BitPim has not been updated or maintained for almost ten years now and there have been no responses from the developer for a very long time. I suspect you need another solution. 

Not sure why this list still exists.

[BitPim-user] Help

[Elizabeth R. <ear...@gm...>]

To Who it may concern,
I am in need of assistance of pulling out my SMS on my Samsung Rugby II. I
noticed that the serial number I got from the phone company did not match
any of the numbers that were available on your list- SGH-A847. I do need
help with this as I am trying to pull the SMS off for my attorney for a
lawsuit that I am pursuing. I would greatly appreciate some help in this
matter as bitpim is not recognizing any of the com ports (USB ports that I
have and I have tried all of them). I have downloaded the drivers for this
device. I have contacted Samsung and AT&T and the best they could advise me
was to "take screenshots"- it was a little insulting as I was looking for
something a bit more professional- that would show up in a list with the
numbers that I was texting with and the content of the texts that would be
satisfactory for the court system. I have been through the help section
that was provided. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly
appreciated.

Re: [BitPim-user] bitpim will not open

[<fp...@ro...>]

Thanks for the comments:

Have deleted bitpim files from my Windows 10 laptop and downloaded the bitpim program a few times.  Same result.  Seems to be a Windows 10 issue. 

I do have a older laptop running XP but have not fired it up for years. Will give it a try.

Re: [BitPim-user] bitpim will not open

[It's Us <onl...@ro...>]

Frank,

   Unfortunately BitPim is an older program and doesn't seem to be 
supported anymore which is a shame - in my mind at least.  This being 
the case it looks like you may be experiencing compatibility issues 
with the newer windows.  DLLs and such have had changes -some in major ways.
   Two possibilities.............
   1>Compatibility with Win 10 as above
   2> Bad uncompression from the zip you probably downloaded or a bad 
zip (download) itself.  It can happen
     Try to delete all the bitpim files and unzip again and try 
it.  If that fails try downloading the source file again - maybe even 
from a different source.

If all that fails you probably are stuck with a compatibility issue 
and will have to see if you can round up an old Win XP box somewhere 
and install Bitpim there.  I know it works fine on XP  but haven't 
tried higher Ver.

Good luck.

[BitPim-user] Still active ?

[It's Us <onl...@ro...>]

Hi Anyone,

   I was a dedicated Bitpim user for years and just went back 
recently to try to use again.  I noticed that interest/usage seems to 
have fallen off after about 2010.  Is there still anyone interested 
and involved with this project ?  It's an important tool which still 
has valid uses and it's a shame to see it go away ?
Anyone please let me know...

Re: [BitPim-user] Is anyone still answering questions/problems?

[Dave H. <d1h...@ao...>]

Maybe you can get the USB link software from Samsung or from the service 
provider.
Or try other Samsung models. I had an LGVX150 but had to use the VX550 
setting.
If the phone has Bluetooth you could send pictures and contact info 
(vcards) to a laptop or other device.
Another tack might be to burn a "Live Linux" CD or DVD and see if it can 
see into the phones file system.
Good Luck
Dave

Re: [BitPim-user] Is anyone still answering questions/problems?

[Keith A. <dka...@ya...>]

Augustine,
Thanks so much for your reply.  I can indeed see the file system via Bitpim, but it looks like the image files must be combined together since the number pictures on the phone is much larger than the number of files I see on the phone.  I guess the next step would be to try and figure out how to decrypt these files.  BTW, I using this on Windows and not Linux..
Bitpim looks like a nice tool and it would have been great if I could have just pulled off the images like I was supposed to be able to do.
Best regards.-Keith

I tried bitpim years ago to try to get data (pictures/contact list
etc...) out of a Motorola E815.  It didn't work even after entering
the phone info by hand.  Bitpim never recognized the phone.  Turns out
that the E815 is one of the most crippled phones (by Verizon) ever sold.
What motorola designed was supposed to be top of the line for the time,
but in order for Verizon to extract more money from the users, features
were disabled or crippled right and left.

Unfortunately, in my case I couldn't even see the phone as a file
system.  I would suggest you copy files from the phone FS directly
(assuming this is possible and not disabled somehow).

I presume you use Linux (or is bitpim available for windows?)  You

Re: [BitPim-user] BitPim fails to start AND trying to get text messages off my phone

[D.J. <pea...@ya...>]

Marc,
If you have the phone recognized and can get the file system view, you might try the right click option on the root directory for a menu then choose back up entire tree. This might give you a complete dump of the phone onto your pc where you can work with the files to retrieve data.

Another option would be to activate the phone on an inexpensive one month plan then forward the texts to an email account or another live phone.

Good luck.

 I have
 an update on my progress. I managed to get BitPim 1.0.7 to
 work on Windows Vista. Since the LGVN150 is not a supported
 phone type I used autodetect and it comes up as "Other
 CDMA phone" now.
 
 I am trying to get my old text messages off of the
 phone, but I haven't had any luck. "Get Phone
 Data" shows only a group of greyed out checkboxes. I
 can view the filesystem and I believe I have found the files
 that correspond to my texts, with a .*DB.vol.sys,
 *DB.vol.log and *DB.vol files. However the problem that I
 have now is that I can't download these files off the
 phone. BitPim says that the provider has blocked access to
 these files.
 
 So I'm stuck. What do I do now? I contacted
 Verizon and they weren't much help. Monday I will try
 talking to LG and see what they say.
 
 Ideas? Any and all help would be appreciated. 
 
 FYI I found the original USB cable from Verizon that came

[BitPim-user] Fwd: Samsung Brew Call logs

[Michael A. <mj...@gm...>]

Hello all.  I am looking at Bitpim interpretation of Call Logs from an
older model Samsung CDMA phone (SCH-U410).  I can see the 4 byte value
(offset 0x34 in each file) within each clog file that is the BitPim
interpreted date/time.  However, the interpreted dates/times from these
4-byte values (interpreted as Epoch Jan 6, 1980) do not mesh with what I am
told about the phone.  Interestingly, the clog files have metadata in the
form of modification dates/times that *do* match with what I understand to
be consistent with the phone.  I have some questions regarding these
records.  First, am I properly interpreting the 4-byte value as the correct
date/time for the calls? Next, how does the clog data change to reflect a
newer date/time than the file modification date/time?  Could these file
modification dates/times be related to the actual date/time of the calls?
If so, what would the 4-byte value represent?  Thanks for any assistance
with this.

[BitPim-user] LG Cosmos VN250 - How to retrieve Text messages from Cache?

[As Y. W. <asy...@gm...>]

I have read as much of the 'How To and Do this first' BitPim information as
I can before my head explodes... I've used BitPim for several years with an
LG6100; LG Chocolate; and with the LG Cosmos a few years back with great
success - till now. The Chocolate is 'fading its front touch pads' and I
need this backup phone... so here's what happened.

I have Cosmos setting at LG 8560 which works on Version 1.0.6. but not on
Version 1.0.7.
1.0.6. Recognized Phone, downloaded all texts inbox - then part of outbox
and stalled. Error message.
Error message is gone due to accidental 'shut off of BitPim' at which point
all 183 inbox text messages disappeared, also all 45 outbox messages
disappeared.

I located the file Cache with 228 files in it with the same date and time
but not as inbox.dat. They are listed as F00000-F00228 File showing 5KB to
7KB for each message, with an index.idx file at the end of the cache.

What I want to know is how to retrieve these as text messages into the
BitPim program along with the newer ones that BitPim has saved since
4/7/2015?

I have searched everywhere for a solution, and I'm no computer genius, (61
next month and my Tech Guru son doesn't live here to help out) so I don't
know how to even start.

Luckily I found the 'file with the cache'... I am running Windows 7 (so the
tag on the laptop says) and BitPim has always run just great. Even on
Cosmos, till now, and it won't download phonebook, calendar, memos, photos,
sounds, ringtones either. Though it used to.

Ask away, or email me that you can't be bothered...

Re: [BitPim-user] possible to view deleted notes?

[Josh H. <hig...@gm...>]

I have downloaded BitPim for my mac and am trying to pull pictures and
files from an old LG Dare phone from 2008.  I cant find the option for
filesystem on my screen??  What should I do? I appreciate any help you guys
can provide.




*Step 3:* Click *Filesystem* in the bottom left of Bitpim, then open up the
*/* folder tree in the next column.

*Step 4:* Locate and expand the folder *mmc1*, then click *my_pix*.  You
should see a list of all your pictures in this directory, which will have
numeric file names and end with .jpg.  Right click the*mmc1* folder and
select
*Backup entire tree…*

This process can take a very long time depending on how many pictures you
have on your phone.  You can monitor its progress by looking at the status
bar. Be sure not to use the phone or the program while it says BUSY in the
bottom left.

*Step 5:* When BitPim is finished backing up the files, a dialog box will
pop up where you can specify the location you would like to save the
files.  The files will be stored in a compressed .zip folder.

Mmm nope, nothing is backed up, I've been trying to figure out a way to do
data recovery (like forensic-style) but I doubt it's actually possible.

Re: [BitPim-user] possible to view deleted notes?

[JARROD N. <jar...@gm...>]

If the notes that you are talking about on BitPim server and if you backed
your notes up to Bitpim I don't see why not. You should be able to pull all
your notes if BitPim is offering that I would call support and see if they
can help

[BitPim-user] possible to view deleted notes?

[Dirk D. <dir...@gm...>]

So, my phone deleted everything in the notepad application. I think that
it's probably got a reserved block of memory because there's a specific
number of characters per note and a maximum number of notes. But I also
think it's probably gone from the file system. Would BitPim be able to
recover the notes? I just want to know before I go to the effort of doing
the development necessary to talk to my phone, which is currently
unsupported.

[BitPim-user] Katana Data Transfer

To anyone who can help. I found this answer in the archive:

Stephen

 

This is referring to Katana SCP-6600, I am using Windows Vista Home edition,
and using a Bluetooth Connection. I get the same log information that user
Lew Shannon posted in 2006. Is the response that Stephen provided still the
answer when using Bitpim 1.0.7? 

 

If so, and you can recommend a cable please do. 

 

If not, here is a copy of the log from my attempt to grab photos from the
phone (I clicked on Get Phone Data and checked Source: Wallpaper):
