No Data lost, i lost only account in messanger list. All data i recive on my notebook, but after replase the battery each time i need make new mail account. Hard reboot and reinstall all programs every time or full backup every time - not a good solving.

No one help me yet
If you find some solution - say me please
i have a same problem. does any one sole it???
Ditto
My today screen now has 8 accounts on it all showing unread messages although i can only open one of them. I don't know how to get rid of them besides a hard rest which i dont want to do.
Surely there must be some solution as I will run out or screen if it happens any more
Hi,
Had exactly the same issue.
The problem for me was restoring the backup file created by Sprite.
I resolved my issue by not restoring the messaging dB's - and everything was OK - The reverse is make a backup but not the messaging dB's then restore.
Hope this helps somewhat.

Hi After doing some googling I found a tool that might help for some people but it didnt for me. someone else might ba able to shed some light
1) use the DBViewSP editor to go to cemail.vol
2) under that go to 'pmailNamedProps' and select it to edit the values
3) scroll down to the very last 2 values, which should be called 'UnreadCou...'
4) delete them
5) restart
Please if you do do this make a backup of your .vol file 'just in case'!

Made a stupid mistake and deleted the contacts shortcut in my startup folder. I then loaded softkeys! I now have no way of going back to my contacts on the right softkey. I have looked throughout my windows folder for the pcontacts and I can't find it. I love Black 2.0 and won't go back! Don't want to have to reset for this stupid mistake. Can someone help or post their contacts shortcut here. Thanks!

You can create the link yourself with...
:MSCONTACTS?outres.dll,-10000
and then put the shortcut in any place.
Thanks for the reply....I am still in the dark about your answer....do you mean to place this in the registry or somewhere else. I hate to sound like such a noob.
I got it....thanks for the help! You guys are awesome
Contacts won't open!!
I recently upgraded to Black pro 2.0. I love it! However, I used spb backup 1.5.5 to backup my pim info (mainly contacts). Now, when I restore my pim I can no longer open contacts. I tried using the softkey, tried openning it using the phone utility. I tried going back to 2.11 ROM... but the problem persists. I even tried to use other backup programs but still come across the same problem. Other programs that use the contacts database (like Vbirthday) can't access the contacts either. I have Agendus installed and when I go to the contacts in the Agendus menu all my contacts are there, so I think this is a problem in the shell or maybe a registry fix would do the trick... I don't know. I appreciate any help.

Id strongly advise NOT to use spb backup....there are such differences in the new Black ROM that restoring a backup can cause allsorts of problems.
The BEST thing you can do is to get yourself signed up for an exchange account somewhere like mail2web....you get push email but more importantly for you the contacts are synced......so even after a hard reset all it takes is a quick sync and your contacts/calendar/tasks and emails are back in the device.

Thanks for the reply! But I was actually hoping for a way to restore my contacts from my storage card, since I have over 300 contacts it would take me too long to type it all back again. There must be a way to fix this problem. Well... I'll keep trying to find an answer; thanks anyway.

Take the plunge dude once your info is in exchange it is automatically updated if you add or remove a contact etc.....SUCH A SERIOUS TIMESAVER.
and doesnt rely on SD cards or anything else.

Can you export with Agendus and then HR and import?
I'm saying cause seems that restore with SPB Backup dosn't work with contacts in the way it must to do. I try to use in the past, and finally take all my critical information to an exchange server activesync.

Before I upgraded to Black Pro 2.0, SPB backup would work fine even with contacts. I never had any problems with WM5 1.35 ROM. What do you mean by HR? (sorry if this is a stupid question).

HR = Hard Reset
when you say you never had any problem, means that you tested to restore the same backaup before, and this same backup now in Black 2.0 dosn't work?
Or you are trying to restore diferents backups?

Same backup. Won't work in Black 2.0. I did what you suggested (exported a contact from Agendus to my storage card in csv format), HR but can't (don't kknow how to) import it neither with contact nor with Agendus.
Maybe I should just downgrade to WM5 1.35 again. Could anyone tell me how? I tried running the upgrading utility for 1.35 ROM but it doesn't recognize the usb connection. I thought it might be a problem with the SPL 1.40 Olipro and changed to 1.10 Oli... still the same problem. I tried changing it to 1.10 MGF but mtty won't recognize the usb connection either. It's not a problem with my usb port because everything else works fine, including the phone syncronization. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks mrvanx! I'll try it later. But first, one last attempt to solve the problem... maybe the culprit is not Black 2.0 but radio 1.38.

I was wondering why people advise an exchange account instead of simply syncing with outlook. I use outlook to sync contacts and appointments and it works well as a backup... After my Black VI upgrade simply connect and sync. So am i missing something ?

I think you can Import your exported CSV into Outlook, and then sync with TyTN trought ActiveSync.

There are same advantages doing with exchange (like i see):
First of all, you can sync in any place, trought GPRS or 3G, so you dosn't need be connected to your PC to restore your information.
Second, the servers normally has their backup policy, so your information is more secure.
Thirt, every time you change one elemment in contacts or calendar, this change sync on the fly to server, so your information is the same in server and in ppc everytime.
After three years of use, this is the most secure method i find to take this information secure and avaylable.

Thanks for the tips. I went back to WM5 1.35, restored my info with SPB backup and it worked. So I syncronized with Outlook, went back to Black 2.0 and syncronized again... contacts and tasks back to my device and working fine. Now I'll see about this exchange mail. By the way... which is the best one? P.S.: could this problem I had be something of interest to Jasjamming? Since Black is his ROM and had some compatibility issues with various backup programs... maybe he would like to have a look at it. Thanks again.
Hey guys,
im having a weird issue with my desire....
i have 336 contacts on my phone, in which i had transferred from my previous device... i realize for google to sync my contacts i need to create a csv file, or export the contacts from my phone to sd, and then load the file in gmail for the contacts to show up.
my problem is this....
i can SEE the contacts in the people application, but when i hit menu and "view" it doesnt show anything in parenthesis.. for example
it would say :
Sim contacts (1)
Gmail contacts (0)
Phone contacts (0)
although i have 336 contacts in which i can see in the people view.
is this a known issue? i just want to create a backup and load it to my gmail account in case i lose my phone i dont want to lose my contacts.
Any help would be GREAT!
my phone is NOT rooted, im running 2.1
no one else having this issue???
Im a noob at this so not sure if this is correct but this is what i did to put all my contacts on gmail
imported all contacts onto sd
transfered from sd to pc
transfered from pc to gmail
so i have now 3 backups for my contacts, just incase
again not sure if this is your answer or the correct way but enough saves not to lose them
Need recommendations for a good app that can back up my contacts including the FB link information so that I dont have to manually relink everything after every reflash

Why don't you export the contacts to the SD card en re-import them after a flash?
I have kicked FB completely off my phone as the FB sync uses up battery.
What I now do is sync my gmail contacts (in windows) with my FB. After the first sync the most important information is then permanentely added to gcontacts.
Of cource you don't get the message history of such through this method, but purely for personal data this is a good option in my opinion.

Ive imported the vcf file trying to restore it im stuck at "searching for vCard on SD card" for ages with 100% cpu usage on the acore process.
Anyone ?

you need no app.
you need to match their facebook names to gmail contacts mail. it will sync even if youll wipe.

as eliazu said above, you can use the stock contact app to export all your contacts to SD
when you import them back, they will be linked with the facebook info
alternatively, if you are flashing the same major release, most of the times you can get away by using titanium and backing up CONTACTS STOGRAGE (it is green) and then restoring it data only.
Hope this helps!
