You myst be rooted for this. Use titanium backup to backup everything to your sdcard on the old phone. Then put that card in the new phone and restore. DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM APPS OR DATA. That will only lead to major headache.

^^^like he said. Titanium backup. I have gone thru 6 phones in the last 2 years and always restore my games data with this app. Totally worth the price.

Can you explain the tooting process? I've mostly been using titanium to debloat
I might suggest mybackup root or my backup pro

Resoting Backed Up Apps (Titanium). Easier Way ?

TITLE SHOULD READ : RESTORING. I have sausage fingers and typing on a HP MINI is a little difficult..lol. sorry.
Not sure if i'm doing something incorrectly but it gets a little tedious having to click "install" and "done" when Titanium is running the restore batch.
I have 268 apps/system data backed up and im getting tired of having to click install and done...268 times. LOL.
Anyone?

I held out for the longest time, but now I'm so happy I purchased. Sooooooo much faster and easier to deal with.
holy cow. I didnt even realize that the full version gave you the ability to do that.
Buying right now!
Thanks all!
I just use android commander to back up the apps and titanium to backup the data, then use android commander to batch restore them and titanium to batch restore the data.
Donated for full version. Worth every penny!

Probably going to get a Note 2 soon, coming from an S3

I am running CM10 on my current S3. Can I export my SMS/MMS from the S3 to the Note 2 or will I loose them? Everything else on the phone is either in the cloud or a program that I need to re-install so it's not an issue. Thanks!
Pretty sure there is a app that backs up sms

I have titanium backup and I know that does, I just don't know if it restores to a different device correctly
Search for sms backup+
Backups to gmail account just like email.
But then again you are on cm10. That might make a difference.

Use sms backup+ for texts and as for apps and such drag your titanium backup file over and restore
It will work. Titanium backup. But besure to restore asap. It will disorient the order or wipe the newer stuff. I brought my stuff from my samsung infuse. The note 2 and s3 are damn near the same phone software wise. Especially if you go aosp to aosp.
You can cloud the titanium backup via dropbox. But its a bit weird. Id just save it to the sdcard and swap.

Good info, thanks. I'll probably go to the CleanROM once I get it. So not sure its aosp to aosp, but I'll still give it a shot.
Goback up works well too, it also backs up MMS and call logs

Best way to move app data from old phone?

Hello
I just got my note 2, moving on from the Galaxy S2 running CM 10.1. I have not rooted my phone yet but tried us my backup pro. It worked except for none my apps have my old data, such as saved games. I had problems with this before with titanium pro. Has anyone tried google backup or any other suggestions?
Thanks.

Download the app on your new phone and sign in with the same account thats linked to the old phone

I do it with Titanium backup. It works fine. Apps are fairly easy to restore with data. Big games are much more troublesome. Their data are bigger and store in different areas so no so easily backed up.
If you haven't rooted yet, try Carbon. It doesn't require you to be rooted to backup apps and data.

In theory yes but unless u know what ur doing it'll never happen, as its more than just moving files around, u need to know how to decompile and recompile because the data ur looking for can't just be moved around

That would explain why using my old files caused the game to crash
Last I looked titanium backup will restore from cwm and twrp backups.

So, what are my options for backup non rooted?

I want to start fresh after the kk update. I have a profile for me and my son. I looked into helium but it has iffy results judging by feedback I read. Are there any other options? I would like to avoid root for now but since I bought square trade warranty I suppose it's not a huge deal.
I back all my stuff using KIES. Backs up my apps, snotes, system settings, etc.

helium is working fine for me but you have to connect your device to a PC and runa script to be able to save or restore anything.
price for non rooted devices and probably the reason for low feadback.
I also use it to transfer apps from my phone to tablet.
Any one tried mybackup from the playstore?
Been thinking of testing it out, but never find the time....

I've had varying success with Helium. When I do a system reset and try to restore from Helium about 80% of the apps will restore with data and the rest just fails. There's no explanation of reasoning behind which ones fail. And, when restoring all of the apps the process stops when a restore fails. I have to then start restoring after the failed app.
If you are relying on getting that data back don't count on Helium.
So apart from all the great guy stuff do search on Google for full backup android using adb. No rooting needed.
I would give you the link but I am on my phone today...

I am using it for a long time, very fast with backup & restore sms`s & call logs, but toooooo slow restoring apps.
What about Ultimate backup ?
Any way to backup screen layout? Without root that is...
