Activesync backup or use SPB backup? Those two i believe backup everything on your Universal. I never backup my contacts, everytime i do a ROM upgrade i see my contacts again, the only thing i dont see is the data! always erased.

Backing up, and restoring data from a previous ROM is usually a bad idea.

This will let you use SMS from your device in Outlook, and backup what's on the device.

problem about spirke backup,can anyone help!!!

hihi dear all:
i have a question about backup , i saw the ex-posts some expert use spirke backup for restore , but when i try it b4, after restore ,sms will malfunction(can't receive) , any solution??
i know is the problem of tmail.exe, but i can't fix it.
Best regards
I am actually having the same problem like this too.
I am thinking of hard reset my XDA II, but can anyone teach me how to save/back up my sms(inbox). Cos most of my sms are important for me. Please help!!
Thanks in Advance.
there is an app called jeyo mobile companion... it can be use to backup/restore sms, send sms via your pc and more....
Are you the latest version, sms problem should be fixed.
i try , thanks
Hi, run this after restore and soft reset.
What does it do?
If you're using Sprite Backup 2 then you MUST get version 3. Version 2 has a known problem where it screws up your SMS folders and you can't receive text messages.
CleanMail will clean your pocket outlook folders (erasing EVERYTHING) and get it back into a working state.
I strongly suggest getting version 3 of Sprite Backup as it doesn't have this problem.
I had this too, a week ago with sprite backup version3.1.1. Go to
http://www.spritesoftware.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=14
and look in "Announcement: STEPS TO FIX THE SMS PROBLEM"
They know the problem. I asked them yesterday if the problem was solved in their very new version 3.1.2 : but they didn't reply me yet I have just checked in their forum.

You did a restore after upgrading your XDA! You should do a hard reset and reinstall everything from the beggining! That happened with a friends PDA2k after upgrading it to the newer ROM and restoring his old backup! :wink:
This can also happen if you used Sprite Backup with a version less than 3.
I had this problem when I did a restore with Sprite Backup 2.
You can download this file which will restore your SMS folders back to working order. You will lose ALL your SMS messages but you will be able to receive them again.

Continuous "Loading TF3D" msg on Dutty and SwiftBlades latest ROMS

Hi Guys.
I am trying to upgrade from Elite 2.0 and i am haveing alot of trouble.
I tried teh SPL that was suggested in duttys thread but it got me nowhere so i put in the developers Unsigned SPL. And then it loaded quickly. Everything was fine untill i tried to restore my SMS, Emails, Calander and whatnot with Resco Backup. After I restored I went to view my sms's and it kept resetting TF3D.
I then decided I would try Swiftbaleds and I keep getting the same thing. I have been trying to do a Hard reset for 6the last 10 minutes but it isnt working...probably a big fail on my part...lol
Please help me fix this problem
please use PPCPIMBackup to backup and restore SMS, Emails, Calander instead.. i use that for many different ROM including SwiftBLs, no problem at all.
Am i able to some how use that to restore the files i backup with resco?

You can try to restore Contacts, Calendar, SMS/MMS and emails only. Don't restore any programs or system data and it might works. Cheerz...
well i managed to restore it but now i keep getting a services.exe error report msg and it wont go away....me and technology obviously dont mix...sigh

[Q] Restoring messages?

Hey,
Today at my first time, I Installed ROM and Kernal and Radio and all this essential crap.
Before I started, I went to HTC Sync software on my PC, and backed up all my files, Calender, People and thou..
But I guess I didn't notice that the SMS messages are not included on the backup list.
So now with my new ROM, when I synced back the files from the HTC Sync, it only bringed me back the Calender, People.. but not the messages,
Witch is pretty important for me, I had alot of important SMSs which I wish to restore.
When I installed the ROM I went through all the steps on the guide including the Wipe thing that I understood it is something backup?
Also I used the google's sync all the time,
Is there any option to get my SMSs from there?
Thank you very much,
Yarden.
As far as I know HTC Sync and Google Sync no backup messages.
You should have previously backup you messages with (for example) Titanium Backup.
If you haven`t Nanodroid Backup previous rom - you can`t restore you messages.
I don't love you..
oh crap. stupid ROM..
and what about the applications?
I see that they also gone,
Can they be restored?
No, apps can`t restore.
Before flash everything, I advise do backup all with TB, nanodroid backup and then flash all that you need.
These actions will help you keep all the data and, if anything, to restore everything as it was.
Good luck.

If you downloaded them through the marketplace they'll automatically download and install when you sign in with your google account on your phone.
sromer, titanium backup does not wipe messages. To backup messages use sms backup+ which is free. If you have a nandroid backup, restore that, backup messages and do your rom thing again.

SMS Backup & Restore would also be a good choice
MyBackup has successfully restored sms, mms etc. for me 10+ times now. definitely worth using. great program!
If you want constant backups I use gosms and only use it yo schedule backups every day at 6, then all is good, but I'm going to start backing up on every text I get

Flashing And Removing Data

Hi
Im looking at flashing a rom on my desire, if i flash it with a new rom will i lose all the internet history, missed calls list and txt messages ect. Can these be recovered after the flasing process?
I know that my memory card will be ok as i have backed that up?
Thanks
Matt
Hi topgunmatt,
If you don't back things up you will lose the data, when putting on a different ROM.
I have used SMSBackup that backs text messages up to your google account.
As far as internet history and missed calls etc I am not sure.
If you have root then you can use Titanium Backup which has a number of options for backing up apps etc. I am new to this myself but the 2 apps i have mentioned did work fine for me.
Hope this helps.
Thanks, i was just wondering that when you flash a rom to a desire and you havent backed anything up to
sd, ie just the internal phone memory could it be recovered?
Matt
Hi there I've only flashed roms a couple of times but Titanium backup can back up your contacts, sms, call logs. Not too sure about internet history as I'm not usually too concerned with it but your bookmarks will be backed up also.
If you're rooted I would recommend a nandroid backup by booting into recovery (handset off then volume down and power on, 'recovery', then 'backup and retore') just to be on the safe side. This will be a full backup of your phone at present and you can save a copy to your PC for safe keeping.

Totally agreed. Titanium Backup is the best choice if you are rooted (and i guess you are when flashing new rom )
And ALWAYS nandroid when trying out new roms, so you can go back easily.

+1. Titanium Backup is the best backup tool for root users.
