Hi,
I run the pixel 6 and I wondered if I can restore my hardware as an image? I mean, when I used the back up / restore from Google drive , I got my contacts, apps but I still need to re download my apps, choose themes, setup about security, fingerprints, schema, Google pay etc.... Is it possible to skip all those things and upload a complete back up as an image, like I do with openwrt and firmware on router?
Thank you
Short answer: No. Longer answer: You can backup apps and their settings with the likes of Swift Backup, but that requires root and the remaining stuff still needs to be set up again.
Last time I restored my phone through Google I selected to restore all apps/contacts/settings and it basically restored the phone close to 100%. What was left for me to do was minimal.

if we ever get TWRP as a custom recovery, this will be easy.

Only if you're rooted for app data but TiB will not restore system settings. Have you ever used it?

I was thinking of something else. My mistake.
edit: @james8076 Even on a full wipe / factory reset most of the settings are restored including downloaded apps from the PS, text and phone logs. What isn't restored is app data like games along with some passwords that are not saved in Google.
@vandyman I used Appdash once but unless you are rooted it will not restore app data if I recall correctly.
The whole restore process isn't as difficult as it used to be even unrooted and bl locked. I can usually do the whole thing after PS downloads the apps in about a half hour or less. But... it's still a pain no doubt about that.

Hi, I am currently using a YP-G70 INLT device, I tried out a bunch of ROM, like AOKP and CM9 and MIUI and stuffs, but when I need the fully working device with camera,bluetooth,etc I returned to Stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 firmware!
Problem is, after the first restore and a very very long boot, it always show up the device set up and no root, the apps are still there, but I have to set up Google Play again, set my name and my Google Accounts. And there are NO ROOT!, I can't use Titanium Backup, Root Explorer,...
I turned off my device and restore it again, it works completely, it's always like that, needs twice restore for rooted,working device!
It wastes a lot of time, so any idea to fix this some how!?
I had this problem with my US, too. I think it's caused by trying to wipe it and then restore. I found that if the only thing you do in CWM is restore, it works the first time.

This is not exactly a problem but it is how the Android system is designed. The first restore only restores most of the important system files and a few other bits. The rest of the data is restored on the second restore. The only way to fix this is to completely redesign the android system and make your own mobile OS so the best thing is just to remember to restore twice
I hadn't seen mention of this in the EVO LTE forum, but here's a way to backup everything before the HTCDev unlock that wipes your phone.
I was waiting for some way of doing this since you can't run Titanium Backup before getting root, and getting root (with current HBOOTs) wipes your phone. Found this in the generic Android hacking section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844032
I never knew there was an ADB Backup command. I've posted questions before and nobody mentioned it.
Since the phone prompts for an encryption password, it probably does do a deep copy of all the app settings.
I haven't actually done the restore from this yet - I'll be rooting this weekend then try the restore.
(Also backed up in MyBackup Pro just in case, for the little good that does.)
It's a huge Windows .BAT file that presents a menu of choices. It DOES take a while. Set a path, then choose a backup option.
I'm trying several different backup options under different backup names to see what restores the best.
If this works as advertised, it should save me days of re setting everything up and many rounds of annoyances about apps that no longer remember their settings.
OTOH, If this doesn't work, don't blame me
Dont you still need root to gain access to app data and the system files?
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
I would assume this uses fastboot root for anything that can't be accessed but fastboot has access to practically everything, there's even a fastboot command to flash splash screens lol
Again, I haven't tried the restore yet, but it looks to me like it requests the system to do it, which asks your permission first, so I'm assuming it gets everything.
I ran it with the phone booted up and it didn't complain. I guess I'll find out when I unlock and try to restore.
I may play with this later, seems like something handy for my guide
Sorry, I'm still too tired to understand what the hell is going on half the time, you're talking about adb and I'm taking about fastboot lol

Wouldn't think the restore would mess anything up, but I'm paranoid as $h1t with this phone.
Ask me about my ability to annoy complete strangers!
Nah its just a couple of image files, the worst thing that could happen is a bad flash that you can easily recover from in recovery
Hmm.
Well restoring a backup that didn't include system data *does* restore the app settings.
Now I'm trying restoring a backup that did include system data (the one marked as "unsafe" in the menu).
I'm hoping it'll restore my home screens, WiFi credentials, etc. The backup with system data took maybe 2 hours.
I'll check the restore in the morning...
(Oh well, either way, now that I'm rooted I can ditch all this and just go with Titanium from now on. Yay.)
Results:
Restoring a backup without system data did get all my app data/settings back.
Restoring a backup that included system data also had the side benefit of restoring the boot screen without the red tamper warning even though I'm S-ON. LOL.
I wonder if modifying a backup file then restoring it could be exploited...
This type of backup also includes all the SD contents. You might want to manage media files yourself instead.
Neither type restored home-screens. In fact, after restoring the one with system data, I had no icons or widgets whatsoever.
Even when I also told MyBackupPro to restore homescreens I got nothing. Oh well.

Very interesting...You could be on to something there with exploiting a backup. May want to drop the lazy panda devs a line and see if it could be used to downgrade the hboot in some way. When you restored the system partition did you lose root?
Sent from my EVO LTE
Nope - I was wondering if that would happen, but it's still rooted & su, busybox, etc are still there.
It restores the screen as a side effect of copying the entire system state. As a restore you get the system state in tact as it was before the phone gets tampered. An interesting exercise would be to see if you can use the back up function to flash a system state with superuser privledges
Gaining root with fastboot...I like it. Are the backups locked to the device or can they be shared and restored on others?
Sent from my EVO LTE
I would assume they aren't but they may have access to back up misc info related to only that phone. I haven't had a chance to poke around with this program yet

That's one of the many reasons why I use Apex. It allows you to back up and restore your home screens and settings. I also find that the multitasking is much improved if the sense launcher isn't running.

I can't get this working. I run UBT.bat and it just flashes on my screen and closes.
ok so basically i want to find a way to get to 4.3 either rooted or unrooted, my problem is that i have pretty bad ocd and one of my major major problems with that disorder is my tech devices, i will most likely have an anxsiety attack or 2 if i have to set up my phone from scratch and i will spend hours making it look exactly the same. anyway, i want to know:
1:how to update rooted gs3 Gt-i9305t 4g/lte model without loosing data (if possible )
2: update to 4.3 and un root without loosing data (im sure thats impossible )
i would really appreciate the help as i cannot find anyone looking for the same help as me (kinda strange how no one cares about there data at all, but meh)
also on a side note, i have the problem with my s3 where any sd card i put into the machine will eventually kill itself and never work again as far as i know, it has killed 3 32gb sd cards now and its starting to piss me off to the point where i am no longer using an sd card at all. why does the phone do this and is there any way to fix it? either software wise or hard wear wise? thanks !!! :fingers-crossed:
4.3 source code has only just been released. 4.3 roms are not fully functional and have bugs. There are no official releases so they are all "rooted".
You really do need to wipe when making version updates. Theres no way around this.
Stick with what you've got.
that just sucks.

hey another quick question, is there a way to so a full backup, like im talking FULL, like down to the point of where ur apps are placed and all there data, like apple devices have through itunes?? (restore from backup option) cus if so then i dont mind wiping at all, i just hate apple so i will never go back to one of there piece of **** devices again (i like features with my shiny brick) but yeah anything like that? or can kies do that?
i'm using temasek 4.3 preview 3 atm, you should check it out since developer is extremely helpful
and he updates regularly (which is important)
There are a number of ways to keep your data. Including ones that will let you change the ROM and still have your data. Titanium Backup - not sure if it is only Pro version but the one I have lets me create a backup on the extSDcard so I can flash it in a new ROM and restore all my apps and data straight off. SMS Backup and restore and Call Backup and restore both save out your data to the extSDcard so you can bring them back. I used to use My Backup Root as well but it ceased to work on the last update so I nuked it.
Add in a nandroid backup on something like Philz Recovery (where you can do an Advanced Restore from External SDCard and bring back just parts of your current ROM) and you can always get back to your look & feel in any new ROM.
The one thing I ahve NOT found a solution for is replacing my widgets back on the screens they are on - I run 7 screens and it pisses me off a full recovery in something like Titanium doesn't restore my widgets. The only way it happens is a full nandroid restore but that nukes the new ROM I have just installed so that's not an option.
I run Purelook HD as my 1st ROM, GoogyMax kernel and SlimBean as my 2nd ROM. I can nuke either or both and be back to my set up (including widgets) in about 45 minutes.

Lets dissect this a little.
A Nandroid backup will take a snapshot of your phone. If you flash something wrong, it can be used to restore your data / settings and rom exactly how it was. This will not help restore your data and settings on a new ROM where you had to perform a wipe. (You have to perform a wipe to prevent data and settings incompatibilities with the new ROM that will cause problems.)
Titanium backup is great. However, if you had to perform a wipe, you cannot simply restore everything using Titanium. This is because you will be restoring the incompatabilities (System data) and restoring the problems (negating the point of the wipe in the first place). You can restore user apps and data with titanium but there will be an element of manually setting all your rom settings.
OP - Please read the "Read before rooting" thread in my signature for more info.

The Advanced Restore in Philz lets you restore Data. The choices are, Restore Boot, System (+or- reload) Data, Cache and sd ext. The Data restored my latest personal stuff from the BU I tried just before a new ROM experiment. So not all Restores are the same. You don't have to bring it ALL back from a nandroid.

@Journyman16
You seem to be missing my point.
If you can restore just data via recovery (which you can) then you didn't need to wipe in the first place.
ROM goes in /system. We all know that. Our apps go in /data/app. We all know that. Our data for our apps goes in /data/data but what some may NOT know is that /data/data contains all your system data too. When you set a ring tone or wallpaper, its in /data/data.
If you go from 1 ROM to another, you may not have to wipe. Or you may HAVE to wipe. It depends if there is incompatible system data in /data/data or not.
When you do wipe, you wipe /data/* (includes /data/data). If you nandroid restore /data and your phone works perfectly, you didn't need to wipe. So my point remains.
If you HAD to wipe, you cannot simply restore data via recovery and have a fully working phone.

Thanks for the explanation - that helps me understand better what goes on. Would that explain perhaps why, after some Restores, I had to run Fix Permissions to stop the FC's?

I already told you who said there is an update for my phone. Unless my phone is disguised as some one of a kind phone, I'm supposed to be able to update to 4.3.
So yesterday I updated to 4.3 and now when using Titanium backup it restores the app but when launching the app It force closes and in the notification bar it says "Security Notice An attempt to access a secure area on your phone without autorization has been blocked. Make sure your phone is protected by updating the security policy to the latest version from samsung." Then has a button for Update policy or cancel and updating the policy doesnt fix it.
So now that you have the story let me tell you exactly what I did to update it.
I followed this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2504408
Then when I went to do the OTA it failed and I was thinking it was because of safestrap and that i still had a rom installed on rom slot 1. So I started over and once I installed VRUDMI1 I did a factory wipe of data just so its fresh(i think thats where i went wrong but i dont know). SO then i continued with the instructions in the link above and got 4.3 installed.
Any Idea why i cant restore? Im thinking it has to do with the app permissions because when I install from store and accept the permissions the app works but i cant restore my data.
Anyone?
Same Issue
Yes, anybody? I've had this same issue and worked around it, I just can't keep entering the data in all my apps.
It started when I went from stock on my S4 to Hyperdrive RLS12. The first time I witnessed this, it was annoying, but I figured it was simply because of differences in the stock vs custom (like deodexed vs odexed) making the backups in-compatible. BTW, I am using stock slot. Don't like the whole fake slot thing taking up space, especially when I'm no newbie with installing ROMs.
Well, I went from RLS12->13, same issue. Just did RLS13->14, same issue.
So here's what I just did (and always do). I've installed different ROMs on different phones countless times over the past few years, TB has never failed me in this process until now:
- Did nandroid backup of current ROM
- Took screenshots of important settings, etc.
- Did a TB of my USER apps I want to restore, sync'd to DropBox
- Recovery, full whipe (data/cache/dalvik/etc)
- Install new ROM version
- After first start, FIRST thing I do is re-install TB and license, so I can open it and let it detect my changed device id and restore it.
- After reboot, restore things, including app+data of certain apps from TB
But every time with my S4, I get the same things as ponzi314, if I install App only, it works. If I restore app+data or just data (after installing from market) the app will just go to a blank screen for a few seconds then crash. Even if I clear data at this point, the app won't work. I have to actually un-install/re-install the app.
What gives? It's frustrating given the number of times I've used this process with TB successfully. I'm going back to my nandroid backup for now until I can solve this. Thanks.

Hello.
Today I decided that I should upgrade my phone and move to Cyanogenmod 11.
So I downloaded everything, followed every step, made a backup with Titanium Backup, and upgraded.
With (almost) no problems, my phone booted with Cyanogenmod.
At first, everything went smooth, I put all my stuff back in the memory while I sit back and enjoy the speed.
But then everything went bad. I found out all my contacts are gone, all my photos are gone, all of my songs are gone, the home button doesn't work, I opened Nova Launcher and suddenly the lockscreen has been disabled.
I can't close apps because the home button doesn't work. The button on the upper left on the notification center doesn't work (although it worked at first), I don't even get notifications.
There is no physical problem with the home button. When the phone is locked, I press the home button and it wakes it up, but it does nothing besides that.
I also can't access my Contacts app, I need to open the Phone app and access them through there.
Also– I can't receive any calls. It seems the phone knows a call has been made, but it sends the caller straight to voice mail and I need to check the missing calls to see if anybody called.
If it helps, whenever I boot the phone there's a tiny exclamation mark on the top left.
Please help.
Well don't know what the problem is but seems like you are running out of RAM... I personally didn't had any problem with any aosp ROM be it cm11 or omni...
Try flashing it again and flash it clean that is do a factory reset then wipe system,preload, cache, dalvik cache..and then install it...
Also avoid using art as your runtime as it may be the culprit...

I doubt it's about the RAM, I never had any problems with it, and I clean it regularly.
I will try to flash it again, but I try to back my things up, and instead of backing up only the user apps (107) Titanium Backup backs up about 321 files, which I think means it backs up also the System stuff.
What do you mean by "avoid using art as your runtime"?
EDIT: I flashed the ROM again, and everything works fine. But before I bring all of my stuff back through Titanium Backup, I need to be sure: What does grey apps with cross line on them means? Because I don't want to screw up my phone again...

The apps which are crossed are not installed in your device...avoid the ones which are colored as these are the apps from your previous system which must have been backed up by titanium backup...dont restore them..just go in the tab which says restore missing apps with data..the first one in the restore section..it contains all your user apps with their data backed up..
although cm thread says that they dont support the use of titanium or restoring your data...
so i also restore those apps for which data is always necessary like games...it us a little cumbersome but ya thats the way to go for better experience...

Okay so I restored all of my apps, some info is missing but that's fine. Just a small problem– Slow charging. The battery take AGES to charge and the percents goes down if I use the phone while charging.
Suggestions?

Yes it was. The charging time changed only after flashing to CM.
The usb cable is not the problem, I tried 2 USB and one charger, the charging remains the same.
