Im using the Xplore ROM and have reinstalled all of the apps i used in Faria's WM6 the real thing. But now after I restore all of my info using Spb backup, I cannot get any service with T-Mobile (I live in Florida, if that helps). Is there some file in the backup that could have messed up my service?

App Backup doesn't work from one rom to another. May not work well even on same rom.

umm, so should i just leave it how it is and half-way start from scratch, cuz all i really need is my emails, and i can get those back easy, or can I use another backup tool?

In don't encourage any other backup than PIM Backup...only for stuff like contacts..appointments,tasks and messages

You're not about to reflash the rom every day. Take your time and install the programs you need.

I'll just try PIM backup

and where exactly is it hidden in Faria's WM6 the real thing ROM? I could never find it on there...

ohh and i do end up flashing it at least more than twice every other day :P

Start from scratch!

Anichillus is right, you can't go from Rom to Rom. SPB backup is good for restoring the same Rom.

Going from Rom to Rom is like trying to restore a Win98 pc with an XP backup disc. Sprite backup is supposed to work for what you want to do but I haven't seen or heard anyone confirm this.

Haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else, so...
With new version of spb backup it will recommend rom restore mode on detection of changed rom... if this causes no service, you can try a normal full restore and see if there are no problems with your phone.

Using H3r7 beta 1 after a back-up restore no service (same rom after hard reset) i checked if drivers are loaded and they are, also no change in connection type. i think that the registry restore has a bug, will compare before and after registry and come back whit an answer.

Haven't fount the cause but after doing a custom restore now it works.

What you need to do is restore using the "Rom Upgrade Mod"

select "Customize Restore" next,next, click options, Check "Force Rom Upgrade Mode", done,next, Chose "Rom Upgrade Mode" from the drop-down menu, check "Overwrite existing files check-box, next, next and you're done.
