How to recover deleted iMessages?

My iphone automatically syncs to iTunes & iCloud and I remember when I got my new phone, I got all my old messages back but I forget how.

I don't think so once something is deleted you can't go back

Not unless you backed up to itunes first.

If you have back up your text messages, you can restore from the backup.

To restore information from a backup, use one of the following methods after connecting your phone to the computer with which you normally sync:
1. Right-click (or Control-click) the device and choose Restore from Backup
2. If you have a new phone, you can connect to iTunes and it will prompt to restore from your backup

If you have no backup, iPhone sms recovery software is your last shot! Check this tutorial out:

  • Why is my Iphone not sending as Imessages and receiving iMessages from one person? I'm texting my wife and we both have iPhone's and she is getting the messages as an iMessage but the ones I'm sending her on my end show up at green. Sometime it will go as blue, get the little red exclamation point then send as regular SMS. I'm texting someone else too and she has an iPhone, and she is getting mine as regular iMessages and mine are sending as regular iMessages. Why aren't they sending to me wife as iMessages?

  • Is it possible to check what iMessages have been sent and received even after being deleted? I cleaned out all the iMessages in my iPhone and I don't back up my messages to anything (such as iCloud). I know it is possible to check text messages through your carrier's server. But is there a simpler way to check your deleted iMessages? I know this is was worded in a confusing way.
