Is it possible to get a copy of actual text messages from your own phone?

Your going to have to eleborate more on what your wanting.  By copy do you mean you have a message on your phone and you want to forward it to another phone or email address so there is a copy somewhere?  Or do you mean is there a way to copy all your messages to a computer as a backup?  Or do you mean you erased a message and your wondering if there was a copy somewhere so its not lost?

LOL .. OK maybe I wasn't clear :smileyhappy:  It doesn't make sense to have a copy of all your messages on your phone since thats where they should laready be. 

 

Where are the messages now? 

 

Any where do you want the copies to be stored after they are copied?

If you mean can you get a copy of what the messages actually SAY from ATT, there is no way to do that. Not without a court order, I believe.

If you have an iPhone, check out a program called Phoneview. You can then get access to your iPhone data via a mac.  Not sure what the PC equivelant would be.
