I used to be a big fan of dashwire, but my txt msg limit was reached with them (10,000) so i stopped using it.

There is no 10,000 SMS limit in Dashwire. I have nearly 30,000 messages.

They just did some small changes to msmyphone. Its still very selective, they need to change that crap that no files from the card are backed up. Thats stupid. they give you 200 megs--let me use it how I want.

I'm thinking it will get better.

Anyone have a better mobile upload browser than the default mobile wondows one? I was trying to upload some photos to my msn profile from my phone but the browser is totally retarted. I have rescoe but cant seem to get it to kick in as the default. ..?

I've never had a duplicate contact with Dashwire.

On the other hand, I had MANY problems with MyPhone creating multiple duplicates of all my texts. When I tried using the "find duplicates" it would flag non-duplicates and I had to manually go through and delete them. The web interface SUCKS for this as well.

i like both, i wonder if i can rin both at the same time? dual back ups? it does seem that dashwire runs all the time while my phone only runs when we run it.

i prefer dashwire to archive my text so i can delete em off my phone with my phone when i delete em on my physical phone they are deleted on myphone.com also
yes my phone has a archive to web feature but u have to do that on each page and im not going to do each page individually so dashwire it is

I switched to MyPhone because Dashwire kept screwing up my contacts..it started with losing the picture associated with the contact, and progressed to losing all info on the contact except for the name. And sometimes even that.

i'm having some problems with myPhone. Basically it gets stuck when trying to download any contacts to my phone. Uploading new contacts from the phone works fine though. So I'm not sure what to do.

Any one else having this problem?

i had similar problems with dashwire.
i tested restoring contacts with dashwire after my last 3-4 flashes. i thought it worked ok at first. then i noticed some of the conacts didn't have the phone numbers anymore, just the name. i restored with a pim backup from a month ago and i noticed the ones that dashwire had problems with were ones where the contact number was saved as a pager number (all of my phone numbers got changed to pager numbers when the sprint store moved my contacts from my old samsung to my new tp). i guess i could make sure all the numbers are moved from the pager line to the mobile line in the contact info and then try again with dashwire, but now i don't trust it. i really liked dw other than that. might try using dw for my pics and something else for the contacts,calander, ect.

Unfortunately, I don't think that's the issue. None of my contacts have a number listed for a pager.

Edit: Finally hit 500 :P

I was hav ing that problem, then after A LOT of searching, I found that it could be related to Mobile Shell and the way the facebook photos were integrated. I went in to MyPhone and edited my contact photos back and they downloaded correctly with no hanging.

Mobile Shell put out a beta with a bug fix for that and, well ... we'll see next time I flash my phone. *fingers crossed*
