Hey guys just isntalled the newest liberty ROM and lost backup assitant and some of my contacts are stored there so I definitely need it. I saw you can install it through his app that comes with the rom but when i try to it says failed. IS there a simple way to get it?
Thanks!
1. Log onto VZW.com go to the backup assistant tab and click export contacts.
2. Go to www.google.com/contacts and click on import.
That way you won't have to mess with backup assistant anymore...

backup it using backup and restore apps. also export your contacts to sdcard. in case backup and restore doesn't work.
about the apps, download it again.
For your Apps, you can use App Monster Pro.

That is a good question from paradise_human.
For the apps apk, I used adb with pull command.
But I still wonder how I can backup and retore my personnal parameters of apps and phone (brightness, wifi parameters, etc.).
So I'm interested in an answer too.

When you log into google it should automatically sync your apps and contacts.
Added Gmail still no luck

Did you sync all your apps and contacts before you installed Liberty?
No I did not have a gmail

They only other way would be going back via backup and syncing your stuff with google..you made a backup before installing Liberty right?

Yes I did will try that
I had the same problem when I flashed Liberty. The way I got around it was by flashing back to my previous ROM, backed up my apps and data with Titanium Backup, and performed and Export of my contacts (found in the menu options while in the Contacts app).
Flashed Liberty again, Imported my contacts (also found in the Contacts menu), and performed a Batch Restore with Titanium Backup.
I've been in love ever since.

At first glance of this I thought your SD card wasn't being recognized...
But that wouldn't make sense because of the fact that you were able to restore your apps from your SD card.
Check your SD card for a file named 00001.vcf in your SD's root. If you can't find it, then the Export wasn't successful.
Since you already have your APPs back, I would suggest you make a Backup of that in the case that you wanted to try it again. If you do try it again, then make sure that (after you export, but before restoring Liberty) you check your SD card for that file (00001.vcf). If it exported succesfully, then restore Liberty and Import.
Sorry I can't be of more help.
You could simply back up your contacts with mybackup pro and restore them after flashing the rom
is there any way to imports contacts and apps (mainly contacts) from my stock rom to custom rom? i am a noob so useful links would be helpful
Sync contacts with google or try pc companion.
Use titanium backup for apps.
you can backup you contacts on sd card with stock contacts app and then, after installing new rom, you can import it from sd card back

if you unroot your device you will lose many featuers and you cant use xrecovery so id say you dont unroot your device!
(sorry for bad english)
Use go contacts, with this app you can save your contacts to a vcf file.
what about the apps? do i need to download them again? is there any way to back up and restore apps in android?
Use Titanium Backup

just press the menu button in the contact,there is an import/export function.
u can use my backup pro..
that app u can backup ur sms and contact. but if u have rooted your phone u can backup ur app too .
Hey all,
OK, so as the title suggests.
I installed and did a backup of my contacts and apps using the MyBackup app and saved my contacts and apps to my SDCard, but they've gone walkabout! Don't ask, cos I don't know how or where they've now gone! Searched the SD card completely and there's nothing! I've since updated to 2.3.3 but MyBackup files have disappeared!
I've found I still have an old *.sbf file that was from my 1.6 to 2.1 update. Hopefully all is not lost and someone can point me in the direction of an app that can strip out the contact info/vCards from here?
Not too fussed by the apps... but a bit concerned I've lost all my contacts?
So... *.sbf app anyone??
Fingers crossed!

Check if the backups are in sdcard/rerware/

Thanks, but as I say, I searched the SDCard and the rerware folder doesn't exist!
The exact same thing happened to me. Luckily I sync all my contacts with google and was able to use back up and restore app to restore my messages and such from an older backup I made a while ago.

Thanks... that'll be my last ditched attempt. My GMail account it heaving with contacts so I don't really want to sync my phone unless necessary.
I'm still hopeful there's a legacy .sbf file convertor out there somewhere (?)
Hi everyone, before installing Paranoid. downloaded and had everything backup. Now, trying to get restore everything but my contacts are lost. I did recover everything except my contacts. Where do i find it?
Thanks.
Did you sync them to your Google account? You can re-sync them.
