Sashimi Compatible
Auto Updates if new version is released
******
and....
You can add options you would like to see on the backup list by posting to this thread.
*******
Whats new?
version 2.0 now adds the ability to add or remove items that you dont use.
Example, if you dont use Garmin, you have the ability to not include it in your list of backupables.
However, I only have options i use or once used. So if you would like options added, please tell me what they are and i will add the option right away.
My Inspiration was....
Well I created a program that was originally intended to backup my Wisbar Advanced Desktop theme to my Sashimi folder.
Since I do alot of tweaking on it, I always wanted to have the most recent changes, incase I had to do a hard reset.
Then I started thinking.
What about a "Restore" option.
this would allow an undo option.
Example) you deleted a page by mistake, or you totally messed something up.
just restore your theme and your back to where you were.
***Notes
1) This is ApptoDate compatible
If you do not have ApptoDate installed, it will install it on its own.
2) Your storage Card must be called "Storage Card"
3) This is Sashimi Compatible
However you do not need to use sashimi for this to work
4) You must have mortscript installed
You can find that here
http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=download&action=view&entry=65
5) This DOES NOT overwrite your themes, this will first delete the theme completely, then copy your theme over.
This is done so that your not adding, and adding, features to a theme that do not belong.
Example, You deleted your page games.
but your last back up had the page games.
If We did not delete the entire theme, the page games would still be there plus your newest theme.
6) This does not copy over images, as people store their images in various locations.
9) The more themes in your THEME directory, the longer it will take.

ANY suggestions are welcome
How to use,
Simply run the program.
Chose your selection.
it will add everything to your sashimi folder.
If you dont use sashimi, it will still back up to your storage card.
Now if you do a hard reset, sometimes your contacts wont show.
Simply run the program, Restore PIM and voila, your contacts and calander are restored.

i m interesting by this apps... a backup files using mortscript...
i m a noob in mortscript but i can help you to integrate Graphic in GUI if you want...
unfortunatly i dont think you can do a gui with mortscript
But maybe you can create an simple application with basic GUI using mortcsript ?
you can write this in C#, C++ or anything to create an WM apps !
Re-Vamped for Opera 10 beta 1 passwords - logins
v1.13
checks to ensure you have good battery strength before proceeding
1.14 full backup and full restore
added sms backup
1.16 added misc info about your phone, like storage card space, system info, misc crap.
1.20
added automatic update feature
added confirmation of selection
had to remove sms backup.
but am working on it.
found it wasnt working
v1.26
Added option to run backup every 12 hours.
Does this silently.
Option is to turn it on, or turn it off.
figured 12 hours was best twice a day.
wanted to give you guys a heads up of a coming update.
I am adding the ability to customize this program to suite your PERSONAL needs.
For instance, if you dont use WAD you can have it so it will not show up on the backup list
or if you use Opera and only opera, well thats all you will have for choices.
And you can always add items and remove items.
this will allow me to add thousands of possibilities
Facebook
any GPS program
Wisbar
opera
PIM
the list is endless
since you will be able to add the things you want in your back up list of choices.
The new update will auto download just like all the other updates.
so keep an eye out for it.
also if you have options you would like to see on the list of possible items to backup / restore please post them so i can add them to the customizable list.
2.0 is out now

Hi I like the look of this App, having had a gander at Sashimi, it seemed silly having to back up items before reinstalling with Sashimi (i.e. wireless monitor data etc in the App data folder), I could just copy & paste after changing roms.
I am new to the rom world and have tried one of the custom roms found on here and would like to try another, what has put me of so far is the setting up from scratch again, could you include folders like App data (also in this folder is the weather locations).
The stocks and shares would also be nice and finally, I have tried the Sashimi XML files for e-mails and made a right pigs ear of it (I assume it was me and not the prog) even though trying several guides and attempts but progs like spb backup re-install them a treat, could you include these settings in the backup. Many thanks for listening.

It works fine for me!
Just finishing off the tweaks (including GMM, and S2V which has an update!).
BTW, run AppToDate soon after your first startup, to make sure everything is up to date!
going to give this a try
thank you!
Problems installing
Great job, l3v5y.
To my taste, best and easiest ROM to use in iPhone style.
Unfortunately, I had problems flashing your iProphet v3.6, and it happens the same now. After flashing process, my S200 got stack on Clownfish image and no bottom worked, so I had to take the battery off. On HR it customizated instaling several cabs (s2v, s2u2, s2p, wwm107, icontact, battery status and opera9). I installed gmm and 2sv fix cabs and run AppToDate.
After that I have same error messages when starting: "The files dciNbar, iLock2, LAUNCHER and starkey cannot be opened..." and many applications dont work (appart from some broken links), almost all Tools.
I hope it could be fixed .
Some notes, just ideas:
1- I missed Thumbcal (launched from iLauncher) and varanusvincents iPhone (ish) styled shelres.96.dll.
2- You downgrade Opera cab from v9.5 in iProphet3.6 to v9.
3- I use PCM keyboard0.14 (iPhone style) and any hibernate application to save program memory.
4- Other icon for AppTpDate, for example the original with gears in grey.

1. Please wait a WHILE FOR THE " FISH " PAGE TO STAY, if it is really a halt,
2. just pick the bottom reset button, and then will work normally.
3. that usually caused by mis-pointed shortcuts, corrupted files in Extended_rom or a bad flash.
So, you may need to reflash, too.

ThumbCal has gone comercial, although I may be able to use the free version.
I can add in PCM Keyboard.
I can use the other Shellres.96.dll file.
I haven't included Opera, as it takes up lots of space, and the latest beta build disables notifications!
I can update the AppToDate icon!
If you want to configure what is launched by the launcher, you'll need to go into the registry.
Under HKCU\Software\l3v5y\iLaunch, you can edit the paths. They are numberd from the top left, in rows (eg, 4 is Camera by default) and the bottom row are iDock, again numbered left to right.
If you have issues after the flash, please Hard Reset. This will clear previous stuff, and make sure the new ROM becomes the full ROM.
bug?
First, thank you for this fast rom. I'm now testing, and noticed the calendar icon has no link. Is this a bug? I've hard reset and flashed a few times, same result. Also, my SD data was wiped after flash! Luckily, I have a backup from last week... Thanks again!

If you can edit the registry, go to HKCU\Software\l3v5y\iLaunch, and change the app2 path to "\windows\calendar.exe". I can upload a cab when I have the time!
Waiting days ago and there is no fixed version
me too waiting for the fixed version. But maybe he's got real work to do or may be he's trying newer builds as 20275 or may be even 20290
Maybe I have a real life!
I'll work on it soon, but I've had things to do...
People were having too many problems with this, so I decided to stop the project, sorry everyone.
--------------
This small tool is not trying to competing with the excellent M2D Customizer by MPenguin14!
I just made it because theres currently no versions of M2DC that works with the latest M2D.
And, even though M2DC is open-source, I dont know how to programm in that language, so I tried to mimic what it does with flash + mortscript.
It enables, disables and rearranges the tabs:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
To use:
--------
Make sure your device is QVGA!
Backup your system first, just in case.
Install Flash 7, if you dont have it already.
Install Mortscript, if you dont have it already.
Install the attached CAB.
Run my app.
Click to enable/disable tabs, drag to reorder them.
Red text means the tab is disabled, note that some tabs NEED to be disabled for M2D to run!
The listing is strange, as is in 2 columns, Ill have to find a better way of reordering the tabs in the future (any ideas?).
Save your settings.
Wait a couple of seconds, M2D will restart itself.
Enjoy.
What's new:
------------
Reads saved tab settings.
Change main softkeys.
Change Launcher tab grid (rows X columns).
Added M2D restart shortcut (usefull for skinners).
Notes:
------
The arrow is NOT pointing to cancel, it just means the list on the right continues from there.
It does not use or read any of your previously changed xml data, for now it always starts from its own default.
It creates a backup in \Windows\M2Dr\backup of the last XML changed, just in case you need it back.
You can install the app anywhere, but it always creates some temp files in \Windows\M2Dr that take about 200kb in the device (backup included).
Some tabs NEED to be disabled for M2D to run!
If the app is stuck in a screen reading "If you can read this you need flash 7", guess what, you only have flash lite. ;P
No widescreen version, my SWF to EXE doesnt support it, sorry.
Installing old M2D skins wont work, because some files arent the same.
I wouldnt advise more than 6 columns and a reasonable ammount of rows on the LAUNCHER tab, I have no idea of its limits.
Dont use this with the old M2D, it WONT work.
Old M2D(ct) thmes wont work also, they all have to be remade.
I attached here a QUICK-FIX, in case your M2D cant load, just copy the file into the windows folder and restart M2D.
How can I help?
---------------
Do you know a way of converting PNGs to JPGs with a simple command line? Or maybe a simple EXE that converts all the files in a folder.
How can I enable a TSK theme without going thru the settings?
How can I create a list of all the files inside a folder and its subfolders? (The FOREACH command on Mortscript only reads one folder)
To do (if M2DC doesnt get updated first, hehehe):
-------
Install new skins with a new extension name.
Change background (real M2D background, not just the HOME tab wallpaper).
Backup/restore XML settings.
Browse button for the softkeys choice (dont know if its possible)...
Nice,
Thanks for your work
Thanks for your work...
This is something i was waiting for a long time.
I hope you have succes...
I will be around this threat
hey twolf great app, no surprise it came from you
and in terms of ordering the tabs would it be possible to add a scrollable list, just an idea
Thanks, I wanted to do a horizontal scroll tab, but am having a lot of bugs with it, also we dont see all the tabs at once, and that makes it hard to order...
Updated v0.2:
Now to work on the skinning option.
any way for this tool to be able to add links and shortcuts to the internet tab in the future? great app twolf!! all your work is mind blowing

You have your previous XML on Windows\M2Dr\backup just copy it back to the windows folder...

Yes, it messed up my M2D too. And I'm using version 2.19191432 as cooked by Miky6682 in his ROM (I believe this is the new version you talk about). And btw, I had only rearranged the tabs to begin with.
Copying back XML from Windows/m2dr/backup also did not help. You admitted yourself that your M2D reFLUSH does not take into account previously edited XML and creates its own backup point. I had to restore from the XML I had manually saved earlier.
Any ideas why this could be happening? M2D reFLUSH could be a fantastic tool if I can get it to work for me.
The problem is that mortscript cant "read" XML files properly, so I had to separate the xml into severall parts to be able to rebuild it with my changes.
You can see it on \Windows\M2Dr\part*.txt
Its separated into all those txt files:
Part 1 is the image list
Part 2a and 2b are created by my M2Dr flash file on save, its the tab list and order. Its separated in two because flash cant save that many characters on a text file) some characters are incorect but mortscript fixes them.
Part 3a is the end of the tab list and the beginning of the launcher settings (I moved it to the top so that it was easier to change).
Part 3b is the middle of the launcher tab settings.
Part 3c is the end of the launcher tab settings and the rest of the hole XML.
So, for now, to use M2Dr, all you need to do is make sure the file \Windows\M2Dr\part3c.txt is represented the same way in your XML.
:/
Tricky, but it will work.
I am using 2.1919.1432 as cooked by Miky6682 too. I am having the same problem. After I enable the "Launcher". The M2D has no longer work. Is there any wany to fix it?
I added a quick-fix in the first post with the original XML.
Just copy it to the Windows folder.
Sorry about that.

quick fix didnt wrk for me. u have to hreset now. id advise ppl to stay clear of this app till u sort this bug out.
No ned to hard reset...
All this does is change the xml I attached and the softkeys (IF you changed any).
You did extracted the xml from the attached zip, copied it to your Windows folder and resetted, right?
If that didnt fixed it, you can always reinstall M2D, or simply remove your softkeys settings with M2DC.
But this really shouldnt be necessary, the xml fix should resolve everything.
:/
All this app thouch is the xml and the softkeys, nothing more.
I did tested it before releasing it, I know it will only work on QVGA for now, but that should be the only problem.

Hey, no need to be so alarmed. As twolf explained, this "app" does not make any irrevocable changes. It is just a user friendly and convenient interface for editing the HTChomesettings.xml file of Manila 2D. Alternatively you can use some utility like Mobile Notepad to manually edit the xml file yourself. But thats a complicated procedure and twolf's M2D reFLUSH makes it easy for even newbies like me.
Secondly, this forum is all about developing new apps and utilities.... and testing/feedback is an inseparable part of development. If everyone "stays clear", then nothing would ever get developed.
well i am now going lose all of my data, so i will say "stay clear" so that other ppl dont suffer the same fate, the quick fix does not work and i am now screwed. dont av a go at me for being angry, im the one who is inconvenienced not you.
I am truthly sorry for your data, believe me that this was never my intention with this app...
The most that it could do of harm would be to stop M2D from starting, nothing that wouldnt be fixed easily, or at most by reinstalling M2D.
What exactly happened to your device?
Maybe if I can understand the problem better I can fix whatever this tool did or stop working on it at all... :/
Sooo... could you please explain in detail what happened to your device?
Launcher fails to change anything
Hi... First off... Fantastic. Simple and clean application.
Only thing is I cannot seem to adjust the Launcher. I set it to 4 x 4 to no avail. The only thing that happened was the icons seemed to spread out a bit but remained 6 rows and 3 cols. I tried to change anything with the same result.
Any ideas?

MichelDiamond has given us such a wonderful tool in CHTS 2.30. Of the many functions available in the application, Layout Switching is an amazingly powerful part and it seems to be relatively unused, with the exception of file backup. BHSInterceptor and I have been successful at changing our phone themes on the fly from such popular themes as Touch of Glass to Sencity. All without having to install a cab on our phones. The key to this switching are XML files that are saved in the windows directory when you install CHTS. I will upload copies of these files here for you to look at, along with some additional ones for other tabs and applications on your phone. These XML files can be added, removed or edited as you need for your themes.
CHTS Layout Saving Options
In the CHTS Menu, there are a couple different options that use these XML files for saving. There is Full Sense Backup, Layout Saving and Baseline Saving. The Full Sense Backup and Baseline saving are both there as a fallback, in case you need to restore your phone to a previous state.
When saving your layout with CHTS, there are several options to choose from. What exactly you want to save will determine which method you will use. You can save a "Standard Layout" or an "Extended Layout". Both methods will save your CHT settings, the difference is that "Standard" will only save the items associated with your Home Tab, including all widgets and add-ons. Extended will save items for all Sense Tabs, this includes everything that would be saved with the "Standard". With either one of those layouts, you can also save all of your start menu icons. One other option you will see there is to save your "CHT(E) Settings Only".
When you first install CHTS on your phone, I recommend you first save a Baseline and then save an initial Full Sense Backup.
Baseline Saving: This is the most basic Layout you can save. Baseline will save the same files that are defined in the XMLs for the "Layout - Standard", except it won't save any of the quicklink information.
Full Sense Backup: This is the most complete Layout you can save. Full Sense Backup will save ALL manila files in your Windows directory, in addition to all other files defined in the XML files. With this method, all of the manila files will be zipped and stored to save space. This compression happens on the fly as you save the Layout.
Layout Saving - Standard: This will save all of the items from your Sense Home Tab. Including the following: Widgets, Clocks, Quicklinks, Freelinks, Positions of all of them, configuration,... All xml files that are CHTWidget_**.xml will be backed up here. This would be the method to use if the only thing you are themeing is your home tab.
Layout Saving - Extended: This will save all items saved in the Layout - Standard, in addition to items from other tabs defined in the XML files CHTTheme_**.xml. In the release of CHTS 2.30, this includes most of the standard sense tabs. All xml files that are CHTWidget_**.xml and CHTTheme_**.xml are backed up here.
In the CHTS 2.30 release cab, the following XML files are included:
CHTTheme_BasicWeather
CHTTheme_Calendar_Tab
CHTTheme_CommonFiles
CHTTheme_Email_Tab
CHTTheme_Home_Tab_Subs
CHTTheme_Internet_Tab
CHTTheme_Messaging_Tab
CHTTheme_MusicPlayer_Tab
CHTTheme_People_Tab
CHTTheme_Photo_Tab
CHTTheme_Settings_Tab
CHTTheme_Stock_Tab
CHTTheme_Twitter_Tab
CHTTheme_Weather_Tab
CHTWidget_Basic
CHTWidget_BasicHometab
CHTWidget_CHTS
CHTWidget_TabSlider
The attached zip file contains all of the CHTTHeme files listed above and also includes the following tab files:
CHTTheme_Documents_Tab
CHTTheme_Facebook_Tab
CHTTheme_Footprints_Tab
CHTTheme_Mode9_Lua
This zip files will be updated periodically as I add more xml files and add file names to the ones that already exist. The version number will be the date on the file. I will be going through some available themes to verify that they work with CHTS when using this group of files. The goal is that if you install a theme and want to change back to where you started, you will be able to use CHTS to switch back and forth.
CHTS XML Files
The XML files for CHTS are lists of files that should be backed up. These can be any files in the "Windows" directory on your phone. These XML files can be added and removed from you phone and you can change the files listed in them as you see fit. These files can also be a great way to figure out what "manila" qtc files are used for the gaphics on most of the sense tabs. We spent a lot of time going through each tab so that we could layout these XML files, so they are also a great starting point for anyone who wants to skin sense.
An example of one section in the XML files is:
<AnalogClock
Description="Analog Clock"
SubDescription="Clockface and hands"
analogclock ="20F62884_manila"
hourHand ="0AB9C3F4_manila"
minuteHand ="4BDFBA48_manila"
secondHand ="2A87D392_manila"
ClockDot ="7126E342_manila"
analogclocknight ="3C87827D_manila"
hourHandnight ="5CCDF1ED_manila"
minuteHandnight ="5E305741_manila"
secondHandnight ="4B1CC00B_manila"
ClockDotnight ="6294D3BB_manila"
Co0kieAnalogClock_mode9 ="1E1A6CCD_manila"
LuaScript_HomeAnalogClock ="1EC5924B_manila"

How to for the users.
A basic step by step of how I change my Layouts
1. Copy the XML files from post 1 to your Windows folder. This will add and update the XML files from the original CHTS install.
2. Perform a Baseline Save, a Full Sense Save and then save your current layout extended style before doing any switching. I usually do all three after each flash of my phone. This way I know that I can always go back to where I started.
3. Copy one of the pre-built themes from below to your _CHTScheduler folder on your Storage Card. Or, install your favorite theme cab files to change your phone.
4. Once these new theme files are on your phone, you can tweak this layout to what you like and then save it as a new Layout that will include all of your CHT settings as well.
Once you have a couple Layouts saved on your SD card, you can use SwitchGUI to change between them.
I will expand on these steps with some screen shots. Also, please give me some feedback and questions so I know what isn't clear. It is a bit tough to start writing, since I have been doing this so long I take for granted how easy it can be.
Also, if you have a theme you like and want me to either setup a folder for it or at least check to see if it is fully switchable, just post a link in this thread to the theme and I'll check it out!

Tools For Theme Switching
CFC GUI by Chainfire
First tool I will list here is CFC-GUI. This tool will allow you to look at, identify and edit all of the qtc image files that are saved as manila files. For more explanation, see the thread here. You should also check out the version of this program that I updated to include almost all of the image files found on the newer Sense 2.5 ROMs. You can find that in this post here.

Ber, you're back! Sad to say, I got bored with the lack of development on the WinMo and I bought myself a HTC Inspire 4G. I still have the HD2 sitting here, but I have not even powered it up in a couple months now.
Yes my friend, I know how you feel.... I´m thinking to get me a new set atm, a Flyer, a Sensation and a small Wildfire S. Guess it´s time to move on to the dark side, but with Sense
Probably will get them for x-mas, so I´ll be playing around for another month. Take care and "read ya"

Hey, you take care too. I'll see you over on the dark side, I am just starting to get a feel for how Android is set up. But it is all still so new, I am happy with it. I am sure I'll get the itch at some point to dig in and change stuff. Later.
Okay so some of us at The Evervolv Project have been working on an app that will take care of your bloat issues with sense roms, no matter the rom. This tool has been designed from the ground up to be geared towards sense rom developers & power users to be able to customize the app easily and fit their needs and roms.
Currently this is in preview "deep alpha". What does this mean? Well, we wanted to release a preview to users and rom developers so they could get a feel for where the app is going. This is going to be an ongoing work for quite some time, depending on interest generated. With that being said let list some of the key features, and go over what we're currently working on.
Rom developers seeking to include this in their rom, please PM me and we can talk things over and explain how to customize the app to your rom/users. This application will be open sourced, free to use by anyone and everyone. Take the code and make your own app. Decompile the app and change all the information to suit you (actually this is preferred). We'd also love input for the application from rom dev's and power users. Downloading previewers, feedback is definitely requested... but please hold off on post's referring to bugs right now. This is currently being worked on, and many of the issues will be taken care of shortly. With that said, if there is any java developers/programmers that would like to join the effort, feel free to PM me also.

Much more...
Rom developer/power user can have a remote xml file downloaded by the app and used to populate the senseless apps, and removable apk's.
Manifest xml url is definable via settings (menu > Settings)
Download folder is definable via settings. (requires app restart if folder is not already made, will be fixed next release)
Currently planned features:
Rom developer/power user can have a remote xml file downloaded by the app and used to populate the senseless apps, and removable apk's.
Currently only apps on the /system partition are support, apps in /data/apps is planned.
Currently only the apk for the desired app is removed from the device, removal of the app's data folder is not touched, leaving behind the app's userdata. Removing this data is planned and in the works.
Refined GUI, currently this is more of a mockup than a final product. (monochrome yuck)
Currently only qHD devices are supported, wvga device layouts will be taken care of shortly.
Custom tab design (currently using the android supplied example).
More options available to be user-definable
Much more...

Can't the same be achieved with titanium backup? Albiet not as easily understood or straightforward?
Don't get me wrong, I think this is a great idea, and I'll probably use it as well. Just trying to get clarification.

You're right, titanium backup can do what you're wanting. This app is by far not done yet. The idea behind it is to let developers give you the chance to remove what you want, instead of removing it for you. I'm also currently working on another tab that will allow you to download specified files (specified in the xml) and either install them (apk's) or flash them via recovery (reboots the phone after downloading the zip). This allows rom developers to give you certain flashable options and not have to include them on the sdcard (taking up space).

In that way, it sounds even better. It'd be awesome for rom creators to include this for the "extras"

App Data Manage Tool is a tool for Windows 10 Mobile devices to create backups from current state of apps and games, and restore them at a later time, or to another phone, or to your phone after a factory reset.
Although Microsoft introduced some APIs to backup apps into OneDrive, many apps still don't use it (Hill Climb Racing, WhatsApp, are you listening? )
This tool helps you to create local backup archives from any of your apps and games; then you can copy them to your PC and then to any phone so you can restore that archive.
Additionally, you can reset the state of apps, which is almost the same as reinstalling them, but is faster and also it can be done on some system apps (which you can't reinstall them)
Your phone must be interop unlocked. Here's a quick how to (for Lumias except x50 series):
Download Interop Tools by Gustave M. (ARM version) and its Dependencies from here and copy them to your phone.
Set your phone to Developer Mode (from Settings, Update & security, For Developers)
Tap on each of Dependencies from File Explorer, then tap on Interop Tools appx.
Open Interop Tools from app list, go to "Interop Unlock", tap on "Restore NDTKSvc" and then reboot your phone.
Open Interop Tools again and go to "Interop Unlock", now tap on "Interop/Cap unlock".
(For x50 series and non-Lumia phones, the steps might be different. search for it)
After you Interop Unlocked your phone, installing App Data Manage Tool is easy.
Just get it from the download link below, extract the ZIP and copy its contents to your phone, and tap on the appx from File Explorer to install. (you might need to install Dependencies first)
Download App Data Manage Tool Beta
See and contribute to the source code on GitHub
The interface is easy to use, look yourself

Can't backup old apps (xap) games like :ac pirates, bridge contructor etc
Thanks for this, unfortunately I think I can't test this on my Lumia 650, because of limitations ?, but if I find a way I'll let you know.
Greetz,
What about restoring backup after when new verion of an APP has been updated during the cold start up?
How about reinstall all old apps after hardreset?

Hmm, seems like can find 8.1 XAPs (Silverlight apps), but not 8 XAPs. I'll take a look to see if I can figure out a way to back up those apps too.

I tried but failed to register packages from installed files. For now you can install apps from Store after hard reset, and then restore their data using this app.
I mean, launch ms-windows-store://navigatetopage/?Id=Apps, where apps are those with backupped data.
thank for this i will to try it

Hmm, in that case user needs to tap on each app and install it from store one by one, but might be better than nothing afterall. I'll consider this for the next version

Is that app (xodo doc) installed on SD card? or internal storage? What's your phone model?
just tried it with one app, works fine. gonna add this to my tools. thx
any chance that the app list gets saved? and maybe lets say it searches only every few days again completely (and ofc with a manual button)?
Please

its a 925, so no sd card and tried 'reset app' even on note+ but that also started crashing i.e not opening at all but when i restored the backup (did it earlier) note+ was working as expected.Guess something is wrong with 'reset app' mechanism
this based off appdata manager from wolf for wp8.1? or better support /capabilites. anyway to use the back ups from that app on this one?
congratulation !
one word:
congratulation !
waiting this exploit to my 950 (interop unlockable ?)
