Sprite Backup

I think sprite backup is not freeware

oh, sorry
i'm not saw "freeware"
AFAIK there is no freeware backup software for WM5
But i think you can export all registry hives with freeware reg editor
so you'll backup all your settings
then you can backup all your PIM data. Just copy *.vol files into the root of your phone. Or you can use rather soft (i can search one) for backup that data
or you can backup it via ActiveSync
And last (but not least backup your folders like Program Files
But this is not full backup
some of applications use windows folder and other system folders
so this applications failed after restore. so you must reinstall it (but your settings in the registry )
i think this is strange case for backup, but it is freeware backup

Backup 8125

is there i program i can download to Backup all my contacts and ect..? i want to back up all my contents cuz i wanna try a new rom.. but dont wanna loose everything if i decide to come back to my original rom..is this possible?
ActiveSync? This is how I back up all my contacts with outlook/ outlook express etc.....
ActiveSync will only backup your contacts, calendar, tasks, and the files in your "\My Documents" folder. However, to backup everything, you can use a program like Sprite Backup or SPB Backup (both are shareware). I use Sprite Backup personally and I like the way it works for me. Reguardless of the backup program though, make sure that if you are changing the AKU version of your OS that you do not restore a full backup. Read the manual and restore only upgrade backups and the like. Also, the contacts, SMS's, Call timers and such will not restore through an upgrade from AKU 1.x or 2.x to an AKU 3.x system. At least I haven't seen a way to do it yet. Well, I hope this helps a bit ^_^
Pim Backup works really well in backing up and restoring your email, sms messages, mms messages, contacts and stuff. The latest is 2.8 and it is freeware.

Back up call history

I searched, but i was looking for a program that would back up my call history. any ideas?
PIM Backup
Search for an App Called PIM Backup. (Or Find it here)
question
Here what am wanting to do. I need to save call history but I want to flash to Dutty's new rom. Is it possible to do Pim backup and flash to a new rom?
thanks in advance.
Yep
Install PIM Backup on your Phone, backup whatever you want to a file. Use Active Sync to copy the file to your desktop. Flash the ROM and then use PIM Backup (already installed on Dutty's ROMS) to restore the data from the Backup File.
Personally, I use PIM for Call Hist, Messages, Speed Dials and OneNote Folders. The contacts, calender and tasks are backed up by Active Sync.
All the best with Dutty's Rom.

Extract files from .exe Sprite Backup file?

I made the misstake and backup my phone with Sprite Backup to a .exe file instead of a .pbf file... Now I can't restore the files I need without a fully restore. This would not be good as I have upgraded the ROM.
Does anyone know how I can extract some files from this backup file (.exe)?
I have tried Sprite Explorer but it doesn't work.
Also, does anyone know if Sprite Backup backups SMS?
Edit:
Can answer myself... I made a FULL restore of my backup file and it seems to have restored the ROM? and also all the SMS and everything... So now I have installed Spb Backup and made backup of those files I want to backup...
Works fine for me... I can extract any file I like from my sprite (.exe) backup files using Sprite Explorer 6.2.2
Hi studtz,
Can you tell where did you find Sprite Explorer 6.2.2? I cannot find it anywhere on the net...I do have the same trouble to get my contacts from Sprite backup "exe" files with Sprite Explorer 1.0001.etc... I do need help on this...
Does anybody knows about it?

Hi,
I've made a backup using SPB on my MDA from T-Mobile (Diamond.)
Now, I've updated to Dutty ROM and everything works fine.
However, when I restore the backup from SPB (.exe) and do only restore PERSONAL DATA the device doesn't boot anymore. I must do a hard reset to make it boot again.
I only want to get my SMS. Contacts etc. is all in Outlook 2007.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Same problem here!
Same Explorer problem (.exe)
I'm about ready to run at Sprite Backup with a chainsaw. I just wanted to back up my contacts and now I can't sync them to my phone by themselves. The program always fails. Is there an alternative? Must I use ActiveSync to connect?
hello guys.
I changed my Rom on HTC Touch HD, and i run the spritebackup.exe .
My problem is that i dont see my contacts in the new Rom.
Furthermore I have the sprite explorer on my laptop, but i dont know where are the contacts, which saved on the backup.exe .
Could anyone help me to find the contacts in the sprite explorer ? Which is the tab(of sprite exlporer) including the contacts ?
thanks guys

Restoring from Sprite after 6.1 Upgrade

I have a full backup of my 6.0 machine and can't restore it after the wonderful 6.1 upgrade. I'm on an exchange server so emails and contacts are no big deal but I would like to restore my text messages. Can I move these over individually without doing a full restore? I can move the "messaging" folder from the sprite explorer but how do I get them on the tilt? Thanks in advance.
would like to know as well!
Can't be done. Sprite Backup cannot be used to restore from ROM to ROM.
You will need to flash back to WM6, restore your Sprite backup, and then use a program called PIM Backup to archive your text messages.
After flashing WM 6.1 again, run PIM Backup again and restore your text messages.
I thought the latest versions of Sprite and SPB backup could do some ROM to ROM stuff.
Although I personally wouldn't recomment it. UC + ProvXML + my xcopyce app + ActiveSync does everything I need.

They can, but just as you said, it's not recommended. With all the unofficial builds that the ROMs here tend to be based on, it's just not wise to carry any programs over from flash to flash.
A friend of mine upgraded and used sprite (even though I told him not too), is there any way to pull JUST the contacts from the Sprite file??
You can do it. I went from WM6 to WM6.1 and used a backup I did from 6 to restore everything to 6.1.
The only tip I can give you is this.
Do not restore anything in the file system data unless its non application stuff you put there, pictures, skins, browser favourites etc.
My phone works fine I have all my old contacts, mails and pim entries from my old rom. I just re-installed my apps that were on my phone, not my storage card. Anything that runs when the phone is switched on I always install to the phone. I even restored my start menu and found that most of the games and apps I installed to the memory card run fine, they just sometimes require you to re-enter the registration details the first time you run them after restoring.
You are restoring data not programs so it should be fine.
i disabled sms threading in kaisertweak. tried to do restore using sprite again and all my sms messages show up but now i have a text message saying "account locked. company policy prohibits use of text messaging on this device. you ocannot send or recieve text messags."
also when the restore was done i got an error about sddeamon.exe
Thanks funem but when how do you specify which files to restore? When I start it makes sure I want to restore "everything." Also, I have the 10-day trial of the newest sprite but when i try and restore it says the program must be authorized to run. I emailed tech support because the trial says that it should be fully functional throughout the trial period. although its only a $10 upgrade, a free trial run just to get my text's back was all I was looking for.
When you start a restore it should take you to a tree view of the data backed up with checkboxes next to each available branch, just remove the ticks from the boxes where you dont want to restore data.
Can anyone tell me a List of things we need to install

Using Sprite Backup 1st time:
Here's another "Can anyone tell me?" question:
How long should it take Sprite Backup to run on it's first time?
I went to the program, clicked Backup, it did a reset and came up to the
Windows
Mobile
Version 6.1
screen and has been there for a long time.
How long does it take? Is it hung, or is it working?
Thanks!
EDIT:
I waited a long time, then did a soft reset and it came back and ran properly and reset.
All good, thanks anyway.
