Every time I install something HTC Backup pops up and asked to backup my settings to their cloud. I know this disables Google backup which I have been using for years. Furthermore there does not appear to be a way to disable the damn thing!
Suggestions please...

In settings, I can
1st: Choose if I want to use Google or HTC for Backing Up
2nd: Disable the whole automated backup process.

Freeze or uninstall with titanium backup. You could always restore it again (as long as you back it up before uninstall.)

This is working great so far , thanks!
I'm with the OP on this. It happens whenever I install an app from the play store. Even though you can select "don't ask me again" after hitting NO it still pops up next time. Shame you have to void your warranty to be able to freeze the dam thing.

Ok so, I'm looking to change my Google account, right after a full wipe and everything. But i want to keep all my apps and their data. So my question is...what do I need to select in Titanium to do this? I tried not restoring system data, but that didn't work. So i guess I'm wondering if there's some way I can still get most of my stuff back without getting the Google account settings back.

You go into titanium backup press menu/batch then pick the second option backup all user apps.
After you are backup after your wipe open titanium backup press menu/batch then pick the 9th option, restore missing apps with data then you should be good to go

A backup is a great idea but the problem i encounter is that as soon as i log back into my google account it starts to download all the apps again anyway.
Any idea how to stop that happening? Having a solid backup would be way easier than wasting all that mobile data every time i flash a new ROM, which is often.

Forgot to add that as u log back in to your Google account after a new flash, if its prompts u that Google is able to restore apps and settings for u, decline it.

I need to return my phone for a replacement through amazon, and I'm wondering what the best way to backup my phone is? I've tried searching around on XDA and it's a bit overwhelming. HTC and google offer some sort of backup but I'm not sure what is being saved and there are other threads for different phones. If possible, I'd like to just be able get it set up where it's just like I never got a new phone with all the files and settings the same way. Also to have apps backed up too.
My phone is NOT rooted.
Thanks
If you are not rooted, make sure in settings you have enabled Google backup. Once you get your new phone and login with Google account select restore and it will auto download all your apps. But it will not download the app data. There are other solutions like backup apps like helium and titanium backup. I know helium works without root not sure about titanium backup. If you are rooted titanium backup is the best out there and it will restore all the apps and it's data.
The stock Google backup and reset is not good, but that's all we have currently. Hopefully it's better in the next version and we can restore app data as well from Google restore.

Is there an easy way to backup files? I suppose I could just transfer them to a PC but if there's a way I can do it with like with Helium that you suggested, that'd be great.
What about phone settings? Will helium take care of that as well?
Thanks

Is this an app, or is this native to my phone? I see an HTC Backup for HTC One in the Google Play Store

Is there a way to backup your accounts, so when you wipe the phone, it's easy to reconfigure?

He was asking about backing up accounts.I do not think that can be done with Titanium.

I have titanium. I could create new zip file, but I'm just looking for bare phone setup. Besides, no recovery yet for Sprint variant.

I don't know of any way to back up accounts.
If you have a recovery installed and are rooted you can back up the entire phone but I don't know if just restoring accounts is possible using anything.
I feel your pain. For my company I have many email accounts. It is a pain to add them when I go to a new phone or something.

With TWRP, can I back up the apps, make a full wipe, and restore all of them without having problems with clean instalation? Or is better titanium backup? Or is better download all apps again of Internet?
TWRP will back up the APKs, but can't back up some of the app data saved to the /data/media folder. If you restore a nandroid after wiping the /data partition, you'll find that some of your apps will have been effectively reset. It's better to use TiBU to save it.
Backup up apps using Gmail
I think it's the best way

Don't go on that route. You may get banned from XDA.
TiBu really is worth its price, especially if you use it a lot. And somehow I have a feeling that most people on XDA forums do need an app like this quite often.
