[Q] Can you transfer game savedata? (2.3 to 4.1)

So, I currently have a Galaxy Gio running 2.3.x, but I'll be getting a S3 Mini next week.
I have lots of savedata I don't want to lose, like Hill Climb Racer and more.
Is there any way to transfer the savedata, if the apps are on the SD?
Does your gio have root ?

Tell me, then.
as far as i know
to copy your game data is from titanium back up
but the target device must be rooted too
Without root you could try looking to see if the game stores its data on the /sdcard. If its stored under /data then you'll need root on the new device to copy it.
I'm surprised there isn't a way to back up game save points, app data, etc to your Google account.

Ohh.. You need Titanium Backup for data backup and restore.

[Q] Recover lost app data due to accidental app deinstallation

Hi there,
I'm new here, so it's my first post and I hope I'm in the right place to ask here
Yesterday my girlfriend accidently deinstalled one of her favorite apps from her SGS3 (via Play Store), it's a game and all its game data is stored internally as it seems. No backup or anything else has been made before
She just reinstalled the app from the Play Store and opened it just once, but did not do anything else yet.
I've already searched the forum and googled around a lot, but did not get any appropriate answer to my question:
Is there any way to recover the lost app data to make her happy again?
I've already tried several apps from the Play Store like: Dumpster, Undelete, DiskDigger, Hexamob Recovery but nothing worked or even could access the internal storage or was just able to maybe recover lost pictures or videos.
Device info:
I've rooted her SGS3 I9300 and recently flashed it with CM 10.2 nightly (playing around with the phone while waiting to buy myself a new one )
I really hope there is someone out there who has an idea or just gives me an appropriate answer.
I'm not a native speaker so my apologies for every mistake I maybe made
Thanks in advance!

you said the data is not lost. so cut and save the data somewhere you'd like to. re-install the game and paste this data under android>data.

The app was deinstalled and as far as it seems all its stored data with it, so I cannot cut and paste it in again, that's why Im asking for a way to recover the app data

you also said the phone is rooted. enable root option to the file explorer and then you will be able to copy/cut/paste the data on the system. my preference es file explorer. menu> root explorer> mount R/W> set permissions to RW. then you will be good to go.

Maybe I was not clear enough. I tried your suggestion and searched for 'smurf' to find any data, now I got several files and folders containing 'smurf'.
I think the data was deteled while the deinstallation of the app, am I right?
Hard to answer this, but in which files will the app data be stored and if it is deleted, how can I get it back?
I found a solution, she did do a backup without telling me, 2 months ago...stupid little... my bad or better: her bad.
Thanks for your help so far!
Thread can be closed now...
Just FYI, without that backup, there would have been nothing you could have done.

Now that's what I wanted to know
I already thought that there might be no way to get the data back, due to the storage structure / filesystem and even to the fact that she reinstalled the app and started it (main data has maybe been written at that moment, so the old data blocks have been overwritten or so)
Really thanks!

[Q] How to back up MomentCam?

Hi! Anyone else using MomentCam and Star Wars: Tiny Death Star? I need to factory reset my Samsung Galaxy S2 and I was hoping I could back up my game saves before I do. I have X-plore File Manager and I've tried looking for their respective app folders under Android/data but I can't seem to find them. I have two I couldn't figure out which app uses though: com.levelup.touiteur and com.sgiggle.production. Thanks in advance!

if your on a rooted phone,then use titanium backup!
if your on a unrooted phone,to backup apk use apkextracter and to backup data you must find it's data folder in sd card!

My Android is unrooted. I have Android Assistant which I used to backup the games but I don't think that includes the game saves. I have a feeling that is what apkextracter would do as well. For the data folder, is the correct path Android/data/ or do applications have another path where they save info? Looking at mine I don't see the folders for these two. Unless they are the two I mentioned in my original post. I was hoping someone who had them installed could look and tell me where to find the save folders. Thank you though!
Update: I checked the Google Play link for MomentCam and found this: "com.manboker.headportrait" did a search and it's under Root/mnt/asec/
hi, somebody can give me momentcam backup with all effects (without VIP)

[Q] Use data of a game from another device?

So I have downloaded a game called trainz, which requires me to download 300+ MB data. I have a samsung galaxy young s6312. I have downloaded the game with the data on this mobile. Recently I got a note 2. I want to play this game on my note 2. But i don't want to download the data all over again. Is there a solution by which I can copy the data folder from my old device to my new one?
P. S I already tried copying the com.nv3games.trainz folder (size 318 mb) from my old device to the obb folder of my new device, which didn't work. I also tried copying it to the data folder of my new device, which also didn't work. The Game was still asking me to download the data. Both devices are rooted, so any solution which requires root will be ok.
Thanks..

[Q] Restoring Need for Speed Most Wanted Issues

I just rooted my Sprint Note 3 using Kingo and wanted to restore my Need for Speed Most Wanted data using Titanium Backup. I have version 6.1.5.2 so. Well...the game just force closes. I'm think this problem was resolved after a certain version already. The phone is rooted only on stock MJ4. I tried using the restorecon command in a terminal anyways and have removed and reinstalled several times in trying to get it going. Any thoughts???

I also have this problem on my note3 kk 4.4.2 and did not found solution
I just had a thought. Now that im on 4.4 NAB & running into restore issues there. I was able to restore dungeon Hunter 4 but had to use helium to do it. Helium only had the data. So I installed it then used helium to restore its data and it worked. I figure can try that with need 4 speed.
Sucks cause I never backed nfs with helium. Although I may try to restore it in an emulator then back it up with helium then try to restore on my phone.

I restored my game on a galaxy mega 6.3 and it worked of course being rooted and older version of android. I then backed that up with helium onto the SDcard.
Moved that back to my phone then tried to restore it. Still a no go. I tried it again but restoring data after starting the game normally like I did with Dungeon hunter 4. Still a no go. So idk....There is something different about nfs. Not sure...

I had the same issue of FC with my Helium backup of NFS.
The solution was to restore the backup and then copy out the file 'nfstr_save.sb' from /data/data/com.ea.games.nfs13_row/files/var/. Then remove the app completely, reinstall cleanly and put only that file back again. (root required)
Really? Hmmm I will try that

was this before or after the 600mb file download?

Having the same issue anyone solved it as yet?
So far no doing the last suggestion only causes the game for me to pop an error of an invalid save data. Due to this I have since stopped playing the game. I been playing Summoner ' war. A bit addicted to it. If anyone decides to play it let me know I'm Snyperninja in the game. I'll add you if u Need friends in the game. Play it you'll see what I mean.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I too just had this issue. I was surprised the titanium restore prevented the app starting.
Anyway, I tried to copy the save game file from my titanium backup right into the proper location, force closed the game and opened it and everything came back. I didn't have to uninstall the app at all.
I know it's an old thread and everyone has probably moved on but my searching brought me here and the advice helped me fix it, so I'm leaving this note here for anyone else who might stumble across this thread.

Really??? You may have gotten lucky cause I think I tried that before. At what point did you copy the save game data? in my case doing so just made the game get a data error and it would kick the data and start fresh anyways.

This is the what happened:
Backed up in Ti
Flashed, wiped, restored
Game Exited without loading
Found this thread
Cleared Data on the app (which also cleared all the additional files)
Game redownloaded the additional files
Started the game as if it were a new game
Signed into Origin
Extracted the saved game file from the .tar.gz and put it in the right location
Killed the game process and started it up again and my progress was restored.
Okay yes..... this works

I have tried everything with this F__kin backup system, and still cannot get my "progress file" loaded. It reinstalls, but I have to start from the beginning, which is soooo f---kin aggravating. I get access to my cars, when I do the Origin login, but I have to re-purchase them all over again. I know there are hack tools to get money and SPs, but I don't want to do that because I really enjoy the challenge. Could you please explain what you mean by "proper location." Where exactly did you place the titanium files, and which ones?

This worked like a charm! I'd almost banged my head against the wall as this would be the second time I'd have completed the entire game and lost the app data due to rom swap.
The steps I used was:
Restore the app...
Restore the data...
Cut out the file 'nfstr_save.sb' from /data/data/com.ea.games.nfs13_row/files/var/ and save in a different location...
Opened up NFSMW and play the first 2 compulsory rounds...
Login to Origin...
Exit the game...
Paste the file 'nfstr_save.sb' back in /data/data/com.ea.games.nfs13_row/files/var/
(the game would have already re-written another copy of the file by now which you must overwrite)
Fire up the game again and you have your exact game progress back!
If you found this useful, don't forget to hit thanks!
The instructions from user iam breeze worked for me! Thanks!
It's so simple, most ppl rooting devices can't figure out such easy ops like find and copy a file.
By the way, needed rights for save game file are read & write ofc - 600
