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. -------------------------------------------- On Sun, 1/3/16, DAVENPORT, MARC <mda...@co...> wrote: Subject: Re: [BitPim-user] BitPim fails to start AND trying to get text messages off my phone To: bit...@li... Date: Sunday, January 3, 2016, 12:53 AM 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 with the phone and used that but nothing changed. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: DAVENPORT, MARC <mda...@co...> Date: Fri, Jan 1, 2016 at 8:31 PM Subject: BitPim fails to start To: bit...@li... Hello, I am trying to use BitPim on Windows 10 with an LG VN150 phone and a standard USB cable. I have installed the USB and Modem drivers for my phone. My issues are as such :BitPim fails to start as well as BitFling. Both give me this error message, "See the logfile 'C:\Program Files (x86)\BitPim\bitpimw.exe.log' for details." However, this file does not exist. There are no *.log files in that folder or in any of its subfolders. I will try to install the program on Windows Vista and see if the problem persists. Any advice is welcome.
