Go SMS back ups

**scoobyxj** · 06-13-2012, 10:28 AM

I'm trying to find if there is a program or anything that will let me read my backed up xml file on my computer. As in being able to read the actual messages, and print them out.

If you chose the XML instead of the binary format, they should be in plain text.

Do you have access to Excel? it might be able to sort it out for you.

I have GO SMS Pro and I don't see anywhere I can set what type of backup files I want. They all seem to be binary, not XML.

I have the latest version, and can't even get into the SMS Backup portion, it just tries to get me to sign up for that Go Cloud nonsense, but in the older versions, the option was right there, you could choose Binary or XML. In later revisions, they changed the wording to Privacy or Readable mode. Readable mode gives you the XML.
