[Q] Backup apps - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hello there, is there anyway to back up my apps and store them in a USB? i have a otg cable and my device is rooted.

Sure use titanium backup then hook you phone up to your computer and copy the titanium backup folder to it.

Thank i just did it. I though you could only do the backup on the SD card.

Now thats its on your sd card drag the backup folder into your thumbdrive.

If it's unlocked, you don't even need Titanium.
You can just copy a nandroid BU to a flash drive, portable hard drive etc.
I do that all the time to have a redundant BU of my system.

making a complete backup, apps, contacts and all

Hey all.

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 - Restoring apps with another phone

I went from HTC Desire to this Motorola Attic bad boy.
There are a few apps with data I want copied over, which I backed up on my Desire. I rooted my Atrix. But it doesn't see my backups.
Is it even possible to do this, or are my backups only compatible with the Desire, or what?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
i brought my backups from my captivate over to my atrix. some of the apps didnt carry over the settings, but that wasnt a big deal. did you copy your titaniumbackup folder from the old phone to the new phone?
When you copy the backup files to the new phone, there is an option in titanium to reset the application...this will find the files and allow backup

Yep. You could also get the pro version that allows you dropbox backup.

Very confused. I am having the same problem. I got a new phone today (upgraded from G2 to G2x)
I inserted my old SD card, rooted my phone, installed TBUpro (latest from market,) went to backup/restore and there are no backups there. I tried restoring all apps and data anyway. It said it was successful. But nothing changed on my new phone. (Of course I rebooted and verified the SD card is being read.)
All of my backups are in the default folder of the SD card where TBUpro placed them (with the old phone.) I'm supposed to copy them somewhere else?
For now I've given up and am having App Brain reinstall all of my apps, and Google restore my personal info. I'd still love to have my system settings and whatnot restored by TBU though. WTF?

I just saw that too..
I brought most of my apps over from my MT3GS with TiBu. The only one I really had an issue with was Angry Birds, no matter how I restored it, it would force close. I'm thinking some kind of architecture difference.
Also watch what cross platform system settings you restore. I finally figured out restoring my old wireless ap info is what b0rked my wifi.
Hi... the phone needs to be rooted, but also needs sideloading enabled.

Yes, or change the backup location by pressing menu, preferences. Use detect to locate sdcard-ext this is the removable micro sd card.

This did it. You need to go inside Titanium Backup. hit MENU key -> Backup Folder location --> Hit the DETECT! button. Then choose the desired location (it will you all the backup locations available.)

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.

Open TB and press the upper right symbol in the bar, now you see Batch back-up/restore- All in the top bar. Scroll down to the bottom and press Delete all backups. That`s it mate
or go into 'My Files' and delete the titanium backup folder

Cwm backup doesn't backup game data. If it did the backup would be massive. The data is on the memory card and stays there even if you factory reset or flash a new rom. You will only lose the data if you format sd card.
Best way to back up game data is to copy to your PC.

Just sync the game saves folder with Dropbox.
That gives you a 30 (or was it 90) day history of your old saves to download in case you f*#% up ingame aswell as the latest one

in my experience, in TiBackup, i just backup the apps normally, then the apps' data (game saves,score,..) will be backed up too, just that when you restore it, you need to choose to restore both app+data

Titanium backup help.

So I replaced my Droid Charge with the RAZR and rooted it. I got titanium backup and still had all my old backup files in my SD card. Under the same folder "Titanium Backup" but it doesn't show them there in the app. Tried refreshing and all that. How do I get my old backups?

You need to specify which folder that Titanium Backup should use for it's backups.
Menu -> Settings -> Path to backup (Not sure as to what it says since I don't have english language)
I did that, still won't see my old backups.

Is TiBU looking at the right sdcard partition?
There can be a TiBU folder on both partitions. They are "sdcard" and "sdcard-ext" sdcard-ext is the actual physical sd card. sdcard is partitioned built-in storage. Or copy the folder over to the other card.
^^What he said^^
TiBu wants to backup and restore from my phones Sd card rather than the external so to restore after a reset I always have go into settings and redirect the path too the external

Sorry to butt in, but this happens to be in the field of my problem too. I wanted to flash a ROM yesterday, but also knew that TiBu provided the option to flash an 'update.zip' file with all your backups to eliminate the long restore process, can anyone confirm the exact approach to doing this with safestrap 3.05?
