wow, u got some strange issues goin on, but i would take the battery out first then try again...or do a soft reset, first. then cee if it'll boot...if not, might have no other choice but to do a hard reset

this blows. its too late. i had to do a hard reset cause the screen wouldnt even boot up after sprint logo.

i can only hope that after this hard reset i can some how for some reason click the backup on storage card and magically fix it back

heres where im at. just did hard reset. installed sprite backup program first thing. went to actual program and clicked restore like you suggested. it started searching for all restore files. i clicked the most recent one. and as of right now its in the restoring process. lets see what happens when this finishes/if this finishes without errors.

in theory this should put every single setting, contact, program i had on phone the day i made that backup, correct? even thoguh i just did hard reset? programs will work fine still?

in theory, of course. but yes, whatever THAT file had on it, should be restored when its done

even with the hard reset? i vaguely remember problems on my mogul towards the end where i uninstalled a program from the device and few days later did a restore and that program didnt work. will this hard reset cause same problems?

In theory, everything should work fine.

That doesn't always happen in exactly that way however.

ok so i lucked out for now. i was able to get it back to the most recent backup i made and everything "seems" to be running fine. any reason why i have to go into sprite program then restore through there instead of clicking the backup itself in storage card? i could have sworn it has worked that way before for me. anyways. sorry for all the postings. i flipped out for a couple seconds and just typed first things i was thinking in new posts. thanks for help though

yea, i remember doing that once, then having to restore from the sprite backup program from then on out. its a glitch in the matrix. it never should've worked the other way, but it did. glad to cee u got it fixed. as long as u back to square one. chop it up as a learning experience and off to the next project IMO..lol

Something else "stole" the file association for sprite backup files - it's not a big deal, just always use the app itself to restore the backup.

That is usually the best idea when performing a restore. Sprite wont backup up TF3D "anything" I always do a hard reset then restore.
