Thanks in advance to all and greatings from Portugal!

Hello?? Please, can someone help me......not even if someone tells me that it cannot be done.....
Someone???
Do you have your SIM contacts on the HTC or your PC?. If you use Outlook for example you will find that the first activsync session you did the SIM contacts were transerred to your PC contacts (at least that is what happened with me). If they are there then a new activsync session should get them back on the HTC and you can then use SIM Manager to transfer them back onto the SIM.
If you have no copies anywhere then you need some data recovery software. I do not know if there is any recovery software that works on internal memory rather than hard discs - you could try googling to see.

Hello,
My XDA has crashed during a Radio Stack Upgrade (rsu_eng.exe taken on the O2 Ireland Web Site). Pocket PC Phone Edition doesn't work well (I can't connect it) and Bootloader is accessible but says GSM Error.
So I would like to create a SD card with autoexecuting application (like chosl has done) to restart my installation when I will insert the SD card. But I don't have enough knowledge to do that.
If somebody could tell me what I could do or send me by mail his autostart.exe to do my SD card boot-able (!)...
I really need your help.

I thougt that jou must place your nb.nbf file on de sd card.
But you can also try the love rom to reset youre rom image
ok wtf i must be stupid or something because i swear i seen how to do this b4 but now i cant find it.. how do i copy all my contacts to my sim card? i selected all contacts but there is no option to send them to my sim card what gives?!
Not too sure about the Wizard but I know there is no standard way of doing this on the JAM.
The only option available is SIM to Phone.
one would think this is possible by installing a cab file.. just like it was possible to select all contacts by installing a ppccontactsmgr cab..
I have installed yesterday and today android several times
every time it says there are no contacts on simscard,
so i installed wp7 yesterday and the contacts where back,
installed this morning gingerbread android and AGAIN they where gone,...
so how do i get them back on android? when i try to import them it says there are no contacts :s
used MAGDLR 1.13
Gingerbread NAND
best regards
do you have any kind of sim manager? DL contact2sim (it's free from the market) and see if it picks up the contacts on your sim. Then, simply copy them onto the phone.

thanks, did it another way by putting the simcard and sd in another mobile then transfered the contacts from sim to sd then put them back in my own mobile and transfered the contacts on sd to sim
but thnx for the reply
Just had a though and wondered if anyone had tried it.
We know when we take a sim card out and boot up WP7 it boots as if it a virgin install.
So my question is if we were to reflash the phone with a second sim card can we then insert the original sim card after the install completes to save us losing all the data and settings?
Has anyone tried this?
EDIT: I meant SD Card not sim card
No replies
If anyone is going to install the new rom would it be possible that you could insert a second sim when reflashing and after the flash it complete reinsert your old original sim and see if it works and keeps your old settings?
If not it will only need a reset to reformat the original sim so nothing to lose in trying this, I would try myself but I have too much on my sim to lose at the moment and cannot try until weekend as I need my phone through the week.
Thanks

whoops, didnt mean to hit thanks! oh well, one for your collection!
from my point of view it wont work, the SIM being there or not wont make the blindest bit of difference when you flash it, the installer will wack anything on the SD card, which is the only place that could keep the data intact
if your looking for backup wait a while, Windows phone device manager will soon have a backup program built in to it, your phone will need to be unlocked as its not MS supported but other than that it should backup you data and your app data allowing you to flash to your hearts content, and keep your data.
i dont know if it will install apps again though, i suspect not, but its progress!
You got a thanks back
What I meant was, if you power down your WP7 and remover the sim the phone boots up perfectly but none of your contacts are there or emails and preferences.
If you the power down and re insert the sim your phone boots up as normal with all your settings.
So if we reflash using a different sim card the after the flash is complete, power down the phone remove the sim card and replace it with the one you were using before the reflash, would it not use the setting stored on the older sim card?
I have the manager registered so will use that when its out but this was just an idea and wondered if anyone has tried it.
(power down your phone and remove the sim and power up and you will see what my logic is )
DOH I meant SD card not sim (brain dead )

ahh, yes now that makes a lot more sense!
ill check, i plan on reflashing on sunday to update to NoDo, i need to backup all my app data first just incase so it will need to wait until then, you would probably need to make sure the old SD card was the same size as the new one, just incase it checks that out.
It won't work... I bought some SD cards last week and swapped them out and if the info on the phone doesn't match the info on the card, it won't keep the info each time you restart...
For instance, if you insert new sd, get the green theme like a new phone, change to orange theme, turn phone off and on, it goes back to green as its still looking for original card...
Thanks for letting us know, its a pity as it would make reflashing so much easier
Technically it won't work anyway as the sdcard would be part of the raid set that wp7 makes. You cannot just take data from one raid set and add it to another.
The sdcard in wp7 is not just used as additional storage it is treated as one big lump.

now that isnt quite true,i say quite because doing this doesnt means its just takeing it from the SD card but the idea is the same, ive done a manual backup of the data from the SD card, visible through Windows phone device manager, ie, ive gone through the application folder and copied the IsolatedStore of the programs i wanted to keep the data for.
it does mean that i still need to install the app, but i can just copy the IsolatedStore back to the correct folder which will give back all the data and original settings before the reflash.
Hey dear all,
I was one of the first one to install Yuki's Mango ROM...today I tried to unlock my SD card with a Nokia phone to no avail. Its asking for a password.
Whats the easiest way to unlock my SD card now?
So
you will use your sd card in another phone ?
I prefer miniTool partition wizard, it's easy, free program for windows.
Just plugin your sd card into computer, open this program, delete all partition, add new "Fat32", label primary, and all space for FAT32, then hit enter and plug out
thanks but the card is locked....how does my computer recognize it?
I have an old Nokia phone but it won't format the card because it says I need a password...a password that I do not have.
I need to completely delete everything on it or else my SD card is useless. I can't use it anywhere.
Your pc will just see, that sd card is blocked or sth.
But dont worry, just open the program.
Every time i change wp7 to android i use this.
Sry for my poor english

Just ignore password request and you'll get the option to format the card, just as simple as this mate
P.S. Another opportunity is to install DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab through the WP7-Update-Cab-Sender within Yuki's ROM and then choose to unlock the card
Thanks guys. For whatever reason my PC doesn't find it...and my Nokia won't let me format it. Unfortunately I don't have the Yuki rom anymore. Now it's on stock rom...maybe I'm doing something wrong ? :-S
