If you just rename such backups to *.pbf from *.exe, then install Pocket Backup, they will be perfectly usable for full or partial restores. Version 2.01 repaired this, and all the EXE backups I've tested have been se;f-extracting, as promised.

Gerard, you were right. I was using the older version. As a little test, I installed the new version, backed up my device, then did a hard reset. The restore went flawlessly and within minutes, my 5455 was humming right along. Thanks for the heads up! |
I, too, have upgraded to 2.01 after reading this. I'm not going to do a hard reset to try it; I'll just trust the two of you. Thanks! |
