[GUIDA]Come Importare SMS da Nokia ad Android

[driver2000]

Salve a tutti, oggi girando per la rete ho scoperto questa fantastica guida per importare gli sms dai nokia ai terminali android!!

La guida è in inglese e la posto pari pari :

Before we start please make sure that your HTC phone is rooted. If you have a HTC Hero I used this guide.

Softwares needed on your PC for this to work:

1. HTC Sync
2. Nokia PC Suite
3. ABC Amber Nokia Converter
4. Notepad++
5. MuF’s Nokia SMS convert utility
6. Android SDK
7. Android SMS Importer (Attachment in the first post)

Steps:

Export Nokia SMSs to XML:

1. Install all above mentioned softwares on your PC.

2. Run Nokia PC Suite. Open the Messages application. Select Inbox from the left pane and then select
(all) messages and right click and select Copy.

3. Create a new folder on your PC called "Inbox" and paste the messages in there. It should create a .vmg file for each message.

4. Open the Inbox folder with ABC Amber Nokia Converter.

5. Select all messages, File>Save as> TXT(ANSI). Name it for example "Inbox.txt".

6. Run MuF’s Nokia SMS convert utility, open the Inbox.txt file. You will get file Inbox.txt_export.txt.

7. Download the attached Import.xml file here (Use Right Click->Save As).

8. Open the import.xml with Notepad++.

9. Open the Inbox.txt_export.txt, select all, copy.

10. Paste the Inbox.txt_export.txt right after the "Inbox" xml tag. It should look like this:

<folder name="Inbox"><message date="22/08/2009 22:47:55" sender="+4...

11. Repeat the proces for "Sent Items". Create another empty folder, copy&paste from Nokia Suite,
load with ABC Amber, export as .txt, load with MuF’s utility.

12. For the xml file generated you will need to replace sender word with recipient and vice versa.
I did it by replace sender with a dummy text and then replacing recipient with sender and then
dummy text with sender.

13. Paste new file into xml after the "Sent Items" tag.

14. [Update: After the updated MuF Converter this isn't necessary. Double check anyways]
Check the date format of messages in the xml file if it is dd-mm-yyyy. It needs to be converted
to mm-dd-yyyy. There is an easy way to do it via Notepad++.
Do a search and replace using the following instructions:

  * Open the replace dialogue (ctrl+H)
    * Find what: date="([0-9]*)/([0-9]*)/([0-9]*) ([0-9]*):([0-9]*):([0-9]*)"
    * Replace with: date="\2/\1/\3 \4:\5:\6"
    * Search Mode: Regular expression
    * "Replace All"

15. Save Import.xml

Copy the SMS database from your rooted HTC Android phone

1. Connect the phone using the USB cable. Do not mount it as a USB device. Click on the message
in notification area which says "HTC Sync" and make sure HTC Sync is running on your PC.

2. Open Command Promt on your pc (Type "cmd" in Run) and change to the android SDK tools directory.

3. Run the following commands.

adb shell
      su
      cd /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
      cat mmssms.db > /sdcard/mmssms.db
      exit
      exit

4. Now mount your SD card for USB transfer and copy the mmssms.db file on your PC.

Import your SMSs into the Android SMS DB.

1. Open Android SMS Importer.

2. Make sure the Inbox and Outbox names read "Inbox" and "Sent Items".

3. Select Import.xml in Import file field and click on Read button.

4. Please note that you may get errors quoting line numbers and column numbers. This is due to
invalid characters in xml like & and <. I replaced all "&" in my files with "and". It did make
all URLs in my texts useless but it preserved the rest of it. For < unfortunately there is no easy
way so you have to replace one by one as the program reports them.

5. Once the program is able to read them you will be able to see a list of your SMSs in the datagrid.

6. Select the Android SMS Db file and click on write. If there are too many messages this will take a while.

7. Once that is done if you want you can check the db file with a SQLite browser. However this is not required.

Copy the new file back to Android Phone.

1. Copy the new database file back to your SD Card.

2. Unmount your android phone for USB transfer.

3. Connect it to HTC Sync like before and launch Command prompt and change to Tools directory for Android SDK

4. Run the following commands.

adb shell
      su
      cd /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
      mv mmssms.db mmssms.db.old
      cat /sdcard/mmssms.db > ./mmssms.db
      chown radio.radio mmssms.db
      chmod 660 mmssms.db
      exit
      exit

se avete problemi col comando

chown radio.radio mmssms.db

basta sostituire radio.radio con 1001.1001 che è il group id e user id di radio!

io l'ho seguita alla lettera ed ora ho i miei vecchi sms sul mio htc hero!
spero vi sia utile

Grazie infinite per la guida.
Sono un nuovissimo utente android (ma con un decennio di esperienza su sitemi unixoidi ;-) ) e sto sbattendo la testa contro lo scoglio degli sms.
Purtroppo il sito da cui hai tratto la guida non è più accessibile, perciò non saprei dove trovareil tool:

Android SMS Importer (Attachment in the first post)

(che come indicato era allegato al primo post )

Mi sapete dare una mano o un'indicazione?

Grazie ancora!!!

Niente, non lo trovo...

Cmq approfitto per chiederti un'altra cosa attinente al topic: facendo questa procedura vengono conservate le date dei messaggi?
Perché quando provo a fare il passo n°3 (Create a new folder on your PC called "Inbox" and paste the messages in there. It should create a .vmg file for each message.) ottengo si i file .vmg degli sms ma tutti con la data odierna.

no no, la data che vedi è quella della creazione del file, ma gli sms hanno la data di arrivo, quindi vai tranquillo
