My cousin Daniel has once damaged his SIM card which caused a great loss of data, making him suffer a great deal, because he has stored plenty of conversations with his girlfriend and some important business information within the messages. He was terribly worried that the precious conversations would forever be gone, and he would lose his business with some clients. How he wished he had backed the text messages up or had them stored in other places. Is it any way to find these messages back on his Samsung Phones?

Backgrounds
Mainly including the S series of high-end Android-based smart phones and the Note series of Android portable tablets, Samsung Galaxy cell phones with big high-definition screens have received extensive coverage and have been selling like hot cakes throughout the world. With new generations of Samsung Galaxy products released each year, there are an increasing number of special and useful functions developed, such as the mini diary function, the mobile navigation function along with the S pen's screenshot function, the S memo, a variety of sensors, the eye rolling function as well as the smart pause.

Reasons for Transferring SMS Messages from Samsung Galaxy to PC
Being a Samsung Galaxy user, you must have numerous data from various sources stored on your device. Have you ever sync or transferred any of the data like contacts, pictures, videos or music to a computer for backup or to spare more space for your phone? How you tried to back up your Samsung text messages? In some situations, you might have mistakenly pressed the delete button and erased your text messages. Or you might have lost the phone, broken the device by unintentionally dropping it to the ground and thus lost the data.

Have you come across such data loss situations or do you want to sync your text messages elsewhere because they have taken up too much of your phone or card space? The best solution is transferring them to a computer. The text messages can either be stored in the ROM of a phone or a SIM or SD card, depending on the default setting of the device and your preference. As for the former, when you reinstall the system, the data can get erased. As for the latter, when you format the card accidentally or have it corrupted or lost, you may lose files. As a result, a third place, the computer, will be a great choice to safely store your data. By transferring your text messages to the computer, you'll no longer have to worry about accidental deletion or loss, or you can make more space for other data on your phone.
