[Q] Important backups? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
i have now rooted my D802, easy as hell.
I wonder if theres some important backups i need to do. I have backed up me EFS with SAManager (3 modem files, modem, modemst1, modemst2, all img) and transfered them to a safe place.
Is there something else i need to take a backup off?

Weird, my EFS backup has only the last two files you mentioned, not the first one.

Yes of course but if something break like ui you may need to restored that even if you don't plan to system mod?

Help backing up to pc

I need some help backing up my apps and everything else that should be backed up on my PC.

Are you rooted? Because if not, I can only help by backing up apk's of your apps to your computer.

Try Carbon app. It allows you to back up apps and their settings without root.
Here's a link to the Play Store page: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=carbon+backup

I didn't like the fact that you have to pay for the premium version. Storage is through USB on the N4 otherwise.

Backup using Carbon, then transfer the backup files to your PC. Then when you're ready, copy them back and restore.
Besides, what's so bad about having to pay a few bucks for such a great app? All devs work hard to make the apps/mods/ROMs/kernels, etc that they do!

Extract save files from backup

So I was playing final fantasy dimensions and my phone froze. It would not boot up no matter what I did. Mind you I had 15 hours into the game. I made a backup of the ROM just incase I could get the save data. Can anyone direct me on doing that?

Hi,
It's an app: Titanium Backup.

Then you should have been more specific.
In the main menu, under "Special Backup/Restore" There is an option to extract from a nandroid.

Reminds me of the old days when you'd be way into your Nintendo game and the cartridge would take a crap. God that sucked.
I'm so glad I did a backup. I was thinking I would have to use my desktop to extract the save then manually place it in my android files.

Titanium backup is so worth buying the pro version of. I can't tell you how many times it has saved my life.
I got the same bug when I was playing, and did a backup, then I used nandroid manager to get back my data/sms/wifi setting

Some of us do have crappy connections with crappy upload speeds, you know?
Plus, your attitude won't help you in any way. Oh, and in the 6 days you could've gotten all those apps in other ways.
How could i get them?

by not being lazy and learning to look around no offense anyways, you can use this guide to get the system.img for whatever kdz firmware you want the apps from and then use ext2explore to save it as a folder and then just grab all the stuff you want from there
Doesnt work, the program say, that my system.img isnt an image

you are using the ext2explore part of the guide and not the ext4unpacker, the system.img is already in ext4 format all you need to do is open it with ext2explore and then save it as a folder so that you can grab the files you need
People in this forum that are in the know, and just know a thing or two about a thing or two! How did he get a reply lmao
