Re: back ups

 

I don't know how to back up text messages. However, if I remember correctly, the messaging app uses Telepathy as its backend. You may find some tutorial for that one or wait for other people to respond. ;)

What I can offer is a script I wrote some time ago for backing up files (including app data). Check it out at https://github.com/nikwen/phablet-scripts.

      and try working with the .ab file.
