    Hey Everyone-

    I was having issues with my BB on Monday. It would boot up after pulling the battery, but I couldn't select anything and actually use it...then it would shut off. The stickers on the battery and phone were fine. I decided that I would upgrade from 231 to 250. I backed up my BB and proceeded with the upgrade (I think). Same thing happened and I couldn't even check my BB to see what version was installed, so I'm not positive the upgrade happened.

    Yday, I went to Tmobile and they replaced it for me. The phone they gave me had 114 on it. When I got home, I clicked on Restore on DM. It loaded which 231, but all my apps and themes are not on the phone. The texts/emails/contacts/calendar all seem to be fine.

    Can anyone help me?

    Thanks,
    Vanessa

    Backup and restore is for your OS and databases. It doesn't backup applications, or themes.

    Your themes and games are still on your old device.

    The one that is turned in. There's a guide on these forums about how to back up 3rd party software and themes... if only I knew where it was...

    Don't feel like you are the only one that has done this... it happened to me once a few months ago... now I run this backup at least once a month... it doesn't make backups of Themes, but luckily all my themes are self created.
