I have MyBackup Pro. I can make backups of everything and save them to the SD card.
Wondering if it would *likely* work if I did a backup from the Fascinate nto the card, installed the card into the Enlighten (after doing a factory reset on the Enlighten), and then did a restore? The object, of course, is to install all the apps, media/etc, and settings that are currently on my Fascinate onto the Enlighten so I could pick it up and use it with little if any speed bump?
The system is different, the screen size is different, the LG has a physical keyboard and buttons, the LG and Fascinate have different layouts in the app drawer and who knows where else .... Are these enough to cause a crash? Or d'ya think it just might work?

If you do just the applications, you should be fine. The system settings, layout, etc would likely not work. I personally would not recommend you try to restore those. It'll bork things.
