After that I may change ROMs and restore everything without compatibility problems?

Anyone else tried this method to back up everything? Not sure I understood: if I follow this method (I am on 0626 working pretty well) and update to 0705 will my settings, apps, etc, be the same on the new system?
I find painful having to install everything again (even with a backup app) and setting up the tablet again, plus passwords, etc...

Thanks.

Thanks for posting this TimeWarp.

A word of warning though, if you use the "-apk" parameter, it takes quite a while. I just tried it to see what it backs up, and on the tablet I have got about 340mb internal storage + 920mb internal SD Card, so about 1.26Gb, but the backup file it created is 5.373Gb, and it took about 6 hours.

I'll do another backup without the apk, and see if that works.

I'm trying to fix the no camera working problem I have with Double Stuff V20.

Thanks, that exactly what i need before playing with unoficial rom !

But unfortunatly, i'm not able to make ADB recognize the device

I already face this sort of issue with another device due to the android sdk installation & usb driver that can be very sensitive.

I will try to reinstall everything.
Do you know if it's better to turn on the usb storage function on the device?

bye

edit:
I've reinstalled manually adb driver ( see adb driver for windows )and now it's work. I've made one backup with -all and another one with -apk -all, both very fast.
I've read somewhere that restore will not work if there is blank password, and ADB connection was better for me with usb storage activated on the tablet.

thanks
