't know how to use a file manager app to move the XML file to the correct location. A "Location chooser" would be an exceptional addition to this most welcome program. It's too bad nobody's figured out how to handle MMS's yet. EVO 4G LTE

Works This works every time like clockwork, it's very reliable. When I had initial problems, I emailed the 'Maker', but I got no help, no reply. I figured out in the end that I had to remove some 'illegal' characters from the xml file.

Kills Oh thank you, thank you! I backed up using another app, but it didn't restore properly! I tried other ones too, but this one finally did the trick.

Umm... I can't retrieve my messages. Im sure they are probably saved on my little memory card somewhere... Too bad i don't have a way of looking at them. This sucks for me because i was using this app to save text messages from my stalker. I thought it would be great. I could save a copy on the sd card so i can delete the thread from my phone so i don't have to look at them every day. Bad decision. I had no messages to show the judge.

Did not back up texts at all Saved to SD card, and it acted like it was saving it, but when I moved it to the new phone, the file didn't have anything in it. Lost all my texts.
