Sprite does have a selective restore. I'm not sure if it's file by file, but I noticed the option the other day when I restored after a hard reset...

I will check, but I'm pretty sure they're divided by "groups," not "files." I will re-install and check this though, thanks!

Was this ever confirmed because if it was it will save me alot of time with having to try and reinstall certain files.

I am a Sprite Backup user too:)

From my knowledge base, Sprite Backup is able to perform a selective restore and also you should be able to restore some certain files when the restore page pop up on your device. What you need is just find which files you want to restore to your device and then uncheck the rest files. After that initiate the restore process then you will get your files back:)

I've used Sprite Backup for several years. I first used it with my iPag H555 about 4 years ago. I didn't even know we had Sprite on our CD. I originally bought Sprite Backup from Handango, so their records showed I was still eligeable for an upgrade, at a lower cost, which I went ahead and bought.

Anyways, in regards to selective restore, it is able to. I've restored only personal files and even individual files previously. I've also recently restored Personal Databases, due to a harware reset, and had no problems.

I had to hard reset yesterday, away from my computer because it kept on hanging right after startup.. I used sprite backup and while it restored all of my programs, it didn't restore any of my data (ie: calandar, contacts, textmessages, email settings).. any idea what i did wrong?

im using the sprite version for the sprint 700wx if that matters..

Did you have those files checked when you did the backup? Did you have them selected to be restored?

After restoring a selected date has anyone had the message of having to ok the running of svl.dll I always select yes because I know I selected no one time & I had to do a hard reset. Just wondering as to why I get this message sometimes.

I've had that witth a couple of DLLs and EXE files, I think it's because Sprite restores/overwrites these files and you need to re-approve them like you did when you installed it originally.
