You can do the same thing on the device itself. Launch sprite back up and select options then restore. You have the same choices as above. once you make that change you can launch the actual restore either from your pc or your phone. |

okay I did the upgrade using Sprite Backup 6.1
Backedup my PPC using Sprite Backup Upgraded to 2.17 ROM Allowed the Rom upgrade complete also the Sprint customization Started the backup file from storage car of PPC after the restore and restart Here is what happened: Restore completed, I looked at the report.. couple files could not be restored. -My contacts , Calendar & tasks were gone. (I have a backup of contacts and calendar on computer of course) -My old txt msgs were gone -My MMS configuration is gone I have to reinstall that -SPB Mobile Shell software lost its setting of speed dial contacts - Call history & Speed Dial are gone - The theme was changed to sprint theme (changing it back was easy) - Voice command and most of my programs are working properly so far - The first time you try to connect to internet on your phone, the phone will update your vision session IOTA. - Your first ActiveSync session after upgrade will take for ever and I only have like 350 contacts. -WORSE THING IS: your ROM version will still say 2.09 but the Rom Date is Nov 18, 2007 Radio 1.47 So at this point I am not sure if the Rom update was messed up by the restore totally or is it just file version number... I guess I will know when I try the BT |

Thats pretty odd. Did you choose the rom upgrade in the options? What happened to you sounds like what happened to me when i first used SBP and upgraded to 2.16. It completed with errors but nothing worked right thats when i discovered you were not supposed to use sbp after rom updates as it will overwrite some files that have been upgraded. I downgraded my mogul used sbp to restore it back on 2.09 downloaded sprite and did it all over and have had no problems at all. Just make sure from the options menu and the upgrade mode you choose ROM not device. I guess you could try safe too. Mostly I just didnt want to reinstall my software. I didnt care about txts but i think they were preserved as well.

Using a backup app to restore the registry after upgrading your ROM will not work reliably. No backup program will ever resolve this issue, as it is a technical impossibility. The best you can hope for is a partial restore that only restores apps that make trivial registry changes.
When you upgrade your ROM, do the smart thing - reinstall your apps.
