Hello,

I have recently switched from an iPhone to a Google Nexus S.
I've transferred my messages from iPhone to GNS using a .xml file and SMS Backup & Restore (Ritesh Sahu).
All messages are in my Messaging app.
Now I've installed SMS Backup + to backup my messages to gmail.
Apparently SMS Backup + only backs up the messages received on my Android phone and not the messages I've imported from the iPhone.

Does anybody have an idea why it doesn't backup the "iPhone-messages"?

when you first start SMS Backup+,
it will ask you what's to do with SMS of stored in your device.
"Backup" or "Skip", just tap backup and it works fine.
