View Full Version : Proper call history/SMS backup/restore on WM6?

I'd love to try out some of the other awesome WM6 roms out there, but I am trying to figure out a way to do so without making my call history and SMS history vanish in a puff of smoke. Do any current backup programs properly backup and restore this data? Perhaps a program that can export this data to a file that can be later re-imported and properly re-linked with the associated contacts?

I've tried a few backup programs, and very few of them properly handle the PIM DB. The closest seemed to be SPB, which can back it up, yet it doesnt handle the restore of only the PIM DB correctly.

Thanks in advance for assistance.

Should I take the complete and utter silence as to mean there is no current solution for retention of call history?

:confused:

Here you go, works from porting from wm5 to wm6 even. Saves everything.

But be sure to test it completely before upgrading, and keep a copy of your pim.vol

This tool is new and may contain bugs.
