During setup you can configure with pc and with bluetooth some file from desire to one
If you're rooted on desire, you can use titanium, if not, you can use carbon
if you just want to transfer the apk's without data, you can just copy all the apk files from data/app/ to your computer then copy them to your new phone and install them manually also.

Use titanium backup to put all your backed up apps into an update.zip, transfer it to the One and flash away to get back all your apps and data

I already sorted it last week.

Use an app called Helium. With it you can back up your apps to your phone, computer, or Dropbox. You have the option of backing up just application data, or both the appdata and the app.
When you launch Helium on the new device, you can just restore from the method of your choosing. It takes only a few moments before you have all your apps back as well as all of the applications' settings/data.

I would also recommend MyBackup Pro, i use the latest version (v2.3.4) and it works very well. It allows you to backup/restore not only Apps, but Data too (i.e. Contacts, Calendar, Alarms, Cal Log, Bookmarks, System Settings, SMS/MMS, Music Playlist, Dictionary, and Android Home [fixed in most recent version]) either to an online source or to the SD Card. You get a 30-day Trial with MyBackup (not Pro version).

Not only does Titanium backup need you to have root but it needs a working install of busybox as well.
I use Spritebackup, it backs up pretty much everything
Just a question regarding upgrading from a one ROM to another ROM, can we like preserve the applications that we had install in our phone so that we don't have to reinstall them again? Or we have to reinstall everything? What about paid applications does market automatically knows that you've purchase the app already? Thanks...

You can use an app called Titanium Backup to save copies of your applications and their settings. Then restore them back again on the new ROM. Usually the apps restore automatically anyway once you enter your google account details onto the phone, it will download all the apps you had installed previously. If you do it this way all your settings will be lost though.
And yes, market will remeber what apps you purchased.
Thanks for the quick response.. Much appreciated...

Good morning guys! Is there any way to save your market apps instead of having to download them everyone you change to a new ROM?

Titanium backup?
Probably the most useful program you will see mentioned all over these forums is "Titanium Backup". It is the best. It will back up all of your apps and the data associated with them. It will also back up your system data, which can be useful if you are restoring to a new device with the same ROM, but can break things (obviously) if you're switching from one ROM to a different one.
The free version of TB will allow you to restore your apps one at a time, and the paid version (recommended) has a batch mode, where you can restore everything in one go.
Of course TB requires a rooted device. If you are not rooted, you could use the backup feature of a program like Astro File Manager, but it is limited. It cannot back up the data for the apps (your Angry Birds high scores will be lost! ), and certain apps are "locked" and cannot be backed up unless you're rooted.
Thanks for the help! I already have the paid version of titanium backup. Just Jane to figure it out now! Lol

Is there any other option beside Titanium Backup
Yes there is a better option. It's called my backup root. It is in the play store. There is also a pro version, you don't need it unless you want it

I more thing I need to know although it's Out Of Topic but still related: can I delete/it is safe to delete directories at internal SD specially directory that start with "." (dot) ?
"App Backup and Restore" also free in the market if all u want r ur apks.
Edit: I meant play store.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Your welcome. All the apk files are stored in a folder called reware so after you make a backup you technically don't need the app to install your back up. If you paid for the app you can share it with others like flight track or whatever.
To answer your questions about the directory, as long as it is on the root of your sd card, you should be good to delete it, stay away from the system folder and data folders. If you have any questions ask away

It is somehow helpfull, but still:
It works for all user installed apps flawless.
BUT i cannot complete it for system apps! For none of them! It doesnt give me an error or so, it (the progress bar) just freezes when trying to backup sys apps....
My phone is of course rooted...

Titanium backup works fine with user or system app, you can uninstall titanium backup and delete the folder on sd card and redownload the app
