Switching to a new rom - quickest way?

Hello!
I want to get a new Rom on my Desire.
Currently i have leedroid 2.2 (froyo-rom) installed and i want to go for redux (2,3 gingerbread).
Last time I've changed a rom is quit a long time ago,
so I dont really know what is the best method at the moment.
I want to get my current settings as quick as possible, so I need a good Backuptool and a good "plan".
Important:
-sms
-emailaccount settings
-apps WITH appstore connection (updates etc)
-calender
-folderorganizer settings, widgets, and launcherpro settings
-contacts
Is there an "allround"-app, for saving all these settings in an easy way?
Whats the quickest solution for changing a rom?
Thanks for help!

There easiest way for backing up most of your data is to actually use your Google Account. So when creating contacts make sure it's created as a Google contact and the same for your calendar. They will get backed up to your account and will get restored when you sync on a new rom (this has saved me a lot of time). You could try something like Titanium Backup although I don't know what you can backup other than apps. There are SMS backup apps on market.

Yes best way is to use google acct to backup your contacts and calender.
For SMS - there are many apps in market which can backup in yr gmail (but not sure of restore) or can back up on your SD card. You can restore it later.
So generally,
I do nandroid backup(just if something goes wrong),
after that titanium backup (which saves all apps so you need to reinstall and saves your progress in games)
Launcherpro settings can also use back up to SD card (i dont use lancherpro but I do remember having that setting) which can you restore later.
So just download new ROM, wipe everything and flash it and 1st restore titanium backup and later restore your SMS and launcherpro settings.

Use SMS Backup + backs up/restores all SMS/MMS to your Gmail account for free.

You can also use titanium backup. But note that some settings won't work on a different rom especially if switching from 2.2 to 2.3.x.so be Caucasus when restoring.

App data for backup/restore

Hi there,
Its the first time that i've had a Samsung phone, coming from iPhone > HTC ONE X > SN2.
i havent put in a MicroSD card yet, as its on its way to me soon.
So i presume that all the app that i downloaded from play store is stored on the OS memory?
In this case how can i put my whatsapp backups to? so that it can detect it and restore accordingly?
also need to do the same thing for my SMS & Call log apps.
help~

Use titanium backup to backup the files. Install TB on your new device and backup one thing (a single one you want). This will create a titaniumbackup in your root of the sd card.
In your old device search for the same folder and copy all the files there. Paste the in the new folder created on ur n7100.
Now, if you launch TB you should see the backups there, simply restore first only app and after only data. Thats it.
Don't forget to say thanks if this post helped you.

Youre telling the Root way to the dude...he isnt rooted, or may not want to root.
@OP: you will have to put the backups to /sdcard/whatsapp/databases
And for sms backup and restore, there is an app SMS Backup and Restore from Market. You can use thay

My contact was on google accounts, so they came back with sync
For call logs, SMS and MMS, i use MyBackup PRO or Titanium Backup (very useful, but not a very friendly app and root needed)
For apps, i use again MyBackup PRO or Titanium Backup, but if the phone is not root, you can't restore apps setting along with the app. And even with root, some games setting can't be restored. It's the case with all my Gameloft Game, i restore game, setting and even the big game data folder, but when i start the game, it's an all new game that start
It's really a pity there is no standard backup and restore app in Android, and that you must root your phone to do such a useful task But yeah, Android is for geek

[Q] Titanium Backup Help?

I synced my Titanium Backup to Google Drive because I knew I was going to fully wipe my SD. Now I'm trying to restore my apps/data, and I'm having a bit of trouble. It shows about half of the apps that I have backups of (to be more specific, apps that on my previous ROM I had uninstalled). When I look into the folder, I see all the backup of apps that I need (com.xxxx.xxxx). Anyone have any idea what's going on/solutions?

Titanium Backup Pro Not Recognizing Backup Files

I recently had to wipe CM14 since it was buggy. I went back to CM13 but I lost all my apps. I installed TB Pro and I want to do a full restore of all my apps and data. I found the right directory in the preferences but TB is not listing the apps for which I have a backup. The backup files are encrypted. I also have a copy saved to a cloud storage service but the 2.5gb of data is always on my phone.
I can't figure out how to restore to the same phone with the same OS and the same device ID. Help!

RESOLVED. I had a filter selected! Duh....

Titanium backup reporting insufficient space

Hi, I've just flashed LOS 17.1 to my Swift, switch from LOS 16. All's well apart from Titanium. Wishing to start with a clean slate I backed up the TBs backups by copying them to my PC. I deleted the TB backup files on the phone and then reinstalled TB (only way I could find to set the backup list to zero).
I'm using Magisk for SU state. Can anyone please advise of a fix for this?
Found a solution, I deleted the titanium folders in the phone and SD memory spaces, erased the date from the Titanium backup App. All is now working.
