i think he means it's not taking the password he put in when it asks for it, if it was put in correctly. make sure you're putting it in correctly if that's not it, then is it possible you originally put the password in wrong?
hello there, after I.ve restore the back up file, there is double icon like internet explore and extra one says internet explore (2,) and same to file expolore and file explore (2), and I couldnt delete the extra icon, did I back up wrong?

It will duplicate if you HR then make changes b4 restoring. You can use a tool like Pocket Mechanic or SK tools to easily delete duplicate shortcuts.
Otherwise you can delete them through your desktop via activesync or with a file explorer such as resco.
All of them have free trials, but I couldn't live without SK Tools.

Yes, it didn' t take the correct password. I sort it out putting the same password (6 digits) for restoring (it was 6 digits) and for locking (it was 4 digits).
Probably, it was a conflict between the 2 passwords... thnx anyway...

I am trying to use Sprite to backup my Tilt but it requires a restart. When it restarts, the device is locked because I have Good installed and Good requires a password. When I enter the password Sprite does not do the backup. Any ideas? Thanks
Back up the shortcut for Good that is in the start up folder, then delete it from the start up folder. Do your backup then copy paste the shortcut for Good back into place.

Thank you. It won't let me delete the file because it says it is in use. It's not showing as an active program so it must be running in the background. Any ideas how to stop it?
Thanks.
I also had some Sprite backup issues. After upgrading to their version 6.1, the problems went away.

You should have no problem deleting or moving a shortcut as it is only a link and not a running program.
Are you sure you are in 'Windows' 'Startup' and not somewhere else?
Try copying and pasting it using File Explorer on the PC through Activesync connection.
backup problems
I also have problems after restoring my backup. Under my start menu, office mobile was added and can not be removed. Another windows media was also added in programs. Please help.
Hello!
I just did a backup of my sms and it get into files named "Messages" and the question is where should I put them after I have done a Hard reset?
Anywhere you want thats not on device memory, i.e. safe locations like computer, or maybe google .
SD card is normally a safe place to store it too.
Ah ofc heh But where to put the file when I have reset my phone?
So I can get all my messages in the phone again
Well its much easier to use a program for that, such as PIMbackup
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705
it will output a backup file on ur choice of directory, then u can just double click the backup file and it will load everything back onto the device in their designated location!
have fun
Hi everyone,
help me! I see something very strange that I've never seen before. I go into my contacts and there are 5 contacts there called "Unnamed" and there's a sim card icon next to them with a lock. I can't delete them, I can't do anything! What are those? There's nothing in the sim manager. Oh and I'm using the original wm6.1 rom with an at&t sim.
Thanks!
help meeh
anyone? pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?
try deleting from another phone?
Do they appear in Outlook when synced to your PC? If so, can you delete them there? If not ChumleyEX's idea sounds like the best course of action...
I had a similar thing happening on an iPod, corrupted songs which can't be deleted
strange
thanks for your replies! i tried to put my sim into another phone and there were no unnamed contacts there. i don't have outlook (ew, i don't like to use it), so i can't look there. i dunno what are those.. agh
Anyone?? I have the same issue and nothing works... Happened when switched to Aserg ROM and then was frequently switching between SIM cards from different countries..
right,
yeah it happened to me when switching between sim cards from different countries too!
does someone know how to delete Outlook databases?
I have old crap there, spb Diary was able to show me a email account folder which doesnt exist anymore for months! All uneccessary data is still stored in \*.VOL files(
solved it by trick I already used before:
1. backup contacts etc
2. rename \pim.vol to \pim.vol1
3. reset
4. delete \pim.vol1
-> Contacts is empty, <Unnamed> entries are gone

awesome! thanks, that did it for me too. strange bug or whatever though
this is making me nuts. i have them again. i just switched my sim cards and tadaa.. now i can backup restore again.. is there any way to stop it?
I have the same problem. They showed up after upgrading to WM 6.1 and I can't get them to go away.
I have unnamed contacts on my phone but am a bit confused by what to do to get rid of them
1. backup contacts etc
2. rename \pim.vol to \pim.vol1
3. reset
4. delete \pim.vol1
-> Contacts is empty, <Unnamed> entries are gone
Can anyone please tell me where I am supposed to rename pim.vol? Do I do that on the phone and if so, where do I find it? If I do it on the computer can you please let me know where I locate this \pim thingy
yup, I'm a newbie

You can rename it on the phone...use your file explorer and go to "My Device" scroll down till you see a file called pim...rename that...
use PIM backup to backup your contacts, messages etc...
Ever used your SIM in another kind of phone ie Nokia?
Pal of mine had similar problem and it was due to his Nokia saving contacts to the SIM with group info added that is not compatible to other brands (non-standard).

yes, but all i do is that i remove my at&t sim, put in a t-mobile sim (for checking sms and stuff) and then put back the at&t again. then it shows up. with other phones (can't try other pda) there are no "unnamed" contacts.

This trick had worked for me too.
It actually deleted all SIM card contact that had been stored into the phone (device). The \pim.vol is in the root folder of the device. When you renamed it to \pim.vol1 and reset the phone, the phone will automatically create a new \pim.vol which is empty and therefore you are able to delete the \pim.vol1. It is impossible to delete the initial \pim.vol, so doggydog2 actually rename the file and ask the device to recreate another pim.vol.
Thanks a lot, doggydog2!
What if i backup contacts with "Unnamed" as well and after reset and deletion of file reimport backup file? Will i get "Unnamed" contacts again?

Hello, i just flashed the Touch IT 4.5. But im having problems with the startup screen align, the problem is that my screen is cracked and i cant do the align. Any way i can write some file, conectiong thought USB to my phone, or any other way to do the align?
Haven't tried it but maybe you should try mymobiler?
You probably have to edit the rom w/ the following (or maybe remove welcome.lnk in startup) to bypass the alignment (which I doubt Itje's rom is editable because of the nature of Bepe's kitchen)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Welcome]
"Disable"=dword:ffffffff

..... Read my reply carefully. U need to "edit the rom". In other words, you have to edit the rom before you flash. Since you can't get pass the initialization page, you have NO WAY to edit thru PC.
OK, well i managed to get thro the align by deleting the welcome.lng
But now the touch screen doesent work.
Im controling the Pocket PC thought the Desktop PC with a programm. But even with it i cant do the align.
Maybe theres some registri settings for the calibration points, or something?
U need to be able to use the touchscreen..
you should create a file "welcome.not" and put in to SD card (if its called Storage Card), or to the device root, that shall work. (and do a new hard/soft reset )
that must skip the align screen.

I have a same problem.Align screen was skipped when i put welcome.not in SD but screen doesn't work right.
how can i fix screen without align screen??
mymobiler doesn't connect to my phone too.
I'm trying to use my laptop to edit a file that's on my phone's storage. Every time I open the file, I am told that the files location is write-protected (so, read-only). I can move the file to my computer to edit it that way, but how would I remove this limit anyway?
Download to PC, edit, upload back to phone is what I do. Most times I edit them on the phone though. Pretty much my 10+ is my laptop.
That thrill never seems to get old.

Okay...so back to my question...
How would I remove the write protection so I can edit the file without having to copy the file around?

Root, ADB?
I don't think that's a normal functionality.
I have 2 work arounds so I don't concern myself with it as my phone spends very little time connected to the PC.
It's all and only backup time at this point.
