SMS Backup+ does not backup sent SMS messages #1013

Closed brhunt1958 closed 4 years ago

brhunt1958 commented 4 years ago

Hello,

I have a Galaxy S10+, Android 10 patched 2/1/2020. SB+ version. 1.5.11. Built in Messaging.

SB+ backs up all received SMS messages to GMail perfectly. It will not detect or backup sent SMS messages.

After sending test sms message, Log snippet: Backup requested (manual) Starting backup (MANUAL) Skipped (no items found) BackupState(currentsynceditems=0, itemstosync=0,backuptype=manual,exception=null,state=finished_backup) Backup finished

Is this a known issue? Any way to correct?

Thanks.

Bryan Hunt

I just happened to stumble across this:

https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/833#issuecomment-568098839

> for anyone that may stumble across this thread like I did, the issue is related to "advanced messaging" being enabled on newer phones. go into the settings of the text messaging application, turn off advanced messaging, outgoing messages will backup again.

Thanks to SevnSins for the answer!
