I am picking up new OP 7T pro next week but would like to be able to transfer all data ,apps ,message history, phone history from my note 10 plus. Any advise would be appreciated,regards
I have not personally tried it on my OP7 Pro but there is an app OnePlus Switch that facilitates transfer of data. What exactly gets transferred, I really don't know but it's worth checking it when you receive the new phone.
Yup, OnePlus switch is really easy to use. Just make sure it is installed on both phones, then open the app on your old phone and follow the steps
I also used 1+ Switch from my Samsung S10+ to this badboy device! Cheers

If you own a PC, my suggestion is using a third-party phone transfer program to help you Transfer everything from note 10 plus to new OP 7T pro. Usually, data including app, contacts, sms, music, photos, videos, books, call logs can be directly transferred between them. There are many such phone transfer programs online. Just have a try and choose the one you like better. Good luck to you.

Data, would be the issue if both devices are not rooted. All 3lse can be transfered using swift backup app on playstore
For data transfer and apps not using oneplus transfer tool

pardon me, but i'm pissed. I started fiddling with this thing yesterday with no luck now i've just spent the past 5 hours with this crap...i upgraded from the s3 and have no fkn idea why they've made some features so fkn difficult....excuse my language.
here's my problem, before changing phones i used mybackup to backup sms, mms, call logs, contacts and apps. Well after searching i see the reware directory needs to be put in the legacy/emulated folder....i did that but mybackup still can't see it. No problem, i'll do everything with good old Kies...but i can't find kies on the S5, market or samsung store. i've tried every fkn thing...i plugged in my old phone and downloaded easy back up and some other crap that's for rooted phones only. i can't find the easybackup directory. i downloaded some wifi transfer apps and the free ones have transfer limits...
can someone please help me before i throw this fkn phone and break it? thanks and btw my s5 and s3 aren't rooted.

First a question: Are you afraid of rooting/tripping knox?
Answers: 1) Root will help with this. Get titanium backup PRO, but it requires root. I have been using it for I don't know how long.
2) Root will help with this. The S3 can be rooted and then returned to stock for your backing up needs. Once you root the S5 for your restoring needs, knox flag will trip and stay with you.
3) Calm down! Read the above answers again and think about it. He He good luck
I use My Backup Pro and if I'm not mistaken only the pro version will restore from one phone to a different phone. I'd also suggest using the cloud option. I backed up my S4 and restored to my S5 in minutes using the cloud and did not attempt it on a memory chip. It's also possible that KitKat security changes might make reading the data from the chip a problem. I am also not rooted yet.

Good idea to try the cloud, I never tried that.
KitKat only messed up the WRITE to SD card permissions, there's an app that restores it though on the play store. READING from the SD card to restore your backups and other things is not a problem even without the fix.

Super Backup from the play store is great for backing up and restoring all your messages, contacts, and call log. It saves them as tiny XML files, and even gives you the option to e-mail it to yourself. Then you can restore it just as easily in the app on the new phone. You can browse for the file, so you don't have to worry about where it's saved. Just e-mail it to your gmail and download it right back on the new phone.
I used this method for myself (I have the stupid AT&T variant that is going back soon, no root, no hope, no nothing) and friends and family with no root.
As for the apps, I just let Play Store reinstall it it whether it's after a full wipe and install of a ROM or moving to a new phone.. But if you have certain apps that can't be obtained from Play Store, and since you obviously don't have Titanium Backup having no root, Super Backup can also backup the apps, then browse to the backup folder for the APK files it saves and move it over manually. Use a file explorer to open the apk and install.

thanks for the advice, but i'm not rooting right now. this is my 7th Android phone, i rooted the first 5, but i didn't root the s3 and have no plans of rooting this unless there's some incredible features that i really desire. i use to root back in the day to get the features that now come stock. Most of the things i dreamed of having on my phone now come stock, so i now don't see much need to root. Besides i have nightmares about the last 2 devices i rooted....gps no longer worked, phones started rebooting by themselves more often (every android i had did that but after rooting it seemed to happen more often)....i got tired of doing camera fixes, gps fixes, bluetooth not working.......i don't know, maybe the game has changed in 2014 and roms are more stable. I was deep into that starting with my g1, then my Nexus (the very first Nexus, i paid like $500 for it). I respect the developers and those who root their devices, i just don't see much personal need for it with these megaphones on the market in 2014.
What would rooting my S5 this early give me? Its currently fast enough, smooth, i love the camera, everything works like a charm(gps, bluetooth, etc...), my battery is CURRENTLY lasting all day with heavy use (i'm no fool, i know that wont last forever, especially coming from the another samsung phone). With all the widgets and things i have, i don't have a desire to root, maybe months from now, i'll get bored with the phone and see some good features....but rooting now.....you care to share your favorite features that a rooted S5 is currently bringing?
thx

do you know the name of the app that restores it? also, Strychtnine, i have mybackuppro, but saved the backup to sdcard...i no longer have another phone so i can't backup mybackuppro online. i used easy backup and saved to google drive, thankfully I was able to restore my sms, mms and call logs....unfortunately many of my contacts didnt restore, i never had that issue with mybackup, its always been my preferred and most trusted backup app dating back to the G1.
A couple other questions while I have a few of you in this thread.
Where is Kies? is it no longer available....i used it heavily with the S3, i don't see it on the s5, playstore, or samsung store. Is there another free app that will allow me to view files on my computer and make changes like Kies? Wifi Transfer is cool but it has a very small transfer limit (i think it was like 10mb or something). I'm not into Google Drive, i use it for hosting music but its a pain to me....first 100mb takes around an hr to upload, then i have to download it on my phone, which takes another few minutes. I honestly prefer the good ole days of plugging the usb to the computer and boom! By the way, has that feature returned with the s5? i plugged usb to computer but it says can't find software. I searched online for s5 drivers and can't find a thing. Any suggestions? i took several pics that i want to send to computer, i don't feel like using google drive, with gmail, i'd have to attach all the files then download them.....i wish i could just connect phone to computer (usb or wireless) and copy/paste files. thanks

I feel what your saying about the past devices and the problems that Custom Roms can create. Root however is different. I use root to run apps that require root i.e., Titanium backup, Greenify, GSAM battery, etc...
Kitkat 4.4.2 and probably Android going forward is some what weird if you think about it. It brought great features like being able to turn off apps (bloat) that you don't use in manage apps, and allows moving apps to the sd card...But on the same note they crippled the SD card write permissions for what reason? Oxymoron? So again here you need root to be able to edit the permissions file or use that SDfix https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix from the playstore. Note the first thing In the description is ROOT REQUIRED.
I also like Xposed and modules which allows me to customize certain things without needing a custom rom. Note that Xposed is causing some people problems with lag, S health, and Private mode not working.
I have two S5's both with root. On one S health works but Private mode doesn't. NO noticed lag.
The other one however, has extreme lag and freezing, and both S health and Private modes broken don't know why the difference. I don't use S health nor Private mode so no problem there but the lag was terrible so had to uninstall Xposed on the second one. Root alone doesn't break anything.

Kies 3 is available I don't see it on the phone which is good it connects right up once you plug up with computer. http://www.samsung.com/sg/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP . Make sure you select the install for the NEWER phones Note 3 and newer I think it says.

I just plugged it in and windows 7 installed the drivers right away...Maybe once you install Kies above it will install the drivers for you... The S5 actually come with USB 3.0. If you have USB 3.0 on your computer the transfer speeds will be insanely faster than previous phones. Why use Kies just use windows explorer for transfers, Kies just becomes a middle man!
Hey everyone!
My Samsung Galaxy S6 is about 6 months old roughly and the battery life has never really been all that great on it anyway, but lately I'm having some much more serious issues with it depleting really quickly, and dropping to 98% as soon as I take it off the charger. Anyway, my query was regarding backing up my phone and the best way to go about it. I came from an iPhone so I've never really had to back up an Android phone before, this is all new to me. I've googled and such but I figured it might be better to ask as I find a lot of the threads about it and posts in general online are quite old and maybe outdated now.
I want to be able to back up app data, contacts, messages, bookmarks (if thats a thing), login data, and so forth. I know photos and any files can be transferred to my macbook so I'm not too worried about that.
I have a Macbook so I'm not sure on what backup/restore programs are available or whether there is anything I can use to transfer files and such.
I don't know whether this will fix my problem but I figure it's well overdue for a restore anyway so who knows, maybe it'll help a little. Otherwise, I have it insured so I can always see about a fix if it's the battery itself that's faulty.
If you are stock without root or mods then Samsung Smart Switch should work. Google also syncs most things like apps and data, contacts, wifi passwords, etc and you can use a multitude of apps to backup call logs and texts. If you are rooted, you can use something like Titanium Backup. Then copy your internal storage to your Mac. Reset and copy back.

Ah yes I forgot to mention - my phone is not rooted. Are there any apps you recommend to back up texts and such? I didn't know whether Smart Switch was just for when you were switching phones.. I'm guessing it can restore once everything is backed up and the phone has been reset? Will make sure to back things up to Google too. Thanks
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/smart-switch-support/#!/faqs/1
They have a Mac version. It should be able to backup your messages and such according to their FAQs. I like Call Log Backup and Restore and SMS Backup and Restore for apps on the phone. Very simple and works for most any phone or Android version.
If you're not rooted Samsung Kies should be able to do the backup for you.

With the S6 / S6 Edge, they introduced Smart Switch to replace Kies.
Thanks all! Will look into SmartSwitch and the other aforementioned apps. Really appreciate it! Also, is there any other way to connect the phone to my Macbook other than using Android File Transfer? I find the application very buggy and it keeps disconnecting from the phone when I'm trying to do stuff.
I don't use Macs, but I would suggest either an app like Wifi File Explorer Pro or if you are comfortable with command line stuff, just use adb.
Over 7 years I used titanium backup and root to copy and restore the application. I have many applications in which I have important data and I would like to transfer them to Mate 20 pro.
Without root, I tried the Helium application, but it does not work.Please write if is any other metod to restore app data.Thanks
Had the same issue and just started from the scratch...

Have you tried Huawei own Phone Clone? Worked perfectly for me. It was Huawei to Huawei though.
Yes I tried Phone Clone, copy app OK but no app data from Note 3
I used phone clone from s8+ to mate 20 pro. It says it copies app data but it doesn't really.
Same problem here, coming from S9+
Is there anything I could use from oneplus to mate 20 pro?
In my opinion starting fresh with a new phone is the least I can do to avoid bloat and carry over problems.
I don't factory default periodically like others, but at least I start every new phone fresh.
My 2 cents, everyone is different.
Hey there,
Recently got myself a Pocophone really really cheap and I am loving it.
Only problem is, I need a way to backup everything (Call Logs, SMS, System, Apps etc) to my PC just in case the phone dies one day and I can't do anything about it.
Much like Huawei HiSuite - which I used on my Mate 9 before going to the Pocophone.
I read the Xiaomi's own PC Suite doesn't even work anymore, which is a bit sad.
And MiCloud only does a few things and only for a Xiaomi device.
I'm thinking some sort of Universal software that is trusted that I can use to just back everything up once in a while and if I get, say an Oppo or Samsung down the track, I can restore the backup to it and be done with it.
The only OTHER solution that I have is to use Mi Mover to transfer call logs etc to one of my older Samsung phones (S7 for example) and leave it at that.
EDIT: Nope that only works for OLD PHONE to Xiaomi :\
EDIT: Doing Smart Switch from Pocophone to S7 works. So I'll have to do that to keep my messages, call logs etc and manually back up videos and pictures to my PC which should be fine.
Bit of a pain but, it's got to be done
HOWEVER If you guys have any other suggestions, let me know!
Thanks so much!
You can backup in TWRP and then move it to a PC.

TWRP doesn't backup internal storage ie. files, photos, videos etc.
And restoring a TWRP backup from one phone to another is dangerous at the least.
Migrate may be able to help you for sure, but you'll have to do it manually every time you wish to backup.
You can select which apps you want to backup, call logs, sms, media, etc.
Sadly there isn't a tool/app for Xiaomi!
Hi,
I just got a new phone, if I go through the process to copy all of my old phone over to the new one can I still use my old phone after its done?
The main reason I'm asking is because I've got hundreds of open browser tabs (on 3 separate browsers!) that I want to sort through and bookmark before I lose them but want to start using my new phone straight away.
Otherwise it seems that all app data, apps, contacts etc is automatically saved and transfered so I think the open tabs are the only thing that needs sorting. Is there anything I'm forgetting/missing?
Thanks!

Hi,
Idk which method you'll use to transfer data, but your old phone won't be reset if you don't ask for it. Usually data transfer are just a "copy/paste" of the data from one phone to another. The only phone I know that loses data when transferring is the iPhone (and hopefully you don't have one).
Have a good day
Haha, no iPhones here! OK thanks, I couldn't find an answer with Google so thought I'd ask on here.
Great news as it means I can go ahead and start using my new phone.
Which method do you recommend? Does it matter? Options seem to be via cloud or direct transfer over WiFi.
Thanks!
@domdom272
