I tried Sprite Backup and PIM backup but neither could backup and restore my settings. In detail I'm trying to backup the contacts y put in de quick dial with has the photos.
I backup, erase the links/photos in the quick dial and then restore, but neither restored the settings.
Has someone try this with this software or SPB backup and had exit?
I'm I doing something wrong?

Sunnysoft Backup Manager.
Does what it needs to do.
I use it for FULL backups to be able to revert quickly to previous setup or recover fast from hard reset.
It is able to create self-executable backup files.
Sprite Back-up. Install it and forget it.
Restores superbly from executable back-up file.
Has saved me a few times and I wouldn't be without it.

How affective is using activesync for backups?
i used to use the activesync backup option but then had a few data curruptions

xbackup restore
I did a xbackup on my device and then I went for the upgrade to the official final version UK O2 1.72.81 with Blackberry. Everything went smoothly but after the restore backup (it even restored sms, mms and e-mails, in short, the lot!) now my device is back in the original configuration although I now have Rom version 1.72.00WWE instead of the old 1.60.00WWE.
Is there an other way to restore a backup? I don't care about SMS MMS and stuff, I only want to keep settings as BT GPS, Internet GPRS settings, tt3 Navigator settings and so on. Contacts and Agenda are stored on the PC anyway. And I wanna use the Blackberry which was on it after the upgrade but is gone after the restore.
Or should I simply re flash the ROM and reenter all data for settings manually?
Thanks for helping

I've just installed TomTom Nav5 on my MDAIII, and will be going on holiday driving through France and Spain. I've had TomTom Nav3 do a hard reset on me before, when I took a call. So I need a backup system just in case it happens (god forbid) while we are away.
Am I right in thinking Sprite Backup will do a 'complete' backup of my device (everything), so if the thing hard resets I can just restore it without the need of a PC, and it will be as it was, programs, files, emails, sms etc?
If so, how do I restore from a backup from the SD card, if the device is back to factory settings, ie without Sprite Backup installed?
Thanks for your help

you put the spirite backup cab files in the extented rom so they auto install after a hardreset
Thanks for the reply!!
I don't 'play' with my MDAIII. How do I put it in the extended rom? iis that the 'storage' folder?

I don't think Extended ROM has enough space to store the backup file.. Anyway, u can still restore without Sprite Backup installed (handy after hard reset of course).. Just check 'Create self-restoring backup files' in General Backup Options..
i dont think he want to backup into the extented rom i think he want to backup on a SD card but his spritite backup is not installed after a hardreset so he want it to autoinstall so he can restore from the sdcard
You can create self installing .exe backup files with Sprite Backup, no need to add anything in the Ext rom.
Open Sprite Backup -> Options -> Backup Options -> General Backup Options -> Create self restoring backup files, tick this options.
Now you make a backup to your SD/MMC card
i would like to add the sprite backup cap to my extended rom, but i only have the software to install from a PC not a sprite cab file,
i also have a ipaq 4700 and this after a hard rest installs sprite, so should i try and get into the extended rom on the ipaq 4700 and copy the sprite cab from there
Thanks

I backup my device WM 2003 using SPB BACKUP
and i restore it to HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3 and only notice it does not work.
All i need now is PIM and SMS how to extract out ?.
OK i roll back to 2003 and restore the sms.. how to backup the sms to restore in WM6.1 ?
use PIM Backup program.
ALSO I CLEAR SAY THAT YOU SHOULD NOT RESTORE ANY BACKUPS ON NEW ROMS!
Restored using pim backup.
all the sent item corrupted.
Well nevermind atleast the contact working
i've looked ...cannot find the answer.
MyBackup Pro is easy to just restore contacts specifically, but i cannot find anywhere in Titanium Backup that lets you restore contacts without doing a full system restore ....at least there is no obvious option .....and i cannot figure out which part of the backup contains the contacts.
Anyone know?
*answer*
[contacts/calls]contacts storage
I have a full backup and If I select restore missing apps+system data I get FC after FC. If I just do restore all user apps and data all is fine. now the only thing I'm really missing is my sms/texts backups. Anybody know how to restore JUST those in titanium backup ? Our even just a forum and not a WIKI for TB ?
Thanks
Restoring your user apps plus data is fine but restoring system apps is never a good idea the only data I ever restore from the system is memo and bookmarks but ill give you a simple solution restore your user apps and data then if you want to use gosms to backup and restore your text messages I've been doing that for a long time
But if you must use titanium backup only backup the system data you need aka bookmarks memo and texts then just restore them
All you do to restore individual things is scroll through the list and tap on whatever u want then hit restore

to retrieve the sms you have to restore data for [sms/mms/apn] dialer storage and reboot your phone
Get sms backup and restore its much easier to manage them
