Hi,
i flashed the TOFCLOCK HIMA WM6 AKU.0.7.0 Fresh
upgrading from WM5.
After that I restored a Sprite-Backup that I made from
WM5 to get all my Apps up and running.
Everything works fine so far, only the camera-button is
not working. It says "Error opening the shortcut or locating
the target filename".
I tried to reconfigure the button under Start->Settings->Button
but there I cannot find the Camera Application???
It is gone somehow. I also dont find it with file-explorer.
Can someone tell me the NAME of the Application, where it should
be located? \Windows - folder I guess???
And can I separately install it, do I only need the exe or also some
dlls.
Can someone provide me the files?
Thanks in advance for any help
Greetings
did u hard reset it after Flashing
the NO,YES,YES Way
Yes, I did this.
I also checked the camera BEFORE applying my Sprite-Backup
and it worked there.
Unfortunately I did not check the filename of the camera app
or saved it.
It is a bit strange since I dont know exactly how sprite backup
applies its backup...
Also I dont want to redo the complete flashing process since
my sprite backup is not up to date right now and my pc for
syncing is at my workplace...
So my Idea was to just "reinstall" the camera app or just
copy the files to the pocketpc to get it working again.
The problem is your backup..u say that u made the backup from Wm5 and restored it to WM6....Even windows has some limitations...WM5 Is a lot different then Wm6.U cant run WM5 Backup on WM6..my advise is that u hard reset it and then see if its working
I know that sprite backup causes the problem.
but I use some apps (financial and business organization)
that I dont know how they store their data on the pocketpc
and they dont sync anymore with vista and new windows
mobile center.
Currently spritebackup is the only way I get them to work again
on WM6 ;-) so I need to apply it.
Since I dont have any other problems right now beside the
camera I am pretty happy with WM6 on my "old" device.
I dont need camera very often but every now and then it
comes in quite handy.
I guess I wait till i come back to my workplace next year,
make a current sprite backup then reinstall WM6, save camera app,
apply sprite backup, apply camera app ...
and see if it is working.
Hi, tschombe
go 2
windows\start Menu\Programs\camera.lnk
the shortcut should read
:MSCAMERA?shellres.dll,-8263
then soft reset
first copy the shortcut from ur ppc to pc and drag it on a notepad..their u will see what hesham wroted..if it doesent match..fix it..and overright the shortcut by copying it back
sorry, I was on vacation for a while.
I tried the above solution, there was NO shortcut, so I created
a new one with notepad and copied it to my ppc
Now I have a shortcut that opens FileExplorer on the root folder,
when I tab the shortcut?

I am having major problems installing TT3 on my new XDA 2i, it keeps coming up with an issue about not displaying correctly as it was meant for an earlier version of ppc and then wont load, it also has t versions of the gps software on it that I cant get rid of the icons from the programmes menu.. Can anyone help or tell me how they got round the problem please.
Thanks.
Please can you explain your problem in more detail. Thanks
It sync's and transfers files but they do not extract when loaded onto the XDA, all I get a pop up box (twice) that says that there may be display problems as I am using a newer os then ttn3 etc.............., Then when you look in the windows folder and select ttn3 it says no application associated with the file. The GPS programme installs, but then if you uninstall you get left with the icon for the gps prog. left in the programmes folder (I now have 2 icons in that folder). Hope that makes it clearer.
try doing a hard reset ,,but backup first with sprite ,, and see if that helps ,dont worry about that message it will always come up about not being able to display
Ok, Will try that. Is it best to load TT3 on before restoring?
no backup first incase it doesn't work ,then you can always go back to your old setup and get back any lost info
I want to try summiters new 2.3 rom, however, i have been flashin my cingular 8125 about 3 times a week, and im sick of setting it up from scratch each time. is there something out there or can you tell me what files i need to back-up to maintain settings for:
-what speed dials are assigned
-voice dials i have saved
-my tcpmp settings
-my browser cookies so i dont have to relog in to all my porn sites
-my settings for what alert tones to use and when to use them
is it possible to back any of that crap up and restore it after a new flash? thanks pimps!
Bah, no responses. I was hoping that there was a "backup my settings" app
WELL if you are using the same rom version each time which idont think you are. then spb backup is the way to go
i mean it costs a little and you can backup your sys data as well as your settings txt msgs and **** like that. Now if you upgrade to a different rom version everytime then its not likely that you will want to back up system data as it could screw up your wm5 and then you have to reflash again.
theres also sprite too but never tried it
tried spb and it doesnt work that great. it almost works perfectly but it doesnt hmm i might retry it tho cuz i think you can specify what **** to backup
http://www.spritesoftware.com/
I've got SPB too, but I've never reflashed. Under the Custom Backup you can choose 4 things-PIM, Tasks, Email & System Data. Does anybody know if it can use everything but the "System Data" setting to restore the PIM, tasks & email after a ROM upgrade? Would it save the registry changes too? Thanks.

yes u can restore the 3 things but not the registry because it is saved on the "System Data" portion of the backup.
and gizm0luvsu is correct if you restore from a full backup it will revert the rom [os] to the one u made de backup regardless of the rom you have currently.
You can backup your voice tag database between hard resets by copying the file CommandModel1.bin found under the windows folder to your pc or to the memory card. After rom upgrade copy it back to your windows folder and all your voice tags are back!
Create backup of windows\start menu - most programs that are on the storage card dont need a reinstall.
Create copy of pim.vol in the root directory of the device - contains contact and appt information. After flash change the new pim.vol to pim.vo and copy and paste old pim.vol (use total commander or gsfinder file explorers for this) and soft reset and you will have info back.
Create backup of windows\favorites - for all your internet favorites.
That will make restore a bit quicker than otherwise.
thanks meschle, thats what i was looking for!
Is it possible to create a *.reg file like you would in windows that can just be executed on your device importing all you registry changes. I'm not talking about a full backup...only a file that says change this value, change that value, add this dword, etc.
Possible?
Yes you can use the export function of phm reg editor (or others) of the keys you wanted to save and restore them later.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I've searched the forums and google for an answer, and haven't found one:
I've gone to the PHM website: http://www.phm.lu/products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
Went to download, but I don't see a version for the OMAP processor and/or Windows Mobile 5 (WM5).
I tried using their MSI windows installer version, but when it launched ActiveSync's Add / Remove programs, PHM wasn't listed as an available application to install.
Which version do I download for use on the 8125?
Thanks, Mike
this one:
Thanks Dark, works like a champ, or rather like a registry editor champ
ok guys i have a lil problem and i hope you'll help me to solve it...
recently ive upgraded my 9090 to wm5 and ive made a backup using sprite software... however im not able to force that piece of software to restore my inbox and contacts on the new system... i have a fresh backup, made using wm2003 xBackup software and here goes the question...
is it possible to restore xBackup's backup file on wm5 (helmi 1.3.2)?
(the file is called CompactFlashBackUpPim)
No, you can't do it. The different versions of the OS store the data differently. You need to go back to 2003, activesync your contacts etc to your PC, upgade, then re-sync. I think the upgrade guide mentions this.
I always keep mine sync'ed anyway, so doing an upgrade is a very quick process. I also keep cabs on the SD card so I can quickly install everything.
and is it a way to see the data like appointments or contacts from that backup file?
Hi, I'm looking for full backup method of my TyTNII before playing new application installration as my insurance...
Because sometimes system freezed during my trial, especially trial of Japanese charactor installation. (We can not go to Windows Mobile screen from hTC logo page , so I have to system reset (2 Function keys + Reset)...then retry everything...>_<
I offen use Ghost for my PC to make a backup.
Do we have any idea of making backup for TyTNII such as Ghost?
Your ideas I appreciate!
I'am use spb backup, option full... bye

Also Sprite Backup 6.1 works nice in Kaiser WM6... i think better than SPB one... but only for me
I can personally attest that SPB Backup is a lifesaver. I was able to totally restore my Tilt last night after somehow managing to erase virtually everything.
Thanks all
I tried Spb last night, then could make a backup!
Thanks!!
I like Spirit Backup 6, which works really nice.
I have Sprite and Spb, my vote is Sprite. Although there is nothing wrong with Spb, Sprite gives me more options. Like backing up to the desktop.
When Sprite says it's going to "reset the device"....what does this mean? I don't want wipe everything off of the phone.
Also, how does it connect to the PC?
TIA
Sprite does a soft reset on your phone before it starts a backup, no it doesn't wipe your phone, just a normal soft reset. I'm guessing it does this just to make sure there are no programs running that can screw up the backup..
I too can attest to how well Sprite works. I've been using it since version 3 and I must say that version 6 works GREAT with the Tytn/Kaiser/Tilt. I by mistake half installed the MS Framework services (Don't do that!! ) and had to restore from backup which worked perfectly!
Now I'm not sure if this is a function of Sprite, or ActiveSync, but once you restore with this version you won't have to fully sync again which saves you from getting duplicate contacts,calendar events. With the older version you'd always need to do a full sync and ran into the issue with duplicate info..
Good luck!
-RT
OK, it resetting now.................
Now, it's backing up...............wow, 44.1M
Resetting again................
It worked! Backed up to storage card.
Thanks A Lot,
CR
With Spb, you can, using active sync, copy your backup file from your PPC storage card, to the hard drive of your PC. Then, if necessary, you can reverse and have a backup that you can use to restore in the event that you lose your micro storage card, or that it becomes corrupt.

Thanks. I'll be hitting the road today, but will try it this week sometime.
Does Sprite and/or SPB make an "image". Or is it just backing up "data"? Is the only way to make an "image" of your device to custom cook a ROM?
I use Sprite back-up...spb works good but the last time I used spb it didn't offer an option to restore after a ROM upgrade...don't know if spb added this feature but that's the only reason why I would choose Sprite over spb...
I use Sprite BackUp,very good program and restoring between different ROM versions or different devices.
Where to Find Sprint Backup Application

Thanks!!

HOW ??
plz explain step by step
Start/ setting/ then...........
I used to love SPB backup for keeping my data safe when I screwd up my phone too much, but for some reason I have less good experiences with the SBP / Diamond combination.
First all, my faforite contacts dissapeared from the TF3D tab when restoring a backup (happened to me several times), then my music player went crazy after another restore and finally it crawled up and died in a quiet corner after another restore... I had to hard reset to get it alive again... and re-install everything...
This never happened to me while doing the same thing on a HTC Touch...
Am I missing something or is SPB Backup not working properly on the diamond???
Is sprite backup any better???
Ps: I use stock NLD ROM 1.93
i don't like Sprite or SPB Backup for the Diamond, neither seem to work properly! At the moment i'm using Jeyo Mobile companion for the Contacts, Messages (SMS,MMS,Email) etc and it seems to be ok as it also saves the message threading too which is a bonus!
That is weird, i use spb backup also and have no bissues with that. just can advise you to go through all the settings as there are several that need to be set correctly. Also during restore you need to correct the options for restore.
If you set it up correct all will be restored.

What is your SPB backup version ?
I found SPB backup caused only problems with my M700. For the Diamond I just copy all data off, and fortunately use Outlook on Exchange to resyn contacts, email etc etc.
I then have to reinstall all apps :-(
I have it down to a 10 minute, fine art.
Have used Spb Backup for while with my Diamond and no problems.....perhaps a re-install of the program is in order

SPB backup 2.0 I think, I just downloaded the latest version and used that, su I am up to date...
I think the SPB cannot handle the internal memory or the TF3D settings or something...
I think I will make just backups of email and contacts etc and also learn how to install everything in 10 minutes like Sickboy555
[Idea] Would it be possible to create one big exe or cab file from several loose cab file's and maybe also integrate some reg tweaks, so I can install them all in one go?

I m using the latest version as well (2.0 something) and I have no problem at all,
I made restore from backup few times and all were ok..
The problems I saw that while using my local interface language instead English it made some problems, so I m using English iterface anyway and Just have to change from local language to English after HR..(u can use
other language , but b4 backup change to english)
2 more thing that u should take care:
1. save all the backup u make (once in 1-2 weeks or something) in your PC.
and if problem with one restore u can use the previous one..
sometines u have problem due program that u installed and u make a backup
with the problem (otherwise why to make HR and restote ?), and the prblem still exist after restore...
2. Do SR b4 backup , u get "clean" RAM for backup...
If you are discussing technical problems with a backup program, and you arent sure of the prog version, you are just wasting your own and everyone elses time. Find out.
hello,
before starting a backup reset your device.
and before you playing the backup back, reset it too.
than you will never became problems with your spb-tool.
sometimes you have really wait for ending of backup(ping) or restoring.
dont wait and reset your device and try again.
no prroblem that you dont know your version,
because a backup-program is for backup(ping)/restoring,
an essentuelly needed tool for all devices of the world.
dont sell if dont well !!!!
check the german o2-site (http://www.o2online.de/nw/support/downloads/software/xda/xdadiamond/index.html) for money-less backup-tool.

I have been using SPB Backup (and Weather and Shell) with no problems on my Diamond.
spb backup 2.0.1 build 3092
sometimes i had "messing" contacts (doubled from sim) but all the rest worked fine. I'm on 3rd rom installation and after flashing/Hresetting i just restore my last backup of the old rom using the option "rom upgrade" thicked.
all ok: custom weather, powermanagement, background 4all pages, font fix and so on... (to be sure i keep this "system" cabs in an internal storage folder named "mayday").
I run a scheduled nightly backup everyday

While u using nightly backup everyday it means u don't know if u have "stable" mobile since it makes restart
everyday after backup .. when I had problems b4 restore
old backup I got restart without reason every night, and I see it as problem...after restore no more restart every night..
I think sprint support messed with my diamond
I use spb backup 2.0.1 build 3092 as well and backups run fine. The only thing I don't like is that after backup runs it always wants a reboot even if you tell it not too, and the option to automatically enter pin on reboot doesn't really seem to work, it hangs on windows 6.1 green screen while booting and finishes when you enter the pin code. I haven't really played with restore though. I did find after talking with sprint advanced technical support the other day, my phone suddenly lost the tf3d quick contacts and then also required full contact sync with outlook. It seemed that something tech support did remotely wiped out all my contacts! Has anyone else ever experienced this? I thought this happened on my original touch as well once or twice. Does sprint have this capability? Has it ever happened to anyone else? Am I just paranoid?
