BackupMenu is a bootloader-based OS image backup tool. It can backup images from the N900's OS and programs to the SD card or eMMC (MyDocs).


BackupMenu for Nokia N900 / Maemo 5


BackupMenu uses RootFS images that are compatible with Nokia's Flasher utility for easy restoration from a non-operating (i.e. bricked) state.


BackupMenu for Nokia N900 / Maemo 5


To access BackupMenu, simply reboot the N900 with the keyboard open. Booting the device with keyboard closed will skip showing the menu.

It can not be praised enough!!!! Very useful for us all, who do some testing and do not what to start from scratch if something goes wrong. One thing I miss dearly: There should be a password protection while the bootloader starts up. Without this any body who steals or finds the even generally locked phone can extract all data via USB!

Saved me from having to go through the torture of the standard N900 restore process several times already so I consider it one of the most useful and important tools existing for Maemo 5. In 20 minutes or so (both rootfs and optfs) and with just a couple of key presses one can restore the device to a backed up state, which is so much different than reinstallation of all packages with the standard Backup app. So this is a truly KILLER APP deserving the highest rating.

I like it very much. I had bricked my phone 3 times due to installing junk and had to reflash and redo all the settings not covered by the default backup utility. With this one i can freely mess with my phone and can restore to original state in a jiffy. [Rate: 9/10]
