We lose the outlook IMAP/POP3 account settings everytime we flash a new ROM. Is there any way to export or backup the account settings so that they can be restored later?
This would be a real time saver

Look in ROM Flashing Junkies and read about RapiConfig to get your Email2 settings.
I need to do a hard reset on my phone and I would like to know how to backup/save these settings so I don't have to create each account again (I have 5 e-mail accounts ). Does anyone know where that info is stored?
I know how to backup the Personal Information (PIM file) but it doesn't include the email accounts.
Spb Backup or Sprite Backup - you can do "trial" with Spb and see if it works to your satisfaction
Does anyone know how to backup texts and contacts? So whenever I flash new firmware I can get them back?
Thanks in advance.
There is an app called sms backup & restore in the market. I use that.
And not sure about contacts because I just automatically download them from my gmail account when setting up the phone.

I use MyBackup Pro v2.3.4 (available from Marketplace) as it allows you to backup apk's/apk's and their data, and also things like Contacts, Calendar events, Bookmarks, SMS, alarm, etc. To use it, you will need root access.
Actually, you see, the problem is that I cannot download ANY apps from the marketplace. It stalls and keeps displaying the message "Starting download..". Hence why I am trying to back everything up and reinstall the ROM.
In settings, there is a backup option that saves all contact / texts onto the SD Card. anyone know where that file is located? I'll ever be grateful if someone can post this information. thanks.
EDIT: The option is in Settings > Privacy > Backup settings.
Hi Everyone
I am having an issue with Titanium Backup, and would like to know if anyone have had similar problem and would know how to solve that.
TB would not restore my accounts. I have notably Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync accounts for my mails (as they are the only one apparently allowing push emails). I have made backups and restore after a change of rom, and it didn't work out for my accounts.
I read similar issues on forums, where it was advised to do a complete backup and restore.
I made the following test: I used batch, then Backuo all user apps + system Data. I deleted one of my accounts. Then batch restore (I made restore missing appa + all system data, where I selected restore data only). It did not replace the account I deleted.
Can you advise me doing something differently.
Thanks in advance for your help

Still trying to figure this out myself as well, as well as possibly somehow restoring widgets...
Have you tried (from your description it doesn't look like it) backing up apps and system data separately ? Then just restore the data
Hi guys,
Im currently facing the same issue too.
I manage to restore all apps with data including bookmarks. But it doesnt restore the actual Email accounts such as my Yahoo and gmail.
So everytime I flash a new ROM, I have to manually set them up again.
Hopefully there is a way
works for me
Hi guys, did anyone managed to backup and restore it ?
it seems like titanium backup it as when I do a full restore i find it but just can't identify which packages are involved ..
Quite sure that email alone is not enough ..
I'm having the same issue. It's accounts and sync we are after. It's not an option as far as I can tell.

Hi,
I'm having the same issue.
Just installed Vanilla Root Box 4.2 yesterday on my Galaxy S2 and again I wasn't able to restore correctly my email accounts (both IMAP and EXCHANGE "Corporate").
How I proceeded :
RomNuke
Install Root Box 4.2
Restore Accounts (data)
Restore Email (app + data)
Restore Exchange Services (app + data)
When you explore Accounts TB says it's a DB in /data/system/users/0/accounts.db.
Once I setup my email account, I can see it here.
*A bit sad that Exchange passwords are in plain text here*
So I thought that would be the solution.
But when I restore it, all but email accounts are restored.
Someone has a trick to restore correctly email accounts ?
Thanks

Unfortunatly never manage to Backup/Restore those email!!
When setting up a new Rom it is very time consumming to have to re-configure them...
If at least it was possible to restore emails + Config, and I will confirme the passwords after that...
Guys , i updated my HTC 10 to the Android Nougat today. i backed up my data on my gmail account and factory reset the phone. After resetting and logging into my gamil account, my settings, messages and wifi etc are note restored. It has never happened before with any of my earlier phones namely, One X, M8. Please help and suggest me how do i restore my messages...
They are really important to me.
Before a factory reset, and of course after saving a few things, I go to settings > accounts & sync > Google > synch all
On reboot after factory reset and loging to my Gmail account, it syncs and it asks if I want to retore all of my apps ans apps data...
Unfortunately, it is not dong that... Maybe there is some issue. Is there any way possible that i can get my data back???? The most important thing is need is my messages.... Text messages i mean. Those are very important to me.
Any help will be appreciated...
Have you looked in Google Drive settings?
