OK, so I used to have a Galaxy S2 and was wondering if there is any way that I could use my backups of games from those files that are on my computer and put them on my nexus? Is it OK to restore those backups with data to my nexus or will that cause some sort of stability issues? I just want to restore some game data's not any system apps. Thank you in advance.

I've restored several titanium backups from my Gnex to my vibrant and vice versa. Everything went fine with no problems what so ever. Just don't restore system apps because that will most definitely cause some fc's.
i had no problem restoring apps+data from my nexus s to galaxy nexus. no issues afterwards..
Same here, from Atrix to GN, no problem.
Cool! thank you all for the quick responses

hey guys, im on caulks ics fb27, i made a backup before leaving gingerbread. i would like to know if i could restore the data through cwm? thakns
I would recommend not doing this. It may work but most likely will cause a bunch of app FCs.

When I go ICS back to GB i just flash back to a cwm rom and then reboot to recovery and restore from there.

No you're best using something like titanium backup on your gingerbread rom

I only restored data on poweramp and handcent but alot of things will be buggy if you restore data
It's like unprotected sex it might cause problems later on
restoring data on user apps that are compatible with ICS shouldn't be a problem. when I first switched from gb to fb27 I accidently restored all my user apps and got bootlooped. it was because I had some apps that weren't compatible. what I ended up doing was installing my apps from the market (incompatible apps either don't show up in the market at all or wont install) then I went back to titanium and restored the data from the apps that were compatible.
I also used the label feature to mark the apps that aren't compatible with ICS so I can keep them in case I go back to gb but know not to restore them on future ICS builds.

Epic 4G Touch perfected by Calk!
I've done it, didn't have any problems I believe. But now I just rather format data, and use titanium to restore missing apps with data. That's much better way.

Just like the title says, Anyone know the best way to transfer saved game data and other app settings from one phone to the other?

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

So I've been using titanium backup now for about 3 years. Sometime between then and now Google has included a service that backs up your apps and app data for you, and restores them on your new or freshly wiped phone.
My question is does it really backup all your app data? I'm assuming it just re-downloads the apps from the play store and restores that apps data? And how often does android backup your apps data?
Some clarification on how this works would be great. Thanks.

Yeah want to know this too!
And how I'm able to delete these apps, because every time I accidentally leave the box ticked, it downloads apps I don't use... Like freakbook, and its pretty annoying, that's why I don't use it anymore...

The app have to support application backup for it to work.

I, too, would love to learn more about managing what's stored in Google from our phones. I've been on Android for years now, and can't imagine how much crap is up there that would be worthless today. Having an option to review your backed up apps and data with the ability of pruning would be wonderful.

A Google search has found this
you'll probably run into issues when switching roms, if you're going to restore system data everytime.
So far I have settled for a Nandroid backup and mybackup from the market.
Titanium serves the purpose as well. Although I'm not much of a fan yet.

Titanium backup, only use it to backup and restore user apps though, use gapps an google playstore to restore system apps.

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.
