How to Transfer Text Messages to New Android
Hi all. I need help to transfer my text messages from my old hats wildfire to my new Samsung Galaxy II or to my PC. I've saved my contacts to SIM but can't see a tab to do this with texts. I tried to log onto the android market but I get the following message "can't establish a reliable data connection to server" even when I've connected to WiFi at home. I really need to keep these messages so any advice is greatly appreciated. Cheers. -- John.
