K810i - SMS backup

Hi,

I have a K810i and would like to take a backup of my text SMSes.

I have searched for this topic in these forums and it seems that there does not seem to be a way to do so.

However, after using PC Suite, I am quite confused. Limiting ourselves to PC Suite for now, here are my doubts:

1.  Using PC Suite, is there any way to create a backup of my text SMS?

2.  Can the backups be stored in text format so that I can just browse through them like text files? I hate to depend on PC Suite just for viewing some text.

3.  Can I restore this backup in case the SMSes on my phone are lost by accident?

4.  What does the PC Suite Archive do? I copied my SMSes from the phone to a new archive and they are visible even when the phone has been disconnected from the PC.

I can see that PC Suite creates a bunch of text files in random order for these archived SMSes.

Thanks for your help !

Never mind.

Used MyPhoneExplorer and exported the SMSes to HTML format.

you cannot copy back to the phone your messages (you can, but it's lots of work - hacking)

you can save your messages also  in SE pc suite by selecting print in the message archive of your phone, and then print to file (.mdi extension)

Thanks Lucifer. I will give the "print" option a try.
