Thanks.

Hey guys:

Thanks for the update. I did another backup last night. But I forgot to uncheck "stop all processes". It took all night to complete. I started it at 11:30pm and by the time I went to bed at 2am, it still wasnt done. I thought you had to stop the process's first before doing a good back. I use to backup my Mogul & Moto Q with SPB Backup and then I would get a call and everything would be screwed. Thats why I always left it checked.

FYI: I did notice it was saying that it was backing up 4.77gb of info. I think its backing up my memory card as well, which is a 8GB card with about 4GB of info stored on it. Is that possible?

Thanks for your help

That should work fine. I have two xv6800's & I restore backups made with SPB betweeen the two all the time & it works great.

PM me if you need any help.

I do nightly backups. Is there a way for avoid it resetting my phone? I makes me miss my alarms when it resets. Does it HAVE to reset after a backup?

[flyhigh]

Just to clarify, these backup programs (SPB and Sprite) will backup the entire phone to it's current state? For example, if I have to do a hard reset and restore from my saved backup I'll get my phone back to exactly where it is now? Does that include all the manila changes, glass/flip clock, themes, installed .cabs and stuff like that? Thanks.

Yes, that is exactly what they do.

I don't even worry about hard resets anymore as I always have a currnet SPB BU file on my sandisk card.
