Hey guys im new and all to this site but I really need some help.
So I recently purchased the TD. But my question is, if it is possible to export my sms messages from my old HTC SPV C550 to my new TD? I've tried a lot of these smsbackup tools but none of them seem to work on my spv (never updated the rom on the spv nor wm upgrade).
thx in advance
how about PIM backup. I use it for SMS and it work. MMS doesn't however.
Also try using backup software in TD box to backup from old phone and restore in new phone. I don't know if it'll install thought.
Yeah i tried PIM PPCPimBackupV2.8_wm2003se.zip
but when i try to boot it on my spv, nothing happens i see it running in task manager though. :/ the TD isn't the problem, the problem is getting my messages of my spv.

Maybe its u using a wm2003 Prog.
on a smartphone? i think u need a sm edition (at least wm5/6)
I dont think that it works on ur TD, coz of the different paths etc.
SMS arent made to transport to another device.
And i heard, thats a bad Idea to recover a backup on a different
device or rom
So i think the badest thing u can do, its from a sm to a ppc

Folks lets try to get a listing of software that you may belive that causes problems with Molski's Rom. I think this will be benifical for newer users to be able to go to one place and see all of the software that we have experienced problems with so they do not have to.
If at all possible for every program that we list as a problem I would like to have an alternative.
From my experience.....
O2 sms plus (for mass sms messages) causes a problem with the native SMS software. It has been known to prevent you from reciving or send sms messages. I am currently hunting for another program but I have not had any luck.
Thanks to all the Chefs that keep us in some great ROMs, keep em comming!
I think we all know SPB time does not work...and man if you install it just go ahead and do a hard reset.
SPB time is one of my FAVORITES but if you want to keep the rom do not install it.
After installing my 8125 got so hung up I couldn't even do a hard reset...I had to reflash from bootloader.
pocketbreeze does the same thing

This is very strange I have been using this rom since it came out with out the autofill or the calender giving me any type of problem. What other software are you running?

Not running any other software, only what came default with Molski's ROM.
I hate when I need to Add recipient manually every time I start writing SMS's.
Second big issue for me is, that I cant get QWERTZ-keyboard to work with this ROM. I'm finnish, so I need to use scandinavian letters alot almost in every SMS.
My plans for year 2007 are open, so calendar aint so big deal - but i'm still using latest Active Sync and still cant get it to syncronize past meetings.
I encountered problems with clock and date resetting after every time while takeing out battery. Also device stops responding randomly after some time of working in standby mode and nothing except taking battery out is making it to soft reset. But the second problem might be caused by programs I'm using... Do you have similar problems?

Try going through the whole cid unlocking again and use the tmobile 2.26 rom then install Molski's rom again. Let me know what happens.

I have had this happen with the time and date going back to June 7th once I took the battery. I don't take the battery normaly so I just reset the time. Why is this a problem?
The system lockup is most likely software related, but what other software are you running. If possible I would try to reflash the Rom and install spb backup and backup after you install all the software that comes with the Rom that you use. Then install each additional software and due what you would normaly due when it locks up. If it works then backup again and so on and so on till you narrow the problem down.
This is what I do and it works for me but if there is an easier way that someone knows of please let us know.
This is the whole reason that I started this thread so we can learn from each others problems.
Hey guys I am new to the forum and I just did my first flash to my wizzard and I used this new 3.2 rom. I must say its amazing but I am having problems it keeps turning on by its self when I put it in suspend and the battery dies very fast and the phone book wont let me look up any names that start with V. Can you guys help me out with some advice?
For "Sun'n'moon" application, you can replace by "WeatherPanel" (www.marsware.net) very powerfull.
On my Wizard, 2 problems:
- Prssreader is not compatible with AKU3.2, when installed the phone boot crash.
Today, I don't have found better or equal rss reader software: --> please help me if you know better!!!!
- I don't like clock or date on my task bar, I want to remove it with "RegistryWizard" but when I choose "None" and restart, the sound and network icons are hidden by something: --> Can you help me too????
Molski's Rom is very fast when booting and is not too tunned! (good!!!). Thanks Molski for your work!!!
great rom so far only one minor prob.
1) no pRssReader. the today plugin causes a reboot. no big deal. must be badly written sw.

Can you take a screen shot so I can see what your talking about?
Its the weekend so I will be working in my nite life bussiness so give me a few days. to respond. Or see if someone else can help as well.

I've attached a copy of Qmail. It handles RSS feeds nicely. It will also handle email. Basically, its a Japanese version of Outlook Express. Good thing is that the program is written in English. But, there is NO documentation in English. You'll have to figure out how to make it work on your own.
There is not setup. Just unzip it and copy it to your storage card. Then just run the "q3u.exe" program.
Can not use slide-out keyboard for cyrillic characters
Guys,
The rom is great! Molski, Faria - thank you very much.
The biggest problem for me is that I can not type Cyrillic characters using the slide-out keyboard. The standard way to set it up (by setting \\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale) - does not work with this ROM.
Any suggestions would be very appreciated.
Hey man, It will not so bad.
Do you get back you backup by SPB Backup? The backuping programs sometimes damage devices GSM. Tray Hard reset and than it will be IMHO OK
I dont belive, that that ROM is such unusefull like you write.

You point the wrong way, I think it's more a cingular issue. I'm very glad with Molski's roms until now. They work perfectly fine overhere.

Howdy. I just want to make sure I read this correctly. So, you have T-Mobile (from your profile) and Molski's ROM 3.0.0.0 and you have not lost -any- calls/VM Notifications at all? I mean, it took me a few days to realize I was missing calls (when people started complaining at me thinking I was screening).
I am in Cingular, and if you are not missing calls (please, try to make sure as accurately as you can...) do report back, as this would be a huge pointer and there are quite a few of us stuck with this awesome ROM.
[btw: I LOVE this ROM and have no plans to go back... we all just need to figure this one out]
RE: the topic of this thread, this ROM seems 100% stable for me, battery usage and all. The actual thread for the radio/missed calls is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=287087
Voice Command 1.5
Cant say if it was directly related to the ROM, but Voice Command 1.5 would work for all but contacts and phone. If Contacts or Phone were enabled, VC 1.5 would fail to start.
Upgrade to VC 1.6 solved problem, and 1.6 is waaay better anyway.
Thanks, Molski for this ROM, I'm lovin it.

This is a compatability issue due to the fact that the Contacts Database was changed in AKU 3.x
Hi,
I have a Qtek 9090 and yesterday I upgrade it from wm2003 to wm5 at the beginning i have some problemas because when i start the contacts program it close inmediatly i use the no/yes/yes method to arrange it, but finally i upgrade to wm6 everything runs perfect but the contacts program have the same problem i had with wm5, i tried soft reset, hard reset, the no/yes/yes method and it doesn't run. I google on the forum but there are no answers to problems like mine.
What can i do?
Thanks for all and sorry for my english
PD: WM6 is awsome ^
try searching this forum for a diff contacts manager .
I had a problem and this sorted it .
Sorry cant remember the program .my xda has broke at moment so unable to look at it
PocketCM works quite well. Here you go.
Thanks, i used the contact manager in wm5 but in wm6 it is closed too, i tried photo contacts pro too, i can open it but when i want to add a contact (because the contacts list is empty) nothing happens. If i go back to wm5 it works fine. Could it be that the contacts ink is corrupt?
actually... i googled yours too
and you have a specific problem there.
tell us what WM and ROM version are you using then maybe
the cook/chef of that ROM can answer your question.
(4Ex. Xplode/Helmi/Et al.)
I am planning to upgrade my himalaya from wm6 to wm6.1.
I never done this before.
Will all my sms, outlook email, and contacts lost after the upgrade?
Do I need to backup all the sms and restore them again after upgrade?
and Install all the software/games all over again?
Thanks..
data will be gon
really
so backup
some programs on sd card may still work like all my games dont require anything but whats in their dirs so and they are on the sdcard so all i need to do is make new shortcuts to them
Yes you will looooose alll of ur data while upgrading the ROM
To Backup You PIM...use PIMBackup
AS for the software..remeber the names and search for them else post them here so we can help u find them
Happy WM 6.1 Flashing
Ok Thanks!
Flashing is fun and the old Hima is better as touch afterwards.

He is right works fine, no probs. Dare, and you will get a better performance with some progis eg SCLPC Cube as the original on my friends Touch.
Touchscreen sensivity is better and it is a lot larger than his. If you try to use it with ugly fat little fingers you really get the funktion you want instead of popping up everything what is nearby when your finger left the surface.
The best thing on all of it is: It´s all in here. Use the search buttons, (both of them) and if it seams as if it is not---ask and you get help, that´s for shure.
I believe,Himas are ifone killers. And thank you, to all those heroes, who make this possible and let it happen. I think, I´ve got a long list of names for donations.
BTW: It is nice to be importand --- but is is more importand to be nice.
Hi everybody
I have upgraded to the official HTC WM 6.1 ROM... and I did not like that much.
naturally I wanted to change to another ROM, so I opened PIM Backup 2.8, and tried to create a backup of my contacts and SMSs ...
the Problem is the is NO "NEXT" button...
I can't complete the backup process...
and I don't want to risk using ActiveSync... I had all my contacts deleted once because of it.
PIM backup works in restoring info.. but I can't get it to backup
I have been searching the forum for the last three days to find a solution...but digging in through 94 pages of the same topic gave me nothing but headaches
I might have missed something....if so... Please share with me...
thanks in advance
P.S: I found that the device became a bit unresponsive after restoring my contacts ans SMS using PIM backup on WM 6.1, does anybody have something like that?
I could be talking out of my **** (wouldn't be the first time ), but I seem to remember reading somewhere on the forum that you need to disable the Threaded SMS before running PIM backup - assuming you've left it "ON" which is the default for WM6.1?? You can use Schaps' Advanced Config to disable it.
PIM backup works on my WM6.1 ROM (Garmin.DK.3 - Threaded SMS turned off) - have you tried just ticking the Contacts and not the Messages to see if the Next button is enabled then??
Mark.
yeah, I have tried that before, and it did not work for me
I'll try search the registry and delete anything related to PIM Backup... then use it again...
BTW, I love your signature
I just updated my Tilt to 6.1 and found out after I did that the Sprint backup that comes with the Tilt has to be upgraded. I had to hard reset my phone and start over. You can get the newer version from HTC for free as an upgrade. The problem I had was with the Tilt saying my email accounts were locked and none of the fixes would work, but I read other post about other problems as well.
I'm using HyperDragon III pro ROM, and the problem is still there...
any ideas?

Have you posted on the PIMbackup thread (here) - if not, you could try that?? If you have, and you've got no (satisfactory) response, you could always email Fred - DotFred - via his website.
Not wishing to cast aspersions, but, have you gone down the RTFM route - the PIMbackup user guide is on www.dotfred.net if you haven't already got it.
One last thing.....you could check out the tutorial from @scotchua's signature (link here) - which suggest that PowerSMS may also work. There's a 14-day unrestricted trial on the website here.
That's me all out of ideas - hope this lot gets you where you wanna be

Hi all. I am about to install the official WM 6.1 upgrade on the Kaiser of my uncle. Since we don't want to lose contacts and messages, I was thinking of using Sprite Backup to restore them after the upgrade. The question is: will this work? I suppose it may not, since WM 6.1 may use a different format to store messages.
Please reply as fast as possible. Thanks!
EDIT: I have found PIM Backup in the FAQ, which should work. In any case can you confirm that?

I found that sprite back up, backs up everything,including system settings and 6.0 settings which are not compatible with 6.1. I found myself jumping through hoops to pick and choose info out of sprite back up to restore.
If it is just contacts and messages , I found that PIM backup was a much easier route to work with. It works great with the Kaiser.
Ok, I'm going to try with PIM Backup. Thanks!
Make sure to have the latest Sprite Backup version and use "Upgrade Mode" in the Sprite Backup 'Restore' options (see help file).

I have found out that my uncle had all contacts stored on the SIM card (aaaargh!) and just something like 15 SMSs (and none of them really important), no appointments on the calendar, no activities, no documents, and just a few notes and photos stored in the memory card, so actually there was almost nothing to back up. PIM backup was more than enough.
In any case thank you too.
And before someone tells me, yes, I know that this is like owning a Ferrari or a Rolls Royce and then driving only in the 1st gear.

Ha , I have had my Tilt for more than a year, it is sim/cid unlocked, running Hyperdragon III Raphael . I have games ,photos, videos, appointments , tasks , threaded sms and over 300 contacts, and I use PIM backup when I re flash because it is simply a good back up app. I have never lost anything.
I meant that owning a Kaiser and having no Outlook contacts, no documents, two 3rd party apps (TomTom - included - and Opera Mobile, installed by me) is like owning a Rolls Royce and driving in the 1st gear, not using PIM backup. For such an usage any 30 € LG phone is enough. Sorry for not being clear.

LOL, Owning a Rolls Royce to drive back and forth to the grocery. just means you have class and good taste. ( and maybe too much money )
Well he's not super-rich but I assume he had enough money for getting it without planning it months or years before. That's probably because he's married but with no children... And yes, in any case he has good taste.
