Backup original ROM?
 

How do I backup my original ROM? Is there a tool I can use?

Thanks to all. This forum ROCKS!

Im certainly not a pro at this technical stuff - but I dont think there is a need to backup your old ROM - if you want to flash a standard ROM to your device - just ensure you have the ROM on your computer i.e. download it from this site or from your carrier site or utstar.com.

Again - Im just learning but me thinks that is how you go back to your original ROM.

Backup ROM
 

My problem is that my wireless carrier is EMBARQ. They purchase the phones from Sprint but have their phones customized to their specs. I can't use the Sprint ROM because it does not contain the correct PRL. EMBARQ also buys tower time from Alltel and roaming is free to EMBARQ customers. So if you are on Sprints CDMA or Alltel CDMA its all the same to EMBARQ. So I would like to backup my current ROM before trying one of the many other ROMs that seem to function allot better that the stock ROMs. The backup would only serve the purpose of flashing back incase of warranty return or service. Thanks again in advance.

Check your ROM version. Start->Settings->System->Device Information. Good chance it's from Sprint. The PRL can be different based on the method EMBARQ uses, but bet thats also from Sprint.
