Hello,

I have a SPV M1000.

When the Primary battery and the backup battery are empty, I lost all my configuration.

I would like to know if there is a software (Solution) which make an image of the configuration and then I can put it on a SD card in order to restore all configuration, files, etc...

Thanks in advance,

Regards

Sure, there are a couple of solutions.

First, the back-up application (XBackup) installed on the device actually works, just do a back up to your SD card.

Secondly, Active Sync can do a complete backup (and restore).

You really should make a back-up using both of these apps. I keep a seperate 128 MB card for backup purposes, just in case my primary SD card gets corrupted.

Finally, Sprite Backup, a commercial thrid party application works (providing you use a pre-release of version 2.3). This is the fastest of the options and the one I use.

Thank you for illustrating all of these back-up methods...

When using them, do you get the problem of duplicating contacts and change of datestamp on all the PIM application when you try to syncronize again? Is there a way to avoid it?

I'm currently having this problem with XBack-up and the Active-Sync back-up utility...

Thanks,

Chris
