OK first will start with a complain. Maybe I was unlucky but although I love my Touch Pro 2, I really feel like the Hardware is not that good... Today my screen completeled jamed up (White background with blue/pink/green dots). The phone is still working (I can receive calls, etc...) but cant see a thing
I doubt it's linked to my Windows ROM (Original one) since when I boot up I cannot even see the screen with the ROM/Radio and Booloader version. It's only when I switch the screen on and off that I get the jammed screen (Otherwise it's black). So I can try to Hard reset... but I believe it's rather the video controler that is dead
Anyway... since the phone is still working (Activesync works !) and I stupidly didnt backup my MMS and SMS... I was wondering if someone knew how to back them up from my PC (For contacts and emails they are already backuped through Outlook)
Thanks a lot in adavnce and good luck with your device... (I cnat be 100% negative, I know many freinds who had to return their ipHone... Just pissed off that it happens to me without any particular reason)

There are many free to try remote control apps for windows mobile, they work in the same manner as pc remote cotrol apps and allow you to fully control the device from your pc. Google will find them easy.

You can also backup the databases via activesync.

Have you tried a tv out cable, perhaps it's just the device's ribbon cable that is damaged............


Cheers,

Looks great
But why the hell my PC is not laucnhing Acivesync when I connect my Touch Pro 2.............. Happened to me in the past with my Hermes and I have no idea why. I am offered to acces to the files or sync my media files but not to sync... Aaahh the worst time for this !!! Gonna google that...
I hope I dont have to enable it on the device... (It reminds me of soemthing on some custom ROMs where you ahve to allow sync through USB... (Though in tis case it's the original ROM and it still proposes to see the device files...)

**** Reinstalled the crappy Activesync (Or Mobile center for the new version) and it worked. Cant believe... the laptop is brand new. Anyway thanks a lot the Software is great and will allow me to save everything :)
