Using Sashimi to automatically restore contacts on a touch pro

[garyflynn]

Is there a file I can put into the auto folder of sashimi to restore backed-up contacts?

If not, is it possible to run pim_backup for a given backup file from a mortscript that I could put into the auto folder?

just put this in your mortscript file and change the copy from folder location and you should be good to go...

Rename("\pim.vol", "plim.vold")
Copy("\Storage Card\Auto\pim.vol", "\pim.vol")
SetFileAttribute("\plim.vold", "archive", FALSE)
Delete("\plim.vold")


cheers!!

I use MS MyPhone and Sashimi and want to know if there is a way to back up my call history with Sashimi since MS MyPhone wont do it.

i know you want something different, but i have a cab that transscribes call history to your calender... if you sync your calender along with your other stuff, this in a sense would still keep your call history, but just not in the traditional way your realy looking for...

here it is, just in case...i think this is it

i pretty much do the exact same thing. wrote a script to copy that pim.vol file to my sd card every night, and another one to execute when sashimi is running the auto process

[elosogrande7076]

the way i do it is not as automatic but i put the pimbackup.exe in my exe folder in SASHIMI. WHen it comess to that point in installation, i just go to my latest saved file (call history included) and im good to go.

why not do the automated install with that exe...
that's what I do.
but I just have it set to my backup itself, not the program's exe...

How do you make a mort script run every night?

Are you using sprite or spb backup or is it that you have somehow gotten pimbackup to save its backup files as executables?

I'd rather use pimbackup because then I can also automatically bring along my messages and call logs, but I can't figure out a way to get sashimi to restore a specific pimbackup file.

Could that be done with mortscript?

I use spb in my sashimi,
but I do use pim also(but not in sashimi.)
But yes, that could also be done with mortscript(the manual pressing part)
go to sashimi's home and research their forum there.
tons of info and video walkthroughs.
