Hey all,
Since the backup and restore apps from the market are horrifically slow, would manually backing up the SQLite database for Call logs, SMS, MMS and Contacts (the four categories I wish to backup and restore) be the way to go?
More specifically, do the Android 2.1 and Android 2.3 SQLite respective database's (for the categories above) parse the same?

Could someone please point me in the right direction for valid info regarding manually backing up SMS/MMS info. I am trying to determine if it is possible to manually back up my messages in effort to maintain them without extra system settings that may conflict with whatever ROM I happen to be running.
Look in the market for SMS Backup & Restore app
I use SMS Backup+ that available on Android market. This application backups to and restore from Google account. Very convenient way
Hey,
a friend has a Galaxy3 - the native Android client by default seems to be set up to delete messages when a certain limit is reached.
Is there some way to restore these messages? Maybe they just get moved off to a "temporary" folder for deleted items? Any help would be appreciated!
No you cant recover deleted sms. Download sms backup + from market and your current sms will be backed up in your gmail account, and you can restore them in case you delete them To prevent future sms loss, go in message settings and remove the sms limit...

Go to Sms app and press the menu button to open settings. First option is to enable/disable "Delete old sms".
If you backup up your files to Gmails, then you can easily restore them, but if you didn't , I think you need to try some professional Andriod data recovery tool, like Vibosoft, I used it, works, but if you create new files, it will cover your original data, in that case, it is impossible to recover.
It's awful to lose the photos of your precious memories from Android Phone due to accident deletion or other reasons. With Dr.Fone for Android, all the lost photos can be recovered at ease. Recover from SD card and phone storage; Retrieve JPEG, PSD, PNG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, etc.

Also it works on deleted contacts, text messages, video and more on your android phone.

You wouldn't Get it Anymore .....

hi guys,
These days I'm testing quite a few ROMs and as a consequence have my phone screwed up quite frequently.
Now I have a simple requirement - I want to backup all my current apps + app data as well as some specific system settings (like Bluetooth pairings, SMS messages, Gmail accounts, etc.). I dont want to backup all system settings because that is precisely what gets screwed up between ROMs.
Now, I'm not able to figure out how to achieve this. Now, I created a filter, but that pretty much asks me to choose specific apps - it does not let me do things like all user apps + specific system data.
Could someone help ?
Can you do all the backups, and then, filter when restoring? (I`m new to TB)
What app is the best or recommended before flashing a new rom?One that saves contacts sms apps etc.Thanks for any suggestion.
there are two possibilities:
1)titanium backup: for apps & system options (wifi network, BT device etc)
contacts: there is google sync, enable it; else in the contact app there is import/export menu (it save a .csv file in your sd)
i prefer for the sms: sms backup & restore link
2) if you want an all in one G Cloud Backup
Hello, I've had the oneplus 8T for 2.5 years now. For a week now I have rooted it again, after 2 years ago. So I did a backup until today with the oneplus app. And I manually uploaded it to the cloud.
So I'm looking for an app that can backup apps, data, SMS, call logs, contacts, settings and the layout of folders on the phone's desktop. And of course the application can upload the backup to the cloud. To be able to have the scheduling option.
I did some research on my own and discovered the Following, but I need your help.
Swift Backup:
Backup apps, data, call logs, contacts, sms.
Stores the backup in the storage and in the cloud.
I also discovered Neobackup, Titanium Backup and Backup rom. Can you write me what are the differences between them? Because I haven't understood...
I read somewhere that Neobackup is the best but it does not backup call logs, sms, contacts. And it doesn't upload to the cloud either.
Note, the comments I read about swift, it was 2022. So I want answers with the latest versions of these apps.
Swift Backup is the best overall
kaskander​TWRP/OrangeFox backups whole device partitions (like /system or /data) with everything inside them.
By restoring this backup you can revert your whole device (android version and your data) to the state on the time of backup.
Apps like swift, titanium, neo backup, backup your apps and their settings, also you can try to backup system apps settings to restore layout of folders (lancher app settings backup).
Titanium backup was once a gold standard of android backup apps, but as it is not being developed since 2019, it can't handle split apks and doesn't work very well with the latest android versions. So it can still be used, but not recommended.
Swift backup works well with the latest android versions, you can choose to backup your apps and data locally or on google drive or something similar. If you backup your apps in the cloud you can easily access those backups from another phone and restore them.
Backup files are encrypted too and app is proprietary one.
Neo-backup, as far as i understool does everything as Swift backup, and is open sourced.
Alternative to Titanium Backup?
Hey everyone, I've been using Titanium backup for a few weeks now but one thing irks me about it.. even though it successfully backs up my apps and I assume my data - when it comes to restoring the backup, it always re-installs the apps in a...
