After 2 times of backup with the HTC accompanied Sprite Backup, I still got the same error report:
Backup completed successfully
Backup file : \Storage Card\Backup 261208_2008-12-26.exe
Start time : 26/12/08, 0:59:55
End time : 26/12/08, 1:04:56

Operation size : 92652 KB
Average speed : 321 KB/second
Warning : File could not be included \Windows\System\SQM\Sessions\Global
Warning : File could not be included \Windows\System\SQM\Sessions\PMWeek
What do these mean?
Any suggestions?
Can this backup still work???
I have tried SPB backup but it also got error.
Which backup program is better??
Resco??
I use SPB, I like SPB. That's more or less just a personal preference thing. Just so you know, everyone gets that error. There are certain files that change on a constant basis. Those files just happen to be the ones that the backup software can't copy due to the fact that they change ALL THE TIME. It's no big deal. When you restore your backup, everything will run perfectly. I do it all the time.
Do you mean that all backup programs also have similar issue?
Sprite backup has got problem in both my diamond and HD. I have tried to restore my diamond with sprite backup, but it resulted in a crash.
SPB works fine on diamond.
But SPB also got so form of error warning, I am not sure if SPB backup can restore perfectly.
Do your SPB backup also have so form of error warning upon completion of backup??
I use PIMbackup and has never failed me
from my TyTN to Touch Dual and from that to the HD all worked great!
Yes & Yes. Personally, I think that it's a glitch with SPB Backup. I get the error at the end also, but when I restore everything works fine. Don't really understand what it means but I do know that everything will work just fine. I got to the point where I just ignore the error message. I used to use PIM but it can't back up everything that I want backed up. The best advice I can give you..................Try different stuff if you don't like what SPB or PIM does. Find what works for you! Good luck

Hi,
Sams problems, but restor is Ok...
That originates of a configaration in a RGU, in the RGU of the SYS SQM
NOT:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\SQM\Sessions\PMWeek]
"MaxSize"=dword:FA0
"Timeout"=dword:93A80 ; one week in milliseconds
"Persistent"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\SQM\Sessions\Global]
"MaxSize"=dword:5000
"Timeout"=dword:15180
"Persistent"=dword:1
"Flush"=dword:1
"SessionCount"=dword:0
Solution
If the warning message is bothering you, I would recommend adding them to exclusion rules.
To do this, please follow these steps;
a) Open Sprite Backup on the device
b) Go into Options> Backup> Rules
c) Tap the "+"
d) In the text box put exemple "\Windows\System\SQM\Sessions\Global", leaving the rule as "Custom"
e) Tap "OK"
After this, repeat steps c) - e) for \Windows\System\SQM\Sessions\PMWeek
Within the german delivery of the Touch HD there is no SpriteBackupTool available.
Where can i get it?
There is also no reference on the HTC Homepage and CustomerService does not answer my question?!?!
Greetings, Oliver
For SPB backup, the error warnings are different.
2008-12-28 00:01:21 Unable to read from file "\Windows\UC2SJIS.TAB".
2008-12-28 00:01:34 Unable to read from file "\Windows\SJIS2UC.TAB".
What do these mean?
Can I exclude them in my backup option too like sprite backup??
Both SPB Backup & Sprite Backup also give error message
Wish newer version could solve the problem
Sprite Backup error message
Hi!
I keep getting this when Sprite Backup V6.5.4 Build 2 is done:
Error : Couldn't backup \Minneskort\MSMETADATA\XMEMediaLibrary.mlb
Warning : File could not be included \Minneskort\MSMETADATA\XMEMediaLibrary.mlbc
Where Minneskort is my SD Card.
It seems to me that restoring this is ok but what the heck is wrong?
What are thoose libs doing?

I came across several solutions. All of them install on the desktop and on the movile device but is there any single .exe file solution that I can put on the SD card and run from there without any installation needed? Something like the GHOST.EXE DOS utility from Norton Ghost which makes a binary image of the partition that can be restored later...
EDIT...
or another solution that i would think would be perfect is... starting the bootloader, and use a desktop pc tool, to leech an image of the mobile device... or to replace the rom with an earlier made backup image...
Sprite Back up allows you to create a self installing back up - well worth it, the HTC Artemis came with this program as part of the package, it is available for purchase - Mike
Ref: Easy backing up utility.....
I personally use SPB backup - has worked 100% EVERYTIME and it will let me either make a complete backup or just the info ie contacts & emails if I want !!!
Hope that helps ...
peace

thank you for your suggestions, i tested both already. as a third alternative there is the sunnysoft backup manager, it creates selfinstalling exe files as well.but the backups are bigger than e.g. sprite
sprite backup can do selfextracting backups to, look in the options (and switch to the advanced mode before)
Hi all, Did anyone try to restore the diamond with Spb backup 2.0 with the "rom upgrade" function? I've update my diamond from hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.34.831.1_52.24.25.08_0.93.25_Ship to hTC_Asia_WWE_1.37.707.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26a.25.09_1.00.25.03_Ship
But after I restore with spb, it's success but when I check the rom version in setting, everythings is upgrade but only the rom version is still 1.34.831.1, but the cht is change to wwe.
Did I just ignore it (coz I'm sure I'm successful upgrade b4 I restore the backup file)? Or my backup file restore everything??
Pls help I'm really no ideas..... Thank you so much!
any ideas?

You should not restore all the system data from your backup files as it will "overwrite" the system files in your upgraded rom and that is what it is happening and shows in your device info. You should only restore your PIM data, i.e. contacts, emails, messages, appts after an upgrade. You are lucky that the device is not corrupted and functioning OK.
To resolve this, do a hard reset to get back to your upgraded rom 1.37.7.0.1 (yes, it is still lying there in your device) and this time do a PIM restore only and everything will be fine! Cheers
Thanks and I know that..... just want to be lazy to to one step to restore all information and program, although I've choose the "rom upgrade" to restore, but still cannot make it. Only retore all the pim information and have to install all back about the program....
Anyway, thanks a lot!
so = it is not possible to restore all programs after rom upgrade at all??
I think so...... but did anyone try another backup program? like resco backup and also sprite backup? I remember those software have the rom upgrade things to choose, anyone tried?
mmm on Spb site there is
Control your data restoration!
* Can be restored after ROM upgrade (ROM upgrade mode)
* Can be restored on another device (device upgrade mode)
* Self-extracting executable backup files
* Selectable items to restore
* Separate text message (SMS) restoring
* The backup file can be explored with the desktop unpack tool

it could be very interesting restoring apps after upgrades...
Well, I've tried SPB Backup 2.0 ROM upgrade mode a few times (approx 4 times). I had no issues with that and I did not loose any information. Although I haven't checked version information like you. I've always forced ROM upgrade mode in options.
I can say that for quick testing new ROMs this method is a big help. But based on the advices of the experts you should build up your new environment from scratch if you decided which ROM to live along with. Cheers.
yes~ did run normally if restore with rom upgrade mode! but seems it's restore all back from the old file coz the rom details didn't change..... after hard reset then show back the new rom version. I guess it just restore all back from old rom I guess....
i've settled on using spb backup 2 for the PIM info (also restores photo contacts to TF3D), and Sashimi for programs/preferences... works pretty well and fast
what is "sashimi"?
SASHIMI is an app that can do automated installs of cab files, .reg files, and a whole bunch of other stuff to get your device back how you want it after a flash.
you can find the thread here
SASHIMI 6.5beta is out and I am interested in feedback from Diamond users.
I believe that the Auto Install to Storage Card will now work with Internal Storage.
I need Diamond users to test and confirm.
Post in the SASHIMI thread with any issues:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2476481&postcount=382
I recently used SPB to do a "full backup" but it only took 5minutes and the resulting backup file was only 41.7MB...my internal memory has 160MB in use so was this a complete backup and does it usually be this quick? The compression level is set to normal.
I previously used Sprite backup but when I recently wanted to restore it and clicked on the self-restoring file it said "The file cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file"...?
I even tried opening it and my previous 2 backups via opening up sprite -> restore, however it did not find the backup files? Anyone else had this problem.
Lastly, is it best to backup my storage card at the time of the backup? Just that if I ever need to do a hard reset and then restore, won't my system need the files on my storage card to be as they were at the time of my backup? (I have many programs installed on there)
Thanks for your thoughts
Make sure in settings you have the backup choosing the correct files.
I don't backup my storage card simply because it'll save it back on the card.
I can't speak about Spb on the HD but I had problems with it on my Diamond so I switched to Sprite and have no issues.

Hello guys,
Me & my girlfriend both using (O2 Ignito) Diamond, and somehow she is messing-up the device every month and I have to hard-reset her device and spend a whole 3 continous hours on installing and configuring her Diamond.
Can someone PLEASE Tell me / Guide me how can I make a "COMPLETE backup (including StorageCard software installaions and Registry)" of her device after installing everyyyyyything, and then every month just run the automated restore process.
1. Keep it in mind that during the configuration & installation I am also editing few bits in the registry for example changing the AC_S2U2 setting etc., I want all of the registry to backed-up as well.
2. I am also installing some big softwares on the StorageCard e.g. SPB Online which is 12mb, so I have to include that in the backup as well.
3. Her Diamond's ROM is the Original O2 Stock Rom (1.93)
I would highly appreciate someone's expert advice.
Regards
Sidd

I would suggest to buy Resco Backup. This peace of software can make a full backup, and if restored to the same ROM as the backup was made, will preserve all settings. Just keep in mind that with a restore you have to check the option Full Restore.
Thanks henk2484,
I will give it a try for this month's restore.

I use SPB Back up 2.0 with no problems.
I create one backup called a clean install after a hard reset with all programs loaded and settings adjusted, and then a back up every month to make sure I save emails and texts etc.

SPB Backup can also be configured to make automatic backups of everything (PIM Data, Emails, My Documents, System Data, Storage Card) or whatever part(s) you choose. You can enable it to run at specified day(s) and time.
What's nice is, it can restore even to a different ROM and/or on a different device, and it creates the backups as .exe file, so you don't have to reinstall the program just to restore. It will do everything.
What works for me: I make manual "Full" backups whenever I install new software. (This takes about 3-4 minutes.) Other than that, every night at 3 o'clock, it automatically makes a backup of my documents, e-mails, and sms. If something bad happens, I hard-reset, restore that big full backup, and restore the latest small "document" backup, everything works out.
Definitely recommended!
Thankyou soo much guys, thats a huge amount of advices, I will definitely try some of these and see which one better.

Hello All...
I've searched high and low, googled till my finger tips are worn. I did a complete backup of my At&t tilt using the included sprite backup software, after clearing the storage and reinstalling WM6.1 I attempted to restore "email" and "pim" via my backup. Roughly 2 hours passed till the restore finished, but when I attempted to access my messages the message folder will not open. I tried restoring the complete backup and that didn't work (still no messages), I tried everything seen here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529023. I cannot seem to get my messages back even though the cemail.vol file is intact. Is there anything I can do? I need help!
P.S. - when I try to do a backup using PIMBackup 2.8 after restoring everything via sprite, PIMBackup tells me that no messages were found.
i bet ur smss r gone, u should have used pimbackup in the first place.
anyway, look at the bright side... u r on a clean start now!! and really, whats the purpose of storing smss several days/weeks/months old?
