First, I would of never of chosen the HTC Tilt 2 for myself but it was picked by my employer as the phone I should use. I wouldn't of picked it because it's a Windows Mobile phone and my experiences with Windows Mobile is "Don't Do It" They are slow, they drain your battery and windows has a hard enough time running on a PC yet shoving it into a small phone with a smaller processor and less RAM does not help the situation.

Anyhow I do not recommend this phone. It locks up at least once a day.

My attempt to improve my HTC Tilt 2 with AT&T.

First, I needed to load the Windows Mobile software onto Windows Vista (which is running in my Parallels session on my MacBook Pro). So I downloaded and installed the WM 6.1 from here from Windows Vista (its also for Windows 7)

Next, I downloaded the free PIMbackup tool which must be run from your phone. So connect your HTC Tilt2 to your computer via USB and on your phone you'll first have to unlock it, then select Active Sync on the phone, when prompted, continue without setting up the sync with outlook. All you want to do is move that PIMbackup tool over to My Documents so on your phone you can go launch it and begin backing up to your SD Card.
