Any last words before I do ROM update?

I am going to do my update from A00 to A04 tonight.
I backed up my contacts, tasks, notes and such with pocketbackup plus. I did a full backup the other night through Activesync.
Which one do I use?
Or do I use any?
Should I just run pocketbackup restore and manually install all my apps/utilities?

As you can see any help appreciated.

just make sure everything is backed up--i made the mistake of only backing up PIM, forgot to back up flex wallet etc, lost it all that was not backed up or synced with my computer.
Otherwise, follow the directions-mine went off without a hitch

Okay that sounds good.

What happens if I use pocketbackup and uncheck the system data but backup all of "my documents" / "email" / "personal databases".
And what about in System Data if I leave "program files" and "windows" checked, that should stop any registry files that may conflict with A04?

You may do best with doing a system backup with something like Sprite Pocket Backup.

That's what I am using but someone said that it may cause problems with the system registry, when I restore.

I used AS Backup & manually copied everything. So two backups for me.

Went fine though. Just BE PATIENT & read the docs.

Bah! I have yet to have any success with AS backup and for now I would only go with a third party back up.
