Good thing I got the n82 with the User Data Protection. Screw reinstalling all my apps every time I flash my phone!

Good plan for sure. Thanks to the fact that most developers don’t provide settings import/export however, it takes me significantly longer unfortunately. I spend 30 minutes + on IVCM alone… Then add the six and a half years it takes to transfer ~ 5GB over USB 1.1, and you’re in hell.

Aah, so you’re longing for UDP.

Personally, whenever I update my firmware I like to start from afresh. I hard reset before and after the update and even format my mass memory. I also have around 30 apps installed but it doesn’t take longer than 10 minutes to reinstall them all as I keep all my .sisx files in a folder on my PC.

Reinstalling about 50 apps manually thanks to Nokia’s bunk backup/restore process. Reapplying settings to all of those apps. Etc, etc. With as many apps as I use, I’ve never done a backup/restore on any handset without kernel errors popping up shortly after…

What? The process is already a 6-minute cake walk… Why’s it taking you so long???
