I have a computer with Samsung Kies files, no phone

I trying to find a file reader that will read Samsung - Message.bk and Message.sme files. When you open the files in Notepad, they are not legible.

Any suggestions.

The Message.bk file should be a regular ZIP file which contains a database with the messages.

I just checked.
The .bk files are .zip files but seemingly not really "regular" (in the sense that 7-zip, which usually is very "wide" in capabilities, can list the contents but not extract them).
The good news is that the InfoZip zip/unzip can deal with Message.bk just fine
http//www.info-zip.org/UnZip.html

The contents of Message.bk is a SQlite (version 3) database, filename mmssms.db in the example Message.bk file I managed to find.

Hi All,

I attach my question to this thread because it could be useful for everyone.

I have a memo.bk exported via SideSync. I've tried all the uncompressors like winrar, 7zip, unzip but the format does not seem a compressed format.

Does anyone have any idea on how to decode this format?
