My phone suddenly feels sluggish as if some program is hogging all the memory and I've made a bit of a mess anyway :?. I also just recently got a 1GB mini SD and want to install apps to it.
I need to backup: my contact list, call history, text messages, notes, tasks and also calendar.
How do I go about doing this?
Also which of the following should go on PPC and which are fine to run off the SD?
-TCMP (which cab am I supposed to use again?)
-Skype (going to try new one)
-Total Commander
-Real player (don't think TCMP can play such files)
-The tweak app posted here
-Adobe acrobat reader PPC (I know there's something else but I don't remember its name)
-minimo (seems pretty interesting haven't had the chance to try it out yet)

Contact list, notes, tasks, calender is backuped with ActiveSync. You don't have to worry if ActiveSync works fine with Outlook.
About the call history and text messages I don't know. I myself haven't find them that important.
I use Sunnysoft Backup Manager for backups:
http://www.sunnysoft.com/en_clanek.php?clanekid=51
Check it out ... it's good if to restore to a snapshot before you screw up your device.
And remember to "redo your phone" with the newest available ROM.
To be honest, I have been running without Activesync. Don't think I have outlook installed...hmm. Is there any way to do it so that it can be loaded directly onto the phone? Otherwise I guess I will have to install it as it comes with office if I remember correctly.
If I can't backup text messages...hmm...there must be away. I would like to keep the call history but it looks like it can't be helped...I'll have to run through and collect some of those numbers :x
Do I really need the newest ROM for my mini S? :? The one on it right now works great. Heck even skype worked acceptably till now...

I suppose it's possible if you know where the data is saved. But I think there won't be a simple way of doing it. I would myself be intresting where the data can be found.

Once you "redo your phone" ... it's your best opertunity to upgrade the ROM. And I prefer you do so to avoid problems in the feature. Your device will be faster and be more stable (ROM 2.17).
2.17...Is that an O2 ROM? I will first need to figure out how to save those text messages. Hmm.... Worth emailing MS?

2.17 is the ROM HTC has distributed to all brands/countries ... depeding on each contact it depends when the ROM is available officially.
I think it's no worth mailing MS. Hope someone here know where the SMS are saved.

You realy do need outlook.
JeyoMobileExtender wil backup your SMS in Outlook.
You can also use SPB-Backup, works fine but is hat not to many option for custom backup and restore. The backups are selfextracting
Are those two freeware?

Shareware ... you may be able to test them during the time you "redo your phone".
Jayo Mobile Companion is what you want!

Is there anything out there for backing up contacts?
What do other people use?
My contact list doesn't represent my outlook one so don't want to use that...
PPCPimBackup - http://www.dotfred.net/default.htm. works like a charm for me. all kinds of backup options.

I Like The Pim Backup
Microsofts Myphone Spent Ages Giving Me An Activation Email So I Didnt Bother With That, May Check It In The Future Though.
And I Dont Fancy Paying To Back Up My Texts When PimBackup Does It Free
Thanks Guys
Hi can anybody give me a tip on a good app for managing sms's from my pc and also backing the up. I like to keep me sms's when i upgrade the rom but pim backup 1.8 messes it up. So anybody got a good one???
maybe you can try sync to myphone.microsoft.com ?
I use Jeyo Mobile Extender 2.5
It works through Outlook & i've been using it since my MDA. Its not free unless you know how to Google.
Try SPB backup and for SMS try powerSMS
I actually googled the question this morning and eventually found this looks cool just installed it and am testing it now. It's called dashwire and does everything from text messages to contacts and photos
http://dashwire.com/
It seems most of these apps have bugs in them. The ones i focused most on was powersms and myphone from microsoft.
Powersms messes up the treaded messeging, so that the cronologic part in the conversation(sms) is not correct. Myphone is buggy and does not sync all sms's.
Any other good ones??
What i want is be able to upgrade my phone ( custome firmvare) and the be able to restore me sms's in the correct order cronoligicaly.
Why do you need to keep all your sms? I've flashed my ROM a few times and only thing I like to back up is my contacts. I get way to many sms to care to back them up.
I will second Jeyo Mobile Extender 2.5. Been using it for sometime now. It does not sync MMS and if there is MMS, the sync just stops. Guess it's a bug but it's the best for me so far.
You can't restore the sms....which i don't mind cos if i need to look for old sms, i just launch MS Outlook on the PC and search for it.
It's not free but.......
you can actually move the SMS back to your device with JME 2.5, but yeah, took me a while to figure out the MMS thing. now i just delete any MMS that i send/receive right after i look at them.
Well i gave mymobile from ms another try and it seemed to work very well the second time around.
I like to have the latest sms's awailible y i dont know hehe, but yea it get quite many after a while....
I use PPCPimBackup - Freeware

That one does not work for me. Treaded messages are messed up after restore
Hey guys. i'm about to dive into toasts rooting method and that raises the question of backup. currently i'm running titanium backup but i'm not sure if it also backs up my contacts, call logs and SMS history.
what do you guys recommend i use as a full backup solution?
thanks!
Spritebackup or titanium... sprite is more user friendly while titanium is more custom imo
Um using titanium..very nice

You can export your contacts from your contacts address book, push menu >> import/export. Otherwise, as long as you saved your contacts to Google instead of Phone..they will come right back once you log into Google.
I backup my SMS messages with an app called sms backup by Christoph Studer. You can backup all your messages to gmail. They won't transfer back to the phone...but that isn't something I would do anyway. The messages are accessible through gmail after using this... plus it is automated once you set it up!

I've used it and it good. It will back up everything sms and all. I use titanium back and sms backup. The good thing abought titanium is you can back up updated apps one at a time after the have updates not the whole thing. MybackupPro you have to backup everything again and that can get old.
Try out wave secure as well....
I am looking for a backup application that will backup to my PC whenever I plug in the data cable. Does anyone know of an application like that?
