Take offline contacts backup for Lumia 630

Hi,
I am a newbie here. I know that my contacts and calendar items are automatically updated online. But, I want to take an offline update of my Lumia 630 Dual Sim contacts to keep it stored offline. Please help me do it. Thanks

You can download the transfer my data app. It has an option to save contacts to sd card

You can follow the instructions in the page you linked from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109 to transfer everything from your old phone to your new one. If you only want to transfer contacts and you still have your old phone (or if the contacts are already on your computer) you could sync the contacts as described in: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12317
Also, if you still have the old phone you could sync them via iCloud without using a computer: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

NO CONTACTS BACKUP FOR MAC USERS

Skype's Help pages breezily state that no backup is ever needed. Cuz Skype server cloud bla bla. You see.
Oh. There IS a backup procedure described, for Windows only. After the declaration that backing up is for sissies (Windows users? Sorry for the dig...), the Help article does then say clearly that NO such procedure is available for Mac.
We have been through a terrible experience in which my wife's Skype account was suspended -- for reasons never clear to us. The verification failed repeatedly; long chat sessions and multiple re-tries later somebody apparently realized this all was to no purpose and provided a path to reactivate her account.
BUT.
The loss, had that not been possible, was of her contact list. I am worried about the same in my case, because not only are some numbers uniquely stored there, but a whole world of personal habit takes me back to look at Skype to retrieve many numbers. And then, usually, to use Skype to call them. Skype should be ashamed for not providing for the very real eventuality of the loss of a contact list. Safely archiving them on its servers does the user no good when Skype also makes access to that person's account impossible.
So this is a call to Skype to get on the ball. Not much more to be said. This forum and third party internet discussion areas are bursting with sad and -- dare one say it -- very angry (with justification) tales of woe. We add ours, here, implicitly.
In an email reply to the Skype person who did at last provide the means to re-access the account, we added our thought that the disconnects and wasted time were, if nothing else, a perfect advertisement for Skype's competitors, especially for KEKO (keko.com) which provides similar services at similar prices, and adds functionality such as making a simple local call and having that be processed via KEKO to connect with an international number anywhere in the world.
I hope that by including the direct reference to another VoIP provider, one which offers superior service, may goad Skype into action. If Skype will fix the contacts backup issue I will remove what I have written about another provider; and continue to use Skype as a principal channel.
That is, until Skype also fixes the horrible and wasteful, and -- for us -- ineffective (until someone apparently stepped in personally to set the account straight -- but who knows -- perhaps we were just lucky and that may as well not have happened, either?) manner it has to re-verify accounts. That has to see a revamp, too.
My wife and I have manually created an archive of our contact lists. Just everyone will be able to profit from our magical method, here it is: we made screen shots on the Mac of every 'page' of the contact list; that is, scroll down, hit Ctl + Shft + 3, hit fn + down arrow, and repeat until all 'pages' of contacts have been saved as screen shots.
Then, open in Preview, select all, and Print, exporting as a pdf; which can just be saved and/or printed for a hard copy archive.
As an embellishment, having Photoshop, we also opened the files in a batch in Adobe Camera Raw, where it is possible to batch process to enhance clarity on-screen, and to crop the screen shots en masse so that in the pdf the hard-copy printout can be made on fewer pages.
It's a KLUGE.
So is SKYPE, folks.
Good day.

Unfortunately, this solution doesn't work on a Mac. I haven't been able to find a solution that does, so I'm putting one together. At a minimum, if you're familiar with grep (or have Text Wrangler, which allows grep-style replace and search), here's how you can convert your .pbb file to a text file that can be imported by Address Book:
Unfortunately, I've had to mess with this extensively to avoid the forum's formatting. Hopefully it works OK.
delete header ('CELLPBKb100' in my case)
\[\^a-z\^A-Z\^0-9\] -> null
(\[a-z\])(\[A-Z\]) -> \1 \2
(\[a-zA-Z\])(\[0-9\]) -> \1\t\2
(\[0-9\])(\[a-zA-Z\])-> \1\r\2
Import to Address Book. Define 1st field as 'first name', 2nd field as 'Phone(mobile)'. Uncheck 'Ignore first card'.
Note -- I used this piece of software to find the file format: http://www.versiontracker.com/php/dlpage.php?id=14667&db=mac&pid=25642&kind=&lnk =http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gwenhiver.net%2Fdownloads%2FAddressBookExporter-2.1.2.dmg
I'd love for a few people to send me .pbb files so I can make sure that my solution is universal. You can reach me through the email link on this post.

Microsoft told that all the Lumias will get denim update by the end of February but till now there is no denim update for Lumia 630 dual sim in India.

should be soon hopefully as other regions in Asia and Europe have already received the update. sit tight its coming.

Lumia 630 update.

When will the denim update start rolling for Lumia 630 in India??? And when it will happen that applications will be allowed to run in background. Please don't make the OS with much limitation. At least think for the buyer's..

Noise when using headphones with new Lumia 630

I've got a new Lumia 630 today and when I tried to use headphones with it at first phone did not recognize them ( I still have to reconnect them sometimes) but the main problem is a hiss noise when phone produces sounds. It could be music, video or keyboard clicks, whatever. I can hear it even when loudness of music player is set to 0. Is it known issue? Or is it problem with my phone? I tried another headphones and have the same problem, maybe a less noise.
Sorry for my English. Need your help!

Hi wtfwithmyphone,
Welcome to the forum!
Does it only happen when using the phone with headsets? Do you also hear this noise when the audio is played via loudspeaker? What are the models of the headsets that you tried with your Nokia Lumia 630?
Note that the Nokia Lumia 630 supports headsets that have American Headset Jack (AHJ) ports. Using other types of headsets may cause performance issues, like background noise and audio quality distortion. This link will show you some of the headset models supported by the Lumia 630: Accessories for Lumia 630 - Headsets.
Let us know if this information has helped you.

Trying take whole offline db backup : Error no free space

Hi,
In our Quality system I am trying take whole offline db backup ( with out redo logs). In the log file found the error saying there is no free space in the Drive:I:\orace\SID\sapbackup.minimum 27246.161mb( i think it is 27GB) required. But actually total drive (I) space is 59.5GB and free space is 59.3GB. Suggest me how to resolve this.
windows os, oracle 9.2.0 SAP: ECC5.0.
one more thing... our QAS db is running in No Archive log mode. In db12 I do observe that overview of redolog files not yet backed up are 300.when I schedule only redolog backup in DB13 i am getting error message no offline redolog files found for processing. but in db12 showing 300redo log files. How can I take redo log backup. Is this bcoz of db is in Noarchive log mode. plz suggest. In initsid.ora file parameter is showing logarchive_start= true. but in SQL> i queried the log_mode , i got Noarchive log. Is there any way to change the db to Archive mode.( if we bring db from open status to mount , we can change the db log mode) without downing the SAP.
Please suggest.
thanks

You can take the backup on External Backup device like Tape Or Disk. To do so you have to change the below parameters in init<SID>.sap profile file.
backup_type = offline
backup_dev_type = Disk (Default---> Tape)
backup_root_dir = <Path For Backup Directory> (Default --->$SAPDATA_HOME/sapbackup)
OR Only Change the parameter
backup_root_dir =Give <drive:\directory> path on which the required sapce is available. (Default --->$SAPDATA_HOME/sapbackup)
one more thing... our QAS db is running in No Archive log mode. when I schedule only redolog backup in DB13 i am getting error message no offline redolog files found for processing. but in db12 showing 300redo log files. .
As your databse is running on No Archive Log Mode (As per SAP Best Pactices your database should run in archive log mode) the offline redolog files are not generated so dont worry about this error.
Experts please correct me if I am wrong.

As suggested before change the Archive Log mode using BR*tools & Restart is require to take effect.

Whether to take Offline (or) Online backup

Hi
      I am planning to apply support pack 14 now I am in SP13 before applying SP14 I am planning to take Database backup.
      What is recommended whether to take Offline or Online backup,
      Can any one explain which the best way to take backup is.

Hi,
Taking a successful backup is must(suggested) before Support pack implementation.
However online/offiline anything will be ok.
As online backup is taken to minimise the downtime for SAP application.
If you can get a downtime you can go for offline backup..
Say if you can not get downtime then go for online backup.Given you are running in archive log mode.During this performance will be little degraded.that is why suggested to run online backup in off -peak hours
You can go for a online backup before night(starting of SP implementation) and before starting the support packs do a log switch and then do a archive backup and make a note of that log number and start the SP implementation.
In case of problems when you have to restore the backup restore the backup and recover until the log number which we generated just before the SP implementation...
Thanks.

Good luck

So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

Option for cpio an offline DB Backup

Hi, I like to know which options are available for performing a clean (no fuzzy bits, no problem !) cpio for an offline database backup, you know: datafiles, redo log files, control files, etc.).
On Unix you would code a script with a combination of find and cpio commands. This would also apply to Linux. I need to know which specific options of cpio (-ocv ...) are require for this clean and safe backup.
Thanks ....!

Sorry. I do have the error
cpio: xxxxxx "valor demasiado grande para el tipo de datos definido. Which translate to something like : value to large for the specified data type.

Is it necessary to take RMAN backup for ASM

Hi all
I also know we need RMAN to take backup for ASM . But i also seen its possible to take backup by using dd command itself on ASM . Why we need RMAN rather than this method . What is the specific reason we using RMAN,

its possible to take backup by using dd command itself on ASM Very bad idea.
1. You'll run into the classic "fractured block" issue when attempting a recover or reading a block after the restore
2. RMAN can be used to
a relocate individual datafiles,
b duplicate / clone database,
c restore to an alternate server,
d copy / move from ASM to filesystem
e verify for corruption
f generate reports on backups taken
None of which dd of ASM will do reliably (depending on the skills of the DBA/SA).

Does Time Machine conflict with Crashplan offline backup for Macs?

Hello,
Has anyone experienced Time Machine on Macs conflicting with Crashplan offline backup for Macs? I would like to run both on my iMac... Time Machine for local backup to my E-drive and Crashplan for a backup to their servers.
Thanks

This article may be of help to you:
http://support.crashplan.com/doku.php/articles/time_machine
I also want to point out that CrashPlan also supports local backup.

How to schedule offline backup for SAPDB or maxdb

Hello,
I have stand alone SAPDB server ( without SAp system) , I wanted to know how to schedule the OFFline backup for SAPDB.
Can yo tell me the command to schedule the offline backup .
Command should do like:
1) bring the DB to admin mode.
2) start offline backup .
3) bring the db up after backup done
Regards,

Did you read the available documentation?
> 1) bring the DB to admin mode.
dbmcli -u control,<password> -d <database> db_admin
> 2) start offline backup .
dbmcli -u control,<password> -d <database> backup_start <medium>
> 3) bring the db up after backup done
dbmcli -u control,<password> -d <database> db_online
Basically you can do the same when the database is online, all backups are consistent, there's no difference in "offline" or "online" backup as with other databases (e. g. Oracle).
