Nokia phones have "Nokia PC Suite" Software that allows users to perform complete back up without have any application installed on the phone it self.
Dose HTC Touch HD has similar application to back up the phone without install some application on the phone it self?
163 Views without answer ... that’s mean the answer is no
There is other question any I hope there will be answer to it.
If I change the ROM of my phone to other version and i want to put it back again ... how I can do it?
Can I do it by restore old backup or format the phone or install the old ROM again? ... or something else
If the answer if Install the old ROM again, then how I can get the old ROM to install it later on?
I always use Sprite backup, works OK with the HD. Not free but I think it is available as a download on the HTC site for some of the other models. May work with the HD

Very interested in an easy way to backup my HD aswell Especially without the use of third party programs. Curious to see what HTC has to say about it...
After some research on this forum, the Wiki, Dutch forums...and ofcourse good ol' Google... I did learn about an easy way to backup Contacts and Calendar entries. Turns out this information is stored in a single file in the Root of the phone. The file is called PIM.VOL and just making a copy of this file to either Storage Card or your PC will ensure you being able to replace your original Contacts and Calendar Entries after executing a Hard Reset.
I'm sure most of you allready knew this but for me it was a very nice discovery Now if only I could make such a cool discovery as to backing up SMS/MMS messages aswell

Rolf (35, m, The Netherlands)

Is either Spb Backup or Sprite Backup able to restore eMail account settings and exchange server configuration? For me, this is the most annoying thing after upgrading to a new ROM: I have an MS exchange server access for active syncing and at least two private mail accounts set up on my device. After upgrading, I always had to set up everything all over again.
Cheers,
Eriol
I don't think anyone should need to actually buy SPB Sprite Backup. A legit free copy is on the applications CDROM that came with my NL HD. Check yours to see what is there. After installation you will see it is 'authorised' without having to enter a registration key. You can still register tho'.
You might also find SPB GPRSMonitor too Very handy...
I had no luck with spb backup and SKTools backup. Alothough they were backing up they had a problem with the Restore procedure.
Sprite Bacup 6.5.2 worked great!

By the way I replaced my HD with a new one due to a hardware problem and I had to send you an email and ask for a new code as the previous one didnt work! Will I have to do the same again if I downoad the new version?
Why is this happening? Its not very user friendly!

Updates are free for all registered SKTools 4.x user.
If you will get registration key for SKTools we need the file “ sktoolsid.txt “ which you can find in your windows folder of Pocket PC and the webshop order confirmation with date.

Thanks.
Thanks for the answer!
I just saw the update features. I have the "Last Used" option so I suppose I have the newest version!
If you're just looking to back up pictures, phone contacts etc... then Dashwire is good (and free) as a basic back up programme and you can automatically change it to suit your phone if you get a new one. Works great on the HTC for as far as it goes.

Hi Everyone,
Which Backup program do you use? Is there one you recommend? All this hacking my Cingular 8525 around has had me hard-reset at least twice within the last week. I need a good and reliable backup program since installing all of my software is taking me over 2.5 hours of time.
Thanks for responding.

spb backup has never let me down.well worth trying.
sprite also gets good reviews but I've never used it.

I've tried different backup programs with my TyTN.
I found that the only perfect working program is SPB Backup.
I've already restored my data after hard reset with this program (not once) and all is good.
i use spb also, works great
I vote for spb as well.
Although keep in mind that it only does back up system settings and core software installed in device (not sure what exactly), not the whole file system of your PDA. My problem was, I deleted some files and uninstalled some programs after backing up, and after restore they were not there! (just blank icons).
I would love to mirror my whole device on PC hard drive, yet I am not sure about software for this purpose.

Whatever backup product you use, DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT applying a backup from a different ROM version. You're asking for serious trouble.
Simply put, if you update your ROM, you're also plan on reinstalling everything clean from scratch...

Use Sprite Backup in this case, it'll work unless you try to cross-restore between AKU2.x and AKU3.x. And please DO read my above-linked article; in there, I've also elaborated on this very question.

Strange you had problems with the otehr alternates (Sunnysoft Backup, SKTools 3.0, Sprite 5.1). Are you sure you tried the LATEST versions of them? It's only lately that, for example, Sunnysoft Backup received REAL WM5 support.
Also please read the Backup Bible I've linked in above if you need more info on all these questions.

Both of you are correct. Sprite DOES work great in most cases, except for restoring AKU3 content under AKU2 and vice versa.
does restoreing after a ROM upgrade using Sprite also keep your current registry changes as well...or do i have to do all registry hacks all over again...or even after just a hard reset not a ROM upgrade do i still have to enter the reg. edits all over again....
Sprite works well for me

It will restore your registry changes too. Otehrwise, it wouldn't work at all with a lot of third-party apps that also use the Registry to store their stuff / settings.
Does anyone know if Spb backup will back up outlook notes?
Sprite is the only one worth getting since you can restore after a ROM or device change Just make sure you RTFM before you go changing anything as there are things you need to do before hand
Interesting to hear that Sprite Backup works without problems for all of you. On my TyTN, when it wants to reboot before beginning a backup, the TyTN gets stuck at the Windows Mobile screen. Removing/re-inserting the battery usually allows the boot process to finish - but only until the next reboot. After that, all subsequent reboots show that behaviour, no matter if initiated by Sprite Backup or otherwise. And very strangley, after a day or two this phenomenon disappears slowly. A hard reset fixes the problem immediately - at least until I re-install Sprite Backup or restore an (executable) backup I made earlier.
What's even more strange is that this seems to be reproducable, even across different ROM versions. I saw that first with the O2 Germany ROM my Trion came with, and also after I updated to the south-african WWE ROM.

Hi there,
Using the brilliant SPB Backup on Windows Mobile 5.0 was something that always worked fine and I even needed to restore a backup when something went wrong.
Sure a neat piece of software that I don't want to miss.
On Windows Mobile 6.0 things are a little different. Making a backup works (I didn't try restore, because there's need to yet) but when making the backup is completed, the software comes up with a message that several issues occured.
When click on the info screen to see what issues, SPB Backup says:
Unable to read from file "\Windows\compimeh.dat".
However, the progress bar for backup completion seems to be at 100%.
What type of file is compimeh.dat?
Any ideas of how this problem can be solved? Is my backup truly a backup even without this particular file?
THNX!!
Edit this string:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Spb Software House\Spb Backup\SkipErrFiles
Add new string:
Name 6
Value: %Windows%\compimeh.dat
You add a new string for all the errors putting the run in exact way
Enjoy..
Worked!!
Thanks!!
Wooo....
This is helpful, thank you for your imput!
Leo
SPB vs. Sprite
Do you also have a solution for Sprite Backup?
Same issue, compimeh.dat!
Where do I put the string there, 'Sprite folder'?
And what about if you skip the errors, does the restore work ok?

Leo

Hi all,
Just did a full restore from SPB Backup.
Also had the same compimeh.dat issue.
Everything went just fine. And I must say that I have all my software installed in the storage card.
So, no problem at all with that file.
IMHO, we should not instruct SPB Backup nor any other backup soft to skip the errors, cause at least we know like this that that was a problem in the backup process.
Regards.
Backup
If you restore you will know what that error message meens.
If you trust it that way
Maybe it doesn't restore at all.
You should think about what's compimeh.dat?
Maybe it restore's with errors in apps?
Do you think it is exactly the same as before the backup?
I doubt?

I'm just saying I had the same error... either way I tryed a restore and everything went just fine (without any error).
Now... if you trust it that way, well... it's just up to you, don't you think?
Since the restore I made yesterday, I had no problems at all with any application.
But instead of "You should think about what's compimeh.dat?" (looks like you know what the file is about), you could tell us.
And at least it looks and works like before the backup.
Regards.
Should think about
Sorry for that, it was not my intention to look smart, I'm only trying to say that if compimeh.dat is not included maybe a important part is missing when you restore.
Greetings,

Hi Guys,
I've fixed the issue above on my Exec but one important feature I really do need that seems to have been lost in the upgrade to WM6 is the ability to use Scheduled Backups. It is critical that I backup at a certain time on a particular day. I know I can do it manually but I can't afford to lose the files concerned if something should happen and I forget!
I can set a scheduled backup with no problem but when the time comes around SPB Backup starts up and then shuts down again right before the actual backup begins.
Any ideas from anyone? Would be much appreciated.
If I can't get this to work I many have to go back to my original ROM.
Cheers
Hello!
I have Jasjar 2.01.08 Wm6 ROM and since I upgraded to Wm6 Scheduled backup doesnt work with SPB.
I have scheduled everyday at 6AM to backup but it doesnt do the job, never did!
Please help!

I was having the same problem with btdisk.tmp but I always ignored it. It never affected my Uni in an adverse manner, but now that this was posted I can just make that single yellow icon go away . BTW Spb Backup rocks, with its compression and self-extracting backup. I have scheduled mine to take a back up every morning at 3:10AM. You can see the schedule in my screen shot on another thread regarding Universal Today screens.

Hi,
Is there a way of backing up the entire harddrive on WM5 like we used to in WM2003/2?
Without additional programs, NO.
try spb backup
it backups everything you need on your phone, registry, folders windows to my documents
Sprite Backup
Sunnysoft Backup Manager
SPB Backup
Backup via ActiveSync does not work for WM5 and newer.
Microsoft takes away some fetures then sells them back to the user, calling it an 'improved' OS.

Hello, i have HTC Topaz and as the new official HTC ROM WWE 6.5 is available i want to upgrate my htc rom wm6.1 to WWE 6.5.
But when i will install this new rom all my data, program will delete in my phone.
So re-installing all programs, choose settings ... is very boring to do! That is why i want to know if i will be able to use SPB Backup (2.0.2) to recover programs, settings, and data after the upgrade.
Or if can't use SPB Backup, please give me if it is possible an other solution.
Thanks
Restoring an old configuration on a different ROM from which it was created will hardly work correctly, it is not recommended to do that. The best you can do is use PIM backup to at least restore contacts, appointments, sms, mail..
PIM Backup is just an example, any othe commercial Backup software will do the job but ONLY if you choose to make a partial backup of your personal information, NOT the system configuration.
You can also try MyPhone (http://myphone.microsoft.com/) for all your Contacts, SMS, Task, Emails and Data etc...
Thanks.

Doesn't solve the problem: you cannot restore a WM6.1 configuration on a WM6.5 ROM, data will be lost on the way. There could be apps or tweaks working in WM6.1 that are incompatible with WM6.5, is Myphone going to "repair" them??
Thanks for all, your solutions (PIM backup, my phone) allow me to backup contacts, appointments, sms, mail...
But for programs i should to re-install alls or there is any solutions?
If there is no issues, can i use the .cab of WM6.1 for WM6.5?
In particular, for IGO and Tomtom, are they working with WM6.5?
I suggest to reinstall the programs. For compatibility issues, just try it by yourself! Install every single app and see if it works..or read the forum..I think that there shouldn't be any problem with the navigators you mentioned.

This is basically true, but Spb Backup 2 has a quite particular feature: you can restore your system even on a different device and (!) on the same device after you upgraded your ROM. I tried it and it worked. Extremely useful!

I'm out, I'm too happy with my Topaz config at the moment to make experiments. Besides, SPB backup doesn't work with my rom/device, I use Sprite.
However, if WM 6.5 does not like me, is it possible to come back with WM6.1 (HTC Official ROM FR of 21 july 2009)? and how to do (is a hardspl is needed as I downgrade)? Does the device will still guarantee?
Thank you

The question if offtopic here, but the answer is YES. If you downgrade to an official original 6.1 ROM for your phone you won't need HSPL. For warranty reasons, you should relock your phone by removing HSPL. Read carefully the sticky threads (that's what they made for )
We bought a copy of Sprite backup 6 a couple of years back for my wifes Obrit 2, but she no longer has that.
I was wondering if it will work on the HD2 being WM6.5?
Is there anybody using it ok on the HD2?
If not I'll buy a new copy of Sprite (or another), as they have an offer on at the moment for HTC owners.
Thanks, Mark.

I use Sprite 6.5.2. Works perfectly.
Is that the trial version off Marketplace that you are using and it works ok?
If so I may download/use that, as it's only really to use to backup my contacts when I upgrade the ROM to the newer O2 version (not bothered about anything else other than the contacts).
I'm also using Microsoft My Phone to back up to as well as a backup backup.

Hi,
i'm using 6.5.2 too and it works very well. I think you should use this one too. The license key isvalid for all 6.x versions. Therefore you should be able to use 6.5.2.

Cool - I might have to download it.
Do you just download that version from the Sprite site?

no point at all in using sprite to backup contacts... pimpackup is a free utility that has no comparison when it comes to pim data backup
Anyway I confirm sprite to work correctly, at least on the backup side, I never found myself in the situation of having to restore until now, and all my backup is really done by saving into sashimi's auto folder all the changes I made to my system, every time I make them
Why not Microsoft MyPhone? So much better then everything else for backup!
I bought Sprite backup +/- 2 years ago for my touch Diamond.
I tried to install it on my HD2 but the version i had was not compatible.
After downloading the latest version (6.5.5.) i was happily surprised to find out my registration details were still valid.
I prefer Sprite backup over MyPhone because it is quicker and no internet connection is required.
Same here
Over two year old reg code popped right into the latest downloaded version and works great. Backup to storage card very fast and can restore on the run. I copy the BU's to my computer for archive.
