Try "Go Backup & Restore" it does not require root. Here is the link:

Good luck!

Sorry my friend but this backup app is as all the backup app's except helium.
NEED ROOT TO BACKUP SETTINGS/DATA OF EACH APP so it's completely USELESS for me.
It is good to know what app you suggest to anyone based on what it asked.

[Q] Backing up apps + data.

Hi everyone,
I know there is a lot of backup apps but I've not found one that physically backs up the app and then restores it (re-installs) after installing a new rom.
Can anyone suggest an app that will do this?

You can use Titanium Backup for when you are rooted and Carbon for when you are not rooted or you do have root. Both are good but Carbon doesn`t require root.
Btw i would only backup user apps and data and no system apps.
I have titanium backup, but last time it didn't actually backup the installed apps only the data. Is that the case still? Or will I have to go ahead and re-download all the apps?

Usualy it also backs up user data as well as the apps. Maybe you chose the wrong backup option?
adb backup is always there, thats google own integrated backup agent inside your nexus. trigger it via shell or nexus toolkit.
i've tried carbon though and im blown away.

why wouldn't you back up system apps?
Because they cause problems most of the time if you restore them on another rom or after upgrading a rom.

[Q] Best way to backup everything before flashing?

Hi, What apps do you guys use to backup up your SMS, Contacts, Apps etc before you wipe everything and install a new rom.
Im looking for one that has a restore feature that can easily be used without there being any problems where I'm left with all my data lost
Cheers!

Nandroid backup via CWM or Titanium Backup with rooted device.
Export to xml in titanium backup for sms
Google looks after contracts
Titanium backup for apps
Make a nandroid before you try a new Rom incase you want to go back or forget to backup something

There is also Helium which doesn't require root if you run it plugged into USB on your computer.
Hi guys!
Sorry for the late reply, but thank you for the suggestions!
Titanium backup looks too complicated :L I'm using TWRP atm so a Nandroid backup isn't an option for me I don't think..?
Helium seems to appeal for me, so I will try it out

I would advise you to make at least an EFS backup. You can use the backup function in TWRP for that.
Otherwise, Titanium backup has no real competitor, and is not complicated at all. Try it. You'll thank me later.

There are two kinds of backup/restore...
One backs up the actual firmware/rom the other kind of backup backs up applications
which are installed in your phone.
The best for application backup/restore "Titanium Backup" (it does backup game and application data)
The best way to backup your entire firmware/rom is by using TWRP recovery.
Twrp can be installed using "goomanager" a app which you can download from playstore,
Titanium backup is also an app you can download from the playstore.
Good luck!

Try Helium app from goggle --> „Helium - App Sync and Backup”

Helium works well but some apps can't be restore via helium because of devs restrictions.
You need to install helium on your pc as well to get it working.
Helium is very long.
Best way is root and Titanium or nandroid manager, sorry for that.
Best regards

Which Application For Backup?

Hi,
For a non-rooted device, which backup application should I use? I would like to have a backup of my applications and its their data.
I couldn't get Helium to work because of the desktop password error.
Anymore suggestions?

If you decide to root your phone use Titanium Backup which is at the playstore..
If you don't want to root than use "My Backup" (free playstore app)
After using My Backup if you want the paid version you can get that at
the playstore too. Here is the link for the free version of My Backup:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackup
Good luck,
Have a great day!

Hi, My Backup needs root to backup data. I don't want to root my SGS7E just yet.

The only app that can backup data from a non-rooted phone is Helium backup, IF you can get it to work. I haven't been able to get it to work reliably on the GS7 Edge. In fact, I only got it to work once, and have had no success at all, since.

Sorry, I thought you simply wanted to backup all your apps.
I really doubt there are any backup apps which backup data without root,
although I have been known to be wrong a couple times in the past. lol
Good luck,
Have a great day!

There is one which is called Helium in Google Play Store but unfortunately, couldn't get it to work with my SGS7E.
