Default upgrade frome bb 8700g to bb 8820

Please Login to Remove!

I briefly searched for this but it came back with a whole bunch of hits.

Can I use the backup function in DM and backup my 8700G (with 4.5.0.x) and then restore the options and settings to my 8820 (4.5.0.x) ?

Sorry if this has been answered multiple times... I did at least search and review a few!!!

... that should work.. just make sure to re-send your service books after you're done restoring...

There's no harm in resending Service Books if you feel you need to.
