    uff, that´s agood question...I seriously doubt that!
    But if it´s just about your contacts, you could sync with outlook first and then sync with old UI.

    What do you use Apple´s OS `?, Ubuntu,...ask here in the forum, you are for sure not the only one, who is not using Windows OS. At least you could sync calendar and contacts!

    I use osx and archlinux.
    The phone is not seen as a good sync device so with osx I cant sync nothing.
    Never tried a usb sync with linux.

    Seen some app on the chinese bbs which can convert new ui backups to old ones if I'm not mistaken...but you'll have to dig through the forum because I don't have the link.
