[Q] transfer backup to another phone

How do I do this? I'm getting a new phone but I want to keep my saved games and other data from my current phone. I have titanium backup pro if that makes a difference.
Basically I want to backup my data on phone A and restore it on phone B.

Titanium backup pro.
I would recommend careful restore on same android versions, for user apps and data only. Don't restore system apps or data.
Some apps allow to export settings to be imported later. Make use of them.

Well if it were me I would simply do a Titanium backup to your removable SD card and use that on your new phone (assuming it's rooted).

How do I move backup location to external SD? I think it saves on internal.

External: Mount to computer and copy from internal sd to external sd.
OR
Internal: Use an app like say root explorer, and copy from internal sd to external sd on the phone.

Do you know what the file would be called or where it's located? I've got root explorer so I'll just make a copy to my external card.
(btw, 64gb cards do work in the infuse )

Can only access one SD card.

I am running cm7 and everything is running great. The only little hiccup I have is that I can only access one of my SD cards. With the stock File Explorer and Linda, only the internal SD is showing, and the External_SD folder empty.
Under cm7 settings>applications, there is an option to switch SD cards, but all that does is reverse what is show in the file explorer.
Both SD cards are available when I plug into the PC, but this is annoying having to manually change settings. It wasn't like this with stock 2.3.3.

External SD isn't used by cm7 you have emmc, which is your internal SD and SDcard which is your external sd

Wow, nvm. I got it figured out, had to do a little exploring.
My next task; browsing LAN network via wifi with Linda manager. Is this possible to access my home computer's hard drive from my phone? Looks like i need a host ip and password with Linda.

I want to know if i can change the internal sd card for a bigger one because i have a extra 16gb sd is it possible to change??

Do you mean use the 16gb instead of internal memory?
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda premium

The internal SD card is not removable

No i mean the internal sd the one inside the phone it only has 2gb.i once had a hd2 and changed the internal sd for a bigger one so i though i could do the same with this phone. Is it possible??
Or mount the 16gb as internal.

I really don't know about that but what I did was just change my download path to the external_sd within whatever app I was downloading from

Erm, the phone has built in memory, and then expandable memory from the microSD slot. Use a larger microSD and install your apps or transfer whatever media you have to that instead of the internal memory. You can also set your camera to save images to the microSD instead of the phone's internal memory.

The games install by default to internal sd and i don't have space for games only one fits and can't dl. Eny more that's my biggest problem and cant make the games install the data to external sd.

if you flash the cm7 port your external sd will be in your sdcard path like normal, and internal will be under an emmc folder instead. as far as i know thats your only option

We(tfq) are working on separating the sdcard and external sdcard like in cm7...it'll be emmc for internal ans sdcard for external SD
It does take time so waiting is crucial we are working on a lot of stuff for you guys

I cant find the nandroid backup

I made a nandroid backup,before install a liquid smooth rom,i have a esfile explorer and when i go to clockwork mode there are nothing in that folder,im not sure but i think there are suppose to have a folder named backup

Check data/media. You installed a 4.2.2 rpm which rearranges your internal sdcard.

I had similar issue when trying to figure out where it put it but when I used the search function in the explorer it was able to find it.

Move the entire CWM folder to your external sdcard and just continue making backups to your external sdcard going forward.
