Re: Help with WM5.0/WM6.1 Contacts (pim.vol)

Yeah I've been googling how to possible convert the pim file into something (excel, etc), to no avail as well. Everyone is saying to flash back and reload it.

The 3.3 AKU I loaded was from HTC's website.

And yeah, I'm renaming the pim.vol on the phone to pimx.vol and then copying MY personal pim.vol into the root directory, soft reset. I've tried pimbackup (after the fact), and it seems to backup fine, but when I try to restore I hit an error.

I opened the file in notepad and auto-replaced all the symbols & characters with nothing so it's not looking so bad now. It'll take me a while to put them back in my phone, but I'm not sure if I have any other choice.

Last question: Is there any way I can type in contacts on my computer and transfer them over? Via syncing through...outlook maybe? Anyone get what I'm sayin here?
