FYI
I was happily running my XDA-mini-S with SPB Backup v1, Pocket Plus v3.1, Diary v1.7.1 when I got a nice upgrade available notice from SPB.
I installed the upgrade and all my SPB application setting were lost and 1/2 of the Pocket Plus options configuration menus were missing
So I restored the back that I had just taken from my storage card all was well again.
I sent a report to SPB who in their usual style send back a quick reply with a new version with a trace so they could PD the problem. Well all was well until I installed the trace version.
The new version did install and all looked the same as before...... I got the trace files ready to send, but while I was 'exploring' via active sync. I thought that there looked like a reduced number of folders on my device.
Oh well I thought, lets do a restore........ AHHHHHAHHHAHHAHAHHHHHHH...... where are the files on the SD card?
Yup - you guessed it, they were all gone. Well I got them back with a restoration program, but the XDA now says they are corrupt and the PC unpacker says they are not SPB Backup files
Has anyone already upgraded and seen similar problems, has it worked for anyone?
Anyone got any thoughts of how I can recover my data? I am waiting for SPB advice now before I make my next move.
SPB are at the moment saying its a platform specific problem, so my advice to you is DO NOT UPRADE TO SPB BACKUP v1.1
I hope I can update this tomorrow with some good news.
eek.. please do - I was just on my way to purchase it >_<
:shock: really strange it works flawlessly on my device
Still waiting for a reply.....
I am still waiting for a reply to my emails on Thursady to SPB. Quite suprised that they have not replied sooner as they are usually quite quick.
I hope to have a reply tomorrow, if not its time to escalate.
Anyone else installed Spb Backup 1.1 on a xda-mini-S?
I've installed it on Qtek 9100 with the latest I-Mate Rom.
No problem at all.

Latest CAB is always available here

The app is no longer in beta.
This program seems really cool, and I was watching shogunmark's video for a second, but wouldn't this absolutely destroy your battery? Activating a 3G connection already triple's my battery drain, and GPS throws on another 200-300 mA.

This is really good app and is very promising. I have been testing for phil for a while on this. Yes it can put quite a drain on the battery, however when im driving i have it plugged into the charger so as long as i stay topped off then it does alright.

i had experienced this before with some of dutty's roms, if the .net isnt cooked into the rom correctly then it throws major errors like that. try re-installing netcf and see if that cures your problems!
*i will note that on some cooked roms re-installing netcf doesnt help because of the way it was cooked in.

Mogul on Sprint
I've had a couple of reported problems about running the app on the Sprint Mogul, if anybody has sucessfully (or otherwise) run the app on a Sprint mogul it would be helpful to know if this is generic problem or not.
Many thanks
Phil
I have a mogul and it seems to work flawlessly. I was able to broadcast two separate feeds with gps.
Does this software work with WiFi, and cache the images & GPS coordinates, for upload at a later date?
I dont have an unliminated data plan, and uploading multiple images would require me to take out a loan
Cheers, Mike.
EDIT:
I've just gave this a try with WiFi, and it seems to work well.
GPS shows me moving from my office to my lounge, very freaky, very accurate
Just the question about the cache left.
I guess since it does "broadcasting" then it probably cant (yet?) cache the video and GPS data?
Cheers, Mike.

Since I posted lot's of people have emailed asking for a cache then upload option along with the ability to be able to disable the speed tracking
I've been working these today along with several other feature requests and hope to have a new build available sometime tomorrow with these updates in.
would there be a way to lock the screen while broadcasting?

Lock the screen how? You can always map a button to the phone lock.
Hey phil, any chance you can do an overlay and display speed somewhere on the screen?

I am getting the same error when i try to do a broadcast. I am running "[Apr 16] Dutty's WM6.1 5.2.19209 Release [User Guide & ChangeLog in Post 2] UPDATED" which has 3.5 installed already. I tried re-installing netcf 3.5 and i get an error about memory and closing applications, to restart phone and try to re-install. I tried that and got the same exact error. So i re-flashed with Dutty's rom, as listed above, but tried installing netcf from the get go and got the same exact error. Anyone have any ideas???
Would it also be possible to have an option to enable the flash?
The camera flash light on my device is only half decent, but having it on would be a great option.

Sorry, the software isn't linked in to other IM systems at the moment. Only other Live Media users can access your broadcasts, because they need the Live Media client to be able to see what you are broadcasting.

If you mean - stop the screen from going to sleep when broadcasting?
Then yes I am looking into a solution for that for handsets that don't stay alive while the camera is active.
greetings phil. very nice program. its working great on my sprint mogul.

Hi Phil,
Yeah, shortly after posting that question I messed around with it a little bit and made a test name. Everything is working great now.
Now, anyway of making the feed fullscreen on computer?
Version Update
There is now an updated version available, with some of your feature requests in.
Record Mode
Allows you record your broadcasts with GPS offline and upload them later.
On the Broadcaster's setting screen there is a new item "Live broadcast" - tap/select and the Broadcast menu option changes to Record.
If you have a storage card, then the files are saved to the livemedia folder, otherwise under \\appData\livemedia.
On the website, login and under My Broadcasts is a new link to upload your broadcasts.
Please note this is only applicable for GPS enabled broadcasts.
Disable sending speed data
On the GPS enable/disable screen there is a new menu item called "Include speed" uncheck so speed data is not recorded.
Check for updates
From the main menu this can now be used to check for and download furture version updates.

Anybody have the same problem today? The Weather tab in Tf3d have stoped updating, It says unable to update want to try again Y/N.
It have worked great before but today suddenly it stopped, is the servers down or what? anybody have it installed can check on their?
Thanks
I couldn't get weather to work at all at first. I had to uncheck the box in connections that says u connect through a proxy. I dunno if u have to do the same thing
Strange, because it have worked very well before and I have done nothing to the settings, but I will try it soon
EDIT:
Now it works, and I didn't do anything not even a soft reset or anything....may have been the server or the operator network
TF3D is a buggy piece of crap on the X1 right now..thats your problem.

I'm gonna have to agree with mlinz. I'd focus on modding that spb mobile shell. I think i'm gonna try and do something there when i get a chance
Shortcuts all have the same 'icon'.
Here's is what I did, I installed G-alarm and I get a following message after installing this app. "your device seems to be at risk to have the windows alarm bug". I told me to restart so I did.
Nothing weird happend after that but I didn't test the application.
I installed sprite backup after that and made a backup.
All went well and backup was made.
Now I was installing Western Europe maps for TomTom. The process was fine and when I unplugged the HTC from my PC for testing TomTom I saw that all my shortcuts changed in the same way. (shortcut icon blue outside, white inside)
And I tried the Icon but it didn't launch any program so ... I went towards the install dir from my appz and all normal .exe files where still working so something f**ked up my shortcuts.
I tried soft reset but when starting up the HTC i get much errors from application G-alarm.
Anyone knows my problem?
I removed all programs who'd give errors. Replaced all shortcuts also.
Seems to be working so far.
Anyone has an id where I can remove registery entries from uninstalled software?
Because some software didn't uninstall correctly.
Hi murda187,
how did u remove G Alaram ? I really hate to see G Alarm on my TP2 device, pls help me to get rid of it.
I have been getting that Error messgae everytime I try to uninstall. Tried all possible ways but it still reflects in installation directory.
I really appreciate your help.
Thanks,

SK Tools can do the job quite well, as far as I have used it.
Hi,
in SBP mobile shell's weather preferences it's possible to see when the data was last updated. However, since I work in an EMP-protected area i have no reception during my working-hours, so the application can't connect to 3G and update this data.
The presented time for the last update is always the last time the application tried to update, not when it actually succeeded.
Is there any way to correct this? Perhaps I should issue this as a bug to the developers?
