Whic back up for WM5, can make a backup in the pc? If I am not mistaken Sprite and Spb back up only on the SD card.
Thanks
Sprite can back up to the PC as well. And Spb may not directly back up to the PC (not sure), but there's nothing stopping you from copying the file afterwards?
ZeBoxx,
Have you become my personal tech support? heehee :roll:
In the end you will start asking for money
Thanks man
Yes I can copy, but I would prefer to avoid copying, since I am a backup freak, and I almost backup everyday. I did not see that option in Sprite, will look closer, thanks again

I use Sunnysoft Backup Manager which backs up to either main memory or SD card, and also includes a PC backup utility which if I'm right can restore a backup to your phone over Activsync.
You have to copy the backup on the phone to the PC first, though.

Hope this helps.

With Sprite, at least the beta I've got, you actually run an app on your desktop. It will remotely reset the PPC (the PPC will prompt you about it), perform the backup to the desktop, and I think resets again. Haven't run it in a while

Thanks a lot
Many users even I am having problems with titanium backup, simply the app was not backing up and restoring was not anything so I was trying to find a fix for this is is now working properly. :victory:
TUTORIAL FIX
1- Open the application SuperSU
2 - Drag side to the tab >>SETTINGS<<
3- Scroll to the option >>SECURITY<<
4- And uncheck >> SEPARATION SPACE OF NAMES FOR ASSEMBLY <<
5- Reboot
WOW now you can back up and restore your apps and data normally
Doesn't work in Ti 7.3.0 using Resurrection Remix M for Xperia ZR and SuperSu 2.65 but thanks for the effort...
For any having problems with titanium backup not able to access/write to ext SD card try this
As you have seen, Marshmallow has some new restrictions on how apps can use your external SD card. If you're like me, you use your external SD card for Titanium Backup, but as soon as you installed MM, Titanium Backup decided it wasn't working - specifically it can't access, or at least write to your Titanium Backup directory on your external SD card.
The only way is as follows IT WONT WORK THE NORMAL WAY OF SELECTING BACKUP LOCATION.
The solution is to configure Titanium Backup to access the external SD card slightly differently:
Go to Preferences -> Backup Folder Location.
Click on Storage provider at the top (it's not obvious that it's clickable).
Click on DocumentProvider storage. That will take you to a File Manager interface.
Then click the menu lines in the top-left and select your SD card, and click the "Select" at the bottom right. (You don't have to select your Titanium Backup folder here, you're just using this to get access to your SD Card.)
Now you should be back in Titanium Backup and you can browse like you used to to get to your preferred backup folder on your external SD Card
I warn you that using this Document Provider storage is much slower - at least it seems so for me. But, it seems that it's the only way to go for now.
If anyone has any better or alternate solutions, or better information, please let me know!

My work usually as I said above, but I had to download the updated application. I saw in the google that marmallow is giving sd error for lack of a few lines that do not contain the applications so is inaccessible. Thanks bro

Thanks worked for Samsung Galaxy S5 Xposed/TWRP/MM....this was the 'Only' method that worked for me after researching and trying everything. My headache is gone now thanks to you so much appreciated. It did not work if I selected the exact folder as well as selecting the ext Card so follow the steps to the Letter for those of you having issues. Why sh%t has to be this complicated for simple tasks is beyond my comprehension
Have similar problem, but on KK - ASUS tf300t, PAC-man KK.
Option was unchecked, so I'm trying with it checked, as on my other KK device (Xperia Z Ultra, AICP 7.0, there is no problem with it).
I'm trying to use SDcard as backups storage.
Thought it's problem with Ti, but the problem persist in File Managers, when trying to copy/move "broken" backups.
Best is that it's not one or few apps, but it "changes" once for a while and backup of app "broken" before is fine, but got the error on different one...
In File Manager the error looks like this: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError.
Right know I checked the option in SuperSU and did Wipe of Dlavik and Cache. Will see if it helps.
If not: Maybe anyone has similar adventures with Ti and can help with this?
It is called "Mount namespace separation"
It is the most annoying feature we have ever seen

This worked with Nougat 7.0 on my Samsung S7 edge, but the key as you mentioned just select the root folder of the SD card, then back in Titanium I selected the Titanium folder. If I selected the Titanium folder in the file manager interface it didn't work.
What to do for those root managers which are built internally like in RR Rom. We have no SU app. Then what?

This simple process fixed my backup error. I have been unable to set number of revisions higher than one due to the insufficient free space. Can't count number of factory resets, different versions of Android (5, 6 and 7), and the number of times I tried using the SD card in both modes. Even doing a completely clean install, with only being rooted and only titanium backup installed, it still refused to backup more than one revision.
Currently I have titanium set to keep 3 revisions, stored on SD card using the above procedure, and have had error free backups for 7 days now.
Backups are one operation that needs to be as simple as possible. Everyone should be able to perform a complete backup without needing to understand or learning convoluted processes.

I can confirm it worked for me, however I find the backups to do actually faster then before instead of slower Have no idea why. On the other hand no matter which way TB access SD card I see another strange issue. In case of some apps being backed up TB during backup says "Skipping..." (because no newer version from last backup and that's OK) which takes several minutes. Other apps are skipped in miliseconds.
I've been provided with a Moto G5+ to replace a Moto G4+ that was having too many ghost touch issues (when charging and also not when charging).
I'm just after a brief steer on the best way to migrate across.
I only have 1 SD card available which is currently in the G4.
Should I boot both devices without the SD card in either, then log in with google account etc and subsequently do the Moto Migrate app option? When that's complete, then put the SD card into the new phone (mainly images on the SD card, but not sure if there is any app data or not on there).
Or should I boot the G5 first with no SIM, no migration, connect to wifi and do a software update, then restart as first port of call?
Or should I do as the first option, but move the SD card straight into the new phone, boot it and follow the usual google account login, Moto Migrate options etc?
Any advice gratefully received - I only do this once so it would be good to do it properly!
To start off with this is the Moto G5 forum
The moto g5 plus forum is located
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus
Google backs up contacts calendar & other Google type services
By signing into google account on your g5+ you used to sync the g4+ with it will just restore everything
With regards to apps if it's a different android version it's best to re-download them from playstore as the app may be different depending on the Android sdk
However if you want to restore your app data & both phones are rooted you can use titanium backup to backup the apps & data to sd card & then restore them - do not backup or restore system apps
Google also saves your installed apps (not the data) so you can restore previous installed apps but if you want the data as well (eg app settings save game state that doesn't use Google play) Then you need to use above method
For things like text messages if you want to back them up there's apps on the playstore
For whatsapp it has its own backup via Google drive - check whatsapp settings
Anything else on the sd card just take it out old phone & put in new phone & set it to external mass storage to access
Note that if the sd card was set to be used as internal storage on the old phone the new phone won't be able to read it until you format it - in that case you will need to transfer the data to the old phones actual internal storage or a pc first - format the sd card & set to external mass storage then copy data back

Thanks. Realised my error with the G5+ forum after I'd posted, sorry about that. Thought the + models would be too niche to have their own sub-forums.
In the end booted the new phone with no SD card present, the google account brought nearly everything across and used the "set up new phone" facility that Google Settings / Admin prompted me for. Probably should have put the SD card in first of all as some apps that subsequently downloaded wanted to use the storage there, but other than that it was faultless and simple. Had a backup solution already for SMS etc, so that wasn't an issue, and everything else was cloud based.
Can an unrooted Moto G7 be fully backed up without syncing with Google?
For privacy reasons I use Netguard firewall and prefer to not sync with google. Is there a way to create a nandroid backup even though the phone is bootloader unlocked but not rooted?
I tried adb backup and it does not backup app data and settings. Will anything else do it without syncing with Google?
That's what I miss with an unrooted phone: full backups and Titanium Backup.
I know this is old, but I think this is a valid concern beyond just the G7.
The answer is a "JBOD configuration". The term JBOD means "just a bunch of drives" when they're set up on a raid controller without being set up in a dedicated striping or mirroring configuration. The idea is if the OS gets corrupted, you can wipe its drive and reinstall without losing data. You can also move the data to any device simply by transferring the physical drives to it if they fit. If not, you use the host system to mount the drive you're transferring to, hit copy and paste, and wait a while.
Anyway, the OS goes on the fastest drive by itself. The drive doesn't have to be very big. All of the data goes on a different drive or drives. In a PC, you could put the OS on a 64GB SSD and have the data on standard 2TB hard disks. Any of this can be striped to attempt to increase speed (not really necessary) or mirrored to preserve important files (saved my tail last month). Archives are as simple as swapping the data drives with fresh ones.
On a phone your OS goes on the internal storage and all data on an SD card. Archives are made with an external USB hard drive using USB OTG.
Again I realize this is old, but IMHO, JBOD is *the* way to go.
