[Q] Migrate s-health data

So I've rooted my S4 and I'm looking to start flashing custom ROMs but I want to migrate my months worth of pedometer data to the new ROM.
Does anyone know if this can be done? I remember seeing the apk's for all the samsung software somewhere. Assuming I can find that, where is the shealth data stored?

Encryption failed. Is there any way to save my data?

Hello everyone,
yesterday I wanted to try out encrypting my Note 4 (N910F). The process took over 10 hours without anything happening. I then decided the encryption failed and restartet the phone. It then asked my to reset it to factory settings, which I didn't do (yet). Unfortunatly I didn't make a backup before trying to encrypt it, and I would really like to keep the data, especially pictures, some messages, settings etc. Now is there any way I can still get the data? Or even the slightest possibility? The phone is running Android 5.0.1, is rooted and USB Debugging is enabled. Sadly, Samsung Kies, Samsung Smart Switch and Windows Explorer can't access the device (Windows Explorer doesn'T even recognize it). Now is there any way to still get atleast some data? Via ADB or so?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

There is no way, afaik. Sorry.
I reformatted and ran recovery utilities. I got a few hits, but I couldn't recover everything. I'm followed the tutorial found in the following link. I was able to extract the entire userdata image and am getting ready to perform file recovery on it. Good luck.

Issue with rooted Samsung S7 Edge

After a large headache (why doesn't anyone mention you gotta turn off secure startup in the tutorials for root to work?), I've finally gotten my S7 Edge (SM-G935P) rooted. I'm trying to start up FATE/Grand Order and FE: Heroes so I can link them to their accounts and save my data, but my root is being detected. I wanted to flash stock but if I do that, it'll erase my game data. What's the best way to "hide" root so that I can open these games and link them before flashing back to stock?
Alternatively, does flashing stock rom actually erase your apps/app data? Also, if I freeze an app (via that Titanium app), will it still be disabled after I flash stock? I've gotten mixed signals on both questions so I thought I'd ask the experts
Thanks for your help <3

Possible to root without wiping data now on Android 8.0?

Hello, I am trying to root my galaxy s7 edge to back up my kakaotalk chat logs using titanium backup.
The app disables adb backup, and cannot be backed up by non root ways (cloud backup solution they provide is very rudimentary and doesnt back up open chats)
However it appears most of the rooting solutions after Android 8.0 I searched ends up wiping device, which defeats the purpose of rooting the device in first place.
Is there any way to root s7 edge without wiping it?
