How to Backup before flashing?

I am about to root my phone and it says is will wipe the device... How can I backup my EVO before rooting? Looks like nandroid requires root already
Anyone know how to backup before rooting?
Correct, you need root to do a nandroid backup.
If you just want to backup your settings and apps, then do the first step in The Biles root method.
To summarize:
Enable developer tools
Go to unrevoked.com/m/
Download the app and install the app
Open the app. This will give you temporary root access
Open the market and download Titanium Backup
Open Titanium Backup, click on "Problems?" and upgrade whatever it says needs to be upgraded.
Open titanium backup again, hit menu, then hit batch operation. Select all apps and system settings and run the backup.
Now when you're done rooting, you can reinstall titanium backup and it will restore all your apps and their settings, it's realllly nice. Just note that immediately after you restore using titanium backup you need to reboot your phone for the settings to show up. Don't do anything else, just do a reboot.

Restore Wireless AP settings from Titanium backup

Is it possible to restore just the wireless settings of an AP or all AP's from a full Titanium backup.
I've deleted one by mistake and it was a right pain setting up.
If you've done a full backup you should have an entry called "Wi-Fi Access Points" in the Backup/Restore tab. Clicking on it an on restore should restore them.

[Q] Titanium Backup

Say I am on a rom and want to switch to a different one. How do I backup just my apps from from [Rom A] and then reload them to [Rom B] after flashing? What selections do I choose within Titanium backup?
From [Rom A] I choose the middle button "Backup/Restore" then select Menu > Batch. Then select the Run next to "Backup all user apps". Is this correct?
Then after flashing a new Rom I go into Titanuim Backup and there is no option to just restore the 60 apps. Am I missing something?
Thanks
In Titanium (assuming you have paid version)
Menu | Batch
Backup all user apps + system data
root, wipe, flash rom, etc.
In new Rom, go to Market, download Titanium and open app
Menu | Batch
Restore missing apps with data
Restore missing apps + all system data (select data only as you already restored the apps...not sure if you can do this step in place of previous, but I'm superstitious and this is how I roll)
I would just do a backup of all apps and not the system info...some roms are tweaked differently and restoring the system settings could give you bad results.
I will give that a try, thanks for the replies!

Instal new rom but keep apps/settings

Hey,
I want to install a fresh new rom because i messed some things up. But i want to keep my apps and settings.
I came across titanium backup but i don't understand anything of it and it's not working
And i have a full nandroid backup so if i still mess things up i can always restore it.
So, how do u guys backup your stuff, then do a full wipe before flashing a new rom and restore all your apps, data and settings?
titanium backup wont back up your contacts unless you backup them to google
backup user apps and wifi access points accouts and settings etc
its not that hard to use.

I have my contacts synct with my google account but with titanium backup i have to backup every little think once at the time and i can't restore them when i have installed my new rom.
don't have to back up one at a time with titanium back up. if you press menu, then batch you will see different choices of apps you can back up. select an hit run
or you can create a update.zip which can be flash by clockwork recovery
menu > more > create update.zip

Backup sense and system program settings

Hi,
Can you please advise me how I can backup sense + settings of system program on my phone? As I understand TB haven't done it. :-\
you could go for MyBackup Pro, it can backup apps, android home, system settings text messages...well everything. It's pretty pimp!
TB will backup and restore all user & system settings and data. The only thing you will have to do is re-place any none sense widgets after the restore.
