backing up text messages on 1.1.4 before upgrade

[med007]

I want to back up my text messages before I upgrade to 2.+

I'm still running 1.1.4 JB / UL

Anyone Syphone stopped working.

Anyone have a work around to make syphone work again?

any other computer software that backs up iphone text messages?

Thank you!

u can SSH into your phone and backup the file its self
its in /var/root/library/sms (i think sms?)

i thought the file location for the sms was different in 1.1.4 and (2.1 or something)

it is. if you backup in itunes and after the restore you can restore your backup and the text messages will stay

how do I "back up" in itunes. sync?

how is the process changed when I use pawnage and may have to hack-tivate?

I've never used pawnage before.

tell me if this is correct

so i copy the file, save it on my computer.
then I upgrade in itunes to the newest firmware ... or do I use pwnage to upgrade?

iphone 2G 1.1.4 JB and UL currently.

ok, I found the backup spot.

Are there any issues using the Itunes backup feature after using pwnage for 2G????
