If you use your phone's built-in backuper to backup your files before formatting (lets say the reason why you're going to format it is because of a virus) there is a possibility that the virus will stay.
So here is a better way: 1. Backup Contacts - Go in c:
\system\data\contacts.cdb and save that file in your MMC or PC. Alternatively you can use the
Backuper in the Downloads Section.
2. Bookmarks - Go in c:\system
\data\bookmark.db and save
that file.. 3. Notepad - Go in c:\system\data
\notepad.db and save that file
anywhere..
4. Messages - If you have them on your phone memory then just save the whole of the c:system/mail)
After formatting paste the
backups at the same place as
before.
