Patrick I’ll make a youtube video for you in relation to the app listings. It’s doing it on both my Wave phones.
However, the speed of copying and fetching times are what I’m interested to help resolved first. I tried copying a folder using WaveBackup and got 4 error messages, saying a particular file could not be copied. I then fired up sTune and it copied the files fine, and took a fraction of a second to do so.
In end, I’m hoping WaveBackup will be ever better than sTune, but right now the speed differences are major.
sTune doesn’t fetch folders at all. So am wondering what the purpose of this is in WaveBackup? Using the "AppEx" folder as an example, in sTune’s you can right click, select and copy the folder. It then immediately starts copying files. WaveBackup when you do the same, it then fetches all the folders, then starts copying. Then ontop of that, the errors copying files as I mentinoed above that sTunes doesn’t produce.
What info can I give you to help things out? or should I just youtube me using it and then you can see the errors, and other things in action?
Hi Patrick. Am playing with your new version as I type this out. Glad to see there is now an Abort button.
It’s faster than your first version, but I have an idea that maybe would speed things up when one wants to dump/copy the whole phone. How about adding a mode where it will fetch and copy at the same time. That way it doesn’t have to fetch 1000 folders first, then go back to the beginning and start copying. So the copy would happen right after a folder is fetched, then the next folder is fetched then copied etc. This would seem to be a quicker way to copy the contents of the phone. Otherwise WaveBackup has to navigate to each folder twice in order to make a copy. First to fetch it, then second to copy it.
At first WaveBackup runs happily, but it seems the longer it is fetching, the slower it gets, the more memory is used, and the cpu usage is at 100%. What happens with the fetched data? Is it retained only in memory, and thus the more you fetch the slower things get? or is it written to a log file, and then dumped from memory so that it can fetch quicker.
The copy function is indeed slow once it does start to copy a file. Hooking into the Windows Explorer copy function might not be such a bad idea, as then it will also copy blank folders too which I’d like to be able to do.
Another quick note, when listing apps, it takes a few runs for it to display the app names correctly. My first few times, it only picked up Ashpalt 5. So I just clicked it again and again and finally it found all the app titles. When it didn’t find them, it would leave the name blank, plus the whole entry would be coloured red as well.
I’m using a Wave I (8500) btw 🙂
Hey adfree 🙂
The error text above is from the program crashing when I hit Fetch All. It was about 4-5mins into fetching when it crashed.
So you cannot copy/delete a file until the entire phone has been fetched? It would be nice if there was another button that did both. That way you could just dump the entire phone contents with one click, and walk away to make a sandwich.
Am trying again to see if I can get through the fetch process, but so far the copy/delete functions are greyed out.
EDIT: Hmm, just spent 25mins when my computer’s cpu at 100% which WaveBackup ticked over fetching the folders and files. Very slow with each folder taking about 3 or more seconds. At this rate it would take hours to fetch the phone. This needs to be sped up, otherwise I’m not sure how one can use this program. I still havn’t been able to get to a point where I can copy anything off the phone yet.
Thanks Patrick. This looks like a nice improvement over sTunes which is a bit dated now.
I was able to connect my phone to Wave Backup, and wanted to try using "Fetch All", which I take it copies all the files from the phone to your computer correct? Are the copy and delete functions not active yet?
I got this error when trying Fetch All, and no files were copied sadly.
