IT’S A “INTERNET BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY” SITE!
That comment by Swapnil is spam…goes to a “internet business opportunity” site.
Thanks for heads up, I have just removed it.
Hey guys, it’s also worth checking out http://www.mobyko.com - it’s is all about ease of use and making mobile back up as simple as possible - which is something we can all relate to! It’s compatible with more than 200 handsets and has a function for i-Phones as well. Well worth a look.
Thank you, will definitely check it out.
Try out mShare and mHome built by Guiang Corporation. I tried it myself and was able to share and backup everything on my cell phone.

You really should check out Dashwire. It is a completely free service that will backup a windows mobile phone. It’s very easy to use and backups everything.. not just contacts and sms. It will upload all of your pictures, videos, email conversations, you name it. I was just pointed to it a few weeks ago, and have been trying to spread the word on this great service. Give it a try!
I downloaded this SMS Backup tool to backup my mobile Phone SMS. It works well fro me.

Unfortunately, none of these seem to backup a phones settings - i.e. the SMTP, Bluetooth, Ringtone settings etc.
I would gladly pay for a service which could backup these settings.
Any Ideas folks?
I also come across with the same problem.But thanks to a software “Godsw SMS Transfer”,it helps me well to deal with this case.
Maybe you can have a try: http://www.godswmobile.com/download.html
And here is the step by step guide from the page of this software:

But it just fits for system “Windows Mobile 5 system” or “Windows Mobile 6 system”. So you’d better check your mobilephone system before you use this software
Goodluck to you
