General :: App / Data Backup Options That Work Well With 4.3?
Oct 15, 2013
After upgrading to CM10.2 nightlies, I noticed that neither of my purchased back-up apps function as intended anymore.
ROM Toolbox Pro fails to backup phone data (such as SMS, accounts, dialer info... etc.), and Titanium Backup gives me an "insufficient free storage space" error any time I try to back up my apps. Now, I've already tried pretty much everything with Titanium Backup outside of installing SuperSU. I've changed the backup directory to every combination of emulated/legacy and sdcard0/legacy... etc. The only thing I can think of is that it doesn't play well with Koush's SuperUser app, but I don't want to bother removing it for SuperSU because it's integrated into the ROM nicely.
So is there any way to get Titanium Backup working properly with 4.3 ROMs? I'd like to use it ideally because the update.zip function really makes it the best backup option out there when it's working right.
Otherwise, are there any other backup apps that can backup apps/data/accounts/SMS with 4.3 ROMs without problems?

When I try to recover my apps using Titanium Backup's "Extract from Nandroid" feature, it says "Could not find any data in this TWRP backup"
The files in my TWRP backup folder are
data.ext4.win000
data.ext4.win001
data.ext4.win002
md5 for the above
recover.log

I have titanium backup pro. I want to know can I backup only apps data? I mean when titanium backup pro performs backing up are there any option to excludes apk file backup and only backup apps data?
I think it's useless backup apk files, I can download them from Google play store.

Since this is a popular program, I thought someone would be able to answer a few quick questions on this before I purchase it:
1) Is there the option to backup to the SD card (which I am assuming is where you would want your backups to go, so that you do not lose them in case you need to do a hard reset?
2) Is there an option to back up all data onto your desktop, so that if you lose your phone and need to buy a new one, all the data can be put back onto the new Droid?
3) Are there any things that you CANNOT back up with this program? Will all the apps that you downloaded from the Market get saved as well as all the data that you entered into these programs? (like will all the notes that you entered into AK Notepad be saved, as well as the program itself?)

I want to flash some custom rom on my one x. I really like "Simpsons: tapped out" I'd like to continue playing it. My problem is, that I'm not sure if a Nandroid backup will be enough, since the game is syncing all the time and I don't know where the data is saved. transferring this app to another rom??? What do I need to do??? Is it even possible to properly backup this game?

A friend of mine just rooted the other day using the Root for Dummies thread, (the same as I used months ago), and loaded up Kayosfroyo 35-1. He is now attempting to flash nonsensycal 8.2 Black. Well he downloaded the rom but when he tries to power up the phone using volume up it just boots up regular. He doesn't get the options for Nand Backup Reboot Flash etc. Volume down works but he gets a different set of menu items.

I'm currently using Titanium Backup and it's impossible.
The reason I want to do this is because games' APK take a lot of place, and I already have them backed up on my PC. I just want their data to save my progress.

i'm looking for an app that allow to back up app data ONLY (like progress of game, setting,...)
i use titanium backup and it backs up app + data which is unnecessary and takes time, for example: you have a 100 MB game on your tablet, you want to back up the game progress, so you can upload to dropbox, on your phone you just need to download that data backup and continue playing on your phone,with titanium backup you have to backup all 100 MB of app + data and upload that 100 MB to dropbox and you waste your time and even money (if you're on 3G/4G)so is there any app that back up app data only? while titanium back up let you restore app + data or data only, i can't understand why it can't let you back up app data only, maybe the dev thinks people always back up everything, not just app data.

I'm going from an HTC Incredible 2 to a Galaxy Note 2 (both UNrooted). I have several apps that I don't want to lost my data for-high scores, levels, etc-and I can't figure out how to transfer all of that. I tried My Backup Pro, but it has to have root access to transfer data (It'll move the APK files, but really, I can do the same thing from the google play store!). I am so frustrated right now, because I love my new phone, but I REALLY don't want to have to start over on some of my apps. (I play several RPGs...lots of hours in those!) All of my apps came from the google play store. how I can transfer my data?

She have a Samsung Next with Gingerbread 2.3.4; Yesterday we activate a new mobile contract with 250mb of internet usage, but She was not able to use web application (Internet, Google, whatsapp, etc).
After some search i want to try to reset application and phone settings, but, using a command found on web, I launch a system restore, and all data was erased.
Fortunately all Contacts was restored, but all Calendar entry and all Notes was deleted, and She never perform a backup.
It's possible, to find Calendar entry and Notes in some folder (on phone or on SD ) to restore it?

I have 2 tablets, both rooted. Flytouch 5 (Tab-1) and Ainol Novo Elf-2 (Tab-2). Tab-1 has built-in GPS while Tab-2 doesn't have it. But sadly wifi/ethernet on Tab-1 isn't working since I resetted the device for the first time.
I have titanium backup installed in both tabs and I have sygic maps installed in tab-2 (which doesn't have GPS) but I can't download maps to tab-1 because it requires internet connection that I dont have on that tab. Now what I want to do is to make a complete backup of the sygic application + map data/additional files from tab-2 and restore it to tab-1 so that the app doesn't ask me to download even a single byte of data.
I tried normal titanium backup but I was asked to download additional data on Tab-1. I know I must've done something wrong because I'm new to titanium backup.

Normally when I get a droid phone, I use a guide to unlock / root, and then use CWM to make a backup of the stock from before I start using custom roms.
No for the first time I have a phone, which isn't supported by CWM, so I looked for nandroid tools, but these don't seem to be supported either. How should I proceed in this case? The phone is Sony Xperia Z.
please note: this is a crosspost of [URL] .....

I'm having problem with my Atrix to boot and before attempting a more drastic solution I would like to make a backup of my app and data.
I'm normally accessing via ADB, I can see the files on Android Commander.
Is there any way to backup the same way as it does for Titanium Backup then restore the data?
I use a stock ROM, version 2.3.6, and my bootloader is locked ('ll only unlock when finished warranty)

I'm going to flash (format) my Samsung Galaxy S2 (both the external sd and internal sd) . My phone is not rooted. But there are some app's data that i want to backup before formatting.Those are some of my games' progress,Mozilla Firefox's history,bookmarks etc,Opera Mini history etc. , and the songs i tagged in Shazam.How am i supposed to do that since i know that you can't backup app data such as game progrees if your phone is not rooted ? Also i can't access those apps,whenever i open them they constantly crash,this started 1 week ago,that's why im gonna flash my device.

I had a Nexus S. Got some games and got pretty far in them. I did not root the phone. Now I have an N4. I want to pick up where I left off on the new phone with regards to the games.. let's say, They Need To Be Fed as an example.
Now, neither phone is rooted, so obviously this complicates things, but it is not impossible. I can easily use Carbon to backup my app data and restore it onto the new phone without requiring a root. However I want to explore alternative methods.
So in a perfect situation, I would like the app data (and/or the app itself) to be backed up into one nice file that can be saved onto the new phone and then opened up to put the saved data where it needs to be. I'm not sure, but do .apk's contain app data as well? Could I save my current progress on TNTBF along with the app itself into a .apk and then extract the file on my new phone to continue where I left off?
What Carbon does is create a folder specific for the app and its data, which is a bunch of files I'm not familiar with, and requires Carbon to restore the data itself. Although this app is phenomenal and will be my last resort, I'd like something that doesn't require the app itself to restore the data. I used to use something called Ultimate Backup I think. When I selected to backup an app, it would save a .apk to the sd card. I'm not sure if it was backing up just the app or the app data as well, but if it did save the app data then that would be optimal.

I broke the screen/digitizer on my phone the other night. I got a new replacement phone through my mobile insurance. I was able to create a backup of my old phone through Kies since it's only the screen that won't work. However, upon further research, I'm seeing that Kies does not back up apps or app data. It says it does, when I selected everything while I was backing up but it won't let me when I try to restore it to the new device. It will only let me restore the contacts, pics, music etc.. which I already have on my micro SD card.
I've seen that people use helium backup but I am unable to do anything on my old device other than plugging it into a computer. I can't install helium on the old phone. Will I be able to backup the broken phone just with Helium Desktop?

When I had my iPhone, I can do iTunes backup to my Mac and when I have a new iPhone, I can do restore of the apps and data from the previous iPhone. It restore everything, including apps, the apps data, email configuration, etc.
For Android, there is "Backup My Data" under Settings --> Accounts. Does this do the same thing as the above?
For example, I tried to do this:
1). Check "Backup My Data"
2). Associate this with one of my Gmail account
3). Get a new Android phone and... I don't see "Restore" in the same Settings.
I DO see the settings to Backup My Data in the new Android phone, but I am afraid if I checked this, it will overwrite the data in Google's server
I am trying to figure out if Backup My Data can re-download all the apps installed in the older device, including the apps data. I don't care about email or contacts, since those are synced to my Gmail accounts.
