How to get "stuff" from broken phone to replacemen

I've had my ppc-6700 pretty much as long as it's been out. I have done tons of modificatons, "hacks" and tweaks. The earpiece speaker no longer works and for all of my calls I had to switch to speakerphone in order to hear anything....became annoying. So I broke down and had a replacement sent to me...

Is there any way I can create an "image" of my phone and move it over to this new phone. I really don't want to start all over...I'm already a little upset because the keyboard on this new phone doesn't light up. Whats THAT about?

Use SPB backup. But you should make certain that the ROM level is the same between the two phones or you could have problems when you restore.

Thank you....I have the rom update that I used on my broken phone and I've already updated the new phone anticipating starting over. I will locate the app you've mentioned and give it a shot. Thank you..I'll post on my progress.

I found the program, installed it, did the backup, retored the backup onto the new phone...and so far...it looks like EVERYTHING moved over. I still have to go into Sprint to get my number working on the new phone because it doesn't take or receive calls but I don't care because everything moved over. I'm haaaapppppyyyyyy!!
