How do I move texts from my old device to my new one?

[fatsmiles]

Just replaced my Droid Razr with a new one. Can I move my texts from the old phone to the new one? If so, how?

I don't have an sd card installed.

Thanks

You can try one of the several SMS backup apps.  There are some that can backup the MMS too, but you often have to pay for those.

SMS Backup and restore is absolutely wonderful. I have been using it for years and have never had any issues with it.

Install it on your current phone. Run the backup. go to your App Drawer and select Files. go to SMS Backup and restore. Copy the 2 files to your SD Card. Put the SD Card in your new phone and set up SMS Backup and restore. Go to restore and it should fine the file with the text messages on it. If it does NOT find it from the SD card then move the 2 files from the SD Card to the SMS Backup and restore folder on Internal storage then restore.

Downloaded SMS Backup and Restore. Since I don't have an sd card, I emailed the file to myself. Installed SMS B&R on my new Razr, opened the attachment and one of the choices was to restore using SMS B&R.
