If you are using TouchFlo3d and want to save your favorite contacts that information is stored in the pim.vol file located in your root directory, just back that up. pim.vol also contains all of your contacts! No need to use pim backup app unless you want to save all ur txt messages, recent calls list, etc.

I have tried backing up the pim.vol and letting SASHIMI "Auto" restore but this doesn't seem to work for me. The only way I have found to restore this is to use the Backup PIM feature located in the Tools>Additional Tools section of SASHIMI. This method required that I restore the PIM using the PIM Restore located in Tools>Additional Tools and then it tells you that after the restore to do a reset and then delete the file \PIM.DELETEME.

It works, but I have yet to find a way to "Auto"mate in SASHIMI...

Been looking for a better solution!!! No luck!!!

in total commander

the directory "\" is the root folder

you should see many folders like My Docs, storage card, temp , windows in "\"

right below the last folder you should see pim.vol

i'm using 8.0 sashimi, but i couldn't get it to work.

do i need to make a Temp folder or sashimi automatically does that?
and then when you edit the mscr file to SASHIMI.lnk do you do that using a desktop or on the phone directly?

go to total commander then go to the directory 2577 click the d pad down to autorun.mscr then click file (at the bottom left corner of the app) and the >>>>>> click create shortcut save the shortcut in the 2577 directory. Use the D pad click down to the autorun.lnk and rename it sashimi.lnk

Move or copy it to sashimi\auto\root that should do it but it doesn't work for me but your mileage may very I'm using an exchange setup.

I did that but it is definitely not working for me either nor did the weather.

Stocks tab worked, but I dot want to re-add these every flash, anyone find a working solution?
