I think im going to reflash my N900s firmware
The web browser is completely screwed, it wont load any page & i've tried everything i can find, but to no avail

The thing is i dont want to lose all my apps, setting, pics, etc i have on the phone

Is there a way of doing a backup of things before i reflash so i can put them back on the phone?

have you considered reading the (f) manual?!?

won't answer to you because this question shouldn't be asked at the first place. the information is out there....

what user experience do you need? if manual says that xx, yy and zz will be backupped, how does the situation change with peoples experiences??

well, per requests here you go:

open file manager with your device
go to path:
1. n900 -> documents -> user guides -> choose your language and tap it.

2. scroll a bit, there is this cryptic "Back up and restore data" -title

3. ....


and the hardest part: maemo wiki
