Transfer app data from Android to another Android - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't plan to switch phones anytime soon, but it would be good to know for the future.
Is there a way to transfer the data from apps from one Android to another? This is especially useful for games with saved data inside the phone, such as Angry Birds or Temple Run.

You can use the application titanium backup, the paid version sports bulk operationand us Hyatt want you need, although it's not recommended to use it across Android versions
Swyped form ym Dersie S unsig XAD Permuim

Or MyBackup. Backup all your appa and it will create a folder on your sdcard with all your applications u backed up!
The savefiles is not available for every games, just some games futures savefiles that are on the sdcard also. You just have to check if your games got savefiles (try searching for the game name on the sdcard and see if there is some extra files).

If you created a backup via twrp or titanium it's quite easy to get back your saves. They're usually stored along with other data in /data/data/name.of.app
If you restore that, they will more than likely come back. If you're restoring from TWRP, then it's nothing more than a tar file which you can open in WinRAR, 7-zip, or any other qualified archiver. I'm not sure if the newest TWRP (1.1?) stores backups in this way since it does them a bit different and aren't compatible with previous versions, but it is worth a try!

gaming with same data on different devices

say, i wanna play gta 3 on my phone and after a while i switch to my tab and go off where i left off with my phone
is there any app or way that shares the same game data on different devices?
If you're rooted you could copy the data folder from /data/data/ then blue tooth it, then paste it.

Sync game saves between phone and tablet.

I'm currently playing Dead Space and Mass Effect on my android tablet. I'd like to be able to play the games on my phone without having to start over. Does any one know of a good way to sync the game saves between the devices?
Thanks

I would try Ti Backup Pro, I use it to sync my data saves to my Dropbox or Google Drive, then both device have access to the same data. Install the app normally though just restore the data...Of course both have to be rooted I think to properly save data like that.
Good Luck,
jerems
I've not rooted my phone yet but will do that tonight and give it a try.

This is a better solution:
Root both devices
Download DirectoryBind (from XDA)
Install Dropbox (I'm sure you already have it, but if you don't use my link and we both get free space)
Create a link between your dropbox folder and the gamesave folder (so effectively, the save is sent to the dropbox folder instead. Whenever the game looks for the save it thinks it's finding it in the usual location, but instead it's on dropbox)
Do the same for both devices for effortless saving between devices
(I have a similar script setup for my PC game saves )
I finally got round to rooting my phone last night. I gave directory bind a try. I have set it up on the phone and the tablet. everything seems to be syncing fine however the game progress isn't syncing. Am I wrong in thinking that the game saves will be in the data folder for the game? for instance
/sdcard/Android/data/com.ea.deadspace_row/files/published/data
Thanks

Where is the save file located for mass effect? I could not find it in the eagames folder in the android directory. Would it be possible to take the save file from my phone and add it to my tablet for mass effect? I don't need it to sync but i gamed on my phone but now that i have a nexus 7 i would like to do all my gaming there.
any help or suggestions without rooting both? Additionally, a few of my nexus 7s have had screen lifts so I may be getting them replaced with google. I would also be filling to just transfer the mass effect save file from nexus7 to nexus 7
thanks,
Brian

Hi there, first time poster so I'm hoping for good luck
I need to transfer my saved game from my Verizon Galaxy Nexus to my Nexus 7 tablet. This is a one-time only transfer (I don't need to be going back and forth between devices). Is there any way to accomplish this for Deadspace without root and without paying for the pro version of an app?
My other option is to root both devices but I would then have to immediately unroot the Galaxy Nexus (And I'm still not clear on whether there is some secret way Verizon can tell that I have rooted my phone in the past).
Thanks for all your help!

Backup of app data

Good Evening fellow members,
I have successfully rooted my S3 and about to install some custom roms. I know how to backup all my apps using Titanium but does this also save the data? I.e Real Racing 3 game and save game play data so I dont loose any game play etc.
it would be a shame to start over again....NOT !!!!
cheers

Yes it does, do it regularly or schedule TB to backup automatically the apps you want to do.
When you tap the restore option you get the choice to restore App, App & Data or just Data.
Cheers ag4751 for your help. I thought it would as its a very good app on rooted devices but its better to get a little confirmation that it does. Thanks
