Does anyone have a working present day solution to importing my SMS from an android export in etiher .xml or .csv format.The Morse app in storeman/github doesn't seem to do anything. And any other methods i've found are years and years old (including javaes python script: which I can't get to run..) Any help is greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance sailors!

I managed to import SMS, during all my SFOS history, with a mix of bash scripts and this tool: https://cdnm.at/~christian/Harmattan-SMS-Boat/

I found most of the informations in https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=91909 and with a bit of try and catch, but mostly was (is?) a matter of producing a correct CSV, in the format:

The resulting CSV is written to a file encoded as utf-8 in the format:

PhoneNumber;IN/OUT;StartTime;EndTime;SMSText

Calls have a similar format:

PhoneNumber;IN/OUT;MISSED/OK;StartTime;EndTime

Once you can have this simple format, the tool Harnattan-SMS-Boat could be used on device itself to import messages and call history. Sorry I don't have a real script but only a series of things I wrote during years, just to remember how to do it.
