Can the new XS++ 3.0 BETA NOW backup not just the GDFS & the file menu structure?
Thanks.

No, backup not possible yet. But you can browse the phone fs, delete and replace files with XS++3

Not to go up against you ... but I think it can, unless I'm reading this wrong. I do have a Backup folder with a 103KB file named "K790_35220801xxxxxx_GDFS_BACKUP.bin
I do hope that I was successful.

that's only a backup of your gdfs. It will get you out of trouble if you burn your eerom, but the actual phone FS (internal file system) cannot be backed up with either FAR or XS++ (db2020)

Thanks very much - the batch file didn't work at first - I think it's because the directory I ran the file in contained spaces. However, it worked well when I used the suggested backup directory, though I think in the instructions the line:
"replace all occurances of "c:\\k800-backup" with "" (empty string)"
should read:
"replace all occurances of "c:\\k800-backup\\" with "" (empty string)"
as a last step I also replaced all occurences of '//' with '/'
One problem though - the phone did not copy the 'ifs' directory - is this normal for everyone else?

My apologies for not seeing the earlier post - the IFS directory does indeed get copied when in is specified in capitals.
One major bug that I have found though with the script is that any files containing spaces DO NOT get copied by the phone to the backup directory.

great job....works like a charm..
thank you guys for sharing this...i started modding my phone immediately

as i saw this thread,couraged me:P
THANKS.
@paul
yes you are right,file containing spaces do not get copied...that's a bug but not that major i believe...because none of the vital system files have spaces..
the files that do not get copie are just media files i think,correct me if i'm worng..
