Nico, Thanks for sharing!

You are welcome Josh. Glad that it helped!

Quinn, I believe you are in BIS instead of BES. If you are i nBIS, then chances are you can resend your service book from the carrier page, typically carrier.blackberry.com. If you are on BES then you either need to reactivate your device or ask your administrator to push service book back to you.
Good luck.

Hi Calvin, what is your long and complicated way? Personally I do not speak for Acronis but my understanding (in fact most of us were sold) that UR will automate the restore from one hardware to another without requiring much effort provided that the drivers for mass storage are there. Most of the time it's not with new hardware and there is when injecting new drivers are necessary.

It makes sense only if you are willing to take additional time to setup a new hardware and copy all the drivers. For most of us, we wanted a direct restore to brand new hardware (without OS). The key is saving time and effort, but if you want to setup the OS, Service Pack it, and perform all the updates then capture the drivers prior to restore, that is possible but again it sort of defeat the purpose of UR. Don't you think?

Thomas, I think you can read Calvin's result here.

I just found out when researching the driver for the chipset.

Universal Restore from Dell PE 2650 to Dell PE 2950 http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=2...

At some point I am thinking Calvin's solution takes a lot effort and requires additional similar hardware. That, sort of defeat the purpose of having Acronis UR.

Glad it helps. Chee

Andy, great question. Those are default setting. Most company would want to keep for record and periodically archive them in order to maintain the drive space. Unfortunately this is part of our job to ensure it does not over blown your drive. Chee

It is due to the rescan schedule of BES.
