T9 Auto Backup and restore Now Here!

Thats Right! a T9 Auto Backup and restore app is now here.

Another Great T9 App from MoDaCo Member 'stevekay'!

Read Below:- and make sure you follow 'EDIT 2' at the bottom of the Quote when you install it.

I have created a new program - T9Monitor.  

Copy T9Monitor.exe into StoragewindowsStartUp and restart the phone or execute from SmartExplorer.  

This will monitor StorageApplication DataSystemmst9.udb for the addition of words. When a new word is added, it automatically backs up the database to StorageMy Documentsmst9.udb. This means that your backup is always up to date!!  

On startup the application will check to see if the database exists and if it doesn't OR it contains 0 words, it will automatically restore the backup.  

Please note that it was compiled using eVC 4.0 (all I have at home) and will therefore only work on WM2003.  

UPDATED: Now compiled using EVC 3.0 so should work on 2002 as well. I have also rearranged the code and changed the logic so that the Master db gets over written when there are no words in it. The backup gets updated when the number of words in the master is greater than the back up.  

This does have the side effect of having to kill the app if you want to upload a new db (if the number of words is fewer) - but it can be restarted easily enough.  

EDIT 2: Pagemakers has pointed out that as this is untrusted it needs to be run once so that you can confirm that you are allowing this untrusted code to run. Best way is to run it using Smart Explorer or creating a shortcut on the menu.

Hmmm well it's running in the background on my phone (2002) .. but I can't seem to find the backup file .. it's spose to be in StorageMy Documents ... but I've checked and I can't see it .. I've added a bunch of words after installing, so it should make a back-up ... (of course it's IPSMMy Documents in 2002 ... but I'm sure you've taken that into account! *WINK*)

Anywayz .. when I run the program it doesn't say anything, doesn't give an error or anything like that .. just starts running in the background, like it's spose to do!

Can you add a feature fo it to check at regular intervals and backup/restore as necessary.

Another thought, how about instead of overwriting one file with another, to merge the files - that way no words go missing.

haven't installed the ap (am just about to) so these comments may be irrelevant.

Also, if msmobiles is "currently banned" how has he just posted a message?!

Wow, this works, more than I can say for the T9 editor over at CoolSmartPhones Here at least it didb't work for me!!

Great app, but how oftern does it back up the mst9.udb file?

Or de we just re-run the programe before switching off the phone?

As the author of BOTH T9Monitor AND T9Editor I thought that I'd better put my two-penneth in :D .

Both applications have been updated in the last week and are posted in the later pages of the Erase T9 Dictionary topic under (device specific E200).

The latest version of T9 Editor is HERE.

And the latest T9 Monitor is HERE. (At the bottom of the page).

The T9 Editor released on CoolSmartPhone was the initial BETA release and as such had a few bugs in it and didn't support MPX 200 at all.

The latest version has now been tested by forum members on SPV, E200 and MPX 200 without too many hassles.

The T9 Monitor works on all smartphones so far, but a few people have come across weird problems which I am looking into :wink:

:!: As with all software that is a work in progress please ensure to back up the T9 database before using either tool.

PS: Any bugs/comments please do not hesitate to PM me...

what does this do?

An educated guess would be that it allows your phone to remember words input under 'abc' in T9 forever rather than being deleted every so often.

Am I right?

well for me it does, erm, nothing. I know I'm obviously missing something, but hey, that's what happens. Run the t9editor.exe, hourglass spins briefly then...nothing, nada, zip, zilch. Please, what am I not doing right?

It's not spose to "do" anything. The program just runs in the background monitoring your T9 file. When you add a word to the t9 file (by entering the word in abc mode in an sms) - the program backs up the t9 file ... and should this file be deleted or reset (which it does every now and again) - the program restores it with the latest backup it has taken!

Sorry, meant t9editor didn't do anything. the monitor program seems to be doing the job (well, no lost t9 words so far, instead of every few hours like normal). the monitor program has become a must-have - predictive text suddenly becomes useful again!

Ah okay ... hmmm works fine on my comp!

There is a new T9 Editor for the PC out tho .. check the software forum, you might have more luck with that one!

I presumed t9editor was for the phone, not the PC. Did I make a fundamental error here?

Yes ... T9 Editor is for the PC ... T9Monitor .. for your phone.

Mem leak with t9monitor? I've had a few serious phone crashes recently too, which I was meaning to have a look at when I get time; sort of presumed it was t9mon causing it.
