Hi,
I installed Cyanogen mod 7.1 ROM on my Wildfire Buzz. Unfortunately, i forgot to take a backup of my Messages/Contacts. I did take a backup of my original ROM though ( I mistoook this backup as the backup of all my data) called a Nandroid backup, i presume.
The problem is after the upgrade, i lost all my Apps. Now the Settings->Applications shows a blank screen. I have lost my Market icon. I am lost!!! However i backed up the contents of my SD card to my PC before starting the Cyanogen Mod process, and some of my Apps are on the SD card. I have lots of questions:
a) Is there a way to salvage my Contacts/Messages?
b) How can i restore the Apps/Games from the backed up contents of my SD card?
c) How do i get the Android Market icon?
d) Anything else i need to know post Cyanogen modding?
Please please help,
Thanks,
Regards.

You can try restoring your contacts by gmail contacts sync and if you had your contacts on your sim you can hit menu on the contacts menu and select import/export contacts
3rd how did you backup your apps?
Thanks...
I backed up my apps by just copying them to my PC. I know it sounds ridiculous but i honestly thought by backing up the ROM everything would be backed up. Anyway i copied them back to SD card after flashing Cyanogen. But Cyanogen refused to recognize them. Any alternatives? Also the battery life of my Wildfire has dramatically increased. It is now 3 days since i last charged my phone!!! Its incredible. Any explanations? Also what happened to some of the Settings like USB settings, Connect to PC settings etc? Any equivalents?
Thanks once again.
hello all
i lost my contacts out of the sudden, i just restarted my phone cos it freeze.
what can i do? plllllz help
Not much to do... You could try reflashing, but it's not certain you'll get them back. In future try to export them to your sd card in a vcf file or keep them in your Google account (If you already have them in your G account backup your apps and wipe the phone)

Files
For me, Trubackup scores higher because it backsup to dropbox rather than my SD, plus it lets me select the files I want to store. It has a 30 Day Trial free on googleplay, give it a whirl. Go to google play & search for turbackup and start using
Restoring problem and root.
So when i was on my galaxy s duos my device was rooted, i made some backups to my sd card, when i upgraded to the galaxy grand duos, i couldnt seem to restore anything from that sd card so then i decided to root it, now im having a problem that when i open the app, first off it doesnt ask for su permission, AND i still cant restore anything back from my sd card to the grand, im regretting using this app so much.. please if someone has a solution to this, share it with me.
I think Android Manager will meet your need. It is a management tool that can transfer files between computer and Android phone. You just need to launch it in you computer, and then connect your phone to computer. It will export files from MAC to Android and import files from Android to MAC. Just have a try! It will solve your problem.
This same app thread is available on XDA since 2013

Hi, I have Star V1277 phone and couple of days ago the phone wiped everything itself including my contacts, messages pictures and the most importantly my internal calendar.
I didn't sync it with google and I have very important notes in that calender.
How can you restore calendar and other stuff in this situation please help.
Thanks in advance.
Conect the phone to your PC/laptop and use Recuva from piriform to recover everything you need.

I deleted my contact storage apk iny android. My device is rooted.. without contact storage no contact show , What can I do? Thanks in advance
Does your phone have the option to show contacts even in the call app? Because most phones do. If not then re download the contacts apk, install it and make it a system app again. Hope I helped.
