Original ROM backup

[brosen]

Hi, I just received my C860 from Dynamism with English converted ROM, unfortunatelly it is not 100% english, so I would like to test TheKompany, OpenZauris, or Cakco ROMs, nonetheless I would like to save or backup to Flash ( SD/CF ) the original ROM first, in order to be able to go back, please somebody can give me some hints how to do it ?, thanks

check out this how-to.  technically it\'s for doing a nand restore, but it\'s just as easy to to a nand backup.... on step 5, instead of selecting #10 (NAND restore) select #1 (NAND backup)

just make sure you have a CF or SD that is greater than 128mb... as the nand file itself is just larger than 128mb.  Also, it seems that the CF is more reliable than SD to do the backups/restores.

good luck!

PS... you can always email dynamism and ask them to email you a backup file for the 860... they did that for me with my 760 (I forgot to backup right away)
