Thread: restoring apps with BBSAK?

I just installed OS .685 to my storm 9530, also added .758 hybrid by lyricidal and the 6.0 files from willyboy. everything went smooth except for all my apps and themes. i backed them up thru BBSAK and its showing that they are saved, but when i go to install them, it says phone may need to reboot"ok" and then it says complete almost immediately after. But still, no apps or themes. Am i doing something wrong, or is there another way i can load these files. hopefully someone can help me out. Thanks everyone

1st- make sure you are using BBSAK 7.1
2nd- If you don't feel like DL and re-installing BBSAK then just let it sit there after the "complete" message pops up. It'll run its course. (That is a sort of "glitch" with BBSAK that was fixed with 7.1) You should be able to watch your BB re-boot after a bit.

Hope this helps.

I always select the install cod(s) option and then just hold the ctrl key and click on each cod in the bbsak backup folder and install that way. I have only gotten the restore button to work one time..

Thanks guys! So I tried letting it sit for 30 minutes and nothing happened, but installing them one cod at a time did it. Though it took forever, it worked. And after all that being done I'm gonna downgrade my OS to .591. Lol I will most likely have to do it all again. Oh well. I'll be busy. Thanks again!

Instead of doing it one at a time.. If you hold the ctrl key and click on each cod that should highlight them all and install them all at once?!?

Back them up using the change device wizard in DM instead of using BBSAK, that way is far easier.
then when you reload them, each one is a separate COD (unlike using BBSAK which attaches them together) it is much easier. DM also places an ALX file in the folder it backed up to to help put them back.

If you need specifics on how to do it just let me know.
