I'd like to do a complete backup of my device so if I play with new software or a new rom or something I can get it back to the state it is in now by just restoring from SD.
I'd hope this includes all the data, programs etc that are currently installed ie my TOMTOM Etc Etc.
Is this possible is there a program that does it I have no idea DO YOU?
Sprite backup will create a self extracting file on your sd card. This will get you up and running again from a hard reset but not if youve screwed the ROM.
I second Sprite - I'm constantly trying new software and messing about with the MDAIII and Sprite Back-up lets me get it back to a fully working - GPS, updated BT device in just a few minutes.
Hey Button...
How are you doing?
Well I got this Qtek 9100 few days ago and I tried to first backup my rom in my mini Sd card using your util wizBackup before using the newest room you made.
But the thing is I cannot see the mini Sd from the explorer anymore....
What should I do to see it again?
By the way do you know how to solve this activesync problem? I had to enable the IP settings for the PocketPc connection in order to make it work (despite of some windows error msgs after the connection), but then if I disconect and reconect again it will not work anymore.
Sorry by the length.
Thanks in advance

searching for wizBackup
I'm going to upgrade my ROM to the new one provided by Orange Entreprise.
I search for wizBackup, but didn't find it. Can anyone upload wizBackup or similar software and give me the URL please?
thanx,

Hi All!
I have the same problem: after using wizBackup I cannot see the mini SD anymore.
Formatting is impossible because card is not recognized by none of the programs which I try (ie: Pocket Mechanic, flash format...)
But I'v noticed when I insert or remove SD my QTEK is waking up but still card is not recognized properly :/
Any suggestions and help?
(sorry for my English)
Make mini SD visible again after using Wizbackup Tool!!
I had the same problem after the back up...
No tools that could make my SD card visible again, until I found this little tool!!!
With this tool you can use your Wizard like a USB memory stick and then you can format it again with your desktop Windows.
Just install and connect the Wizard with the USB and format!!!
Good luck!
Wow!!!
THX a lot Marvie. Your solution is working!
I know WM Storage, but not this way
Everything is ok now, thanks once more.
If You came to Warsaw/Poland - let me know, I own You a few beers
This method didn't work with my card but I've found better solution - just insert your card to SD adapter and then to photocamera and format it from this device. Works 100%
Can someone point me to a decent utility to backup my Cinguarl 8125 (i.e. Wiza100)? I read on one of the forums that the wizBackup.exe is a good file but I am not sure where to find it?
Thanks
wizbackup is a ROM backup/restore utility. Are you sure this is what you're looking for?
If you just want a regular backup utility (i.e. all your data, settings, etc.), look into one of these instead:
SPB Backup - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en
Sprite Backup - http://www.spritesoftware.com/pocketpc.php
Sunnysoft Backup Manager - http://www.sunnysoft.com/software.php?idarticle=51
I do want wizBackup
Hi Guys,
I understand that wizBackup.exe only backs up the ROM, which is what I want to do. Can you post it here because I cannot find it on the site either?
Many thanks,
That is exactly what I want too
Someone please post it for us.
Thanks.
Can't find it on the site now but...
...I did download it from here a couple of weeks ago.
Enjoy :wink:
Thanks for the post
Thanks for finding the download for us.
so that will back up all my tweaks and everything also?
No you have to use SPB or one of the others
i dont know if it was just me but when i tried to use this wizbackup..
my mmc became corrupt and i think i had to flash my phone again...
had to reformat my sd
I was recently VERY disappointed with SPB backup. It backs up fine, but the restore doesn't work. It corrupts the e-mail database during the restore and requires me to basically hard-reset it again and reinstall my apps.
I'll try Sprite next.
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Don't use Wiz-backup, I used it to back up just a few minutes ago.
It wrote a backup file to my card, and then the software followed through some steps to use terminal software to copy the file off the card to my computer.
As soon as it begun copying to the card, I noticed I could not see the card under file explorer anymore. Either from my pc or the 8125.
My 2 gb mini-sd card is now un-readable.
I have downloaded a software called SPtaskmanager which would normally be able to reformat the card, right from the 8125. This software does not even recognize a card is in the slot, and the card does not show up in the 8125 file explorer or anywhere else I can see.
I don't have a card reader, that is the only thing left I know I can try, unless somebody knows some steps from a terminal software to take?!
NOT HAPPY!

I believe i had to reformat the card through a card reader on windows.. i had the same problem
OK so there IS HOPE.
Thank you!
/eagerly awaiting arrival of card reader
Why?
Why does this ROM backup prog. corrupt the Mini SD Card? I have a similar card. And also is it worth backing up the ROM? Because from what I have read one can't really downgrade the ROM once upgraded, so what's the use of backing it up anyways...
I don't think that ROM backup programs actually store the data in a directory & file layout, they just dump the whole ROM data block onto the card sequentially, which would indeed wipe out any existing directory structure. I'd have thought a ROM backup/restore utility would have to run at a very low OS level, without any file handling routines installed.

Flash disk now useless.....or is it? Help
I also used WizBackup and I am now left with a corrupt flash MiniSD card that no computer seems to be able to read or format. Does anyone know a way to reformat the card now that i have given it total amnesia??? Any help would be greatfully accepted. Sandisk was useless.
Thanks.
Can one backup Rom to PC and restore from PC if one doesnt have SD Card??
Thanks
As Andrew posted, it writes the data onto the card directly.. Like an image of the ROM. To properly recover your card your gonna need a card reader and a tool to format it. Try this software to recover and reformat the card... http://www.datadoctor.in/
Good Luck
Don't get it..?
First you back up your ROM on a your card, then if it gets corrupt (but it does mostly) you reformat it! What was the point of backing up? Isnt't the data lost..? :roll:

I think people are getting confused with the backup util. That util should be used with a 128meg SD which the systems backup the rom image to. Then you can use that card for later restores. But using a 2gig SD with your personal data on it is a no no, since the backup tool will write to the card without regard for format.
Is it possible to flash BA with SD, and image on it. I try it and put BLUEIMG.nbf a stuck at white screen and it says "Serial". Help
Probably useless but *BUMP*. I have asked this before and never got a definitive answer or methodology.
Solution
I have a solution, it is good when you don't have USB cable like me.
1. Woking blue angel (with WM2003)
2. You need mtty
3. SD Card at least 64MB
Open mtty, put sd card in
Type:
Code:
USB>d2s 70020000 1060000 sd
It will take 4 minutes to complete dump.
Put SD in BA, go to bootloader.
Help
Can somebody use this method, and upload the dump so others can repair their BAs, I cant upload it becouse I dont have USB cable. Thanks
would love this...especially a wm 6.1 build
Come on people... Try it and UPLOAD...
Hi, this is my first post on this forum and i'm hoping to get some help to solve my problem.
I have an unlocked ATT treo 750 that i'm currently using with T-Mobile. I was happily running windows 5 and decided to try this new windows mobile 6.5 so i downloaded the rom from a thread on this forum and i ran the update process while my phone was connected to windows zync porgram, so it worked fine, but as soon as i rebooted my phone to the new windows 6.5 it gave me the
"This concludes de beta test of this software release...." now i try to reconnect my phone to my pc to zync and flash another rom but i won't recognize the connection.
what can i do, i know there is a way to flash a rom using your mini sd card but i'm not sure about this process....tell me if i have it right:
1. format your mini sd card using fat32, using a computer with a card reader (i can't format it using my phone cause of ovious reasons)
2. copy the rom image to the mini sd card on the root folder. the rom image should be in .nbh format. (i have a rom called CHEEIMG.nbh by Navenedrob)
3. re-insert the mini sd cad to the phone.....I DONT KNOW WHAT DO AFTER THIS, and what do you mean by HARD SPL or SPL... is it a file i should copy along with the CHEEIMG.nbh file in the mini sd card????
PLEASE HELP ME.. what buttons do i press on my treo 750 to trigger installation...?????
thanks
Hello there if you look a couple of threads down on main form page there's a post by Navenedrob who gives step by step instructions on how to sucessful complete the whole process
I did it about 2 weeks ago as a newbie and it very easy to follow very good update
Also make sure you download and use his WM6.5 ROM. No expiration date ...

Hi,
I'm sorry, I wrote that tutorial for people who couldn't use HARD SPL (A piece of software that lets you flash the phone) to get Windows Mobile 6.5.
Try formatting the memory card to FAT32 using a card reader, then from your computer, download the ROM here and paste it onto your memory card (ROM Link- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541417 ).
Load the memory card into the phone.
Where you've just loaded the memory card, there is a Reset button. It's tiny, and its located where the memory card slot is.
On the other side of the phone is the Media Button. It's the one below the volume buttons. Hold this button down and press the Reset key with your stylus.
The screen should load into the "Bootloader" mode and try to scan your memory card. If it recognises the CHEEIMG.NBH file, it will ask you to press the Call End key and then go on installing itself (I hope).
After saying all this, please note that I'm not an expert and had to experiment. I didn't however brick my phone with a Beta release so I'm giving you this in the hopes that it will work.
Just make sure you have the CHEEIMG.NBH file. It may have a different filename (anything that comes before .nbh), you just have to rename it.
Secondly make sure your card is formatted to FAT32. Google it if you don't understand or if you don't know how. I use a mac so formatting is easy.
Thirdly, familiarize yourself with starting up in Bootloader mode.
Have a play, I hope this helps.
