Anybody help me, please!
After I tried to use i-mate ROM 1.72, I realised it had some big bugz that causes when U use/install some kinda' applications it freezes totally and when you want reset your device the XDA2 doesn't boot the system, and you just see the bootimage and booting stops. It happens accidentally not depends on you at first sight.
Ok, I thought, I restore the system after a hard reset from my SDCard with XBackup. But after restore (XBackup said: "restore is complete") that freezing happend again. Just the bootimage, not more.
That's why I downgraded the ROM to O2_1.60 and tried to restore my backup file on SDcard created by XBackup. It worked, but it has another problem: after restore process xda2 can't see the 'Storage' and 'Extended_ROM' folders although after hard reset it seemed.
In the registry (\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Storage Manager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC & TRUEFFS_DOC2) everything is normal and values the same than before the hard reset.
So, anybody has an idea what's happend and how can I get to visible this two folders ('Storage' and 'Extended_ROM')?
ROM 1.66
aNOTHER THING:
Has anybody the ROM1.66 in english language?
Can you put it here or give me a link or an ftp site where I can download it? I've been searching for it for 3 days and I can't find it anywhere on the net

Welcome to the club... I have the same problem and NO ONE knows whats wrong... I used Sprite Backup...
I gave up and trying to live without that freacking 16 MB Storage
My current rom is Qtek 1.72
And rom 1.60 won't help it...
:lol:
I have the same problem. After upgrading to 1.66 my "Storage" disappeared. How do I get it back?
Hi,
I spend hours on searching a solution for this in the registry... The only solution is to perform a new hard-reset en re-install everything manually...

Me fixed mine flash that rome which you had during backup, mine was "T-Mobile 1.6.06 rom" and then restore your data.. everything back to normal :wink:

Hello there
I was have WM2003 (ROM 4.0.0.5) , but when I noticed slowness I decided to go back to 3.18, so I used SD Backup wich come with WM2003
I backed up only Contacnts and Appointments
Then , I downgrade to 3.18. I tried to use SD Backup to Restore Contacnts, but when I press "Restore" tab, it gives me
Source: None
Space Needed: None
Soace Available: None
and Button 'Start' is disabled
So I'm stuck I can't restore my contacts. and ActiveSync doesn't have my contacts because I didn't install Outlook, so they are bit sycned
Please guys, tell me how to restore my conacts in PPC2002 from my SD Card...
Regards
save contacts and appointments via the Permenant save, in SETTINGS
works alot faster , and no sd required
Thank you for suggestion
but for now , how to restore the contacts,should I go back to WM2003 ?
BTW, how does permenant save works if there is no memory works without power? are you talking about the new i-mate ppc (XDA II) or Qtek (O2 XDA) ?
Another question , from where did you get 4.00.21 ? and do you still able to upgrade/downgrade using Programme A ?
Last question, If you are using XDA, T-Mobile or Qtek with WM2003 . is it fast enough or PPC2002 is faster ?
Thanks

if you Must have 2002, then i suggest going to 2003 first, save to permenant memory (xda1) then go back to 2002 and restore from it.
that memeory work without power, because its static memory. just like that 1k memory built into most modems, that no one notices.
once u upgrade to 2003, u can only go back to 2002 via bootloader/sd card method. program A wont work.
what 4.00.21?
i liked the 2003, but some games didnt work quite right on it. due to internal timming issues. so i went back to 2002. awaiting the Real final release of 2003.
Thanks so much
I'm now going back to 2003
Permenant Save is really cool, thanks a lot
Hey guys, I have just upgraded my rom and found a couple of downfalls with the new version.
1) the extended rom tools to unhide and unlock no longer work - extended Rom now seems inaccessable
2) the internal memory area called 'Storeage' has disappeared also, leaving me with 16k less memory than I had before the upgrade!!
Any ideas how we can get these back??
I don't think it is to do with the ROM upgrade specifically.
Have you installed any other software?
I had this a couple of times a while back whilst I was experimenting with different ROMs and BT stacks, doing backups and restoring, etc.
Have you tried a hard reset?
Also, look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=10473 where other people had same problem.
Thanks for the info; your'e right:
I checked the other thread you mentioned, and have given it a go...
If you perform a hard reset my device with the new rom has the storeage available and the extended rom unlock tools work again. Restoring a backup and they both disappear.
Looks like I am going to have to rebuild my system :-(
I suspect that restoring an old backup replaces lots of windows related files and registry settings. I tried to install the fonix voicedial from the ext rom post-restoring and it claimed i had the wrong ROM version!
So yes, a rebuild is necessary
Certainly seems that way. Oh well, good luck!
Running new upgrade over unofficial upgrade
Just being lazy here - can you just do a hard reset and run the new 02 update over the 1.72.126 ver. as it says wrong version when you attempt to run it from after a normal reset (incorrect language error)?
Cheers,
Ste G.
As a general rule it is never a good idea restoring a backup over a different ROM version - bit like restoring a W2K backup over an XP install. That said, the latest version of Sprite is supposed to be ROM upgrade safe.
I always use the opportunity to clean out all the crap by doing a full reload - bit like the twice yearly Windows rebuilds on my PC.
hi all need urgent advice as ive killed my hd2
i was fearful of upgrading to new rom from htc website (v-1.66...)
was using 1.48.405.2 (71294) wwe
I made sure i researched everything 1st. i downloaded trial of spb backup. installed to phone. did full backup, saved to sd card. closed all progs, phone & pc
opened rom update and followed instructions. update then finished, went through setup on phone.
all seemed fine. basic clock, time settings (few new features etc)
I then went to file explorer/storage card and opened spb backup file. clicked next throughout. device reset on its own and loaded with new rom number on startup.
Problem!!!!
have my background image up pictures seem to be back, as are messages. cab files ive installed are present but I cant access contacts and a few other features.
repeated messages are 'a problem has occured with cprog.exe' please tell microsoft blah blah!!!
Htc sense will not launch despite how hard i hit the screen.
Ive no signal at all and cant sync with my pc. i guess suggestions of a hard reset will follow this post but will i not be in the same boat as i will need to restore my settings etc from sd card and spb backup.
please help!!!
try to flash the rom again or try to use your old one.

ok. will try
shouldprob mention that i got a strange message when trying to restore
'this device is different from one which this backup was made. please choose upgrade mode'
then a dropdown menu with
'normal mode'
'rom upgrade mode'
'device upgrade mode'
with a check box 'overwrite existing files' (this is checked)
seems strange but the message before states that the backup was created on an t-mob leo device.
something wrong here maybe???
yeah could be.
sorry mate, i'm not very knowledged about spb backup
DN41
sp backup has a "rom upgrade" option i'm guessing you usedthat? in which case that's the problem, because it really means upgrade of the same rom, whereas you have a totally new rom, so should use the individual settingsoption, and reinstall your programs manually.
(based on reading, i've never done it myself, nor used sp backup)
re flash your original rom, restore your backup and think again how and what you are backing up.
just tried a 'normal restore' as the description says restore to original device backup was made on.
phone has now turned on with everything the same as i left it but looking at the software description its gone back to the original rom 1.48.405.2
do i have to run the update again?
what the hell is going on with this phone!!!
no, the rom is the new rom, but thats a fine example of whats wrong.
It has restored the rom version info from your registry backup.
The rom version is not a problem, of course, it just says teh wwrong thing, but there are likely to be loads of reg settings that ARE a problem.
Basically, using backup software can be a pain, till you know its pitfalls. Thats why i dont bother. Contacts/calendar via outlook, and thats it. Everything else i setup manually myself. (Well, i dont cos by now i've made cabs for all my tweaks and what not, but tyou get the idea.)
This is one of the main reasons I don't backup Settings and Programs. I only back up my PIM, and sometimes even that plays up.
You are better off just syncing your phone with Outlook, hardreset, sync again to get your PIM information, and reinstalling your programs one by one.
I can tell you this I use SPB backup all the time, but ...
1.) Normal restore is only for restoring to the EXACT same ROM that you had on before ..
2.) ROM upgrade mode is only good for ROMs in the same series*
*ROM upgrade mode only works correctly on "upgraded" version of the same ROM you had on it , for example, in my case I use Energy ROM CHT 23569 JUL 1st, I make a backup, then upgrade to Energy ROM CHT 23569 JUL 16th, then ROM upgrade mode should work, but if you go say from a Stock TMO rom to a custom rom or a 21xxx series rom to a 23xxx series rom you will have "ISSUES".
If you plan on flashing ROMs often , you either need to learn to use something like XDA_UC, Sashimi, or Toms Autoinstall, and make frequent PIM backups ..
As well as keeping all your program cabs in a safe organized place so you can put them back on ...
I hope this helps you get it sorted ....

just a long shot, if you are a seasoned flasher might be time to format sd card, back up data and give this a try

Changed roms
tried task29
hard reset n all that
removed memcard (even put another one)
Changed radio as well...
still same problem
Could be a bad SD card. I had one awhile back and my Sense would lock up and act weird. I thought I had fried my cell, but it was only the SD card. Power down the cell, remove your SD card and power it up. If it acts normal, then it's the SD card and you gotta buy a new one Starting up without SD card won't mess anything up. Also, if you have a XDA_UC and/or Autoinstall folder where you autoload cabs, it could be you have an old cab in there that's messing up the newly flashed ROM. Good luck!
Recently I upgraded my HTC ROM from 1.66 to 3.14, followed by restore operation using SPB backup to restore all programs installed from v1.66. However I discovered that almost all of my installed program icons on the Marketplace are not correctly display, it showed the icons from other programs. The program icons on my phone is correct. I did try to uninstalled, clean up all residual files from memory, registry key clean up, then installed again, problem still exist. Anyone how idea how this being resolved? Thanks..
ahknow have you hard reset your phone after upgrading? Because thats what usually what happens after you upgrade your phone. i had the same problem earlier when i upgraded, but after hard reseting my phone every thing work and display properly.
You mean power up again after upgrade? Yes, I did but same problem happen. I have not done any factory reset, that will wipe out all my programs....will be my last steps if no solution coming...
Managed to figure out the problem. Need to clear the "Cache" contain.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
This is the default:
"Cache"="\\Windows\\Profiles\\guest\\Temporary Internet Files"
