hey guys. i have sprite back up and i have it set to back up everything.
I want to flash a custom rom so I was wondering how i can back up my contacts and SMS so that after flashing my custom rom, i can put my contacts and my SMS back on my phone. Im thinking i can't just double click my sprite backup's .exe restore file and have it restore all my information after i install a custom ROM right ?
thanks guys
you need PIM Backup...check the Wiki software page - should be on that or search the Blackstone Apps sub forum
thanks man i got it

Hi all,
First, sorry for english mistakes but i'm french.
I had WM6 when i bought my polaris and i decided to go on a WM6.1, i backuped my contacts and all with SpriteBackup when i was under WM6.
I applied HardSPL and then got the rom based on WM6.1, all is ok. My polaris boot perfectly, the rom is stable. But my probleme is that i reinstal then SpriteBackup to recover the backup i made before to readd my contacts. The installation is ok, but when i click on "Restaurer" it appears a popup on which is displayed "Authorization exigee oiyr executer sprite backup"
Somebody know how can i recover my contacts ???
Can i get an other WM6 based rom just to recover my contact an syncronize with outlook before getting back to my new WM6.1 rom ?

if you go to the thread above you will find most of the OEM roms, (which are wm6)
good luck
Use PIMBackup 2.8 to only backup contacts, tasks, sms and thelike.
Use SPB, Sprite or any other backup tool to create an "image" of your device, in case it fails and you want to restore the previous state.
Hi,
Basically is there a way to backup the SMS library off the HTC Touch HD.
Im running Windows 6.1 at the minute, but want to upgrade to 6.5 and give it a test however i dont want to loose the SMS off my phone.
Is there a file or something somewhere i can make a copy of, and then HSPL and flash to Windows 6.5, copy the file back.... Reboot the phone and all the messages be back on there?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks.

You can also use sashimi, spb backup, sprite backup & resco backup and just backup PIM data (emails, sms etc)
I had a WM6 mobile. I sold it since i find difficult with touch screen input in busy schedule!.
I had backuped my contacts with PIM backup.
Now i have the backup file but no WM6 mobile.
So, is there anyway I can see the backuped contacts in PC?
So that I can enter them manually to my new phone?

I, i already searched a lot for my problem, and I do not know where exactly post my problem, so I'll post it here in hope for a litle help
Here it goes: I have update my wwe Leo to 1.66 rom a few days ago, and because I have tons of paches installed that I downloaded here ( by the way, thanks alot for your explendid work ) , I used SPB Backup to restore all the stuff.
When I finished to flash the phone, everything was fine, but after re-load the backup, the sms list has become a mess. When I open the sms list, the characters are HUGE, and I can't even read the text. I have put the character size to the minimum, and it does almost anything.... :'(
Is there a problem with the backup, or should I hard-reset the phone and install all the programs manually?
Thanks...

Yes, that´s the way.
What I would do is to hard reset your phone then restore th SPB Backup file as follows:
- Go to Customized Restore and click on it
- Then select PIM, Emails and My Documents
- DO NOT tick the System Data option
Restore as normal, soft reset you phone and see. Any problems, come back.

Thanks a lot, I'll do it like that
It will be a mess to re-install all the programs, but it will be worth
