http://www.spritesoftware.com/downloads/SpriteBackupEnglishPremiumSetupPreRelease.zip
It fixes all XDAII problems and is our most comprehensive release to date. Please uninstall all Sprite Backup applications from your PC and XDAII device first. Please use the download to evaluate the product.If you so wish you can view the purchase options here;

Gigino
Thanks. I wonder why I didn't hear from them? I'm a registered user of the earlier (actually still current) version.
After downloading I tried to install but get an error stating
The installed version of the application could not be determined. The setup will now terminate"
Hey Ednap,

Gigino
Thanks, I had unistalled from PPC but not the PC backup agent. Have done so now and installation worked fine.
At last, have really missed this piece of software
Has the SMS issue been resolved with the new release?
Thanks

Yes, However you should run cleanmail.exe (from the sprite website), then start using Sprite Backup 3.0, and yes it will backup/restore SMS and Emails correctly.

This is a new rom which is still in the testing phases but works fantastic as I have been using it for a week. Here is a quote from Hemi_c post over at PPCGeeks.com
Quote from Hemli_c "the rom is with newest core available for apache device, and the rom size is big fat, so that why it can contain a lot of more space then any other rom for apache exist ( u might check my R2 it has a lot of big size APP) that will not possible with the current exist rom for apache...
the rom has a lot of new stuff, MMS 3.5.1.23 (Available is v3.0.16.16 ancient version), And WMP /Ringtones capabilities is now equal to newest hermes since it hub and Direct Show are new version (AAC, 3GP, AMR, MP4, Mp3, WMA, Wav, Midi, etc can be ringtone and play it with Windows Media Player), OS BUILT is 5.1.478 (old is 5.1.195), and other advantage and also its built with new kitchen method... but it still in testing phase... so some might not work correctly... For example WModem will not work if Microsoft Voice Commander is active... and anything else that I didn't know yet... please report issue when u hv them..."

Hello from venezuela
Ok
That ROM is used for any operator as I telephone?
I am of Venezuela and have an installed AKu 3,5 in my apache and is compatible with my mobil Serbian operator.
It´s possible to clarify this point to me.
He excuses my English but he is quite bad

Yes, any Apache rom should work as long as it is not designated as a carrier specific rom. For instance, some of the custom roms have the Sprint ExtRom built in. However, this rom from Helmi should work for all Apaches.

THANK YOU
Just wanted to say THANK YOU
I have a sprint ppc-6700 and upgraded my rom to CE and just did a quick test so far so good..
I do have one question.. would it be possible to get a "basic/light" version of the ROM without so many apps installed.
For example without, Adobe reader, voice command, all the ringtones/pictures, SPB, etc...
Please let me know and thank you again for all your hard work

Why?
Just disable the stuff. It is not taking up any of your usable memory. Also, check out some of the custom roms that are available at ppcgeeks.com. They are all based off of Helmi's previous releases of 3.3 and 3.5
thank you for the suggestion for PPCGeeks... i went over there and downloaded/installed the "Clean and simple AKU 3.5 for the Sprint Apache"
seems to be just what I wanted.. thank you again
Do I need to flash back to the original rom in order to use this rom. Im getting an erro message that says Im trying to install on the wrong type of device.. Im using a sprint ppc-6700.. If you dont want to post here, you can email me directly at [email protected] with instructions..

try putting it into boot loader mode first then flash the rom to it
how to download this rom
i can not down thru ftp server that i dont have user name and pass
Note that the newest ROM is now R4 and the link on the first page won't work as the files have all been re-arranged. I'm happily using a ROM I created from R3, as the R4 Kitchen seems to have some issues along with it's "creamy goodness".
If you go to the ppcgeeks FTP site and browse to Apache;Latest Kitchen, you'll see the new Kitchen.

pw: ezupload
Good luck.

Same with the above poster - cypherkin, really appreciate if someone could point us on how to - step by step - guidence - to load the roms for the first time for us newbies. Thanks for the info, as I cant wait to have the WM6 for our apache.

Hello,
I ahve posted a couple of times on here asking how I can update Opera Mobile on my Touch Pro to the latest version and the responses I got were a bit confusing.
Please can someone give me simple step by step instructions how how to upgrade Opera Mobile to the latest version and give me a link to someone that has the correct and working update files so when I new version comes out I can easily upgrade without posting on here asking where the upgrade files are.
Also, how do you set Opera mobile to be the default browser as some programs still open links in PIE which is not what I want.
Thanks
Regards,
Neil
Go to opera.com. Download the latest version. Install the cab. Use the search function next time.
well theres plenty of options. 9.5 is still considered beta. and theres a new build of it like every day. do a search and you can find the cab and just install it. newest versions are builds 15000 and up. they work well. ^_^
Yes, I know about the cab but that just installs a new copy and does not overwrite the current one.
Please tell me a simple way to overwrite the one on the stock rom with a newer version and I did search but did not find anything helpful too me
I also do not wish to change roms as my one is working fine so please do not suggest it
I heard the new version doesn't support the use of the autorotate feature (usind the accelerometer). This is why I have not updated. Is this true?

no its not. it has all the features of the older builds and more.
So how do you update like I asked above?
- Find the CAB with the version you want
- Use a task manager (like Advanced Task Manager) to kill the Opera processes (OperaL and OperaPre) if they are running
http://www.touchxperience.com/en/advanced-task-manager/downloads.html
- Run the install CAB like normal. It will ask to remove the previous version, then say it could not be removed. Continue, and you will finish with a "Installation unsuccessful" message. Just ignore it, Opera will be installed just fine. Open Opera and go to opera:about to confirm the version.
If you are doing a major update, you need to install from a CAB. If you are doing a minor update (eg: not from 19xx to 2xxx, or from 2xxx to 15xxx builds), you can just overwrite the Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe files, so that your preferences aren't overwritten/reset.
And please try searching -- this information has been posted dozens of times, and is posted again and again every time Opera gets updated in the Development & Hacking section.

Latest versions include all the features. However, some CABs overwrite the skin files and reset Opera settings, which may disable some features. You can always re-enable the features by editing opera:config, but some users have mistakenly assumed that the latest versions have removed certain things (zoom slide bar, auto-rotate, etc).
Thankyou for your help

I used their app generator to create a simple good looking RSS reader for my website. Unfortunately the latest update keep crashing on MS tester so they couldn't let me pass the certification process.
So I would like to ask for the older version(1.1) before mango update if you could provide me the XAP file that would be great. I believe that it can be modified from xap if I'm not wrong
I tried to find the way to extract it out of my phone but so far no luck or if someone that can extract the app out of the phone then could anyone please help me with this I know that "Winrumors" and "Economist Reader" app still use the old version of followmyfeed
Thank you
Update : I managed to get the older version unfortunately I couldn't just modify the app and re-deploy
Thanks for reading anyway
Hi all,
I hope this is the right area to ask this question but does anyone know where I can get the old version of apk's. I guess I'm looking for something like oldapps.com or oldversion.com but for apk's.
The reason is that a few of my favourite apps have been updated and the newer version isn't necessarily better.
Very recently I've found an app ('android assistant' but I'm sure there's more) which will backup the apk to the sd card which will help for the future if this happens again.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Nial.
Many file sharing sites have older versions. Just google "download app_name.apk" and you should get a long list of available versions.
