Backing up and restoring text messages back to iPhone
Does anybody know of a reliable way to this? Any good programs come to mind that does this?
Thanks

I can confirm that this works and appears to be the only solution that does. I've been scouring the web for two days for a solution until I came across this thread.
This post (*******) comes close, but the messages do not import cleanly. If you read the comments, you'll see a handful of users having issues with messages being out of order. That is not an issue with the solution in this thread.
It's mind boggling that iTunes (and the whole Apple / iTunes ecosystem), as mature at it is, remains as INFLEXIBLE as it is! Sheesh.

WARNING! DO NOT CLICK THE LINK IN THE ABOVE MESSAGE. IT IS A FORGED ADDRESS.
I've been poking aroung the MobileSyncBrowser site bc I'm in the same situation.
Can you point me to where it says I can get my text messages back on my iphone 3G after a complete restore as a new phone?
Thanks.
I've also been trying to figure out this problem and haven't found the "cure" to this anywhere!
I've tried finding the actual file and doing all that restoring thing (it was a bit complicated) but it didn't seem to work.
The main reason I'm not just restoring from iTunes is because like conneen, "Genius told me that the corrupt data/settings are stored in the backup, so I can't restore from it." Yes, that totally blows.
Conneen, my major problem is that my iMessage doesn't work and also my notifications aren't working properly. Is your also that way?
If anybody can help, that would be so much appreciated!
Thanks!!
