Hi all,

I just tested the new 1.2 release on my Android 2.1 phone, but the media (e.g, images) of MMS did not fully backed up. For my condition, only the second image in my MMS is attached to the email, but the text is fully backed up.
Could you please check on this?

Thanks!

no, the previous version does not backup mms at all.

I can confirm, only 1 MMS is being backed up per thread here...

And only pictures, what about audio support? It's just an attachment, SMS Backup+ shouldn't care about format... I've lost valuable audio...

@xian1243,

feel sorry for your loss... but have you tested jpeg/gif images? I just found that smsbackup+ backs up image in jpg format, but not gif.

haven't tested GIF, but JPEG is just fine. Audio recordings on Android are in .AMR format.

I've just read the code for mms backup, it says,

if (contentType.equals("image/jpeg")) { }
else if (contentType.equals("text/plain")) { }

it seems that mms backup does not support other format (yet?).

what file is that code in? I'll check it out and see if I can't patch it for other formats.

Thanks jberkel, works great backing up other formats, just tested, all fine :)

Just one quirk, it generates a 0 byte empty attachement along the phone's MMS media, called smil.xml... but no big deal... (double check your code) ;)

But yeah, great job mate ;)
