[Q] backup and restore with data without root? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I changed phone from htc desire to galaxy s5 and i want to restore my apps and data... I don't have root on the s5 as i will lose warrany so I can't use titanium... I have tried helium backup but does not work... cannot do backups.. any other methods to backup and restore apps with data without root?

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

In theory it shouldn't be a problem although bear in mind that you will need to have root access and superuser before you can use Titanium on your SGS2
I have just backed up all my apps from my HTC Hero.
Currently downloading all my SMS with SMS Backup + but after that's done I'll be attempting to restore some apps. will let you know how it goes

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.

How do you guys back up your apps+data if you are not rooted?

Ive used helium before but a fair few apps backups were corrupted. I want to do a factory reset but cant since I'll lose all my apps and their data.
Try Helium! U need to install a pc software though. Go to Helium app in play store and read the instructions

Try "Mybackup" from the android play store, here is the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackup&hl=en
For most of it's features it does not require root.
And it does not require a computer.
Good luck!
Helium.

It says that to backup app data it needs root.
You can try Samsung Kies built-in backup feature. Though I had problems with restoring app data, maybe I did something wrong..

Backup apps and data

Hi,
I need to backup my apps and data,contacts and messages. I used to backup with GO Backup, and it worked flawlessly up to android 4.4, but now on LP and M I can not use it anymore. It was very simple and as soon as I restored my backups everything was back to normal (I didn't even need to login or register again in apps like instagram or whatsapp...). Now I use Titanium, but after restoring backups, I should login to every app, which is troublesome and it can not backup contacts and messages.
I was wondering what app you use with LP or M for backups, and if it is as simple and effective as GO Backup ?

I have the last version, I think it's 3.51. It can not backup apps and data, I've given go backup root permissions, but when it starts, an error is being shown, saying that go backup can not read or write sd card. do you know anyway around it ?

change the storage location to internal bcoz in miui lp sdcard can be write only with default explorer
Contacts & Messages backing up possible with Titanium backup .. For contact's backup go to Titanium backup > contact storage ... Do Same for messages..
Easiest way to Backup contacts is google

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.
