Things to keep in mind?

[JanHartmann]

Hi guys..

I just got my first ever smart phone, Touch Dual, and I wish to look into it, so I have a few questions.

Since I would like to edit registry settings, edit the cube etc. I would like to know what I should be aware of? What software would come to my aid if something fail and I need to restore the phone?

And which application could you recommend for edit registry, and other settings?

Sorry for these newbie questions, but as soon as I get these things up and running, I would do anything to contribute to this forum. :)

Sprite backup is the way to go for..backups, 10 day trial period if memory serves, you can restore forever;

To edit the registry, you can use the regedit module of Resco Explorer.

if your worried that anything you do might completely kill your phone then dont worry... apart from flashing a new and it going wrong, a hard reset of the phone will factory reset it and fix most problems

my touch dual is shipped with sprite backup (on a software cd). maybe you can also check whether any other useful utils available on yours.

Thanks for the replies..

My phone was shipped with the backup software, just installed it - seems to work like a charm, except it couldn't save some Messenger Live files, but they didn't seem important anyway.

Anyone other recommendations? :)

yeah..its so cool that they give a registered copy & not a trail for the sprite backup...its a life saver for us folks who flash & tweak a lot!
(btw...the sprite backup is a HTC version....whatever that means)

I think thats because you can only use it on a htc device?
