If you have recently bought a new Android phone and want to transfer text messages from your old phone to the new one, there is an easy way to do that. In this article, we will guide you through the process of transferring text messages from Android to Android.
First, you need to install an application called SMS Backup and Restore on both the old and new phones. You can find this application on the Play Store. Once it is installed on both phones, open it on the old phone and tap “Get Started” to start the backup process. You will be given the option to backup your messages and call logs. Uncheck call logs and tap “Next.”
The next step is to choose where to save your backup file. You can upload it to Google Drive, Dropbox, or your phone storage. Select your preferred location, and then choose a folder to save the backup file. Tap “Next” and then “Backup Now” to begin the backup process.
Once the backup is completed, you need to transfer the backup file from your old phone to the new phone using Bluetooth. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on on both devices, then go to the file manager or my files on your old phone, find the backup file in the documents folder, and share it via Bluetooth. Accept the file transfer on your new phone.
On the new phone, go to the file manager or my files, create a new folder, and name it SMS. Then go to downloads, select the backup file, and move it to the new SMS folder. Now open the SMS Backup and Restore application on the new phone and select “Restore” from the menu. Choose the local folder and navigate to the SMS folder you created. Tap “Restore” to begin restoring your messages.
After the restore process is complete, you can select SMS Backup as your default message application temporarily to see your messages. Finally, set your preferred message application as the default one and you are done.
In conclusion, transferring text messages from Android to Android is an easy process. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can easily transfer your messages to your new phone without losing any data.
