Anyone know of an application that can backup application data together with market links? (for non-rooted phones)
I know TB can do that and I already use that, but now my worry comes in when SE is releasing an update this week and we aren't sure whether we are able to root after this!
I was thinking the same.. I've backed up using mybackup pro.. backs up app and data.. not sure about market links though, but it's the best non rooted back up I've found..

Thanks for the reply.
I've used Mybackup Pro before with my X10, but I it couldn't backup the data unless you provide the "root" access to it and the restoration isn't as good as TB when it comes to rooted phone.
The biggest question here is that when the update is delivered, will we be able to root again using the Gingerbreak? If yes, then I've no problem sticking with TB, but if not then my worries start
I for one am not going to update until i know the new version can be rooted.
Other than that, i can second the recommendation to use mybackup pro. It's not a titanium replacement by any means, but it gets the essentials (sms, calendar, etc etc) done perfectly well (in fact i use it for this sort of thing in preference to TB anyway).

Yep. Agreed.
But here I'm looking at something which can backup the data of the application as well without a rooted phone and restore it in a non-rooted phone.
Any suggestion?
sounds like this needs root to work then..

Disappointed.
Most of the phones out there (Android excluded) can do this. The best example is iPhone; thought I don't like it, I like this feature. That's the whole idea for us to connect to the PC every now and then. I don't know how hard it is for the phone makers to come up with something like this to backup the whole phone, including apps and their data; while they have access to everything since they are the manufacture of the phone.
Every now and then, surely there will be software updates and they will wipe the data. We have to setup it up from scratch and it takes a long time for that and more or less you will loss the application's data; unless you are rooted and use TB to backup; provided the "root" is still available for that software update.
Previously I tried a simple application for backing up the data of the famous game "Angry Birds". This app requires no "root", but does the job pretty well. Now when a third party application can do that means surely the phone maker should be able to do more than that!!
sprite backup is what i used before titanium backup. no need for root, but it stores everything in batch backups...

Does that application have a option to backup application (from market) together with it's data? Am I able to choose which application to backup/restore? Classic example is backup "Angry Birds" with it's completed levels and it's settings.
After the update my phone has become quite slow and freezes at times for 1-2 seconds. I would like to do a factory reset to see whether it can solve the problem but only thing stopping me from doing that is I couldn't find a software (be it a PC based software or and Phone application) that could backup my phone's application together with their data!
Any more advises or help?
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???
I thought I'd share this. Its probably known but I forgot about it until today when I had to return my Note 3 because of a defective touch screen. Go on the app store and download Helium. Install the small program on your computer linked in the apps description. Plug your phone into your computer and backup your apps. It backs up to your phone, not the computer but needs the computer app if you don't have root. It'll backup the app and the data without root. Restoring works great. It does not have the same issue as Titanium Backup right now. I prefer Titanium Backup, but right now, I want to keep my phone unrooted.
Discovered some dead pixel on my screen. Since i'm still unrooted (yeah knox is a pain in the ass) i used Kies 3 to backup my data and go for a replacement. I tried to restore everything from kies then.
So for my surprise Kies simply re installed my apps without data. Twitter, Netflix and every app that needs login information asked me for my credentials. But the worst was that all my games, some Saves with 15 plus hours, i must start from scratch.
I tried to restore a second time without success. Am i doing something wrong? Or this is it? Kies cant backup the data/cache/savegames whatever from the apps? If this is the case, kies is useless.
I've actually been wondering the same thing, been looking for a decent non root backup system, that can take backups of app data (saves, login info, accounts etc)
Anyone?
Looking for an app for this also

Use helium. No root required but requires you connect to pc via USB to enable it on the device. I restored my game and app data with it. Although some apps I noticed still doesn't restore data but it's like only 2 to 3 apps out of my 50 so apps.

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).
