from the PM.

But Genie does safe unlock - on RAPIDO processors the unlock is done via code, so
you can not damage the PM. For RAP, the security area will not be uploaded if it can
not be correctly recalculated.

So the chance to kill a phone with bb5notp.exe is 0 %. Thats why full backup is not done.

The security area backup is just old feature, not removed for compatibility.

This is very useful information for new users. It would be an idea to include this instruction/post in your user guide.
