Right now I have a stable version with many applications installed and customized.
I want to test several new roms.
There is any posibility to make an backup image of my pda in order to quick restore the initial stable image?
Thank you

use SPB Backup if you want to restore your applications/settings etc.,
Its better to restore backup on the same ROM used for taking backup than on an altogether different flavour. eg., you flashed tomal 8.2 and installed several applications on top of it, take a SPB Full Backup and restore on tomal 8.2 after flashing it afresh (in case you need restore) than restoring this backup on someother ROM.
Though it works by restoring the applications etc on any version of os/ROM it will be less stable.
hope this helps.

I always used SPB bakcup and it always worked very well! You can customize auto backups and restoring them is very simple: the program creats an executable.
But, as rbalu72 said, it's not a good idea restore a backup made on a rom on another one. Every installation makes many registry and file changes that may vary rom to rom.
If you want to test other roms always make clean installs!!!

it is very good and useful because when you have backup file you can simple run it without installation the "mother program" to restore files. You can also try to use backup file on other ROM...

I see that you can freely download and use this. I even tried the software. Could you please tell me if the trial version has any limitations ? Would I be able to restore the files one month/week later ?
