IMPORTANT: The RUU is designed to replace the current ROM image and to erase the partnership and all user data and programs on the HP iPAQ Mobile Messenger. It is important to read and understand the information in the Readme file included with this update BEFORE installing the software package. Use ActiveSync to synchronize your personal calendar, contacts, e-mail, tasks, and notes data with Microsoft Outlook on a desktop to save this information before performing the ROM update. After completing the ROM update, establish a new ActiveSync partnership with the desktop. The HP iPAQ Mobile Messenger synchronizes your personal data from Microsoft Outlook. Reinstall any user-installed software programs and additional personal data, if necessary. NOTE: Due to changes in the registry and system files introduced by the new ROM, the new ROM will not recognize a backup file that is generated using the previous ROM.
