You can use SwiftBackup to backup all i think.
I never backup sms etc i only backup app and data and i use NeoBackup for it and it never failed me.
Anyway AlphaBackup is a great app too. I tend to use OpenSource Apps thats why i use NeoBackup.

[Q] App Backup- Not a stupid question

I was wondering how to backup an app WITHOUT backing up the data along with it. I have been having permission problems with my restores after flashing new roms. I believe it has something to do with the user data that comes with the apps.
Basically, how do I backup apps alone, without any of my personal data coming along with it?
Is there such a function on Titanium Backup? I have been using this.

With Titanium Backup you can restore Apps one by one. or as a batch option. You do not have to back up personal data with the app data.
This is what i do when i switch ROMs. I just skip the sign in, then log in via the accounts and sync option, then use the market to download T/Backup and batch restore and allow Google to re-sync my phone and use tit/bac for my apps.

Right, that is what I meant. When you just backup apps alone, the app data comes along with it. For example, when I restore angry birds alone, I still have all of my accolades. I was wondering how I could restore apps similar to freshly installing it onto my phone.

Yes. If you do a batch restore you can have it do "restore apps with data" and it will act like you never left the game.
I forgot to mention a part, please look at my above post again. Thanks

Yes you can also restore apps w/o user data.
you can also unlink apps from the market. So like with the recent flash update you can unlink the app from the market so you do not get market updates. so i can keep 10.1 and not worry about 10.2.
So how would I do that?

Backup an app, then restore it as a fresh app without any data from before.

after you've rooted
after you've made sure s=off
you need to install the TB from the market and the Pro Key
once you you do that open the app up, download BusyBox via the "problems" button.
Then go to the "backup/restore" button and pick what you want to freeze/backup/restore
if you want to do a batch option from the main screen press the menu > BATCH > then select what you want to .

You can also try MyBackup Root. Its free and a little easier to use than Titanium. Seems to work great for me.
As well as ES file explorer or AntTek app manager.

Titanium Backup did not restore my call log either

Am I doing something wrong? I've restored the calls using a special program that makes its own backup, but I'd rather do it all from within TB if that was possible.
I've restored all of the green items and rebooted, but the logs did not come back.
I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that TB backs up call logs. As much as the developer maintains it you'd think he would build that in, but I'm not aware of such a feature.
Called logs are part of 'system data', which I don't think is a 'green item' in TB. Try restoring all system data. Also, if you are going from one version of Android to another, you may have to enable "migrate system data" option in TB's preferences.
"Dialer Storage" is the item that holds your call logs and sms/mms messages
It backs up my call logs...
Also, this would be better in q & a

Did u happen to switch between 2 different roms?
My logs are restored when I use restore all apps and system data. You have to be careful about doing that between firmware versions.

Totally agree with this^^^^. More times than not it causes problems.
The "red stuff" its ok to restore data for. At least for me. But things like settings I usually do manually

I use both this and TB. Personally I like MyBackup for backup and restore of SMS, MMS, and call logs. TB I use for restoring individual applications and their data. But I used both to backup everything just in case one of them fails to backup and/or restore something.

Backing up and restoring the stock e-mail app

Hi all. I was wondering if there is a way to backup the STOCK e-mail app (emails, accounts, settings) and WITHOUT ROOT. I have done many searches on Google, but most of the threads are quite old.
Pardon my newbness pls but wont titanium backup work? I mean I think it only needs root when you need to uninstall system apps?

Helium, or just use Google's in built backup - when you reset or anything you log back in to your g account and it auto restores everything for you -- and gives you an option to restore old apps also.

From everything I read Titanium doesn't do a good job with backing up the stock email app.

Are you sure that the google built in backup actually backs up the email accounts and settings??? Even though I have google backup enabled (I think), it has never really restored anything important.

When you re-log back into Google it gives you the option to restore backed up data.

Could always try the grabbing the data folders from the system and put them on your PC, then just swap them after a reset etc. Other than that, there's Google's cloud back up which is built in, or see what else is available (not sure what else there is tbh)
try MyBackup Pro

Transfer messages from Jellybean to Kitkat

I'm currently running CM10.1.3 (Android 4.2.2) and I'm having problems transferring messages when flashing any 4.4 ROMs. I tried numerous apps like SMS Backup, Titanium, My Backup Pro but none are restoring my SMS messages (not too bothered about MMS). I've tried ROMs with both Hangouts and other message apps and clearing said caches after restoring but still nothing.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm lead to believe that Titanium Backup would backup and restore sms messages. I've never tried tho.

Have always been using Super Backup from store to backup and restore sms, contacts and call logs among different android devices and never let me down.

Are you sure about Titanium Backup? I always use it to restore message!
Try XML backup with it.
Open Titanium Backup, go to MENU on the top right corner, then scroll down to Backup data to XML, then choose Message (SMS & MMS).
Then when you want to restore them use the Restore data from XML.
It works flawlessly countless time, at least for me.

Titanium Backup is one of the most useful apps in the play store, my first paid app I actually bought, after using the cracked version for a while. And as a flashaholic, you'd imagine how much I need to use it
So yeah, it's your ultimate backup tool.

One question, since you used it to restore sms's in kitkat. Did you need to set titanium backup as default SMS app?
App which I used "SMS Backup&Restore" needed to be set as default SMS app before restoring.

Nope. Titanium handled the restoring process independently.

[Q] Data restoring through Titanium Backup

Hello,
i want to change my ROM (i'm using Evo-x4 right now) and i need to restore my apps with data.
The problem is, that one app after restoring app+data is acting like it's normal installed app without my data.
I can make those data work only through dirty flash without wiping data, but then i'm not seeing QuickToggles and i'm experiencing much problems with connections.
Any other way i can restore the app without problems?
