I have just updated my BlueAngel to WM5 but wish to copy my contacts across. I have backed up via xbackup within Pocket PC 2003.
But noticed there is no xBackup within WM5
Also just wanting to know if there is a more modem Bluetooth Software for this WM5.
Another thing is I noticed that I don't have ExtROM Version: (nothing). Is this correct?
Regards
Scott
When you install wm2005 you format you EXTROM because you no longer need it. And xBackup isnt for WM2005 but there is this program I uploaded on zevink.com called "SunnySoft Backup" in downloads/useful apps, skim through and download it, it lets you backup your system in WM2005!
Will "SunnySoft Backup" allow you to restore "Contacts" back from xBackup?
Look at this... If you want to backup your Contacts, Appointments and Task try this link
http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=48&Itemid=41
And if you want to backup your sms try "dopod SMS Backup or SunnySoft Backup Manager"
SunnySoft will get everything but contacts, calander, tasks, and stuff in that nature, it gets your registery, your applications, your data, your files etc.

Hi guys,
I am urgently seeking a help.
After upgrading/flashing to PDAMobiz_Dopod_P800W_AKU301_v1.1.2_PowerMap ROM, I am unable to restore PIM (contacts and calendar) information. I use Spb Backup for backing up. Though I was able to restore E-Mail (e-mail + SMS) from the same file. If I try to restore PIM info, I get some db error message and on top of that even cellular network is unavailable.
It seems that there is some difference in db structure for AKU 3.0 and 3.0.1 featured in the above ROM. I did though try to launch the file on my older WM2k3SE device but with no luck.
The issue is that I do not even have all the contacts and calendar on my Outlook (on the desktop), and as you can guess I am sitting empty with hundreds on contacts and calendar items lying in the backup file.
1. Is there anyone here to whom I can send the backup .exe file (created using Spb Backup app), so that he can launch it on his Artemis and then sync with clean Outlook and then export 2 files in .pst format (one for contacts and the other for calendar)
2. Or is there any other way to recover this information from the backup file that I have.
Someones assistance is required, as I am stuck. I will be highly thankful for any help.
The problem has been resolved thanks to user RAMBO29 here.
Well, few other gave me some tips as well .... tnx to them, too.
Hi everyone,
I tried to overwrite WM6 pim.vol with my previous WM5 pim.vol to keep all PIM data. But then I couldn't open my Contact list anymore. New SMSs also don't match phone record anymore.
I tried not to overwrite pim.vol file but used Spb Backup instead, no luck
Anyone experience the same problem?
same boat
i tried the same thing ended up renameing the pim to something random and reseting so the phone restores the blank pim then resynced lost pics and ring tone associations but at least it works. i am goin gto keep loooking for some way to get it working.
WM6 is pretty sweet so far
The pim.vol of WM6 is slightly different from the pim.vol of WM5.
has anyone tried to restore WM5 data to WM6 using Sprite Backup (Backup software bundled with dopod D810). I'm just hoping restore my contact, connection setting and messages I assume you can't restore installed software. If this is not possible does anyone know how to transfer contact, connection setting and messaging information to WM6?
Thanks for any info
anybody has any info on restoring data from WM5 to WM6?
when going from one ROM to another ROM, i will NEVER restore from a backup. i made the mistake one time and will never do it again. in my opinion, it's best to start from scratch and reinstall 3rd party apps.
Hi All
I Have Problem With Pim Backup
I Flashed My Rom Black Satin And When I Wanted To Restore My Contact Pim Backup Doesnt Recognized My Backup File And When I Open Pim Backup To Find The Restore File Nothing Appers Concerning The File Of Backup
Plz Can Anyone Help Me I Will Be Very Greatfull
Thanks A Lot In Advance
I had a different problem. After restoration I found only few SMS messages! Luckily, the contacts were all there.
p.s. Check your backup settings before execution; also check the size of the backup file to get an indication if it contains anything.
Good Luck.

Try to recover SMS only - that should put all of your SMS back - PIM Backup author said that in his thread.
Thanks KarhU,
I tried, alas; it did not work (197 records found in file... 0 message inserted in database...)

Otherwise, thanks for the great program.
This is indeed a bug, that has been fixed, but not yet released. Fortunately, there is a workaround for this problem with the actual version of pim backup.
The only thing to do during the restore of messages, is selecting only one account and do the restore.
So, for instance, if you want to restore your SMS, just select Text messages account and no other one and do the restore. If nothing is restored on the device it means that the account doesn't exist and should be created first.
I hope it helps...
Cheers,
Fred
This is the original message from dotfred, problem resembles that one of yours. Also the new version is available at his site. The message error should be fixed according to the changelog.

Are you using the same version of PimBackup...? I have had this problem only when using a different release... drove me nuts for about a week... I used v2.2 (I think) and then used v2.5 to restore and this is what I faced... used the earlier release and everything was fine.. Then used v2.5 to create a new backup and haven't had any probs since...
Thanks A Lot For Your Interest
Yes I Used The Sa%e Version Of Pim Nackup For Backup And Restore
But Nothing Found
When I Look In The File Conataining The Backup File With File Explorer It Appears But When I Want To Browse It With Pim Backup Nothing Appears
I Tried A New Backup And Change The Name Of The New With The Oldest But The Extension Is Still Unrecognized
Plz Help Me
Thanks A Lot For You
Thanks for the link KarhU.
In spite of using 2.5 to backup, using 2.6 to restore fixed it. I hope it will work for SETOUF.

If you encrypted the card and THEN flashed a new ROM you can not decrypt the file (because encryption keys are stored in main memory and get overwritten/deleted by the flash - and you should not be able to decrypt any other data on the card rendering them effectively lost). If you encrypted the card after flash you can try to decrypt it in the settings. If you sync your device with outlook you can get your contacts back. Otherwise there is nothing else on my mind. Sorry.
Thanks A Lot
Anyway Do You Know How To Crack An Aes128 Encryption ?
Brute force attack. Fast computer and tons of time (weeks to years depending on the passwork/key lenght). Do you have older backup, or backup on the desktop PC, or did you synchronize it with desktop outlook - that can get at least a part of your data back.
