[Q] Any backup utility that preserves app names? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm looking for an app that will backup my installed apps while preserving the app name and maybe the version number (if possible).
I've used many "backup" apps but they all backup the apps with weird names such as com.xxxxx.xxxx.xxxx.
If one of my apps is called "App2SD v1.2.3" then the backed up APK should have that as a file name. I don't mind if the version number is missing from the file name but it is an advantage if it is preserved.
Does anyone know of any apps or PC software that can backup installed apps and preserve original name?
Thanks

I found it: File Expert
Edit: File Explorer is buggy and won't save some apps. Does anyone know of any other apps?

Using Windows Explorer to share files over WiFi?

Hello all,
Is it possible to use Windows Explorer to view my files on my SDCard over WiFi? Just so I don't need that USB Cable to share my files, I use WiFi file explorer at the moment, but that's a web-based interface, and I can't select multiple files/folders...
Thanks in advance.

Rom manager sucks and is extremely unreliable. And why would he uncheck if he wants to keep it?
Because it doesn't go back to that data from that backup

You can uninstall/freeze them with Titanium Backup.
Just go to the dev section and look for the removing bloatware thread. There u will find a gscript application that does backup/restore/remove all stock samsung apps etc. But use search before you start another thread dude...

No file is necessary (except yours PERSONAL FILES). There is just one folder called ANDROID, but if you delete this, ANDROID OS will create automatic it again.
Ps: if you created recovery backups, there is a folder called XRECOVERY, very important to you, not for ANDROID OS.

Titanium Backup is usually the go-to for backups on rooted devices.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&hl=en
or an APK site such as...

Hi Friend,
Thanks for your reply.
I'm very sorry that I not explained clear in the first of beginning. What I want to know is the backup file can flash by TWRP (zip) or fastboot (img).
If you have a TWRP backup you can open recovery and use the 'Restore' button. If you have a Titanium Backup file, download the app, place the file into the folder TB is using, and restore. How you go about restoring depends entirely on where your backup file originated.
