Hello everyone, I'm a newbie here so I am sorry if I posted in the wrong forum.
I've been struggling for days now and didn't get the best way to do it. I have around 140 Tablets that should be programmed and configured the same for a School. I searched for best ways to make a full backup of the one device and restore them to other with no luck yet.
First the Tablet is Chinese
Name & Model: Eken E902
Build Number: astar_m900-eng 4.4.2 KVT49L 20160322 test-keys
Kernel Version: 3.4.39
Firmware is exdroid4.4.2_r2-a33-v2.1
O/S version is Kitkat 4.4..2
I tried adb backup however it only creates a 1KB file "adb backup -all -f C:\filenameichoose.ab"
When I boot into recovery mode all I see it
- reboot system now
- apply update from ADB
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- apply update from internal storage
- apply update from external storage
- apply update from cache
Fastloader is locked and couldn't find a way to unlock it. I installed Kingroot App (kingroo dot net) to root the device. Then installed Titanium Backup Pro to create a backup. However when restoring I didn't get the result I was looking for some Apps are missing there app data and other apps seach as Google Play Service where not updated. Plus some apps where moved to SD as installation also this wasn't configured, also i didn't backup the system files as I was able to change only the boot logo and not the initlogo or animation also this wasn't backed up and restored. That means Titanium Backup pro will help you half the way it should be.
I tried Helium backup didn't work. I installed so many PC softwares also with no luck to get the thing i'm looking for. So I thought of creating my own rom based on one tablet and flash it on the other tablets however this is risky and we might lose the tablets.
So please advice me of the best way and best tools for my request, thank you in advanced.

-now that backup is stored on my int. storage , even if i move it to some
other place say my system , at the time of restore can we do it directly
from the system(point is does the backup file needs to be there in the
device storage(int or ext) at the time of restore - assuming device is
connected)
2)now when a diff rom is loaded (which has done full wipe) ,
-any other way can i get my prev data and app installed settings without
restore
-and if i do restore what exact will happen , mean ,will my prev app and data
settings get restored on top of new rom or something else?
3)How to get cwm recovery menu screen from PHONE Switched OFF state?
4)how can i delete samsung hub apps by editing system and framework files?
(assuming i have req explorer)
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Titanium Backup will do everything you asked for (I recomment the Pro version and you MUST be rooted).
It will backup and restore apps and data, and will also freeze or uninstall any app.
It's on the market for free, but I really do recommend paying the small amount for the full version.

+1 Ti is one of the few apps I would recommend to anyone that wants to flash roms. You can backup all your apps and settings before a flash and then restore quickly and easily. The freeze function is very handy also. IMO you buy this one and never look back. A MUST HAVE.
A nand backup will be used to restore the phone as it already exists. It does not backup apps and settings specifically but you can pull apks and such out of one. Basically you do a nand before you start playing around and if you screw something up or just take an instant dislike to the new rom you flashed you can go into recovery and restore that nand and your phone will be just like you never did anything. It will not however back up your radio.
What I do is backup a few apps data separately and then go into Ti and backup all my apps and system data. I boot into recovery and I make a nand. Then I go over to usb storage and I move the entire contents of the sd over to my computer. This will have both the nand and the Ti backup on it. I delete the entire internal storage after I have taken a quick look to make sure that the backup on my pc is good. This gives me a completely fresh base to start a new rom from. Once I have the new rom flashed I move my ti backup over and restore. I then move the other data that the backup contains that I want back on the phone over and I'm up and running. I keep my music and other stuff that is just going to move from one flash to the next on my sd card as it isnt wiped in the process even if you do a hard reset and it can just stay there without the hassle of backing it up and restoring it. Do not delete your backup until you are sure that you have everything you may want back across to your phone. I usually keep it until the next rom when I start the process over with a new backup.
@JJEgan - which part
@johncmolyneux ,@krabman - thnx guys
so int. usb storage will also be wiped in the process, right?
also can u clarify
- How to get cwm recovery menu screen from PHONE Switched OFF state(like we see by using the function from cwm app -> reboot into CWM rec)
- how can i delete samsung hub apps by editing system and framework files(or if any other file for that matter)?
(assuming i have req explorer)
How can I perform a backup that will backup absolutely everything, including:
- the whole operating system
- All applications
- All data files
- Everything in /sdcard
I would ultimately be able to backup everything over USB, and restore it all also over USB, so that I could wipe the tablet, install something else, and get back to the point I was before I wiped it out. I have apps and data files, but I also have OS customisations and setup that I have to re-do if I re-install the OS.
you need ClockWorkMod (CWM) recovery or TeamWin Recovery, it can backup you entire android data in one click but you need a compatible phone and root, also you can try Carbon - App Sync and Backup in the Play Store can found it, it only backup your apps data not the entirely system but its something
Will try it.

:good:
I have CWM installed on my tablet (a Nexus 7, BTW). I will take a look at this. Thanks.
If you "install something else", you do not want to restore all this data. Skip system, as this would cause problems. Take a nandroid, do a titanium backup and then you can flash and restore non-system apps and data, as well as sdcard.
Hi guys,
I've got 60 phones to setup, and that's just the biginning. I looked for some solutions to mass deploy them, the fastest way possible. I of course already know titanium backup and applications like that, but i would prefer not to root phone...
I was pretty confident about a nandroid backup : flashing the recovery of the phone is really quick, and i would just have to backup on card or on usb on the go on the master phone, and to restore the backup on all the phone remaining. But it didn't worked as expected, it happens that on each phone, twrp is generating backup in a folder named something like "420khg66g6cca200" and which is different on each phone, and when you put the card in another phone, this one doesn't see the main backup.
I of course tried to sneak arround and generate a backup on the second phone, which i replaced with the content of the first one, but the phone doesn't even boot anymore.
I used twrp because i dind't find another recovery avaiable for the phone, which is by the way a samsung Xcover 3 also known as SM-G388F.
I tried to backup only system, system image, and data and to restore it and the phones is stuck on boot screens.
I tried to backup again with boot partition, same thing happen'd. There's something i don't understand tho, there's some warning about /system partition which can't be mounted when i look around on the recovery of the slave phone.
I'm on stock rom, no root. I looked for similar post (really), but there's mostly guys which make backup / restore on the same phone, and i didn't find my answer.
My questions are : is there someone's who did this before ? Why the phone doesn't boot anymore ? Is there something that's making the backup unrecoverable on another phone ?
In this case, is there anyway to bypass that ?
Thank you by advance.
So...
We've done more tests, and when we only select the data partition, it does what we want.
So what I've done to deploy 50 phone :
- Prepared my "master" phone with all my apps and parameters
- Gone in TWRP to backup, saved the folder inside TWRP/BACKUPS/cde0654364576****/ (the generated folder), so saved the folder inside UNTOUCHED on my computer (for unknow reason, if i use it once to restore a phone, i can't use it again on another phone, so keep a copy somewhere)
- Boot to twrp on the slave phone, generate a backup to also generate the name folder
- Boot on system phone, delete what's inside the folder, and copy / past the previously generated backup from the master phone
- Boot again in twrp end restore. Reboot and that's done, you're slave phone should be the same as the master.
If someone find this thread, don't hesitate to ask more details.
Hi,
is it possible to backup a rooted android phone without recovery?
Backup must cover system apps, settings and maybe even all partitions - as much as possible
Thanks
As far as i know all "backup apps" cover only user apps and maybe system app settings, but i havent found any which includes all system apps itself too! Is there something which covers that too? Or asked with different words, is there a app (with root privilege) which can back up entire system partition?
Yes, with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.h3r3t1c.onnandbup&hl=en_GB Online Nandroid Backup you can make a CWM or TWRP backup of everything on your phone, this works and have used it myself to make a backup when there was no custom recovery for my phone.
THIS app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.h3r3t1c.bkrestore&hl=en_GB Nandroid Manager says it can restore the backup you have made, but have never used it so cant confirm.
The first app saved everything from a stock rom so I could get all the files I needed to port a new rom, and all my data and apps so I know that works fine.
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!!
