[HELP] Backup and Restore App for MiniCM - XPERIA X8 Android Development

Hi, I'm now using the MiniCM rom. Everything works fine and its a really really awesome ROM.
MiniCM thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964223
But I'm facing ONE deadly problem, There's no "Backup and Restore" app in it.. I've tried searching the net for the .apk but most of them, after installing, shows a "LOCKED" as I'm not running the official ROM..
Someone please give me a link to the cracked one that will work for my MiniCM ROM? I know there's one, I used it before , but deleted it after i changed back to stock ROM. Now I changed back to MiniCM and I really really need the app..
Please help thanks for your time

First of all you were posting on the wrong section. This should be posted in General Section. Second posting of warez here are not allowed, with regards to your query you can search for titanium backup, to backup/restore your application, but if you want to backup your system use xrecovery for that! Hope it this helps.

Alright, but all my contacts were backed up using Backup and Restore, i need the same app again to restore my contacts.. Titanium backup couldn't do that.

you should have backup your contacts using titanium backup or just sync it with google..its easier that way

Yup just sync it with google or you can export it to SD. In froyobread the fix for Restore and Backup is by just editing build.prop, coz dx uses Sh!t instead of Sony, and that causes the problem in Restore & Backup, i dont know with MiniCM

I have very little knowledge about this kinda stuff man. I don't even know what's build.prop :/

you can always reflash to stock 2.1 rom, restore your contacts using Backup and Restore, then sync it with google account before flashing any custom ROM.
ps: and you posted this in the wrong section, and you should do a search first since I think I've seen someone posted backup and restore apk somewhere.

So what do you all suggest I do now?

Google myphoneexplorer.

OR you can do manually using this steps (dont need internet access to save your contacts)
1. goto "Contacts"
2. press menu button -> Import/Export
3. select "Export to SD card"
it will saved as 001.vcf (you can save to your PC if u want)
to restore, using same steps 1-2 and for steps 3 select Import from SD card

Use Backup everything, it backs up everything except the contacts, you have to do this manually.

if you can't find a working Backup and Restore apk, then I'd say you should reflash to stock eclair (or restore an eclair xrecovery backup if you made one), and restore your contacts.
then, you can rebackup your contacts again using any of our suggestions (google sync, export to sd card, backupeverything, or myphoneexplorer).

[Q] Best way to backup current setup?

Hey XDA peeps!
Well, i knows noobs are not that well seen here, so im not really fond of asking this question (which prolly has been answered several times before), but now ive searched for quite some time, and checked alot of threads (looking thru many pages), havent found a good answer yet. So here goes
How do i backup my current setup before i apply a new theme? Im thinking about SMS/Contacts/Pictures/LauncherPRO + icons and so on? I need it if:
1. I dont like the theme
2. My phone gets bricked and i need to do a complete swipe.
Thanks in advance..
The good way is to backup by xrecovery it will backup everything or
you can also you launcher pro backup utility seen in preferences menu
for sms you can you backup and restore
If i use the xRecovery for backup, will it create a zip file or? And does it include backup of SMS, contacts etc. - or do i need a seperate program for that?

[Q] CM7 to void.final

if someone knows how to restore data from CM7 to void, pls. help. the thing is, i did a backup of mik's CM7 using CWM and then flashed void. the flashing was successful,.i'm just wondering if there is anyway for me to restore the apps from CM7 to void,.i tried advance restore from CWM (restore data) but when i rebooted, it was stuck on devoid logo..thank you.

You cant restore the CM7 system apps to devoid final. You can restore the apps/games that you downloaded to the devoid final though titanium backup. Just dont restore apps like google maps/talk/ etc which comes preinstalled.
PS: hows the devoid final rom ?
That's right, Use Titanium Backup. I haven't flashed void.final yet because of all the hassle of restoring apps and data.
Firs things first... use Titanium Backup or something similar along with you nand backups. This should make restoring apps easy. Run the backup batch and then the restore batch on the new rom. I do not recommend restoring system data, it may cause faults in the system, especially when going from 2.2 to 2.3 and back.
So, man, restore the nand backup of your CM7, use Titanium Backup batch, re-flash your void.final and then restore the Titanium Backups. That should do it. This procedure is a must if you want to test custom roms, or just flash often.
Cheers!

Mate, better get used to Titanium Backup, it's a life saver if you like modding.
Word of advice: update your backups, and (this is an important one) backup (copy on HDD) your Titanium backups (you can find them on /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/)!

Yeah. Getting Pro with better scheduling (plus Dropbox sync) is worth it, IMHO. Also, the backups are much faster with Pro.

[Q]Titanium Backup Question

Hi guys,
I am considering flashing a ROM to my phone (something with I have not yet done) but obviously wouldn't like to lose my apps, SMS, etc.
Is it possible to download titanium backup on the S5830i, flash a new ROM and then restore everything to how it was on the stock ROM?
Many thanks.
Titanium backup is good and it works 2 but it quiet slow processs.... And for me it sks.... I use android commander and install all apps back to mobile via pc and use myphoneexplorer to backup messages and other stuff... U should try it... It wont back app data.. But for me it works take almost 7 minutes for all process

This section is for android development. Don't ask questions here!
U cannot restore stock rom with titanium backup, for that install clockwork recovery mod and backup your current rom(a must step before flashing any custom rom)
U can install titanium backup on your phone, u can backup all your apps using it and then restore those apps once you are on custom rom.
I guess this is the wrong section.
Sent from my GT-S5830i using Tapatalk 2
If you use titanium backup to backup your apps...when you flash your new rom, restore using the app+data option and it will re-install the app and restore it the the specific time when you backed it up. Ie: coin dozer lvl 10 (backup)..restore app (lvl 1)..restore app+data (lvl 10)
Or Dark Summoner..you can player migrate to another device / rom..but it takes a week before you can do it again. If you backup DS with titanium..amd restore it when running ypur new rom..you wont have to wait 5 days to transfer: )

First, as someone mentioned, it is in wrong section, please refer to guides. It should be in S5830i General Section.
Now for the TB, you can use titanium backup to backup apps + data ( what u done in the app, like saving levels/stuff in games) and restore them in the new ROM, however you CAN'T backup SMS as far as I know.
If you want a nicer solution you can use CWM and do a NanDroid backup ( a backup of the whole Stock ROM with sms and apps and everything) Incase you fail installing the custom ROM so u can revert back to the one you had before
It is possible to backup sms and call logs. I use "sms backup & restore" and "call logs backup & restore" app in the market. Its free a d backup perfectly. Not a single info missing.
For contacts, I cant find an app that backup perfectly as it is at the first place. I use "backup contacts". But lost contact pictures and contact group.
*if there's someone here know any app that can put contacts back into groups after restore from backup, please tell me. Thanks! ^_^

[Q] [Help] Titanium backup

Hey guys i'm running a custom rom and want to update it.
But it has included a automatic clear data.
So I want to back-up all my apps+data , i also want to keep my contacts etc
I have now tb pro. But i don't know which one i need to choose i also don't know how to restore it after i installed the new rom.
After installing new rom tb pro is also gone right?
Can you guys please help me ?
Use batch backup to backup all user apps + system data. Also you'll need the tb apk for re installing after flashing

Indeed, just click on 'Back up' to back up your apps and their data, but only on your own user apps, never system apps. After flashing, install TB from the Play Store and click 'Restore'.

There is no need to backup your contacts, they are automatically backed up by your google account. As soon as you sign in on your new rom it will sync your contacts for you.
If you want to backup your apps you should just use the batch icon in top right and then choose the section for backup of user apps and it will backup your apps and appdata.
On your new simply re-install TB and then use restore option. If it doesnt find your backup location/show backups in batch you will need to go to preferences and choose backup folder location again.
To do all this silently (not click install on each app) you will need to be rooted and have pro version.
PS. This is not a galaxy s2 topic. These types of topics belong in the general/android section as its not device specific.

...there are several ways to do that..
apps
- through tb..normal backup->restore..update.zip...your choice..
- or any other b&r app
contacts
- sync via google
- import/export trough app (.vcf vcard)
- through tb..backup&restore Contacts data then reboot
[Kontakte 4.1.2-eng.root...]
& optional , cause i don´t know atm if needed..[Kontakte-Speicher 4.1.2-eng.root...]
cwm-backup to be save :angel:
yes..at the new rom you will have to install tb first in order to use it.
dowload the apk from authors website to your external sdcard
.u could do.
dowload titanium-backup-apk to your phone..
sync your contacts with google..batch-backup all inc sys apps+data..
make a cwm-backup..copy cwm & titanium backup folders to a safe place..
do your rom-update
do the appropriate settings and install tb..restore what you need and have fun :victory:
Or if you've bought titanium backup you could restore it from store after installation

Allright thanks everybody, it worked

Try this one: clear contacts data
Sync contacts to Google in future....so much easier imho
Do not back up or restore any system data with TIBU. This has always been known. Use Google to back them up.

You maybe able to export them to an XML and then save it as a text doc to re-add them manually

You can actually use .xml method in titanium, I always use that for call log, messages and WiFi settings, very reliable on those, wether that option exists for contacts I'm not sure

That is not awailable for contacts. I managed to get my numbers to an excel file, but cant find the owner names of them.
One other possible suggestion is nandroid back or flash back to your old Rom, try and restore them, then Google synch them

What do you mean got stuck? Did it restore Ok or has your nandroid failed? If it restored but doesn't boot try formatting system and data then restoring your backup. Failing that reflash a stock version of your old rom then restore your data, sync with Google then reflash new rom and let Google restore contacts.
