-So we want to dump all our messages from PalmDatabase.db3
+idk what I was doing wrong but with every modification to PalmDatabase.db3 the database got corrupted and it had to recreate new one...
-here is one simple way to do it
-echo ".mode insert" > cookies; sqlite3 -init cookies /var/luna/data/dbdata/PalmDatabase.db3 'select * from com_palm_pim_Message' >messages.sql;rm cookie
-the question now is how to import it to freshly created database....
-anyway what I was trying to do is to:
-remove my database on pre...
-does palm has a script to create the new database?! (PalmDatabase.db3)???????
-if yes then run the script... and try to import my messages to check if everything is working fine....
-if everything is working fine we should be able to write a simple script to do that automatically for us... and it also could send the whole messages.sql to our email so we will have it for future reference
-and also we will be able to use the file to insert the messages to our new PalmDatabse.db3 file after webos doctor.
-I hate losing my messages
