So I got my galaxy S II yesterday and while I was setting it up I noticed the Google backup and restore options are missing from Settings - Privacy. I rely on this functionality to get my progress restored in certain apps namely Robotek. Not all apps use Google's backup service, but for the ones that do it works really well. Doe's anyone have insight into these missing settings? I would like to not lose my progress if possible.
Thanks!
I don't see Backup and Restore under the Privacy settings either. Does anyone know if this something that Samsung or Sprint left out of the stock ROMs?

Does anyone know how to get the apps in the multiwindow bar (flashbar) to retain their positions ? or are they even meant to retain their positions ?
I put mine in the order I want them, but when I reboot they are all jumbled up again.
Regards, Dave.
Edit : Found the cause of the problem in another thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...r#post36706764
By Scalee : *Update on the sorting issue*
So i looked into why apps positioning changes on a reload.
And i found the problem, Samsung has a function to restore apps on reboot (It is unchanged in my mod, so every multiwindow mod is affected by this)
It's simply wrong... It can never restore apps in the same order the way it written at the moment.
It also waste resources doing things multiple times for no reason causing extra load times and allocates extra memory for nothing, Can't believe that they made such sloppy code.
Anyway..... Ill have to rewrite the whole function to solve the issue.
I will try to rewrite it, but i am not sure that i will succeed.

I was wondering, would this .apk enable Google Wallet to work and would it cause any issues such as a breaking Google Wallet if the card is not detached before restoring the build.prop or any other issues?
I know that you can enable google wallet in a more permanent fashion for this phone, I was just curious if this method could work and what the downsides would be.
Thanks!

I would like to setup an IFTTT.com automatic notification so i get an SMS notification as soon as Samsung announces the 4.2.2 firmware for N7100.
Anyone suggest what the best way to get that info would be? eg i can setup a custom twitter search for say N7100 for @Samsungmobile or something like that but wanted to check if anyone else has already done something similar and has a better solution - what is the most reliable RSS feed or twitter feed that I could monitor automatically so i get the update asap?
Thanks!

Does anyone know if there is currently a working solution for any type of SMS integration for Google Voice?
As we all know, the official app does A HORRIBLE job as a messaging app. I don't think they could have possibly designed it any worse if they tried. And apparently the latest update to it has broken all of the integration workaround apps as well.
This is a major issue for me because I do ALL of my texting through my google voice number - I never give out my actual cell phone number to anyone. So until I can find a better way, I feel like my $600 smartphone is a Motorola StarTac.
Can anyone PLEASE help with this??? I would be incredibly grateful
