Re: Where are MMS-messages stored in Android 15 ?

Arno,

I am not sure this is fully true. I make backups from Linux via USB
cable, and I get the WhatsApp store, the photos, many things. There are
just a few directories from the system that are not readable.

Yes - that's a *backup*. But *backup* is not "access files with a file
manager on the device" and not all apps allow to backup their data.

Has the OP mentioned anywhere a restriction to any method for accessing that
data ?  If not, don't complain that someone suggested a viable one you
didn't think of.

Also, your compaint that "not all apps allow" ... well, not what the OP
asked for is only good as a "it might not work" remark, but certainly not as
rejection of what Carlos suggested.  And no, he wasn't suggesting that the
OP should make a backup.  But you already knew that.

IOW, you would throw a perfectly good suggestion (solution?) away because
you think that there "is a chance" that it would not work ?   Thats
downright stupid.

OP:
Follow Carlos suggestion, connect your smartphone to a PC and see what its
filebrowser* allows you to access.  :-)

* or perhaps a specialized browser for your smartphone.
