backing up phonebook before upgrade

[nxtlidenno]

Hey I was wandering if anyone knows if spb backup will work for the phonebook for upgrading the rom?

Im prettey sure it does backup the phone book but can't guarantee it.

If anything, just install the outlook 2007 demo on your computer and backup the phone book that way.

Yes Spb backup does work. I can now confirm this

I'd try backing up using Active Sync first. If you want to back up to a micro SD card, Try the attached PIM program. Place this file in Windows/Start Menu/Programs

I've used this program on the Hermes before and tried it on my Titan. It seems to work well. It saved my butt when my laptop died and I accidentally deleted all the contacts from my Device.

There is a newer version of this software and it can be found in the development and hacking forum.

xfer them to the SIM, then the point is moot. Will never loose them during a hard re-set or a ROM upgrade

no SIM in a Mogul.

You can store them on the Micro SD card I suppose.

Copy the file pim.vol which you can find in file explorer in the root of the phone, then after upgrade replace it with the existing one using resco explorer.

PIMBackup. Never any problems. Saves texts messages,appointments, phone calls, contacts and tasks. Never has given me any problem. Plus there is a new version just released.

I use dashwire for regular backups, does almost everything(no calendar yet...) even speed dials.

It's nice because even if you backup to an SD card and lose your phone, you still have your contacts.

I hate using outlook,but still use it once and a while.

That's really all you have to do? can anybody confirm that this works?
