Well restoring the backup made by SK Tools failed. The phone would still boot, but things were just messed up, as far as... it was like a patchwork thing going on. Hard to explain, but not worth doing, anyways.

So, I will try something different. I'm going to try with SPB Backup again. The great thing about SPB Backup is that when you restore a backup, it will detect if the ROM or even if the device is different. It will then prompt you to restore the backup using ROM or Device Upgrade mode, which seems to selectively NOT overwrite certain system files, but still will restore your installed programs and valid registry settings and stuff like that. This often leaves you with some things still needing to be 'fixed' though, like you might have to go into Settings and set your backlight timeout or other little things that you kinda have to dig around and find, but overall still saves TONS of time for not having to re-install and set up all your programs.
