[Q] System dump - Motorola Droid RAZR

Hi all,
How do I create a full system dump of my Razr Maxx?
I wanted to use dd so I installed the SDK on my PC, accessed adb shell and then got lost because I see too much file systems.
Can you help me?
Edit:
I'll use dump as backup before upgrading to Jellybean if Titanium backup will fail.
Thanks

[Q] How to backup your android tablet.

I want to root my HP slate 7 , but i am worried that if it goes wrong , i dont have any backup.
Can anyone help me on how to take a backup image of my tablet and how to use it in case something goes wrong during rooting ??
You have fastboot?
Dump system and boot image then you can glass or from there
Use adb or terminal emulator
First of all search if anyone has uploaded the stock system or not
And dont be scared of root
Root your phone, install recovery and then backup w/o any modifications or flash
If u dont have system then continue below
If in adb type adb shell, if emulator then skip this step
Use command
dd if=/block/to/system of=/sdcard
Replace block/to/system with the block of system
Press :highfive: thanks :good: if helped

[Q] Android system dump to emulator

Hi All,
I'm trying to launch a system dump in Android emulator. I have the dump itself ('boot_signed.img' and 'system' folder). If I am not mistaken, Android emulator requires system.img file and a couple of another .img files. As far as I understand, the dump should be packed somehow to get 'system.img' as an output. Could you please help me to clarify a solution of my problem? I use mac so I think the most part of linux tools is available for me.
Thanks in advance.

Trying to recover the tinder database file from a note 4 at&t cannot be rooted

any tricks to get this with a stock phone with no root access?
/data/data/com.tinder/databases/tinder.db
this failed it looks like a tinder updated removed the flag_allow _backup
adb backup -f my_backup.ab -apk -shared com.tinder, changed it so i did not need to dump the full phone..
http://blog.avianblue.net/2015/01/recovering-tinder-messages-from-users.html
this failed never to be this easy..
/data/data/com.tinder/databases $ cp tinder.db /sdcard
With APK Easy Tool v1.38 portable,
i created a new apk from the original on another root android device with the allow backup flag added but in test the original database is lost due to an uninstall being needed.
Thanks in advance

Extract from "adb pull" backup?

Hi.
tl;dr
How can I extract from a backup made with "adb pull" ? Thank you.

Any help would really be appreciated here...
I have a backup that was made by booting to Recovery, then running:
Code:
adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0 my_phone_mmcblk0_$(date +%Y%m%d).adbimg
How can I recover the contents, please?
According to fdisk, the backup archive (i.e. the .adbimg file) contains a GPT partition table, and 12 partitions (of varying sizes) of type "Microsoft Basic Data". The largest of them is 11.5G; I'm guessing that's where the data I'm looking for are.
TIA
EDIT: If it's relevant, I use Linux and macOS, and I'm comfortable with the command line.
Look to the XDA forum for inspiration.

I read that, thank you. But it's not the same, is it(?)
adb backup != adb pull
(...Or am I wrong?)
