How dump ROM on SD Card (9090)

[viscocesco]

Hallo,
I want to upgrade my 9090 from WM2003SE to WM5 but before to upgrade I want to do a dump of my ROM.
My device, XDA IIs, is brand Starmap Mobile Alliance
Rom: 1.40.04 ITA
Data ROM: 03/10/05
Radio: 1.13.00
Protocol: 1337.42
ExtRom: 1.40.199 ITA
How to backup my rom before to upgrade to WM5?

There is nothing special or unique about the ROM on your phone; if you can get a hold of the official ROM update then it will be the same.

I believe the wiki has info on this, unfortunately I don't have the precise link with me, but you can do a little bit of research there and find it. The procedure makes your SD card unusable as a normal card though. It can still be used to re-flash the ROM back to your machine, and it can be re-formatted to make use of it as a plain SD card again afterwards. you need at least a 64MB card to do it, 64-128MB should be enough. no point using a bigger card, since it will have no use except to hold your precious ROM backup.
