Text messages on a Dead Phone

[ruby]

My phone is no longer functional and i have to get a new phone – but I have text messages with pics attached that I don’t want to lose. When I get my new phone, will I be able to see my text messages from the past and ones that I never read?

Hi @ruby,

Here is solution for a fellow Member given by @rolandh that might help:

Phone dead. New Phone. SIm card functional. Can't view texts

Hi @davidm.pjbenj, I’m sorry to say that generally text messages are stored only on one’s phone unless one proactively backed them up. Without access to the old phone, there’s no way to move them. There is one possibility and that’s Republic Anywhere. Installing Anywhere on your new phone, then syncing to Republic’s servers will get you the last 30 days of text message content. I’m afraid short of expensive forensic recovery on your old phone, that’s as good as it gets.

Added: You can also install Anywhere on your computer. You can get a copy of it here:
