Hi,

First of all: Happy New Year!

Over the last couple of days I have updated my Qutie 9000 for the x-th time, but now I am finally happy with the whole thing.
Installed all my tools and applied all skins and tweaks etc. Now I want to make a backup of the entire thing (OS, apps, registry etc.). So I can re-apply this backup after a crash or when I have gone to far in customising my Qutie... believe me... it happens.. :)

Is it possible to make such a backup that you can re-apply? If not, what would be the best approach to take?

Thanks in advance.

Would like to know this too. Entire backup, emails, accounts and everything. Have no computer so to set up outlook accounts on etc so my Uni is my baby for everything.

use spb backup... it will be optimum for your needs... and you can keep the backed up file on your storage card... so if your uni ever crashes, all you ot to do is to run the backup file....it also supports sequential backing up

Quite a good program indeed. But, does it actually copy everything?

I did the mistake of backing up AKU2 and restore on AKU3.5. Crashed everything. Even if I only choose specific things.

But, nuff said. Good program, if you use it wisely.

Basically is should be a safe options is to restore (if needed) on the same OS version?
So I would only have to restore the ROM and then restore the backup?
I mean... I have a lot of tweaks and use skins on all my apps... will the registry and the applications be restored as they are now?

Thanks.

yes... you can not use it after upgrade.... for that matter when i upgraded from 3.3 to aku 3.5 and then used it to restore... the system showed aku 3.3 again.... but works great otherwise... have been using it for more thn a yr now

Sprite can restore after a ROM upgrade, SPB cant, provided you follow the instructions in the Sprite FAQ step by step, everything can be restored to the new ROM apart from pop accounts :cool:

I decided to use Sprite. Works like a charm. Thanks for all your help/advice.

Cheers,
