Hello everyone!
I will get my OP3 next week and i would like transfer all my app data from my non rooted phone. I have tried helium in the past, but it didn't work properly and titanium will not work because i have no root.
Do you have any suggestions which software can do that?
Cheers

Hi.
I come from an HTC Desire and I have some backups that I made with MyBackup Pro of some app's data. Relevant data like some games progresses, Libra's database, etc. MyBackupPro has an online backup and I backed the data online on the HTC Desire and tried to restore it in the Galaxy Nexus. The Galaxy Nexus recognizes the backup, shows the apps that are backed up, but when I press Restore it says that I should reboot the device and that the restore was OK almost instantaneously. Nothing is restored, no data is transferred to the phone..
Is there any other way to migrate this kind of data? Shouldn't MyBackup Pro be working on the Galaxy Nexus?
Thanks in advance
Anyone?
Maybe the app needs an update for ICS? Try to check their site to see if there's a reported problem, that's most likely the case.
Should have gone with Titanium Backup. I never had much luck with MyBackup anyway. Titanium is rock star on ICS.
The only problem Ive had so far has been restoring SMS with Pro.
Even with busy box installed its suuuper slow at the moment.
I sent them an email, I'll wait for an answer.. But I guess it is due to incompatibilities with ICS too..
AmesCell, I have always used MyBackup while using the Desire, never had a problem. Anyway, I still have the Desire and can use Titanium, but my Galaxy Nexus isn't rooted, and Titanium needs root.

Your signature says your Desire is rooted. Rooting the GN is easy. I go through 4 phones a year. I couldn't imagine doing that without Titanium.
Yes, the Desire is rooted, but I wasn't planning on rooting the GN so soon. I just got it 2 days ago and I want to see how this goes without any "hacks"..
I wouldn't have rooted the Desire in the first place if it wasn't for the lack of updates, etc... That's the main reason I bought the GN, having a more official support. Let's see, I'm almost sure that I'll root it in the future, but I don't want to do it right now.. I'll just wait for the Rerware answer to my email and see how it goes.
Thanks
Any update?
Rerware already answered, but no updates. Although I think I know what the problem is. I am only backup up app's Data, because they are already installed in the GN. But this is a "root only" feature and, for what I understood, non-rooted devices cannot restore this kind of backup, only APK backups. I asked this to the guys at Rerware to see if there is a workaround.
When I have news I'll post them here.

restoring your data/sms/backups is a "hack"
Hi,
Did you manage to find a solution to this problem? My phone is rooted and it still doesnt restore anything. Just like you said it finds the backup but then when you select the arrow next to apps to tick which ones you want to restore nothing is shown..
I need this to restore my game saves, spotify offline music etc
This happened to me with my sensation before. Somehow the backup got corrupted to I deleted it and started from scratch. Sorry to hear this happened to you it seriously sucks losing akk that stuff. What I've been doing is using from manager to restore my data partition and I've never had any issues SO FAR.
Enable advanced options, click restore and restore backup and only select the data.

I managed to solve the problem......
First my story:
I decided to install new ROM on my phone....i backed up apps and data with My Backup Pro (i bought the app)
My phone is rooted of course.
So i installed the new ROM and then i installed the My Backup Pro and started to restoring apps but i didn't get the app/data/app+data popup
and of course i couldn't restore my data from apps. i got really frustrated and browsed the web and couldn't find anything.
I started everything from the begining uninstalled all apps and figured it out that i did something wrong....and that is this that My Backup Pro doesn't work as it should without busy box...u have to install Busy Box before installing the My Backup Pro!
Follow this tutorial in order to restore your apps + data
Backing up apps on android (rooted) after installing new ROM
With My backup pro application
1. Backup apps + data
2. Backup dictionary
3. Backup all other data you want to
Install new ROM and then start restoring by this order
1. first install busy boxes i found there are two (BusyBox and BusyBox installer on the google store. install both)
2. install My backup pro and when asked to install additional options for rooted phone choose yes (now you should be able to choose between app/data/app+data to restore)
3. restore apps + data
4. thats it...enjoy!
It worked for me!! :good:
I took this phone 1 week ago. To restore my app from the other old one I used helium backup.
To restore an app and its data in a non-root phone you have to connect to the pc, start helium server and then you can do everything on phone.
After the first run I discovered that backing up and restoring too I don't have to connect to pc anymore. But I don't have rooted my p6 yet....
Is there someone that know something???
Hey guys,
A few months ago, I installed a wrong mod on my note 2. In order to fix it, I somehow managed to connect it to my laptop and install the latest update offered by Samsung. This lost me my root access. Ever since then, the phone has become very sluggish. Can take up 30seconds to open up apps like Whatsapp. What do you think I should do to fix it? Maybe a factory reset and then root it, install a custom ROM?
Also, what would be the best way to ensure everything gets backed up? I'd like to backup all my pics, contacts, whatsapp messages etc.
Thanks!

To backup apps you can use helium backup and sync it is available on play store and your pics can be backed up in your pc/sd card.
Anyone successfully get Helium to recognize the tab s 8.4 wifi (kit Kat). mine is not recognizing; pretty sure not a driver issue because adb works, and helium pc app recognize my Note 3.
on another thought, does anyone have other recommendation on app backup and restore without root? Thanks.

Both Google and Samsung provide native backup facilities already on the device.
I've been using Titanium Backup for years and I'm just now wondering if its functionalities can be achieved without root. I think Kies has an app backup option which I never tried. although I doubt it can be used to restore app backed up from another device (one of the features I need from TB).
Hello to the community,
I am quite new here at OP9P (had several Samsung and one Huawei smartphone before) and I have a question:
How can I backup my complete system (incl. all apps and data) on my OP9P (not rooted) with Orginal software (OOS LE2123_11_C.48) and restore it if necessary? So far I have not found a solution while searchin the net (only with rooted phone)....
It would be nice if someone from the community could give me a tip (maybe a tutorial)
Many thanks already...
Greetings from hot Bavaria/Germany
Assuming you are talking about a system image, you don't need root, but you need a custom recovery for this, which in turn requires an unlocked bootloader.
If you haven't unlocked the bootloader yet, be aware that when you unlock it the 1st time, everything on your device will be wiped. For Samsung devices, this process will trip the Knox counter permanently, and void warranty.
With root, you'll be able to backup individual apps and their data.
In short, without root, there is no way to backup app data from within the system. And without a custom recovery, you cannot take a system image.
Android Backup is pretty limited without root. iOS backups are better in this aspect because you can backup all app data.
Thx for your fast reply... This is what i thought of too... Big thx anyway bro
actually, the only known workaround to backup all app data without root is with D2D transfer apps like
Clone Phone (still that won't help you on bricked device)
How do you access the D2D (Device-to-Device) Data Transfer functionality?
So, as of Android 12, rightfully so: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/12/backup-restore For apps running on and targeting Android 12 and higher: Specifying android:allowBackup="false" does disable backups to Google Drive, but doesn’t...

Root phone?
Before rooting, you have to unlock bootloader. Doing that will wipe everything. What will he backup then?

I use FTP Server Pro along with Filezilla Client on my computer too for non-app data. i.e. Everything else. If you're rooted then you can poke about in system folders too.
Once you copy everything into a folder, it makes it easy to backup/restore the whole storage.
