I have been told by that you will lose everything that you have entered, eg only things left will be what comes in it as default.

and I got told to do the backup myself.

Yes!!! Lopio, I forgot about that, anything on your SIM will be fine as they dont even take it, they made me keep mine, but that was cool as I was going to put in my backup phone anyway.

got it upgraded to R7A finally.

Everthing was still on my phone. Not one piece of info was missing. All pix, tones, notes... ... ... I was so happy because i couldn't afford the equipment to backup my info.

@dazbradbury

yeah, i got it done at the CPW in belfast and EVERYTHING was still there. They did say to me that everything would be lost but no.

Also i did check to see if the had indeed upgraded properly.

All was safe
