So I cannot access any of my files and resources on my G1 Prime anymore (via the PC). Using the calculator normally works ok.

So I formatted the G1, installed the latest firmware (21-04-28), and restored from backup - same problem - Prime reboots itself whenever I access it from the Connectivity kit.

Accessing a cleanly formatted G1 Prime from the Connectivity kit works ok, its only after the backup is restored that this reboot problem happens. I guess I'll have to rebuild my G1 prime from scratch by dragging resources from a virtual prime into a freshly formatted prime? I wonder how much I can salvage this way.

So this apparent bug in the backup/restore situation, together with the corruption of the Python App user space if you use certain Python syntax means that using this beta is much riskier than I thought.

And what is the behaviour without restoring from backup? I also have some defective Backups which I do not recover full. I open the zip file as thomas said and copy my programs via CK step by step. Sometimes there should be a problem with files from the root directory (e.g. settings, calc.hpsettings and so on).
