Easily Recovering Apps/Settings After ROM Flash

Hey there everybody,

First off, yes, I know I'm a newbie on the forums here, but have been lurking for a while here, learning a lot, but there's just one thing that's been bugging me (and if I posted this in the wrong forum, please feel free to flog me ).

I have a Sprint Touch Pro running MightyROM 4.9.5, and love it. The problem is that in addition to the various apps that come with MightyROM, I have to install a variety of other apps and customized settings after installing the ROM. Is there an easy way to backup applications and settings that can then be recovered after a ROM flash? Primarily I'm concerned with my e-mail accounts, as I have five in here and it's a pain to reset things all back up after a flash. I also do have some other apps that I installed (TeleNav, PocketSharpMT, Citrix Client) that I wouldn't even expect to find in the ROM, but I personally need for work, and it'd be nice if I didn't have to reinstall all those, too.

So what do frequent flashers do? I have a copy of Sprite Mobile backup as well as HTC Backup (my Sprite backup isn't working properly as it says it's not registered, even though I have the paypal receipt that I paid for it). I'd love to play with some of the new tweaks in the new ROMs, but don't want to spend a bunch of time reinstalling apps and settings afterwards.

Thanks for any help you can provide!
