Quick question about backing up/Ghosting a Hermes

Hi guys!
Well, things are working without a hitch...!
ALTHOUGH... my latest firmware update STOPPED cold at 72%! What a GROSS feeling! Re-flashed it and I'm okay!
Anyways, here's a question for you:
Has anyone out there actually used a backup program that you are 100% happy with?
I'm using WM5, by the way.
Prior to WM5, I was able to use several backup programs VERY successfully.
However, with my Blue Angel and Wizard, I just never found a reliable backup program.
I have two 8525's here, and I am going to flash the second one to the EXACT same firmware.
Therefore, I would LLLLOVE to just run a RELIABLE imaging/ghosting/backup program, and restore everything in one shot.
Has anyone found a reliable program? I'd love to know! I'll use it!
Thanks!
Mike
You'll not get better than SPB Backup (that I use) or Sprite Backup.
Mike
I LOVED Sprite Backup on my older HP pocket pc.
It worked like a charm!
Never had so much luck with it on a WM5 device, though.
Are are you really happy with SPB backup? Does it work flawlessly?
ie. If you were to Hard Reset your device, and restore it with SPB backup, are you then good to go, or "almost..."?
Thanks for the advice!
Mike
I install and remove lots of apps. just to try them out - some are a bit dodgy and require a hard reset afterwards. It takes maybe 10 minutes and I am 100% back again - no additional work to do, no settings to redo it's all restored. I keep maybe ten backups based on roughly 1 backup per week or so - takes around 5 minutes to backup to SD card. Over the past 10 months it's not let me down.

Hi Michael & Mike,
I liked to read your thread with ref. to "ghosting" (personally being a fan of ghost with a strong inclination for Acronis True Image ).
I go to the point.... I bought a P3300 in the NL and had to flash the rom with an English one (after unlocking the device with the CID Unlock tool purchased at Imei-check)... the SPRITE CD which comes in the box is in Dutch and I would rather have an English one (my Dutch sucks big time!)... Any suggestion where I can get/download a current version in my language?
Cheers,
SiperX

How about http://www.spritesoftware.com/
Gee man! How dumb of me not to think about that! Thanks for the excellent tip!

is it just me or did htc downgrade their firmware?

http://www.htcamerica.net/support/mogul/software-downloads.html
i had nothing better to do today so i just checked htc/sprint's mogul page (link above), and the "current" released firmware they have there is 2.09.651.3 dated june last year....
weird, wonder if they lost their website and had to restore an old backup or something
That's a strange link. Check here... That seems to be an old version of the website.
http://www.htc.com/us/FAQ_Detail.aspx?p_id=75&act=sd
I got the same site you did poporo when I checked it last week. I navigated through the HTC.com homepage.
the actual link is america.htc.com/mogulupdate
hmm maybe they should take the old page down then... i had it bookmarked from when i first visited it to upgrade my firmware to current sprint radio.
maybe its time i got DCD's anyways

Sprite Backup Tool

Hi,
Anyone have this tool from HTC, HTC Touch Diamond - Sprite Backup Tool.
Its on the UK site but i have orange diamond so unable to download.
If anyone has it can you upload it so others can use it.
Many many thanks
its over 400 mb, so, you will have to find a way to download it yourself from HTC support website
as far as i know, everything you need is serial number of the phone
if someone could download it
and make a torrent...that would be nice
Here is a version directly from the (german) o2 Homepage:
Don't know if it only contains the german language, but you might want to give it a try
http://www.o2online.de/nw/assets/blobs/software/xdadiamond-sprite-backup-update.exe
Link to the page itself:

Greetings...
I also have HTC diamond from 02, Germany. But I flashed my language to English. Now 02 is giving updates which also includes the battery.
Does anybody have the similar situation like me and tried this 'sprite'. if so kindly let me know.
Thank you!

Not quite true, due to the fact that certain operator locked phones (and their serials) can't download Sprite tool from HTC, but are directed to their operator...
I am in a similar situation, as can be read from here
If the XDA WWE file could be made available I would be extremely grateful! And that is 'only' a few megabytes *cheers*

Didn't work for me since the installation requires the branded ROM version (guessing the O2 version) -> installation aborted for me.

Try this, its the commercial sprite version $29.99 though there is a free trial period...
HTC if you read these posts, Get your act together, your stuff just gets cracked and hijacked anyway. Find a new business model that allows us to use your stuff....
Sprite Support are Helpful
I had some problems when I got my Fuze. I already owned Sprite and got the free version that came with the phone mixed up with it. They were very helpful and sent me the correct CAB just to make sure I was installing the right one.
I have no complaints about them or their product.

QUESTION about restoring Messages from WM5 to WM6

hey everybody..
i have an inquiry...
my device is i-mate K-Jam
i'm using official rom WM5
and using SPB Backup programe for backing up my messages ...
My question is: If i upgrade my Rom to WM6 or WM6.1 and try to restore my backup file ... will it work?
and if i change the SPB to any programe for backing up my messages..and try to restore it in my new Rom will it work??
Thank you all..​
First of all,there was no need for posting in bigger fonts,we all can see and read in normal fonts,it doesn't give you an added attraction.Avoid such posts in future,its waste of forum resources.
Secondly,yes,you can restore back the contacts/personal data after upgrading to wm6,if you use the same program while restoring,with which you back up.Other very good back up application is 'PimBackup' try that also.
Thanks for replying me ..
do you recommend me a Rom supports arabic?
about ur note ... i will avoid that next time
Thank you again bro
hellooooooooooooooooooo

Give people a little more information. What ROM did you have, and what's the new one?
Odds are the old one is still located here, somewhere, for you to put back onto your phone.
this shouldn't have happened. try to do a hard reset or manually re-update (flash) ur x1.
THis is alarming news, Microsoft Office & POwerpoint is the only reason I bought the X1 over the iphone, I hope your wrong, and you used an unnoficial ROM , or its on there but under a different heading or folder.
Everytime I go the UK update service it says my phone is up to date no update avaliable, official UK ROM is not released yet.

alarming? R2AA Generic_UK still has office mobile inside... don't use SEUS, just upgrade manually from the ones released in the Roms forums. They work like a charm and fix bugs of R1AA.
bharat4ever, check your start menu, it should be in a link from the popup, not in programs menu.
also as stated, do a hardreset, not necesary but recomended.
Hey, before everybody cracks up here, just look under the START Menu, right after the Today!
Another way to "test" if its there, just open a doc in the phone.
After that... run crazy!
I had taken an SPB full backup, and i restored the entire thing... now my office is there

I have upday my x1 & did not have any problem for my office files
Just updated my firmware using SEUS today as well. No problems at all. Office is still there.
Office is not deleted by the new firmware.
If you don't have office shortcut in "programs" is normal, the Office shortcut is in the start up menu.
If you want it to appear with the programs you will have to unselect it from the startup menu.
