How do I backup (and restore) my MMS? - General Topics

Hi everybody.
I've 2 TyTNs.
The first has xda-live 0.2
The second has the standard italian rom.
After flashing the first I've lost all my messages (I was trying to restore a backup made with SPB Backup) but it didn't work at all.
Before flashing the second I'd like to backup (on WM5) and restore (on WM6) all data.
For Contacts I use NS Contact Backup (I prefer it to outlook)
For SMS I use SMS Backup but it works for SMS only.
For Outlook Emails I use Activesync.
What can I use to backup MMS on WM5 and restore them on WM6?
(I already tried SMS organizer but it hangs. )
Thanks anyone.

tnx rudegar but I already tried that.
My problem is that I'm trying to backup on WM5 and restore on WM6.
Standard backup programs don't work (even "Sprite Backup" fails restoring MMS both in normal and in "device upgrade" mode)
(the restore goes ok but the "MMS" account disappears)
Maybe there's something to change in the registry?

Any hints on how to fix this?
How do I make the "MMS" account appear again?

contacts not working!

What's Up? Just have a quick question about going from wm5 to wm6. I had tried to transfer my contacts by just moving the pim file over like I have always done in the past. This time it just makes my screen crash on wm6 has anybody else had this problem?

The PIM files of WM5 and Wm6 are NOT compatible. YOu have to go the normal way - syncing. So hardreset - new partnership and active sync.
SOrry - only way - i guess.
ahhh alright thanks

Or... you can install PIM Backup on WM5, take a backup with it, then install WM6 and then run PIM Backup there to restore you contacts, addresses, SMS, phone log, etc... This works since it does not restore the actual PIM but uses a CSV (or similar) type file to backup and restore from. Very handy for moving between versions and roms.
nice moved everything right over. thanks

Restore Pics/Video MMS Account

I flashed one of the cooked roms to my device. It already had Arcsoft 3.0.26.11c installed.
I used Spb Backup to restore my SMS and it deletes the Pics/Video account from the messaging screen.
The settings are still intact, but the account is gone. Is there a way to manually restore this?

back up in WM5

How do I perform a backup using ActiveSync. I mean the whole backup, not just PIM information. in WM2003 a backup by ActiveSync would save life if my PDA crashes or doesnt work. Is this feature missing in WM5? Any solutions?

Where does WM5 / WM6 storage the sms messages?

What title said...
My girlfriend wants to keep her sms messages.
Where does WM5 storage them?
Does nobody knows this?
Messages are kept in WM6 (and I think WM5) in a file called cemail.vol. Contacts, addresses and calendar are in pim.vol. Normally these are read/copy/write protected by the system, so you won't be able to copy and paste them. Use something like PIM Backup by FdcSoft to backup and restore emails and other info.

App backup tool?

is their a tool to back up my apps cause im going to change roms also can i just copy my program files and will that give me my apps in the new rom? also if i do that will i get the icons and the ability to uninstall them?
There are many backup apps for WinMobile, such as Sprite Backup and SPB Backup, but be aware that if you change ROM, the backup won't be restored correctly. In this case, you will have to reinstall again everything you had before. Maybe Microsoft Myphone can do better..but I never tried and I would be extremely surprised.
i have change rom and i use pim backup, spb backup and sprite backup for messages, mail, call list. You can also use myphone.
For contacts and appointements i use actyvesync.
I re-install all programs with cabs, i don't thinks if you copy your programfiles it would work. For me all my cab for WM6.1 works with WM6.5.
