Contacts should be stored on the gmail account. If not then do that first.
To backup apps use a program called backup program and restore. Does not require root.
Also apps do backup on the Google account as well.

Backup app

Best app for backing up apps+data used when flashing new roms. Been using TiBu but its such a pain to press install and ok 100 times when restoring.

Nandroid restore breaks gmail sync?

Has anyone done a nandroid restore on their ns4g? I did it yesterday and a known functional backup had all kinds of problems with gmail sync -- couldn't send gmail from phone, messages deleted on phone weren't being deleted on server, unread count was off. Had to wipe user data and use titanium to restore apps and data.
Anyway wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if its an issue with cwm on our devices.
Btw was using the stock rooted rom and stock kernel.

Usually for that you just have to go to Menu >Manage apps > Gmail > Clear data. For next time.

back up game data?

i might be exchanging my nexus s soon (back button occasionally gets stuck), and im wondering how i'd back up paradise island so i wouldn't have to start all over on the new phone?

thanks!
Titanium Backup will do that for you. Backup app+data. All the files are stored on the sdcard.

Titanium Backup will do it, but you have to be rooted.
If you're not rooted, don't think there is a way.

Backup protected app to apk

I have tried tirelessly to backup an app to apk. I am rooted but the apk file is not under the data/app which programs use to back it up. I can use titanium backup but I need to eventually be able to install the app without being rooted as the app refuses to run on rooted devices.
Can you backup apps installed to an apk when they are blocked?
How?
I will gladly donate to whoever helps leading to success.

In case anyone wants to do such in the future, I was able to get the apk by using an application called root uninstaller to get the protected app into an apk file that I could use to install on bother devices.

i agree with mistarose about using root uninstaller. it comes in handy also, after you install you can search for it:
# busybox find / -name *jeppesen*.apk
Don't know if it helps but i use ave anti iris to back up apps to apk
Will say not all apps but most

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ok
Actually app backup and restore app on play store is quite good!
No compulsion for root!
