Re: Backup / Reload on SMS & Connection Settings

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

In addition to Sprite Backup (which is excellent at cross-ROM upgrade
restores), I heartily recommend PIM Backup, which is free (!!!) and
frlawleessly backups / restores PIM stuff (but not Connection settings -
you'll need a full, commercial backup app like Sprite for the latter).

See my dedicated articles for more info on PIM Backup

Hi All,

Just a quick question about SMS and Connection settings.


1. Does anyone know how to backup SMS messages, and transfer them back if
you have done a fresh install of the ROM ?
I have tried to copy the windows/messages folder and replace but no good?

2. Does anyone know how to backup the data connection settings, and
transfer them back if you have done a fresh install of the ROM ?
I have tried to copy the connmgr folder and replace but no good?


Many thanks!
