I need to know how to backup my GS4, then factory reset it then load, all contatcs, text, emails and apps onto it. Right now the phone is rooted with safestrap on it and it wont update. I need to get it to facotry state and then load Text, contacts and emails onto it.
Thanks,

Backup up contacts & sms with cm backup from here
Use titanium backup to backup your apps then restore from the app itself & in regards to your emails they will be synced to your server-so as soon as you log in your mail will be there ?

When i first rooted my aria it was great, i could switch between liberated_aria, cm6, and intruder easily.
Now, whenever i flash a new rom I cannot get my google account to sync. My phone says "can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. Please contact your wireless network"
No matter what rom i try, it will not let me add a google account. I have tried all three roms and 2 different google accounts. I have to use wifi or nandroid restore to access my google accounts. I can use wifi on all roms but cm6 does not have wifi.
has anyone had this problem and no how to fix it? i want to use cm6 for a while but i have to have my google account for contact and all that.
thanks
Reboot into clockwork recovery and do a data wipe/factory restore before re-flashing the ROM of your choice.
You will lose all data though (contacts, SMS, apps, settings). Losing contacts and apps might not be too big of a deal though, since you can sync your contacts through google and backup your apps using Titanium Backup.
ive done tat, it still didnt work.
I use Tb. However, when I restore from a backup the only things that are missing are my email accounts. I have a lot of them so it sucks putting them back in each time I flash a new Rom. Any ideas?
Hi All. My N4 is all stock. To transfer my sms messages from my previous device, I used SMS Backup & Restore app from Playstore to create a backup file which I then transferred to the stock N4. I used the same app on the N4 to restore. Strangely, the restore process froze the N4, and worse, when I rebooted, the stock mms app was suddenly "not installed" (with just the green android robot in its place on the dock). I had to install Go SMS and did the restore all over again. Go SMS worked, fortunately. (I think it may have been the volume of sms restored that choked up the stock mms app, but i'm just speculating, and I still don't why the restore process should delete/uninstall the stock app itself.)
My question now is: is it possible re-install a stock MMS on an all-stock N4? if yes, how? I'm trying to avoid a factory reset if this can be avoided. Many thanks!
I attempted to upgrade to 64gb micro SD. I use link2sd to add additional internal storage for apps and games. Problem is that my twrp backup is over 8gb and I kept running into errors while trying to restore my twrp backup. So I came here and used someone's "stock" twrp backup. Everything looked fine,although the rom looked slightly different. The most pressing issue was that my Google account refused to sync. Also, there was no contacts app, so I was not able to restore my contacts or even add new contacts. Tried installing KitKat contacts,no bueno. I've decided to factory reset and start from scratch. Will one of you fine people send me the stock rom for the boost Aquos crystal? Unless you guys no of a way I can restore my contacts?
i have firmware for 306sh....

I wiped my phone and installed a new rom for a couple hours, received one text during that time. Then I wiped again, installed a fresh AICP rom, and let Google Setup restore my most recent backup from the cloud. It only restored the one message, and I lost a couple years worth of messages.
Is there a way to restore my messages from the cloud backup, to a certain point-in-time?
Thanks!
Mike

If you go back to stock and restore that backup you should get all your messages. I had the same issue on ROMs that sms was not restoring. Even though Google does a pretty descent job backing up I use sms backup and restore also. It's free and can backup anywhere (google drive,device,email etc.) That way you never have to worry again.
