Well my phone has gotten to a point where it's so slow that it's all but impossible to use without tearing my hair out in frustration.

So I'm backing everything up and setting it back to its default settings which will hopefully remedy whatever problems its having.

I can back everything up no problems except for my text messages, now I know this may seem a little neurotic having a copy of all my text messages.

But with a TB Hard Drive its cool to stick them in a folder in case I'm feeling nostelgic.

Only problem is I can't figure out how. I've gone through all the folders in the phones memory and can't find a way to copy them to my HD, can anyone help me?

Steps:
1) Open PC Suite,
2) Open Nokia Content Copier
3) Choose the stuff you want to backup (choices are Messages, Contacts, Notes, Calendar,etc...)
4) It will ask you where to save the backup file; just save it wherever you want and feel is safe.
5)It will take some time to backup all the data.
6)After you're finished, hard reset your phone.
7) Connect to PC Suite again.
8) Open Nokia Content Copier.
9) Instead of saving a backup file, this time select Restore from backup file. Then select the file you saved earlier.
10) After the restoration is complete, the phone will restart.

How do I restore my phone to defaults? When I click "Restore to Factory Settings" it asks for a lock pin and i don't remember it. :( Is this pin provided on the box or in the instructions manual?
