MyPhone restoring vs Pimbackup?

**twe90kid** · #1 (**permalink**) 11-19-2009, 09:49 PM

which one is better?

I know pimbackup has some problems because it causes problems when restoring text message. Also it might send text messages to people while restoring. It spams people during restoring.

Does MyPHONE cause that problem? How safe is it since your storing all your information on microsoft's storage? Which one do you prefer? Thanks

I used pim in the past, but switched to myphone when it kicked off. Works perfect.

I'm wondering why you backup and restore txt messages? Why re-read them? Just wondering, not knocking you.

well i backup text because sometimes it's business related, which can be important

I've always wondered that myself.

I read a post a few weeks ago where a poster wanted to restore 3000 text messages.........
