Would be nice to hear from another user who has not taken a Backup

I'm assuming you flashed to PR1.1 or else you would have taken a backup as suggested when upgrading to PR1.1

I'm wondering if taking a backup with password protected would make any difference.

Could those who have not taken a backup try?
