SOLVED!! Tailoring Standalone Backup File To Not Wipe Out Google Voice???
A_Friend:
Am extremely frustrated by XMPP/SIP conversion of GV. Can't figure out how to save my settings, connect to Obitalk portal, fix GV, and then restore all the other settings, other than manually one-by-one, including my 48 speed dials.
How does the .xml backup file work? Does it wipe everything clean and then restore its settings, or does it only overwrite those fields that are included in the file leaving anything else untouched?
If the latter, has anyone worked out how to just remove references to ITSP A and SP1 and leave everything else alone? I want a file I can "restore" to my 202 after getting GV working again, to put everything else back.
Ideally, if someone had made Obi Expert compatible with standalone backup files, this wouldn't be necessary.

Try a different order:
1. If not already done, register OBi device to portal.
2. Import backup file into Expert mode.
3. Delete the SP you will use for GV.
4. Configure GV on the vacant SP.

I tried that. Obi Expert "Restore" doesn't seem to like backup files made in standalone mode, if the "Restore" function works at all anymore. I literally made a backup, registered on the portal, loaded the backup via Obi Expert, and... nothing. It says it worked ("The specified configuration has been imported successfully."), but there's no settings. Nothing from the backup file shows in either the portal or the device's standalone management webpage. Am I missing some additional step somewhere?
By the way, what's supposed to be the latest Firmware? I seem to have 3.2.2 (Build: 5897EX) now, which I'm not certain but might be a slightly later version than the one I got yesterday morning which did work.
Peer RTP Address on calls is back to the one that didn't work anymore with the XMPP setup from two years ago:
74.125.39.26:19305(relay)
Is the Obitalk portal broken now?

I'm making several changes to my OBi110 and I imported a backup to OBiTalk before enabling OBiTalk Provisioning. After OBiTalk downloaded the config, the digit maps and routes had the defaults on the device. The config on OBiTalk was changed and the modified settings had a red ! next to the Value. I had to uncheck the OBiTalk Setting box to the right of the modified values and Submit then the values on the device were changed. I did not have to do this to the ITSP Profile Name and some other values.
I don't remember having to this in the past and believe this is a bug.
Edit:
When I defined GV on SP1 in the recent past, OBiTalk modified several digit maps and routes (SP1, Phone Port and OBiTalk). I can understand SP1, but not the others.
I just did the opposite. I deleted GV from SP1 and defined a SIP trunk. None of the above digit maps or routes were changed.

A XML file will only change the setting specified, so I think you can do what you want (remove SP1 from the backup and import into OBiTalk). I copied a small (maybe 12 lines of code) XML sample post (not the actual file) into Notepad and modified it. When saving the file make sure you DON'T save it as a text file. This is my only experience modifying XML files and hesitate to give you advice. Maybe someone else can help you.
There are several examples of XML files on the forum.
