MyBackup Root FREE (newest version attached)

Hi all,
I just came across this thread and thought I'd share. I have downloaded it from the Android Market and it seems to work fine. Everything is straight forward and easy to use. I have also attached the apk in case you can not get it through the market.
EDIT:
I have attached the newest version from the market (ver 3.2.1)
Please make sure you hit the THANKS button!

I have been using this very good app for a while now ... usually I get it from the market.
I wanted the apk file so that I could do restores without having to set up a market account first ...
and ended up here.
I like XDA, but am very surprised that you have not had one single reply since Jan,
even a simple thank you !

Tanke alot this is great!

great application
thanks

Thank you for this excellent app.

Been using this for quite a while (as Wolfbreak recommended this instead of xRecovery for data restore). Really a very simple and easy to use app.

Lol I missed this. Thanks for the op and thanks for bumping it.

It's cool! phanks!

I was looking for this app because my Magic is pretty unstable and a lot of things don't work: calendar won't show events, Maps crashes, Market crashes etc.
I donwloaded this file, but it says 'please update to the newest version', but since my market crashes I can't do anything.
Gonna wipe it out without a backup then.
Thanks for the effort of putting it online though!

Its the best backup utility I've come across.
Thanks man..

Have you rooted your phone? I can assume that's the case.
But if you have:
Backup all the apps you want with titanium backup (Just for ease)
Go into recovery and wipe all data and cahce.
Either keep the rom you have now or flash a new one.
Check to see if it's fixed.
Restore all of the apps you want to with Titanium backup.
Thank me if it works, or curse my name if it doesn't.

No this Nexus s hasnt been rooted thats why its such a problem!!!

[Q] App With Similar Function as Snap N' Go

Hello hope someone can help find an app which has similar functions of the Samsung's Snap N' Go.
Been using Snap N' Go and I love this app, the problem is I forgot to back up this app before I changed my ROM. I have already downloaded and installed the Snap N' Go found on one of the threads in this forum but it was not working anymore.. ( each time I'd started the app, just before I take the shot to copy files from my laptop it suddenly closes)
Hope anyone can give me an idea if there's an app existing.
thanks in advance.
God Bless Android!

I'm having the same problem as you, it closes after exactly one second.
We need an alternative.

Snap N Go Problem
Hi Friends,
I am facing an identical problem. If I remember correcectly the problem started after I upgraded to GINGERBREAD on my Galaxy S.
Would sincerely appreciate it, if details can be made known of any solution found.
Many thanks, in advance.

[Q] Crash Bandicoot doesn't download from server anymore?

Hello guys,
I don't have crash bandicoot pre-installed on my sd card no more. I'd like to try out using the Native psx emulator developed by yifanlu, but when i run my crash bandicoot, it seems to get stuck on "Updating" and never changes.
I've tried the US version as well, same result. Left it on for over 2 hours and still showing Updating page and nothing moves...
Anyone have any idea what i can do?
Thanks!

Maybe you will have more luck, if you push it back to /system/app where it came from rather than just installing

Thanks for the tip, but I didn't realize that within system/app I already have the same file that you uploaded. So I installed it from that location, but when I try to open it. All it keeps saying is updating... And I don't think it changes? Is it meant to change page to say maybe downloading or something? Is it meant to take ages to download?
This is getting quite annoying =.=
Anymore tips? Or should I just keep leaving it on the updating page?

To be honest for me, when i launch crash, that updating box stays on maybe 1 second then goes

Oh really? Then that means I seriously have something wrong with mine...that's alright thanks for your help! I will try and figure it out...hopefully.
Thanks again!

Any luck on the stuck at updating ? Im having same problem and it will never stop updating!!! Just sits at updating screen for hours

Problem Solved
I went back through and started replacing .apk's i had deleted. I even tried installing crash different ways, put it back into system an still no good, installed to sd card didnt work, installed to system normally didnt work. So when the Syphon Filter didnt work for me either, and I had all the sd files for syphon filter already, but even that said updating. It wasnt crash. There is an app called "preinstalledservice.apk" and idk why but none of the sony playstation game apps would work without it. Just put that .apk back into system apps and change permissions on it. Everything works great now, oddly enough the preinstalledservice.apk also has a weird looking icon... I attached it below, almost like its smiling with razor like teeth just because it knew I was gonna need it back in system lol....

Is your phone unlocked? I read somewhere that if your phone is unlocked then you lose drm support...since unlocking my phone I have not been able to download any new xperia games.....

Interesting...... On another forum someone mentioned how Sony said a long time ago the emulator will work on Tegra 2 (which it does, as in the Sony S1 tablet). However you would think ok then why wouldn't it work on any Tegra 2 phone, well the Playstation Certification of course. But what could that entail? Simply a build.prop modification? Based on this maybe not, maybe this .apk is specific to hardware to make sure that its running on PS Certified devices only.
Just my theory....

I would have to agree with you because without that apk I couldnt run anything. And when Syphon Filter 1 or 3 opened and froze at updating , I knew it had to be something missing on my phone because the Syphon Filters weren't released for xperia play on verizon, So they didnt need to update anything because I already had the files needed and they were modified to work on any xperia play model/carrier.

You guys are right
I have seen the file in titanium backup and when it's removed none of your xperia exclusive stuff will work anymore
the phone goes back to being regular android without it

[Q] An annoying problem with Shadowgun.

Hello people.
I have a friend's HTC Inspire 4G, he wanted me to install Shadowgun, which I did. I downloaded the 1.1.0 APK version. When I executed it, it began to download the required data and when it finish I began to play. Everything worked perfect, but when I reset the phone, the game ask me for download the data again... and when I check the
Code:
Android/data/
folder on SD-Card, I can see the Shadowgun data in a
Code:
com.madfinger.shadowgun
I can't remember the exact name. The thing is that folder have 1GB of data... meaning the Shadowgun data is really there. So I have no idea why the game ask me for download again.
Is this a common issue? How do I fix it?
Best regards.

maybe go to the market and redownload a fresh copy, possibly corrupted download?

Dude I said I play the game without problems, however when I reset the phone I ask me to download the data again. I guess if I play it, then it's not corrupted data.

it can still have a file corruption, wasnt trying to be mean to you. just saying its probably the easiest thing to try first before delving deeper into it. i did search around and went through market comments looking for a similar problem and couldnt find any. so that brought me to the conclusion that theres possibly something wrong with the apk. one flipped bit in a file can show at install or it could keep u from viewing the ending of a game.
at first i thought maybe you got the THD version of it but seeing as that one was 1.0.1 and you mentioned you had 1.1.0 that wasnt the case. Got to start somewhere with troubleshooting

Question...where did you download shadowgun from? If you did from the market then try emailing the devs. The contact info will be on the market page for shadowgun.
If you downloaded it from another place, and did it for free, please stop asking for help. That is a paid app. You should not be able to receive help here on xda for paid apps that were pirated.
I got your 10 char right here

I know you wasn't mean with be bro, in fact I thank you, certainly you're the only posting here besides me.
OK I know it's not a corrupted APK because in my Galaxy S II (i9100) I have the same APK with the same data, and it goes like heaven, so I don't know.
Thanks again.

I'll try askin the devs, I bought that app, ok?

<Mod Edit> Deleted contents. Condoning Warez, violation of XDA Rules.

If you are having the same issue then why do you need the files? Just download them and back them up yourself.

<Mod Edit. Deleted.>

Take Notice on Warez
I believe this same (edited) post asking for data files, was deleted from the General forum earlier.
And the same outcome. It is strictly against XDA rules, to ask for or condone the practice of sharing PAID Apps. Violations result in infraction points, and ultimately a ban from XDA.
Whether you paid for the app, is not a concern. In this case, your first avenue is the Dev of the program. NOT asking members to upload data files. You KNOW the rules, paid app or not.
I should hope I won't need to post again on this topic.

yeah .. i have same problem..

hi, its my first time here in the forum and i have read your problem with shadowgun.. i have also htc inspire phone installed with shadow gun.. i got this in android.mob.org at first, i downloaded this game in the torrent but i came up with the same problem with you. so here what you are going to do
1. download shadowgun to the mentioned site(put the cache file of the game into any folder of ur device but do not put it directly to sdcard/android/data/ bcoz at first launch it will be deleted)
2. then install apk
3. set your phone to airplane mode
4. then run the game
5. then press begin download (it will show some unknown javascript and let it
6. minimize the game.. do not close
7. copy the the files inside the com.madfingergames.shadowgun folder into the sdcard/android/data there is already a folder there with the same name with that folder.
8. open the minimized game shadowgun and it will now run smoothly
i hope it helped...
