Sorry, I left out that it was GO Backup Pro.
TITANIUM BACKUP PRO XDA BLUETOOTH
It can also back up system data (Wifi passwords, Bluetooth IDs, etc) - just be extremely careful when restoring system data, as restoring system application data can cause issues.īy the way, those system bits (Wifi, Bluetooth, sound profiles, etc) should be automatically backed up to Google's cloud - check Settings > Backup & reset > Back up my data to make sure that's selected. TitaniumBackup works great as a scheduled backup of each app with its related data stores. I believe the general suggestion is to nandroid before flashing anything new in case a ROM/kernel flash breaks everything. This is great for getting back to a working system if everything goes to hell, but may not be as useful as a regular backup solution. Like Ghost for PCs, Nandroid pretty much creates an image of each filesystem (/system, /data, etc) which can be restored later if you run into issues. Which can I uninstall?Ĭan you provide a link to the Backup Pro app? I can't find it on the Play Store, and I'm not familiar with it, but it sounds like it's probably redundant (with Titanium Backup).Īs funkylogik mentioned, a Nandroid is essentially a snapshot of everything on your phone. Speaking of ROM, I know I have a lot of redundant apps there as well: ROM Toolbox Pro, ROM Manager, ROM Installer, CyanogenROM Downloader, etc. Not sure what that does for me, but supposedly it was installed when I rooted my phone using the casual root method from the xda forums. I'm not even sure what recovery I have installed, I think its TWRP (?). Should I just uninstall NM Pro and stick with TB and Backup Pro? (I know, I paid way more than I should have.)Īlso, would there be a benefit to flashing a new ROM? Would having a ROM like Cyanogenmod help backup all of my settings, I mean everything I have on my phone? I'm not concerned about system data, just my personalizations. What's going on? It can't seem to find any of the backups. I've been backing up to DropBox and my external SD card using TB, Backup Pro and Nandroid Manager, although when I try to "explore" my NM backups, it says save location unknown, backup type unknown, everything unknown! Makes me very nervous. Here's the thing - if I have to do another factory reset, I really don't want to go through rebuilding all of my settings, my WiFi settings, Bluetooth, etc. were backed up to my external SD card so no worries there. All my apps reinstalled themselves since I'd been using Google Sync, but although I thought I'd been backing up to DropBox, none of my settings were there, bookmarks gone, my wallpaper gone, even some updated contacts gone.
So my AT&T Galaxy S4 is rooted (4.2.2, 1337UCUAMF3) and when I first rooted, my phone started getting unstable, went into a boot loop after I froze some bloatware using TB, and I had to do a wipe.
