Hi guys,
You know that I'm now in a bootloop, I've been offered a repair but dubious because of personal data that was on my tablet.
I've done a factory reset but all of my files remain on the devices SDCard, bank details, private work documents, etc etc
Will they access all of this, take a look or indeed restore my data that I've wiped off?
On my stock rooted ROM, after wiping data, cache and dalvik cache, I've created a Nandroid Backup.
My question is, if someone restores this backup to there phone, which is the same as mine, will it have any of my information, or could it possibly cause any problems?
I was simply going to upload it, so that if anybody has any problems installing the latest OTA or hasn't got a working Nandroid backup, they can use it.

Em well first off, if you done the wipe data ect first then you will not have a NANDROID Backup as there is nothing there to back up,
Second i wouldn't recommend anyone but yourself use the back up but if its between friends ect from with in the phone in settings go to factory reset and that way your data will be clear for the most part and safe to share with friends you trust in-case anything is left behind but i would not release to public in any capacity and then proceed to create your NANDROID backup from within your recovery app.
If you really had to do it that way, you would want to create a NANDROID backup for yourself, reboot your phone go to settings factory reset, then boot back to recovery make another NANDROID Backup (This one for Friends clear of your data)

The whole point of me doing the wipe data etc first, was to clear any personal data from the phone.
The Nandroid backup was so that there was a working stock rooted rom.
My question should have been does it keep any data that cannot be manually deleted. e.g. Serial numbers etc....But I think I found the answer. Apparently it does and it can cause problems when restoring.
The only reason I was going to do it was because, I have seen a couple of people using the HTC One X, that are trying to get from stock rooted 1.26, to stock rooted 1.28 and this backup would get them there.

If you take the boot.img and system.img from your backup and then use dsixda's kitchen to create a flashable rom.

(remove the spaces, can't post links yet lol) its the download and tutorial
There should be no information or data in your output rom so anyone can use it etc
Hy!
I have the SGS3 with Android 4.0.4 installed (and rooted).
I noticed yesterday that a new firmware update is available for my phone (Romania - Vodafone): 4.1.1 (on sammobile).
If i'll go ahead and update the firmware, will i loose all my apps and/or data (+ root)?
What do i need to do, to update the android to 4.1.1 (or 4.2 if possible) and keep all my apps and data?
Thanks!
ps: Sorry for my english!
I would start with searching the forum there are lots of threads related to backing up apps and data to ensure you do not lose anything.
The easiest way to back up apps + app data is to use Titanium Back Up. Once you have created a backup with Titanium (move files to Ext SD, depending on level of wipe, would recommend full wipe) Update your phone, install Titanium Back Up again, and restore all of your apps + app data, very easy and quick.
if it is a stock rom
flashing via Odin does not delete your app and data
you dont also need to wipe data or anything like that
just dont check the repartition on Odin

After factory reset then restore automatically my data?
Plz help.i know use backup app restore.
But i want full automatic.
Is it possible?
Hi All,
I posted in the wrong forum, so reposting here in Q&As.
I'm looking for a way to backup a full image of my android device, and be able to wipe, then do a full restore (apps, settings, cache, etc..). I know there are great options for Rooted devices and recovery, but any for stock?
I have a personal phone that I also use for consulting, and travel quite a bit, but CBP has been searching phones more often (used to be mostly laptops and tabs in the past), and I want to have a clear stock device so i don't distribute my client's data (and my personal).
So ideally, I would:
1. Backup and wipe phone before heading to airport/TSA
2. Restore once landed overseas and cleared customs/immigration, and use as normal
3. Backup and wipe phone before heading to airport/int'l security
4. Restore once landed in the US and cleared customs, and use as normal.
I have a stock Galaxy Note 8. Searched on here and on google, but only found solutions with root access (i.e.: Titanium Backup)
Thanks everyone!!
