Filed under: , , , ,



Many of us change our phones regularly.


The phone world moves on quickly and with carrier subsidies, upgrading to a new device is often cheap or even free, particularly in Europe. While physically transferring your phone number to the new device is usually as simple as swapping in a new SIM card or getting the device activated by the carrier, migrating data can sometimes be a real chore – particularly if you’re switching to a different type of phone.


With the arrival of Android in the Smartphone space and it’s continuing growth, this is a pain point that is being felt by many users who are switching to Google’s new baby from other Operating Systems such as Microsoft’s Windows Mobile, Nokia’s Symbian OS or RIM’s Blackberry OS. Thankfully, there is a solution if you are in one of these camps!


Sprite Software, makers of ‘Sprite Backup’ have just released a Beta version of their ‘Sprite Migrate‘ tool into the Android Market as a free download. Sprite have a very good reputation in the mobile space, and rightly so. Their products are relied on by millions of users worldwide, shipped by carriers on a number of devices and Sprite certainly have a glowing pedigree!


Sprite Software was founded in 2001 by two former employees of Binary Research, developers of the well known Ghost software that was sold to Symantec in 1998. Any computer technician that has been in the business a few years will tell you how vital Ghost was to their toolkit, and how infallible it was!


How well does it work? For me and my test device, it did exactly what it said it would… everything made it across intact!
