Can somebody please give me very explicit instructions on how to save my current ROM to either a 512MB SD card or a file on my PC.
I would like to try different ROMS but cannot afford to permanently break anything.
I have tried XDA tools but cannot get it to write the image to either my hard disk or the SD card. Do I need to format the SD card to be a bootable card first? Do I need to use a special filename in XDA tools?
Should I be able to save the ROM to SD from bootloader mode - if so how, and again do I have to format the SD card in a special way first?
Finally having got a ROM image how can I check that I can recover before blowing all I have away?
Apologies for asking dumb questions but I am getting nervous in my old age.
My current setup is an O2 XDA2
Rom Ver 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date 12/03/03
Radio Ver. 1.10.00
Protocol Ver. 1337.18
ExtROM Ver. 1.60.50
