Noob's Flashing question: Is there a way to "backup" your actual ROM??

[fmachado2906]

Hello there,

I'm very excited to try some really nice ROM's I have seen in here, but I'm afraid that some day if I would want to get it back to the "factory" version of my HTC P4351 (that's the model name for our "Herald" here in Brazil) I could not do it.

Anyway, is there a way to Backup my actual ROM before I flash it to another? Also, is there some concern I must have regarding my carrier (not only the network configuration itself, but some "block" that they could have implemented in the device)?
My cell phone carrier is CLARO, if there are other brazilians here who actually had success in flashing, your comments are really appreciated!!

Thanks in advance folks. :D

Claro Que Si!

Sorry, I had to, but yeah I'm pretty sure you can although I never have. It's called a dump, right guys??? I dunno, someone else will come along and tell you how

I had the same question a few months ago. I was told to use the search function (which turned up nothing).

Good luck!

I found this in Wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=XDAtools

but it looks like it's just for old phones/OS ... Does anyone know how to create an image of the WM6 Pro ?

You can follow ITJE's post regarding on how to build your own rom ... dump your rom, then recook it. I'm not a cook, so I wouldn't know all the details.
