Hello!
I have a problem and i hope you guys could help me out!!
Well my pda2k hard reseted by it's self! I I tried out backing up some data from Permanet memory like contacts and stuff its ok , but it restores contacts i dont want to !!
Now after reseting again so i get a clean installation of all i synch with my pc and i get what i want on my phone , BUT when i try to save my contacts again in Permanent memory it Restores all of my old stuff!!
My question is : Is there a way to clean Permanent Memory??

Wiping permanent memory
You mean how to do a one time bit-by-bit clean wipe of the built in storage?
You can use our encrypter's file shredding feature:

Hi,
Need some help..
Can any body let me know how I can save SMS's permanentlly as after a hard reset they are gone.
So if there are some files on which in which SMS’s are saved I can make a backup of that files and replace them after a hard reset..
Please if anyone has anything on this matter then please let me know....
Hi Perci,
I have had this problem before. the only solution I found ut was to take regular incremental back ups , so in case of a hard reset u can always restore most of your data. Thats the practice I follow.
But wonder if nay one else has a better solution on storing / backing up the specific data like sms ONLY.. thats would be great..
Have u got any idea on how to transfer SMS data from a Palm O/S to XDA II ?
Regards,
Hi.
I use Jeyo Outlook extender. It saves your sms in a folder in Outlook, just like e-mail. Very easy to use.
SMS backup
If you are using XDAII, this this program can let you save your contact and SMS in a file and later when you run this program to restore the data. I usually backup these data in my storage area and restore it therefrom.
However, this is Chinese version (do you know whether you can understand Chinese), and it works only for XDAII - I tried this for my IIs, does not work.
thanks for the software
thanks for thwe software
but as it is in chinese I cannot understand a thing....
if you could please put the screen shots here with english explanation it will be of great help
if possible please provide the chinese font also..
thanks.

I've got an Imate JAM,
which is the samller version of the pda2k with 128mb of memory,
i had some software problems and the local supplier said its a known problem in this software verson. so they took it to upgrade it.
after upgrading, the telephone worked, however,(here is the problem)
i tried to restore my old data: contacts, emails, txt msgs, ...etc.
after restoring the pointer (touch screen) didnt work! i tried every thing that came into my mind ... restarting, soft reset , ... and nothing worked.
the only solotion was to do a hard reset. the device worked perfectly after doing the hard reset but i dont have my data !
i took it back to the agent who simply said: we're sorry you are not the first one... but you cannot restore your old data after upgrading!!! :evil: !!
- a friend advised to post the issue into this website (CUZ THEY'RE REALLY GOOD) :wink: he said!.. i really wish i could find a solution to my problem.. i need to restor my old data .
thanx.
best regards,

I have exactly same problem!
I think the problem lies here:
You can only make FULL backups and that SUCKS, it backups WAY to much.. also a lot of windows dll's and putting those back ****s it all up I think..
We need a soft that can modify the backup.stg to extract the contacts/sms etc seperatly from the backup file and then import it to phone.. or maybe easier to import to outlook and then synchronize your phone..
For everybody who want to upgrade; synchronize your agenda + contacts with outlook.. then you have a good and valid backup!!
If you can import your contacts, then your screen won't react (only if you press REALLY hard) but you can synchronize and then do hard reset, and then after that synchronize again...
In my case I could not even get my contacts back.. it gave an error overwriting files :S
WBR
Whenever I compose and not able to send the SMS and click the OK button it disapear, in normal condition it shoul be saved in the Draft folder.
Although it is visible in the counter when I open the draf folder there is nothing in it.
I already perform a soft reset and try to boot in safe mode to check if there is a conflict with the application installed at my phone but nothing works.
I have tried to explore the folder windows/messaging to check if the Draft SMS is physically saved in the device and I think it is there (by checking the date and time of the file is created).
I need some advise on how can I solve this problem withou performing a hard reset, because rigth now I'm just manually deleting files at windows/messaging to save storage space.
I know harset will definetlt solve this but I dont want to perform a hard reset since I dont have a PC to configure my XDA back ang installed my favorite applications
You might need to hard reset...to solve this problem...
Avoiding Hard reset
I know Hard reset will definetly resolve my problem but will introduce more because I dont have a PC to doit as for now. I'm just currently renting one a internet cafe
wow is going to be dificult if you don't have computer..
Withou a Computer
Yah, I know it is difficult, although rigth now my hand are itchi to hard reset my phone I'm trying hard not to because I will not be able to use my favorite apps ang games. If I just have an admin priveledge with this PC that I am using I will not have any second thought to performe a hard reset.
That is why I posted my problem here, for my hope there there is somebody that could help me.
In addition I have Resco explorer install witha registry editor plugin, so incase i need to check or edit any file or registry I can.
You can try backup with Sprite Backup or Spb Backup. Hard Reset then restore everything except e-mail/messaging.

If you haven't already, I'd suggest you stop using your sd card immediately. As you might know, the more you use your memory card now, there'll be a higher chance for your phone to overwrite the data/memory slots you are trying to recover.
You mentioned, you backed up your data before but ended up deleting it after a successful install. Was this folder in your extSd card? If yes, then this should be the main focus for your retrieval process. Which recovery software (the pc app) did you use to try to recover your files?
I would strongly recommend using EaseUS Data Recovery. I have personally used this software on more than a few occasions, and it was able to successfully recover formatted, deleted and to some extent overwritten data contents. I am asking you to consider this software because while recovering my recently lost data, I was able to recover files that I had deleted over two month ago and should have been lost for good.
EaseUS website - http://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizard/
If you do decide to give this software a try, during the wizard, select Complete Recovery option instead of Deleted Files Recovery. Complete Recovery option will scan your entire partition and show you everything it can recover from images, videos to random data files.
And no matter which software you end up using, expect certain corrupted data depending on how much memory spots have been overwritten since you deleted your backup.
For the future, I would recommend Super Backup Pro - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idea.backup.smscontacts
If you give it a try, you'll see it offers an easy but comprehensive backup methods.
Hope you get your contacts back
EDIT : Forgot to mention, as far as I remember, the free version had only a limitation of 2GB data recovery I think, but you just need your backup so you should be good
Thanks alot..downloading now...will let u know soon

Back up help
If your looking for a simple enough back up solution, I would check out one drive. Free account has 15GB of cloud storage. I think you get bonus storage for installing it on your android and PC. I am a fan but always handy to have an EXTERNAL SD to dump your pictures on automatically. They are cheap enough and can live on your phone(ish) forever.
My two centers, I am sure someone else may have conflicting pennies to share as well. Enjoy!
If youre really in the need to back stuf up kies 3 is a pretty good one. It backs up everything from messages to pictures and even the applications you have installed. Its npt everyones favorite but it is an option
