Default anyway to do a complete phone backup to your computer?

Just in case something crashes the phone and I have to do a Master Reset, it'd be nice to not have to re-install all 3rd party software, and redo any registry tweaks and settings.

For a complete backup, including registry...Sprite! Lite version is $20.

Looks like the "lite" edition doesn't allow you to backup to your hdd, only the SD card...that probably isn't a big deal, I guess.

When you do a Master Reset, it doesn't erase the SD card memory, right?

has anyone done a selective restore using Sprite? if not, is there a way to delete files that you dont want to restore from your back-up file?

i had problems with my moto q9h, not connecting to internet after succesfully getting co pilot to work using Modaco's gps port activator. AT&T tried to help but couldnt and had to do a master reset/clear. When i tried to restore, it has the same problem - no internet connection - i'm thinking it may be the copilot and the gps com activator - so i want to get that out of my back-up file before i restore... is there a way?

thanks all...
