I used the PPCPimBackup program to backup my data for my diamond before installing a new rom. But its default location is \storage card which I cannot find after re-installing a new rom. Where can I find the backup file? Can anyone help me to restore my data? PLEASE HELP

maybe you have killed your BackUpFile,
i think PPCPimBackup have create a own folder \storage card,
because you dont have an \storage card on DiAMOND, you have an \Internal Storage

maybe is stored on \programs\ppPIMbackup folder or \programfiles??



just a tip, you dont need the application,
just copy the file pim.vol for contacts and todo`s
if you want to save also your email, copy the \windows\messaging\ folder

i made the same mistake first time I used it. It will say backup finished but just above it there will be an error saying storage not found. You manually have to change it to internal storage. So sorry, it didn't backup anything.

i save everytime 2 copys from the pim.vol 1.@InternalStorage & 1.@ PC,
when i reBuild (after Hardreset) my Device,
just rename the existing pim.vol (as you want) for example mip
then copy the pim.vol which previously has been saved with the contacts,
take a softreset, delete the renamed pim(mip).vol
DONE.



do you have any idea to restore text messages?
thanks a lot

to restore SMS??
i dont know a solution(only ThirdpartySoft), personaly i do not need this
