Transfer/Back-up SMS via LG PC Suite

Maybe you all found out about this before I did or maybe you didn't, but...

Some people have been having trouble getting SMS messages from their mobile to their PC using PC Suite because - It only displays 'E-Mails'...

I was having a tinker this morning after wiping my phone back to factory settings and wondered about how to sort this as; some people could pick up SMS, some people couldn't...

I remembered someone a while back who said that you need to connect as U990 instead of KU990 - funny thing is, the FIRST and ONLY time I got that option was when I first even linked the two (PC+Mobile), so something had changed.

Basically, after much poking around my system, I found this...

Go to the folder where PC Suite is located on your PC
E.g. 'C:\Program Files\LG PC Suite 2\'

Open the folder - 'common'
Open the file 'Conninfo.ini' (with Notepad)

You'll see this:-

[CONNINFO]
CONN_PHONE=KU990
CONN_PORT=COM4
CONN_DEVICE=USB
CONN_TRANS=11
CONN_IMEI=***************
[SECUINFO]
CONN_START=0

Simply delete the 'K' that's highlighted in red above
Close Notepad (it'll ask you if you like to save - YES!)

Open LG PC Suite > Messages > TADA!
