View Full Version : Before upgrading a rom....

All, this is a question that I am sure must have been asked before, but I can't construct a search that allows me to find an answer :-(.

I like to update the ROM periodically because I do have some strange behaviors every now and again. As I read Ricky's list of fixes, I see some of my issues being resolved.

However, each time I apply a ROM update, everything not on the SIM card gets wiped out. That's no biggie for me with the data, everything I need there is on a PC somewhere anyway. It's the t-mobile settings that are a pain. I have made a notre of what they all are, but it would be really nice to be able to simply apply those settings. I would think the easiest thing to do would be to back them up somewhere - somewhere that isn't going to get trashed during the ROM upgrade and then reapply them.

The trouble is I can't find a way to back them up and restore, nor to persist them somewhere on the device, so I end up retyping them. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks

Chris

It would really help us out if you tell us what you are trying to backup, what kind of information, data, so on.

I am needing to back up all the t-mobile connection settings. These settings are accessed under connections and are in gprs, proxy and vpn. They have names like T-Mobile Proxy, T-Mobile Data and T-Zones GPRS.

Thanks in advance

I can't speak about Kavanas ROM but I do know that Ricky's has a program called "connection setup" where you can select your country and carrier and the settings get applied automatically.
