Re: Restore / View text messages on pc
Some ROMs that works, others it doesn't. Sometimes I have restore my messages several times before they will re-thread.

I just wish it didn't take 2 hours to re-thread, after it already took 4-5 hours to restore them in the first place.

I think threaded messaging on these phones is only useful for the last 10 messages or so. Unlike PocketCM that shows them all on the screen. If WM won't re-thread them all, no sweat, I can always switch to classic view and find what I need. At least I know I HAVE the message.

I still have about another 13,000 messages to load in with PIMBackup, but sometimes my phone just freezes when it tries to restore the messages... I just wish there was an update to make this faster.

I'm not kidding when I say MyPhone restored them in 5 minutes or so... I just installed the application, canceled the initial sync, disabled everything but text, and re-synced. 5 minutes tops for 4,000 messages... That seriously would have taken nearly 4-5 hours with PIMBackup.
