If its your still with the official ROM, I assume you didn't even create an ext partition yet.
Therefore, at this point you need the "Nand backup" option.
Assuming, you want to install a custom ROM with app2sd support (most custom ROMs), you will need to:
- backup the entire contents of your SD card to the computer (all data on card is lost in the next step!)
- repartition it through recovery, say to: 0 swap (unused), 512M ext2 (not ext3/4), and the rest for fat32.
- restore all files you backed up.
After you have made an ext partition and install a custom ROM, use "Nand + ext backup" to back it up.
Finally, restoring is always using the "Nand restore" option, regardless of which type of backup you made.

thanks a lot...

[Q] Full rom backup?

Hello, im looking if its possible to make a backup of full Rom. Im wanna try install nand android but im afraid to lose all data/settings and everything from my Wm rom.
Sorry for new thread.Peace.

Spb backup, sprite backup, sktools, resco backup.

Do a full backup using SPB Backup, this will save all your settings/SMS/etc onto your SD card. Download a copy of the ROM on your phone.
If you want to return to WinMo, then flash the ROM and run the SPB Backup retore file on the SD Card - this will put all your stuff back into WinMo.

Thanks guys.
