-Added Backup for "Accounts", since it's needed to get a fully working sync of your mail accounts after restore.
Before you needed to activate all syncs manually.
(We still recommend you to log in at Google in HTC Setup Wizard so Google can restore other settings and missing apps etc.)

Backup tool, will now backup: Apps located in /data/app, Accounts, [...]

Settings Restorer 1.1

Nice to see the accounts are included in the backup and restore scripts! This was stopping me from using these scripts untill now. I will test it as soon as BaadNewz releases a new InsertCoin rom. I'll let you know the results.

Didn't exchange calendar work when we did all the testing?

Cool

Known issue so far is that evernote account won't sync. Workaround, remove and re add the account.

If you use HTC facebook/Facebook you need to accept Facebook integration and that's it.

Good luck!

Ok, well this is as close we will get for now. Since I don't use exchange at all I won't be able to find a fix.
A clue might be to backup calendar data or at least a part from it...

Update!

---

Updated Beta section

Backup Tool v1.5 Beta 1 2012-01-29
Fixed placeholders for 3rd party widgets. Now all widgets should be restored!

Please let me know the results!

I used Backup Tool v1.5 Beta and Settings Restorer v1.2 Beta. These are my findings:

- HTC Sense account: The account is restored, but HTC Hub cannot connect. Probably it's due to not showing the agreement one has to accept at first run. Removing and re-adding the account triggers the agreement popup and solves the problem.

- Exchange Active Sync account: The synchronisation of mail and contacts are disabled, although they were enabled when backing up. I had to tick the checkmark to re-enable the synchronisation.

- Exchange Active Sync account: The update frequency was not set to push as it was when backing up, but to every 15 minutes.

- HTC Launcher: All apps and widgets were restored. One widget (a shortcut to a note from ColorNote) was replaced by a placeholder. Restoring the user data for ColorNote did not fixed the placeholder; I had to remove en re-add the widget (I think this cannot be fixed, the placeholder seems a legit solution)

Thx for your feedback!

Some account's can't be restored properly with out some kind of user guidance.
HTC Facebook is one of them. I will do my best and try to find a solution.

Regarding exchange, I can't fix it since I don't use it... :/ if you find something please let me know.

Did you use Backup Tool v1.5 Beta 1? This one has a fix for 3rd party widget's. But as you say, it might not be fixable. I had one widget that didn't work and it was "invisible lock widget", a admin file was missing for it...
