Opening xBackup files - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

Hi
My XDAIIi is stuck on the align screen. To try and repair it I recently downloaded a new ROM version and this briefly seemed to work, but alas the screen froze and when I hard reset it returned to the align screen problem. Any suggestions? (I am able to access the phone through cradle connection). If this is irrepairable then I need to access my contacts on the phone which are saved as a xBackup file on the memory storage card. Is there a program I can use to get my contacts off the phone?
Thanks

Look at http://pocketpcmag.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=16922 - there is a tool called xBackup extract from "Menneisyys".

HELP I Cant Install any programs (cabs)

When I clicked on the Remove Programs icon, the Programs in storage memory was blank. No programs were listed. However, all the programs on the tilt work.
The other odd thing is that cant install anything now. I tried to install a cab and I received the "programs was unsucessfully installed". The last program I installed before I noticed this issue was resco. Any ideas, I dont want to try a hard reset. Thanks.
i hjave the same problem!!!!!!!!!!!
Very strange - I have the same issue and it just started today. Installed software won't run and I can't install any cabs. Just says it was unsuccessful.
Anyone?
try downloading pocket mechanics, it shows all programs installed and a clean up tool and see if it shows it there, u can delete them through ur program files....see if that works lettme kno how it goes
Tried soft resetting a few times - nothing. Backed up device to my storage card using Sprite Backup and did a hard reset.
Before restoring I tried to install a cab - worked.
Restoring device now from backup....
After restoration installation of cabs - Unsuccessful. Must be sometime in the registry/system?
My question - what did we do in common to get this problem?
Today I swapped SIM cards with another AT&T phone and then put the original one back. I also ran the JumpSPL1.56KAIS on the device but reset at the tri-color screen due to a lack of time.
It is very frusterating as I dont know what to do. Any since I cant load any programs like pocket mechanics I dont know what else to do. Backups didnt help and I know the ones I had a month back showed the programs listed in the Remove Programs tool. THERE MUST BE A REG HACK THAT WILL FIX THIS! Anyone?
The last programs I installed before this happned was the Resco explorer.
Also I have a activesync issue that started about the same time which I have in another post.
I ended up hard resetting it again and am just re-installing everything.

Uninstalled tomtom 6 - Kaiser now dead :|

I decided to uninstall Tomtom 6 - and it just sat on the hourglass for ages, so i reset my Kaiser - now it freezes when it gets to the "enter your PIN" screen.....
So i guess i have no option but to wipe the phone now?! :S
okay so i wiped my phone, restored using Sprite Backup, horray!
However, for some weird reason, whenever i try to copy from my phone to my PC (just using windows explorer via Activesync), it 'pretends' to copy the files (will recreate the folder structure) but NO files are copied?!
Any ideas anyone?
OK fixed it, had to re-register ole32.dll for some reason!
How random...!

Sprite Backup Problem

Ok so this morning I go to backup my phone since I haven't done it in 4 months. I open up the Sprite Backup program and set it to back up the phone. It restarts the phone (as usual) and begins the backup process on startup. Then, when it finishes, it restarts again but it won't boot up. It goes to a white error screen that says something along the lines of "A program with an unsigned cab has been installed" or something like that and says to "press the SEND button to reset the phone or any other button to cancel. This operation will delete all of your personal data and reset the phone to factory settings."
Uh-oh, I thought... So I hit another button because I don't want to lose all of my personal data. It stayed on the white AT&T screen with the R, G, and D numbers on the bottom right corner.
After resetting and taking out the battery and resetting again, nothing changed. So I popped the microSD card into my computer to see if SpriteBackup actually finished backing up the system. Hey! It was there, about 62MB in size and it was a whole file (no corruption), with today's date and the time that I backed it up. So I said, alright, let me just turn on the phone, press the SEND button to reset it, and then just restore the Backup file with SpriteBackup. I did it and it restored it, but after rebooting, the initial configuration screen for the phone kicks in again (the one that comes up when you first buy the phone) and it reinstalls the "stock" programs and settings.
Almost everything is back to normal, except:
I'm missing some contacts that I've added within the past 3 months.
I'm missing some text/MMS messages since May 19th...
In the "Remove Programs" windows, there are only 5 programs installed, the ones that come stock with the phone.
Does anyone know a solution? Or if there's a way to transfer my contacts/messages out of the SpriteBackup file to my computer, i might as well just wipe my phone clean, install an updated rom, and start from scratch.
All I need are all my contacts and my messages. Does anyone know where they are located?
Thanks in advance..
I have my backups on another PC so I can't give you step by step indications looking at the screen. If your backup was successful, I see two options:
1) on device: open Sprite Backup, select restore, on the backup selection screen check the folders you want to restore ("email", "personal databases" …) and restore
2) on PC with full Sprite Backup version: copy the backup file to the PC, open it on the PC with Sprite Explorer, select the folders/files to restore (I think contacts/appointments/tasks are under "Database/pim.vol" and text/MMS maybe under a "mail" folder). Good luck.

Out of the box, Sprite Bkup LOOP!
Hello,
First time user for Sprite Backup!
I tried to do a "Sprite Backup" to a 2 GB miniSD card, with "600 MB" FREE space on card, from ATT WM 6.1 on Kaiser loaded from "factory"" ROM and Radio.....loaded with Sprite Backup. Not an added software.
When asked to confirm placement of backup to SD card and Sprite will restart / reboot , YES OR NO I ticked YES.... Kaiser turned off.. Back on to ATT white splash screen ...Than....Windows Mobile Splash Screen (the GREEN one for WM6.1) . . . than shuts it off again.... turned back on ATT Splash screen than WM Green Screen... than shut off again....than on and off and off and on. I have to remove the battery to stop the LOOP!
SO now I can NOT get to WM, nor connect with ActiveSinc, nor do an Update, nor re-flash to original ROM from miniSD, nor work with Mitty.exe...
I either have the "Loop de Loop" or I can Camera plus ON/ off to Tri-screen with USB on screen.... but no re-flash ECT.....
I had a FULL battery with charger plugged in charging the Kaiser, so there was NO power interruption or power loss. And I did not have any time to interrupt the Sprite Backup.
Please HELP me restore my Kaiser, I am is desperate need of this for work....
PS I can not access the Kaiser to SEE what the Sprite Backup version it is in the ATT Ce 05.5.2.1620 (Build 18.125.0.4.2)
Rom 1.57.502.2 (with ATT Factory Upgrade to 6.1....
ALL FACTORY ATT ROM and Radio installed.
I didn't take Note of the Sprite version BEFORE the "Loop de Loop" happened.. Sorry I don't know the factory installed version?
FIXED!
Somehow with KAISERUNLOCKER dot exe ? But the prgm only made 2 out of the 3 steps so I didn't think it worked .... UNTIL....
I could Hard reset than run Att/Cingluar WWE updated ROM and everything worked. HOOOO RAH!
Sprite support didn't reply even after 5 DAYS!
Not even a "sorry to hear you are having problems"... ETC
So I wouldn't buy from them...... Buy and use at your own risk!
Hope that HELPS someone!
Later.....

Accidentally deleted ActiveSync folder on the Diamond

Hi.
I seem to have a problem. While trying to fix a "thing" i deleted the whole activesync folder on my htc diamond. And as a result I can't get my phone synced anymore. Is there any chance I can make it work without changing the firmware and stuff?
Thanks.

NAV-U50 how to restore the OS

Hello,
i have accidentally deleted the wrong folder on my GPS and now i can not boot it anymore.
hardware details:
Sony NV-U50
without SD card slot.
what i have done
originally this device has the sony nav-u navigation software installed running on windows CE....
i have found here in the forum and other forums some posts on how connect the device to my pc and get the igo8 running on it.
so after doing all the procedure i got igo8.3 to run on that device.
but i had to manually start it via total commander.
so i have deleted the contend from the nav-u folder and replaced it with the igo folder contend... and now the device does not boot anymore :-(
after the sony splash screen i get a picture with "INSTALL" text.
before i did all this i have done a backup from the folder but now is the question how do i get it back on the device? i can not connect it back to my pc... it does not get to the sync mode anymore...
any advice would be helpful and would save me from buying a new device.
thank you very much.
also i have opened the device to search for a flash card or something....
i could not find any storage card :-(
