My Xperia X10 went away for a repair and as advised a made a back up using the standard backup and restore app. After a couple of weeks at the Vodafone repair centre my handset was eventually replaced. The replacement phone has 2.3 Android which looks good but how can I restore all my apps and contacts as I nolonger have a backup and restore app.

Thanks, I will give it a try. Not impressed with 2.3 so far :-(

I've got an Arc, so can't comment on 2.3 on the X10, but I've gone through 

1.6, 2.1 and 2.2 on HTC handsets, and can only say that 2.3 seems to be an

improvement, but that might just simply be down to the hardware.
