[TOOL] WP7 Easy Backup Tool (BETA)

SolarisOnline · Apr 5, 2012

Hi Siggystyle,

Thank you for your kind help!!

Normally there would be a sync left, unfortunately (my mistake / stupid) I forgot to sync before making this backup / hand over the device to IT department.…

Best regards,
Solaris

Just letting you know that the tool works on Samsung Omnia W / Samsung Focus Flash. Both backup and restore are functioning properly.

when I click the backup button, the buttons fade for like 5 seconds, and then back to normal without any progress bar or error.

I would like know, that work in Lumia 800 (T-Mobile, Hungary). Thanks.

Yes, of course. This is a PC app, not a phone app; it doesn't matter what device you're using as long as it runs any updatable version of WP7 (basically, anything except a few custom ROMs that broke updatability).

GoodDayToDie · Apr 13, 2012

No. Note the part before "Besides" please. The backups are encrypted with device-specific keys. Nobody has yet been able to move a backup from one phone to another, even of the exact same model.

Awesome tool. Saved my live.

Good morning fellas!

I have a few doubts about this software, and since it's not in description here I go:

-Does it have to be a unlocked phone?

-Does it have to be a phone with custom rom?

-Since it worked with HTC Arrive (no rom info though) will it work with HTC 7 Pro?

Best Regards

Hello!

I have HTC 7 Pro with Dynamics7 1.01b rom and it works. Never used it with stock rom, because I found this app when I started trying different custom roms...
I suppose that, since in post 1 or 13 there's written that zune and zune update must be supported by custom rom, I suppose it should also work for stock rom...
Or maybe I missed a post with the answer to this last point.

1. Not at all. Dev-unlock is only relevant for installing homebrew on the phone; this is a PC app.

2. It's actually more likely to work for a stock ROM than a custom ROM. This uses functionality built into the stock ROMs (but which is broken on some custom ROMs).

3. It'll work on any Windows phone (unless it has a custom ROM that breaks updateability). It uses no device-specific code of any kind. Anything from the Venue Pro to the Lumia 900 should work fine.

Tried backing up and it seems to work,
I hope I won't have the chance to test it to restore as well.

Thanks!

AdryJay · Apr 20, 2012

I've read about two posts from what it seems that this backup will preserve the Interop-Unlock... I'm very intrested becouse I've a Samsung Omnia W Interop-Unlocked and I want to install the new SAMSUNG updates, but I don't wont to loose the possibility of unlocking it after an hard reset.
So, my question is: this tool backups/restores also the registry of my Windows Phone?

Thanks a lot! ;D

GoodDayToDie · Apr 20, 2012

It is a complete backup of the phone's filesystem, except for your Zune library (which should be synced to the PC). All the user data (including apps and their data), all the ROM (including firmware), all the system files (including registry). It's the same kind of backup that Zune makes prior to installing an update.

Successfully used on
LG Quantum
LG-C900
Windows 7 64 bit
Mango 7.10.8107.79
Restore point shows up correctly in Zune after backup.

thank you
I believe it's safe to add LGs to your list.

Ok, so I have a Optimus 7/E900, and received the dreaded memory problem error. I made a backup and send it to LG, who have (hopefully) repaired it. But now when I try to restore the backup it fails with the error code 801812E0. I can't even find it on the internet. Says it can't restore the backup. What has happened? What's wrong, what am I doing wrong? Has the device ID changed?

GoodDayToDie · Apr 21, 2012

Did you get exactly the same device, with the same hardware in it, returned? Most "repairs" are flat-out replacements, sometimes only of affected components but sometimes of the whole device.

kadajawi · Apr 21, 2012

Well, I don't know. The case looks the same, I left the sticker at the back and it is still there. They have added a sticker saying it was repaired...

So if they have replaced anything I don't have a chance?

Btw. the brightness sensor doesn't work anymore. Well done, LG. lol.

the problem error was posted on the net before many times (not sure what search engine you use - I suggest you change that

did you make the backup on a different OS version than what the phone is on right now? E.g. you made the backup on 7.10.8107.79, but the device is currently only on 7720? Another possibility is a change in the firmware version or radio version of the rom. In summary, reading other posts with this particular error code means you would have to either discard the backup or start with a fresh manufacturer rom and update to the os version at which you made the backup (this seemed to have worked for a few, but I doubt this will work under your circumstances).

and as gooddaytodie suggested, check the device id from your backup and what your device has at the moment:
should look like this: 56b5a2d7 - 5320bd2b - 21c71ed1 - 04fd077b
cheers
