How do you back up your pictures, misic, games from your cell phone?

[Star*]

I have LG Venus (LG 8800) and LG Chocolate 8500 from Telus.
Googled around but couldn't find anything about how to back-up your data from your cell phone. How do you back up your data (pictures, misic, games and videos) from your cell please?

There has to be a pc suite software to do this.

Alternatively doesn't telus offer a back-up service?

This feature imho is VERY important for all cellphones...and frankly none of the last 10 cellphones I've had have any issues with this.

Good luck.

No, telus' backup service is only for address book backup.
Googled but didn't find any application ... I know some RFDers here are using the same cell phones from Telus so really want to know what are you using for back-up your data.

You could buy some software to do this, DataPilot makes backup software that is compatible with your phone, you just need the USB cable for your phone or a Bluetooth-enabled computer.

It's not what I would call cheap, it's $29.95 right now.

Thanks but seems the DataPilot doesn't support LG8500 or 8800.

The LG Venus and Chocolate support microSD cards and has support of using the internal memory as a USB mass storage device, so you could either copy all of your data to a microSD card and then copy it to your computer or use the USB cable that came with the phone and see if you can drag it off.

thank you for the info! yup, I can copy the music, pictures and videos to the microSD card now (didn't know that before) but how about the games I bought from online and want to copy them to a new phone?
