Hello from Leeds UK
I'm desperate for help after stupidly deleteing a file from my Leo. Now it will not sync with mobile device centre on my laptop so I'm unable to use my Sprite PC back-up. When I turn the phone on it is unable to open Sense, I have access to all the start menu programs, I'm able to get the internet but its not getting a phone signal Is there a way of downloading sense 2.5 and re-installing it? I'm able to sync on my PC using Active sync but unfortunatly my back-up files are on my laptop running the Mobile device centre. Many thanks to anyone who can help.
Regards
Mick
Do you know what it was that you deleted?
Might be time for a hard reset....

If you have backups on your laptop. Hard reset your HD2 and then restore from your laptop

transfer the backup file to your sd card using a card reader, The file should be the same as the ones done on the phone through sprite back up.

Made softreset, something got messed up because when i loaded the phone again, "couldnt read registry" cant install any apps, or use any apps...
i can basicly just use the "slider"
cant go to apps screen everything is screwed up....
now is my question how i can backup my contacts and sms
to make a format of the phone...
i cant use windows mobile center on computer just says "error"
and i tryed install SPB backup computer backup "error install on mobile"
The only way for me to make backup i think is to browse my phone and copy the files storing contacts if this is possible?

Hate to be the one to tell you this, but this is why you backup when you are NOT having problems, only takes a minute to run the PIMbackup program, or to make sure you have a recent sync. Could stay synced with Gmail OTA .
Someone else may have a better idea , maybe backup your cemail file, not sure if that works.
Good plan is to sync or backup at least once a week, if not more.
Or if you use the MS Myphone app it does it nightly , syncs whatever you have selected.
Dear folks,
I've got a major problem and I hoooooope there is a solution to it..
My tytnII froze when I tried to delete an appointment.. Therefore I had to do a hard reset and now I've lost all my contacts, sms etc..
I tried to find a software which can get the pim.vol file back but until now I didn't encounter any..
I dont have a backup, which is stupid, I know..
I've also thought of a solution.. For windows you've got recovery software like RecoverMyFiles.. Is there a way to connect your phone to your pc and make RMF see your phone as a removable disk or something similar..
Greets..

I don't think it's possible since the memory is wiped.
Good bye sms and tweaks.
For PIM... Well, if you are using ActiveSync with your PC, you will be able to get back all your contacts, appointments. Otherwise, all is lost, I am afraid.
+1
if no backup = lost
if no sync made = lost
if you have made sync, beware to check the direction of the sync ! else you will wipe out on PC too...
for future, use PPCPimBackup : www.dotfred.net
Hi, I had a few problems with my Streak so, O2 sent it off to be repaired. Before doing so I did a backup using the Dell sofware. On return they had given me a replacment phone and upgraded to 2.2. When I came to reload my backup the phone was not recognised by the software. After speaking to O2 and trying a few surggestions I gave up. None of my contacts etc had been synced with gmail.
After digging around a bit on the internet I found that the Dell backup software wich came with the phone and 2.1 was not compatible with 2.2 and an app was needed to backup before upgrading.
Does anyone know how I can access my backup file to get to my contacts which is in bm3 format. This appears to be password protected, when trying to open with winrar. If this is not possible does anyone know if I can go back to 2.1 then upgrade once I have all my contacts via the correct procedure.
Cheers in advance for any help
Hello, after rooting and attempting to flash ClockworkMod on my LG Optimus 2X (P-9999DW), I got stuck in the endless reboot loop, so I had to do a hard factory reset. I lost all my apps, but I had previously moved the contents of my phone's internal SD card (totaling 647 MB) to a folder on my Windows 7 machine. I'm really new to Android phones so I didn't know that one could back up apps through Titanium Backup. When I move the contents of the file to my phone, the phone doesn't recognize any of the old apps I had. I still have the 'Superuser' app from root, though. I had a couple of games with full save data in my 'backup' folder too. I'd love to get them back on my phone somehow.
Is there any way to view my app history from my Gmail account so that I can download them again manually? Or is there some program I can use to put the apps from the backup that I saved on my computer back on my phone? Please help a silly noob out! Thank you.
P.S. Ever since I did the hard reset, my phone's SIM card isn't showing up. Should I call my mobile service provider, or is it just a technical issue? Please answer!
TitaniumBackup should solve it...
maybe under me smarter,heuheuheu...
My SII isn't rooted and doesn't have USB debugging. I am able to connect the phone to USB to access files, and was able to back up everything with Kies, but I don't know how to access the text messages. My new phone is an S3 running Cyanogenmod.
I'd prefer to be able to access texts via PC rather than mess with restoring them to my new phone, but anything that allows me to actually access them would be useful.
sorry for your phone,
there are some programs which allow you to control your devise from computer via wifi and there is no root requirement but at least you have to be able to read the security code which appears on your phone which allows your computer to control it via wifi, these programs include kies, and AirDroid.
furthermore connecting through usb cable will allow you to restore your files but i am not sure about restoring the sms. moreover the best way to prevent these difficulties for the next time is using programs which easily sync the data including your sms in to cloud, such as jottacloud.

This is the S2 forum, Not S3.
Titanium Backup is able to backup SMS message without root access, atleast on my HTC One X anyway. If your able to do this you could then restore them on your SGS3.
It really depends on whether your screen is 100% broken, or if you have some visibility.
