I have had a search on this site but have not found the answer.

I hard reset my phone quite regularly (dont ask why) and unless i do a full backup the WiFi profiles (ie the remembered networks i have connected tooand their WEP keys).

What i want to know is-is there a file that contains this information that i can just copy off the phone? coz my mates network has like a 52 charicter(not that many) key to access, Very annoying when i have to type it in TWICE everytime.

I hope someone can help

Thank you so much for your time in advance

Don't need a genius for that. Just save the appropriate registry branch and then re-import into the registry after the hard reset. You will need a registry editor that supports export/import.

Thanks for your reply, i didn't think that would be so easy, i mean being able to extract the profile that way and import it again and it still remember the WEP key, thats a bit of unsecure!

There's an app called WiFi Profiles...... see this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355936).

You can configure, save, load and apply different WiFi profiles (i.e. settings) for whatever locations you want.

Have a look, see if does what you want.....
