Borked Backup by ROM change?

[CPhoenix]

Chaps,

A little while ago I changed my splash screen using the HardSPL/SplashTool/CustomRUU but now my Vario III has developed a fault and needs to be sent back for replacement/repair. Thinking it best to restore the original ROM, I located the UK TMobile ROM from elsewhere on this forum, backed up my data using Sprite backup and performed the necessary reflash

As I still want to use my Vario III until I hand it back, I tried to restore my backup to the phone. However, I'm getting a ROM mismatch error from the sprite software and advises that is couldnt recover CEMAIL.VOL or PIM.VOL either :S

Also, now when I select 'Contacts' from the main screen - I get the following error: "Shortcut Target - Error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename" plus now I only get the "Sim Contacts" when using the 'contacts' option from the start menu, when I should see 2 icons.

From what I remember when I performed the reflash today, it said that the version numbers matched. I can't think whats causing this :(

Please could anyone help me out here?

Cheers

It won't work because it's a different rom!

Imagine taking an image of windows 2000 and using it to restore a vista machine (just an example) ... it just won't work.

You basically have to start from scratch.

I hadn't modified my ROM apart from the splash screen, plus when I performed the reflash I was told the two ROM versions were the same ?

Also since reflashing with the TMobile ROM from this site - I dont seem to have half of the stuff in the "organiser" folder i.e. Calendar plus I swear that bubblet (or whatever) came as standard on WM6. I could be wrong about that though.

The ROMs aren't the same!
