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...

+1 for this
Titanium Backup + SE Backup and Restore does the lot!
Even just after 8 months of use my sd card feels just cluttered and that there's probably lots of useless files. What do you guys do to clean it up
Sent from E.T.
I delete anything I didn't put there. I have folders, MP3, Pictures, Videos, ROMs, if it's not one of those every so often I just delete everything. Anything programs need, they put back, but it eliminates all the junk I don't need. (I leave the "hidden" folders starting with ., like .android-secure)
back everything on sd card to pc and reformat...then just add back the stuff you want.

Do i need a sdcard reader to format the sdcard? or can I just do with a usb cable

You can do it with just the cable, however, some people have issues using a computer to format the SD card. Supposedly it's safer to format in the phone itself. I've never had an issue doing it either way though.

So... what should I backup? before formatting? Obviously any pictures/videos I want. I'm not sure how to backup titaniumbackup though. And then there's "update.zip" and "su-2.3.6.1+busybox1.19". And also any roms/kernels I will flash after. Not sure if there's anything else though.
Will i need to flash cwm through odin? or..

When I back mine up I copy everything, until I'm done and make sure everything is working. For titanium backup all you need is the titanium backup folder on your SD card, you should see your backups in there (three files per backup usually). You don't need the titanium backup stuff in the data folder.
After you get your phone back to a working state remove anything you don't recognize from.your backup.
I have a bunch of files that say: @@@@-30.eml, @@@@.29.eml, and so on. Any idea what this is?

I would assume that they are email attachments of some sort.
Thanks Gnomad. I am always hesitant to delete stuff for fear it leads to force closes or some other weird issue. Most of the files that remain are ones which appear a foreign language to me. With your help though, my card is a bit more clean than it was yesterday.

Do you want to just backup your sd card? If so all you have to do is plug it in and click disk drive and it will pop up as if it's a jump drive. Make a folder and copy your contents in that folder and you're good. Also HTC storage will pop up too, if you have anything in there back that up in another folder and you should be good. Just make sure to eject both and not just disconnect it.

I think MyBackupPro works without being rooted.
Will backing up the SD card backup my contancts and apps and stuff or will that all be on the phones internal memory?

No, it won't. But your contacts should be synced to your google account and you can just redownload your apps.
MyBackup kinda works without root, but not well.
So I downloaded titanium backup but when I back apps. It doesn't back them up to my external SD card but instead to my internal SD card, please help

Change the backup folder from Preferences screen
Yea I looked around online and I moved the backup file to the external SD. My only question now is if I get a new phone and of course the titanium app isn't on there, if I just reinstall it than it'll detect my back ups on my sdcard right?

Thank you, well i guess problem solved
Anyone else experience Titanium Backup saving backups on their device rather than the external SD? Is there any way to change this?
See last response for the Fix.
Go to settings and change the path to extSd.

On the Backup Folder Location screen there is only a Detect Button.
I am in the process of moving the folder to my exd SD then I will hit detect again.
Fixed:
I moved the TitaniumBackup folder from my device to the SD card then opened Titanium Backup and clicked Detect.
Worked like a charm.
sd swap
Is it due to an sd swap option perhaps? I had a simular issue, solved it right away, but found it odd.
SD card and SD swap do not work how I had hoped.
