Is there a way to Ghost my N1 to Restore on another device?

Kendoori · 03-24-2010, 08:48 AM

I mistakenly ended up with a T-Mobile specific N1, that will be going back to HTC and replaced by an AT&T one. Wondering whether I can "ghost" the device and preserve setup on restore on the new AT&T device when it arrives?

Unless you have access to the proper software to read / copy...

I think it will be easier said than done!!

Yes that is an interesting idea, you could use a combination of Astro file manager and Lookout to backup everything but the settings to the SD card then pop it into the new phone, re download astro and lookout and restore everything ?

Not sure how the nandroid backup works, maybe you could export it and then import it onto the new phone ?
