Sometimes you need to reset your android phone or you just want to flash a new rom.In both cases ,you lost all your phone messages ,contacts,call logs etc.Even if you are not going to reset your phone,it is always a good idea to save regular backups of your messages and contacts.There are many ways of doing this on your android phone,but I am going to share with you guys the most simplest and easiest method that I used.

                                                            For this ,you are going to need just a small app called super backup ,which is available for free in playstore.
  • Install the app Super backup by going to Playstore.On your mobile search for the app Super Backup and install it.
  • After completing the installation ,Open the app on your phone and it will show you options for creating backup of your apps,SMSs,contacts,call logs,calenders and bookmarks.
  • Select the appropriate option and then select Backup.This app create backup copy in .xml format and store it in your SD card.
  • Similar way,you can create backup copies of your contacts,bookmarks,call logs and even of your apps.If you are going to format your SD card, save a copy of .xml file to your PC or email.
  • After flashing a new rom,you loose all your previous apps and so you need to install Super Backup again.After installing ,open it.In order to restore a previous copy pf SMS, select Restore and select the .xml file you want to restore.By default,the app store the files on the SD card in a folder name smscontactsbackup.Wait for the completion of restore operation.
