[APP] SkinZone.org Backup and Restore v2.0

A simple Backup & Restore program for the following:
*Opera 10 Logins
P.I.M. aka your Contacts, Calander
Call Log
your My Documents Folder
your Wisbar Advanced Desktop themes
Garmin XT
and....
You can add options you would like to see on the backup list by posting to this thread.
Works perfectly with Sashimi
*******
Whats new?
version 2.0 now adds the ability to add or remove items that you dont use.
Example, if you dont use Garmin, you have the ability to not include it in your list of backupables.
However, I only have options i use or once used. So if you would like options added, please tell me what they are and i will add the option right away.
My Inspiration was....
Well I created a program that was originally intended to backup my Wisbar Advanced Desktop theme to my Sashimi folder.
Since I do alot of tweaking on it, I always wanted to have the most recent changes, incase I had to do a hard reset.
Then I started thinking.
What about a "Restore" option.
this would allow an undo option.
Example) you deleted a page by mistake, or you totally messed something up.
just restore your theme and your back to where you were.
***Notes
1) This is ApptoDate compatible
If you do not have ApptoDate installed, it will install it on its own.
2) Your storage Card must be called "Storage Card"
3) This is Sashimi Compatible
However you do not need to use sashimi for this to work
4) You must have mortscript installed
You can find that here
http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=download&action=view&entry=65
5) This DOES NOT overwrite your themes, this will first delete the theme completely, then copy your theme over.
This is done so that your not adding, and adding, features to a theme that do not belong.
Example, You deleted your page games.
but your last back up had the page games.
If We did not delete the entire theme, the page games would still be there plus your newest theme.
6) This does not copy over images, as people store their images in various locations.
9) The more themes in your THEME directory, the longer it will take.

ANY suggestions are welcome
How to use,
Simply run the program.
Chose your selection.
it will add everything to your sashimi folder.
If you dont use sashimi, it will still back up to your storage card.
Now if you do a hard reset, sometimes your contacts wont show.
Simply run the program, Restore PIM and voila, your contacts and calander are restored.

Backing Up/ Restoring for Newbies using TiBu

http://exzacklyright.blogspot.com/2012/07/thinking-of-flashing-rom-wiping-your.html
Thinking of flashing a ROM? Wiping your phone? Here's how to backup and restore!
I REALLY recommend buying titanium backup. There's a reason it's one of the TOP paid apps available for android. Note that you have to be rooted to use it!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
1) When you open up titanium backup check and make sure it says you're rooted.
2) Click Schedules to routinely backup your phone. As you can see I have 3 schedules that run daily.
Redo backups for modified data: This backs up the data for your apps. For example... if you are on Level 35 in Angry Birds, doing this will save that data. When you have to reinstall your ROM for whatever reason and have to re-install Angry Birds, the data that states you've passed all the levels prior to Level 35 will be restored.
Backup all new apps and newer versions: It only backs up the apps that have been updated from the Android Market Place since the last backup and adds any new apps you've downloaded as well.
Delete backups for un-installed apps: This deletes backups for apps I've uninstalled during the day. I wouldn't want titanium backup to restore all the apps I've deleted and don't want anymore would I?
3) If you're using a launcher such as Apex or Nova, I also recommend backing up those settings in the launcher itself just in case Titanium Backup doesn't.
4) Now is the time to download your respective ROM and Kernels. Put these on your SD card somewhere easy to find. All ROMS depend on the phone you're using. They're not universal. The two major sites you can find ROMS and Kernels for your device are XDA and RootzWiki.
5) All you have to do now is boot into Clockwork Recovery. From here you wipe system data, Cache, and Dalvik Cache. You can also click "Mounts and Storage" and format the respective folders in there such as system and boot.
6) Once flashed reboot the phone and make sure it boots.
7) You can click the about section in the phone settings to check the radio/kernel/ROM/android version you're on.
8) The first thing I do after signing into my Google account is opening up the play store and installing titanium backup.
9) From TiBu, Click the check mark in the top right to access the batch options. Scroll down to restore and click "Restore missing apps and data". You use this option because restoring system data can cause conflicts with the ROM. After the batch install is done your phone should be read to go!
Note: I flash stuff often which is why I backup so often!

[Q] Using 4.1.2 NANDROID backup in 4.2

Greetings!
Today, I got noticed that Yakju 4.2 Android came out. I wanted a clean install to avoid bugs so I used Nexus Root Toolkit and did a Flash Stock + Unroot to restore my GN to factory and wipe out everything. Then I installed 4.2 with the same program, using the .tgz from the official site and md5 from there too.
Now I want to restore all my data and previous aps from 4.1.2 times and I can't, Nexus Root Toolkit just don't apply the backup and I'm here without any of my music, apps, contacts, photos, everything...
The question is, How can I backup all my data from 4.1.2 using that Nandroid backup?

Dont restore app data from 4.1.2.
I dont know how to restore from nandroid, but if the nandroid format is img, you can use unyaffs to extract the file and manually move it to your device.
If it contain app data, ignore the app data. Move music, images and anything you want except app data, it may causing a problem in the future. For contacts why you dont just sync it with your google account?

I don't know how to do that... Inside the folder of my nandroid backup are the following files:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

how are you restoring? You need something like Titanium Backup to restore individual apps and data (apps should restore automatically thru the Play Store). You could always restore a 4.1.2 nandroid, get Titanium Backup, backup all USER apps and data, flash 4.2, download Titanium Backup again, and then restore. This will require root.

Question why can't backup applications in MIUI backup?

Hello.
Why is no applications backed up when backing up in miui backup?
What good is such an application if it can't back up any one application?

In Settings>Xiaomi account>Xiaomi Cloud u can make a back up that include all/most of ur apps. It's useful when u flash stock ROM only.

You didn't understand me at all.
I have a stock rom.
When backing up, every application is not backed up, only an exclamation mark appears next to them and that's it.
The backup should be 1.5 gb, but only 34 mb will be saved.

I just showed u another way to do a back up (which will restore most of ur apps) instead using miui backup (which is an app, I guess). If doesn't suit u, no problem Btw, I can do nothing to change what miui backup does, so that's why i suggested another way.

Don't bother with miui app backups, they'll just break everything if you restore them after flashing a ROM.
Use google cloud backups for settings and some app data for restoring stuff after a flash or reset.

Hi, just an additional question: does this MIUI backup works with weekly developer eu ROM ?
Thanks

It doesn't work because Miui is a real s h i t

MyPhoneExplorer works fine backing up apps at once. To restore then we need to restore one by one by using myphoneexplorer "Aplications" or copy the all directory to the phone and then install one by one.

Swish is suppose to do this but I do believe you must be rooted for a full backup

Same here. totally frustrating. Why " Not supported" ?

with xiaomi.eu ROM 12.5.9 the Backup works.
I think higher versions are buggy
