just use the built in contacts application, it has an import/export function.
open contacts, menu button, import/export, export to SD card.
this creates a vcard file on ur SD card, and you can simply import from SD card once you have flashed your phone
easy as, i do it this way every time.
that being said, i also use my backup root for call logs, messages, etc so its probably worth getting it from the market too.

I use MyBackUp Pro and it works great. If you only want to backup your contacts to your SD card, I believe the free version (MyBackUp) works fine too.
I use myPhoneExplorer. This App sync with your PC.

After restoring my phone from being soft bricked, i try to install an app and it says there isnt enough free memory. My SD cards dont have anything on them besides what it needs to run the stock programs.
Any suggestions?

Here is what I would do. Dowload titanium backup,
Install Rom manager,
Backup your SD card
create EXT2 partition >> This will format your SD card
Then use restore missing apps option in titanium backup to reinstall all your apps.
Doing this will enable your phone to use SD card to store apps. Rejoice

i dont think that backs up everything though.
i want it to back up to a PC or something aswell, as the SD card is what i want to format
As far as i know MyBackUp Pro creates .zip files on the sd card.
So after the backup we could transfer this .zip files to the PC and "format" the phone?

Doas Titanium also backup my contacts?
Yes. You could backup everything to sd card, copy backup folder to pc and wipe everything. Then reflash rom, copy the backup folder back to sd card and reinstall titanium. Titanium is the most complete backup you'll get on your x10 till bootloader is cracked. Another method would be the custom recovery, but i didn't try it out.

Can't you just use root explorer to copy every single system file to your SD, then copy the backup from SD to your PC....???? I would imagine it would be as easy as copying all the files/folders in your system root folder.
MyBackup sucks dogs bollocks - it's no better than the one included...
I backed up using the included one and Titanium, and did a restore from both - seemed to get everything back on as required...
For Apps backup.. you can use File Expert. It backed up all apks installed to sd card...
Contacts u can sync with Sony Ericcson. For messages i dont have an idea...

Titanium Backup + SE Backup and Restore does the lot!
Can anyone give me a quick tutorial on how to set titanium backup up on my atrix, i had it on my cappy, but i just need to know really where the actual files need to be on my sd cards, whether it be on external or internal sd. the way it was set up on my cappy was kinda screwey. i did better just saving the files on my computer once backed up, rather than saving the just to my external sd. im having a hard time explaining exactly what im trying to do, so any input would be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!
edit: solution to backup to external sd:
go in to tibu> menu button> preferences> backup folder location> press back button twice> select sdcard-ext> then select the green "create a new folder"
titanium backup has its own site full of info on how to use the app. i would suggest going there and looking for the answers to your questions
As far as where your files need to be I don't really understand that part but if you want to know where the backup goes look like since our device is "unique" lol in calling the internal memory an sd card we can't set it to save to our actual sd cards but you can set it to go to your dropbox.
thats just my 2 cents

Copy and paste the TiBU folder to your external card or computer before flashing. Then after your done, paste the folder back to the Atrix's internal sd card and restore. I only restore user apps and not their data, restoring system apps/settings can cause problems.

When using Root Explorer on my Cap or Atrix or my roommates DInc there are 2 folders for SD Card, one has an "ext" indicating its the external card. The other 'SD Card' is the internal memory.
As soon as I get on a computer, I will thank you all, well except for whoever directed me to tibu website, j/k I've already been there though... I was just looking for real advice from real people. More device specific I guess... But that's all I needed. Thanks guys

You can't restore directly from Dropbox. The Dropbox backup is used to replace the files in your Ti backup folder on the internal SD card if they get wiped. If you lose the SD card backup, you sync with Dropbox in Ti, and it downloads all the apps back to your internal SD card, (the default backup folder).
I backup to both so I am covered all around. Works with the Atrix cos' I've had to use it.

its pretty much JUST like the captivate
/sdcard/titaniumbackup
which is a symlink to
/mnt/sdcard/titaniumbackup
there is no difference in that regard. if you want to save it all to the external SD you need to change the path in TIBU to
/mnt/sdcard-ext/titaniumbackup

Before I sent my phone off for repair I did a full backup of Apps and Data. Now my phone is back and I'm trying to restore but am unclear how to do this. In TB I don't see anywhere that allows me to choose to restore from where I backed up to. What am I missing?

I hope you still have the backups created by titanium backup with you... Because there is a very good probability that when u sent your phone for repair they formatted everything... If not
Open TB app, press the menu key and open batch option.
In the restore column there wud be an option to restore you apps.... If not then the backups have been deleted!!! You will have to manually install them again... Srry

TiB backs up to /mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup so you must have the SDCard you originally backed up to inserted or it won't know where to look.

From "Preferences", set your "Backup folder location" to the folder having your old backups. After that, go to "Backup/Restore" tab. Now, you can find all of those old backup entries. Either restore them individually or use "Batch" from menu.
That's it!
Perfect! That's exactly what I was looking for - thanx!

I'm not too sophisticated in all this stuff, not sure if/how to do this. I have a rooted Droid Razr Maxx, stock ROM (wanted to be able to tether without monthly fee). When I upgraded from my original Droid, I copied the sd and put the new one in the Razr. This sort of worked, but left the new 32gb card partitioned, with 8gb read as "sd card", the rear as "ext-sd card". The 8gb filled quickly, and I can't download much, even though I have a lot of space on the card. I have been backing up with Titanium Backup, hoping I can use it to fix this. I also purchased a Sandisk 64gb card, which I read (and it claims on the package) is comparable/formatted foe Android. Can I use the 64gb card, then put everything back with TB (and how)? Do I have to reformat the 32gb card instead, then get everything back on it with TB (and how)? Or do I just have to redownload apps, copy media to PC, then replace, without an easy route through TB? I'd appreciate any help, thanks.
Hi
Someone plz tell me how to move fb and whatsapp in SDcard. From Manage Application Move to SDcard option is disabled also in App2SD unable to transfer it.
Is it possible????It consumes a lot of space....
For moving apps those do not support to move in SD by default, you need root access on your device & then use any app such as "DroidSail Super App2SD" to move them forcefully to SD card.

Hi there,
Actually Questions shouldn't go in the General section..You should ask your doubt in the Q&A section....So,just have a look at the FORUM RULES.....Better luck next time

Thank you,

Moving facebook on sd card every time you open it, it will erase the data and you will have to repeat the account access.
If you have rooted device, you can use titanium backup to move them to SD.
The app has been moved to SD card, but i am not sure about data stored by these apps.
Data was still in phone memory, i guess.

Easiest way is to use cwm recovery..there is a option partion of sd card click that u will ask about the size,preferabaly give 512mb that it press ok ur sd card partition is over..otherwise use windows minitool partition wizard but u need pc to do it..just google it u will get the procedure to do it.. and one more thing ur sd card content will get erased so backup ur sd card contents to ur pc..

I reply here because I spent a lot of time searching through very old posts and trying outdated methods. I didn't know that actually today there is a very easy solution to move whatsapp media folder to SD card. It perfectly worked on my Samsung Galaxy A3 A320FL:
1) Root (I used twrp + magisk method)
2) Download "App2SD" (the original by Vicky Bonick; it's free) and follow instructions on how to create partitions
3) Use "folder mount (app analyzer)" feature, which apparently was not considered in the old posts in this forum, so I suppose it was recently added to Apps2SD.
It's like folder mount, but it's pre-set for some common apps, including Whatsapp. With this feature, you can successfully move Whatsapp media folder to SD, in one clic.
In my case everything worked fine. When I reboot I have to re-mount folder, but it takes one second (just open Apps2SD, tap Folder Mount, slide "whatsapp other").
