how can I retrieve text messages after 30 days
how can i retrieve older
text messages if I told the phone to only save for 30 days
I don't suspect you can. Messages are not saved on the server for very long, they only exist on the local device. You could restore your device to a backup from a time when the messages were there, but remember that anything that you have done since that date/time would be lost. You may wish to reconsider the hold time if you are going to do this again.
