Default ADB Pull

I did the OTA update through tmobile and it messed up my phone. i have a vibrant stuck at logo screen and my latest nanoid backup was 10 days ago and in those 10 days i have done a lot with my phone. my life is on it. since i wanna keep those ten days of information. How do i go about pulling all the files off my phone? I did "Adb pull /system" and "adb pull /sdcard"

I want to keep my Chomp SMS texts, my AKNotepad writings, etc... Everything i do is on that phone. Thanks!

Any help would be appreciated! Today I must go on without a phone lol.

Won't that wipe the device completely and erase all the user data?

Im thinking it might. Im not sure there is a way to pull unsaved user data. Now if the JI6 file is a no wipe install that might save you from going through the pain.
Thanks to:Anyone who has contributed/contributes their time, effort, and work the android community

You should be ok with Odin as long as you don't select a PIT file or repartition or something. however, if that fails, then you may need to flash back to JFD before moving on to JI6 and you'll probably lose data on that flash back to JFD.

i think that's been covered a lot -- check general or dev sections.

good luck
