The screen of one of my two XDA I is broken, but as the whole technical stuff inside is still working I am trying to get hold of my data that is stored on it. Unfortunately the Backup function of Active Sync is does not help because it does not accept my second device as one to put the backed up data one ("...device is not the same...").
Now I want to do it with the SD Backup function of the Bootloader, but as I cannot see what the screen is dysplaying I am not sure what buttons to press. Does someone know what buttons I have to press in what order to make the phone saving the data on the SD Card? Thanks for any help.

I think it is not possible, what you want to do.
There is a backup option in the bootloader, but this is just for the ROM and the bootloader. No additional data will be backup.
Also, if you only enter the bootloader, all of your data will be lost. Itīs the same like doing a hard reset...

I think you're trying to do something other than what you are actually trying to accomplish. Copying the bootloader isn't going to get the data off of your device. If you need to create a backup of the data, simply remove all your prior relationships then redock your broken unit and then you should be able to create a new relationship and create a fresh backup from the device. However, if you've already entered bootloader, you're done, as entering the bootloader performs a hard reset on the device.

I think what you can do is:
1. Connect your PPC to your PC with USB Craddle and ActiveSync
2. Install Pocket Controller software to control your XDA from your PC. Thus you can see the screen of your XDA on your PC.
2. Use any backup software (Sprite backup or Sunny soft ..) to back up your data.
Hope it helps.
