This is my first review so please go easy on me and don’t flame me until at least my second one. Since being appointed as a new writer I decided that I should start with reviewing some software that no one should be without, especially those who like to flash a new rom every few days or just want piece of mind that their data is safe.
PIM Backup is a handy little tool that will do what it says, it will backup important information that is on your phone. It will backup appointments, call logs, contacts, messages (email and SMS), speed dials, tasks and any custom files you define. There are two methods for backing up that can be chosen during the process. One method is to create a binary file that can then be used easily to restore, the other method is a text based file, that can be used to import into other applications like Outlook etc.
The other thing you can do is backup on a schedule, that way if something happens to your phone like you delete all your contacts in a fit of phone rage, a couple of clicks and you can get it all back without too much hassle.
I’ve used this tool recently when I flashed my rom from the standard AT&T rom to the Dutty 4/29 rom, and it worked flawlessly. I didn’t have to really do much but click ok a couple of times and it backed it all up, I just used the default settings. Restoring was just as easy once I had flashed my rom, couple of clicks and all my emails, messages and contacts were back like they were never gone.
The other great thing about this app is its totally free, and can be downloaded from Dotfred’s site the creator of this fine app.
Now some reviewers like to give out ratings, stars or thumbs up, I personally don’t always agree, I like this app, it saved me a lot of hassle when I flashed a new rom. However that is my own opinion, so I task you to download it, give it a try and comment on what you think.
