I was about to root my Desire when I realised it would be a full wipe. What is the best technique for backing up my settings, apps, call logs, sms etc and then restoring once I've rooted?
I'm on the Telstra (Australia) branded Desire A8183
MyBackup Pro.

Just checking to see if anyone is using Rom Toolbox pro and if they noticed any issues restoring data for applications.
Maybe this is an issue as I am trying to restore data from my HTC EVO 4g LTE to my new S4 but I would think that it would work on at least one or two applications. I'm running the updated MDL updates, rooted using CH and TWRP recovery. I installed Rom Toolbox PRO to restore all my backups from my EVO. The applications restore perfectly. However it gives an error trying to restore any data. Just says data restore failed.
Anyone been able to restore data from another phone using this method? I've never encountered this going across other platforms before.
I am having a similar problem
I am having similar issues too. But in my case, I am not able to restore on my own device. I have backed up my app+data on my Nexus 4 running 4.2.2 Paranoid Android ROM. But I am not able to restore it on the 4.3 PA ROM.
I have emailed Jared Rummler about this, and one of the staff member replied hinting that there may be a fix in the next version that might come sometime next week.
Did anyone else face the same problem?

I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that MDL does not have apps2sd functionality? Maybe it would work better with MF9. Probably not the issue but figured I would throw that out there.
I am on mdl and tried restoring when I went to blue kuban, no dice. Lame

Ever since I know of Helium backup, I found no need to root my phone anymore just for TB.

Is there a way to keep my texts on both Tom's during duel booting? Like having my texts on aosp brought over to a TW rom?

Use titanium backup. Backup before rebooting, restore upon booting into your other ROM. The SMS DB should be compatible, personally I didn't have any issues, but YMMV.
Edit: More specifically, backup the yellow element titled "Messages (SMS & MMS)"
I've tried but I get backup failed -.-

sms backup and restore its on google play for free
I was hoping for something more that wouldn't be me having to restore after each swap. lol
I have a bunch of app data backups (made on my Note 4 with Titanium) that I want to restore on the S7E. How can I restore those without having to root my new phone? Ive searched google and XDA and havent been able to find an answer.

Don't think you can. Do you still have the Note 4 in your possession? If so, you can make a backup using Helium and use Helium on the GS7 Edge to restore. I've been using Helium ever since I've stopped rooting my phones.

Hey guys,
for some reason I need to send my S10+ back to my carrier and will get a new one (different IMEI).
How can I make a full backup of all Android settings, apps and app settings, data, etc. and recover that on a different S10+ without root?
