With this tool, you can completely backup your device without root or unlocked bootloader.
I have tested it so far only with my Galaxy Nexus, but it should also work with other devices running Android 4.0+.
So you can unlock your bootloader without losing your data.
With version 1.1, not all parts of the program will be downloaded, only the necessary.
The most tools in the "Tools" section are for the Galaxy Nexus, but more devices will follow soon.
Now the final release of v2 is out!
The UI is complete, it's much easier to use.

Well...tried this on my GF's Droid Razr Maxx but all it did was display the adb.exe help text and then re-start. Does this util require an ADB connection? Or maybe anything else? I'm thinking some more info would be helpful...
Great idea, though -- I really hope it works.
Sent from my halfway-decent Acer A100 running WDS's JB with godmachine's kernel v1.3a cranked up to a sweet "battery life is for chumps" 1.5GHz using xda premium...like a boss!

I have fixed the problem.
The compiler has built crap.
And yes, it requires a ADB connection

I would like to see your source on this, is it possible to create a git?

It's just a .bat file.

Thank you
Maybe post it in the first post, as I am not the only one who will want to see the source on a developers forum

does NOT work on sprint's galaxy s III running CM10

A simple gift for this wonderful promising tool...

Since this uses ADB, if adb.exe is not found, it would not give any error/information to the user, of what is happening. It will just exit to the menu. Thus, I have added some ADB detection in the script here. http://pastebin.com/mFXJ3w36
PS: If @Gigadroid would put this up on github, more expansion and contribution is expected.

hai Gigadroid,
can u explain more about each option? coz i a little bit confuse about option 3,4 and 5.
if i need to backup game apps and data saved, which one should i choice ?
sorry for my English.
TQ

UI for your tool
Where can I contribute a simple Windows WinForms based UI for your tool? I am envisioning a save folder for backups, a file selection for restore. Backup name with date and time in file name if so desired, custom file name, ADB existense check, all garnished with explanative messages and an interminent progress bar so as to not block the UI while performing backup or restore.
BTW I just tried it on my SGS2 a day I after I rooted it for backups and it work fine
Now if I could only see how in ADB a package list can be retrieved with friendly names (Don't tell me... let me learn alone)

Does it work with<strikethrough> ICS 4.0.3(galaxy S2)</strikethrough> or even Gingerbread 2.3.6 (Galaxy Y) ?

I got this on galaxy S2

Option 3 is for backup device and app data.
That means when you restore you have only the system apps on your device.
The data of your apps is still present.
If you've done a mission in Dead trigger and install the app again, you're where you left off.
Option 4 is for backup your apps without data.
When you restore you aren't where you left off.
Option 5 is for backup music, pics, etc. hat are saved on your device
I would say you should choose 3 and 4, but with 1 you can do nothing wrong

Please read the first post. :/

Does not work on stock ROM in Sprint Epic 4G Touch (SPH-D710) "adb: unable to connect for backup" every other adb functions work.
Nice script nonetheless.

You can't compare this tool with a Nandroid backup.
Option 2 is the closest Option.

Is there a restore data ONLY button for a specific app?

No - you cant compare them.
Android commander is a kind of filemanager for your phone.
This Pc Suite is a kind of batch collection, including the (in my opinion) most common commands and actions, you need for your G1 - just type in your selection and the batch works automatic.

I get a launcher.apk corrupt.
! C:\pc_suite1.3(2).zip: CRC failed in data\launcher\Launcher.apk. The file is corrupt
I did backup the apps, and it's simple and effective. Not sure what I can do with launcher.apk, but I'll do a search and read.
Thanks!

There are several launcher.apk replacements which you can flash with this function. The one i placed in this suite is only for 2.1 builds afaik.
But if you get another launcher.apk (advanced launcher for example) which is compatible with your rom just place it in /data/launcher of the pc suite and use it again
Nice to see that the backup function is usefull - not only for me
apps back up/restore
how do i do a apps restore?
i have done the back up already and it does work like a charm.. but i dont know how to do do a restore.. and i am not good at all on ADB.. as i been reading and reading but i just cant get do doit.

unfortunally i don't yet have a restore option. Maybe it will come.
If you are not good at adb i would recommend you to backup the apps on your sd with this tool. To restore just use a filemanager on your phone and change to the folder /pc_suite/backup_apps/ on your sd and you can install the one you want...
update
1.4 out now
Great work!
I'm very new in the word of android, and this util helps me to use my phone much easier......
Thanks for your work!
New, and BIG update
Hey folk,
i hope is useful for some peoples!
you find Bug? report it!
have phun gn8 ...
it would be cool if you made two seperate folders: 1 for installed and 1 for system apps. Then you could restore them by using
Code:
adb push \data\installed_apps\*.apk /data/app
and
Code:
adb push \data\system-apps\*.apk /system/app
those should work right?
other than that...this is a pretty cool Batch Program man. great job
nvm i figured it out thanks

X10 Theme and System Utility v1.5 (adb fix posted)

I posted directions on how to fix adb on page 4 of this thread if you are getting
adb errors.
Release Notes: Xperia X10 Utility V 1.5
*Update Read Me*
1.5 Posted See Change Log two post down
*End of Update*
I noticed that a lot people are having a hard time flashing themes to their phones.
With that in mind I decided that we need a simpler way to get themes on to our phones and have backups of the original files in case we need to go back to stock for any reason.
Some of the options in this Utility do require that you have root!
While my plan was to make a theme flashing utility I decided to add in a few extra options, as of right now you can …
1. Backup your framework
2. Restore the original theme files (Pre-installed in a folder for this app)
3. Flash a new theme to your phone
4. Backup all your installed apps to your SD Card.
5. Restore your backed up apps from the SD Card to your phone.
6. Install Market Fix
7. Pre-Install Themes Quick Install
Right now this Utility Supports installing Theme files that have Framework-res.apk, Phone.apk, and Phonebook.apk
Next update will add support for themes that edit Time scape and Media scape.
Future Updates will add support to …
1. Backup Apps to PC
2. Restore Apps from PC
3. Root (X10 and X10 Mini / Mini Pro)
4. Backup & Restore SMS messages
5. Download Themes
6. Pre-Installed Themes Quick Install Avail in 1.5
7. Change Startup Animation
8. Uninstall Apps (System and normal)
9. Support for 2.xx
10. Much Much More ….
Directions –
1. Make sure USB Drivers are installed and device is connected
2. Unzip Files
3. Run x10.bat

Inside the unzipped folder you will find 4 folders that are called theme 1 - 4 they are empty right now.
Download the them you want to use and extract its files to the top level of any one of the 4 folders then select
Option 1 Flash Theme and then select Theme folder you want to flash and it will do it for you.
Credits and Thank You :
Thanks You Golfben / Che123 it was his G1 Utility that gave me the idea to make this for the X10 and he has allowed me to re-write his scripts and update them for the X10 so we can have a utility to make updating files easier.
Also Thank you to Bin4ry & Jerpelea who’s hard work on rooting and root method inspired me to create this app…
Thank you to all the Theme Makers who work so hard on the themes that we all want to download and use to change or improve the look of our x10.
I am looking to add in some quick install themes, so theme makers if you don't mind me making your theme a quick install theme just let me know and I will add it to next update.
Download Link : X10 Theme & System Utility
Original G1 PC Suite Che123, Thanks again for all the hard work and making it possible for me to make something just as nice for the X10.
Here is a quick guide on how to use the basic flash theme option in X10 Utility.
First Extract the downloaded file...
Then Extract your downloaded theme into 1 of the 4 theme folders
Inside your folder your theme files should be like this
Next Select X10.bat
It will open to Main Menu
Next Select Option 1
Next Select your theme folder
It will have you press any key to start
It will install the theme for you and reboot your phone (If framework was updated)
When it is done just hit any key and it will take you back to the Main Menu.
Now installing a theme is quick and easy.

Q: How is your folder structure when you unzipped did it put x10.bat and adb.exe in the same folder?
Ok I'm Checking into this now, if anyone else is having this problem please let me know.
EDIT: I wrote this before I saw your recent post, I have got both adb.exe and x10.bat in the same folder
ok i tried doing it manually and it still didnt work so i tried copying the adb.exe file to the theme one folder and i got this error 4 times http://grab.by/5H45
ok i tried it again with adbwinapi.dll copied to the theme 1 directory and it seemed to work apart from the first line which stated file path not specified however it seemed to copy all the files in the theme folder. I might just copy bother the adb and adbwinapi.dll files just incase. I found the adbwinapi.dll file in the /android-sdk-windows/tools folder.
*Edit* I just saw your post, that file should be auto detected in the tools folder, I will include it in next patch update.
Also can you tell me what error it gave you this time
That file it says is missing should be in your sdk/tools folder
What Sdk do you have installed
I have attached the adb files that go in sdk/tools
try unzipping the files into that folder then re-run the x10.bin and let me know what happens.
Did it install the theme for you.

yep it installed theme, it seems like everythings there except for the reskinned mediascape.apk and timescape.apk's but I think you omitted them from your original .bat file.
Yeah I'm working on V1.2 right now it will be posted in about an hour with support for time scape and media scape files.
ah ok, I'll download it in the morning, its about 2:30am over here! I tried adding
@adb push Timescape.apk /sdcard/Timescape.apk
and
@adb shell dd if=/sdcard/Timescape.apk of=/system/framework/Timescape.apk
to the .bat file but it doesnt seem to update Timescape or Mediascape
Yeah Please dont edit, script as it may cause errors, I will be posting an update soon,

an AROMA based Touch UI Recovery Installer
As seen on Valhalla Black Edition and Team Acid AOKP​
Please tell me if you're going to use this in your ROMs just so I know who is using it . Thank you.
This is for ROM chefs only, not for regular users. Regular users, you will see this in all your ROMs soon .
All the instructions below refer to the files in META-INF/com/google/android
You can change the splash image by replacing aroma/splash.png (make sure it's a PNG though)
As mentioned in the installation instructions, make sure your ROM's zip file matches that of Valhalla Black Final's for best results.
Full touch screen support
Allows for a typical install, using default settings
Allows the user to customize the ROM installation
Allows the chef to customize the user experience
Support for different themes/skins
Installs Busybox
Installs kernel if you desire
Installs modem if you desire
No need to check mounts, the installer properly mounts the partitions for you.
No need to format partitions, the installer can wipe them for you.
Download and extract the installer zip file
Edit aroma/installer.default.prop to set your ROM's information
Rename installer.default.prop to installer.prop
Edit aroma-config and updater-script to your liking
Extract your current ROM's zip
Delete your ROM's META-INF folder
Put the new SGS4G CWM Rom Installer's META-INF and tools folders in your ROM's root
Make sure your ROM's file structure matches that of AOKP Unofficial by TeamAcid, unless you know what you're doing
Create a new zip file
Flash away and test!
If you use this tool you have to link back to this thread and give me credit using the link. Example:

Remove touchscreen calibration fix /data extract bug
-- With aroma 2.55+ touchscreen calibration is no longer necessary
-- /data packages should get extracted properly after a /data restore
Updated to latest AROMA binary (2.56)
-- Much more stable binary in ICS recovery!
---- The newest binary hasn't crashed on me yet during testing unlike the older version (2.50) that was included in the last version of the SGS4G Installer.
Here is the AROMA changelog since the last version included in the SGS4G Installer
EDELWEIS - 2.56 - BUILD 121004-031

I was just gonna thank you for this over on Black thread. Glad you got this out for folks. Slick very slick. Who needs ROM manager(mangler) when you're around. So thanks to you and everyone else who worked on it.
I just used this a few hours ago I installed the black final rom with touch screen features is cool!

FB, I will be using it for the next edition of AOSP Style coming out soon. I have already built mos of the rom and its installer, but I needed verification.

Sounds good. Just follow the OP if you'd like. I'm sure you already looked through the scripts. You should theme the installer to make it look like your ROM .
airflip if u are using my rom as a base its already in there .... which u asked me to use so.....
FB, I just flashed Raver's final and everything flashed fine then when the installer was done it showed an error having to do with not finding a path for something. I was going to re do it and copy the error down but now the phone is stuck at the T-Mo screen and it won't go into recovery with the button combo. I'm going to Odin it in the morning and re-flash and see if it throws the error again and I'll let you know.

I'm gonna release an update soon. You should look into it once I'm done since I simplified the updater-script portion of it.
What do you mean by "soon" because i may release 4.0 tomorrow. I just need to test my new features.
I'm doing final testing of the installer so in about an hour.

Panicking right now because I can't seem to PM you FB.
I hope I don't come off as a stickler for details, but there's just a single typo in what is the 6th screenshot posted in the OP. It's for the option where you can choose to Wipe Data.
"...another ROM. Don't select if you want to keep your ap"
I'm assuming it was supposed to say "apps."
Just wanted to make note of it as I saw that Raver updated the contents in the aroma folder within the META-INF directory for his Valhalla Black rom. I was just thinking the typo might've been updated or something somehow.

Just a suggestion..... The flashtool for sony ericsson phones is really handy because it lets you put your kernels and recoveries and things in a folder, then when you select flash kernel/recovery in the programme it gives a list of all the files in the folder so you can choose which one to flash check it out and see what you think http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/ Maybe you can get some other ideas Thanks for this though it works awaesome

I didn't mean any particular boot animations or sounds, but an option so people can browse through their libraries and select it. Then it will flash it or put it in the correct folder. It seems to wary a little depending on which ROM you are on. If it's not to much hassle tho.

If you are able to find animations/sounds, pass it over my way and I will try to see how I can incorporate it. I am trying to expand my toolkit to other devices so I want the Toolkit to be device-specific rather than universal.

Thats a really good idea m8 well done . Wish I had thought of that. But to be honest I dont thik its as easy asa that to do as you would need all the RRU files ?.

What is needed to bring it to stock? Just run an RUU and it will flash it back to stock? I can probably do that BUT RUU files are usually 300+ MB. So it will be a huge file.
If you just want to flash ROMs / Recoveries and not Radios, I would recommend using the HTC Dev method rather than S-Off. I warrantied my phone in to T-Mobile over 6 times using the HTC Dev method since we (HTC Amaze owners) do not have S-Off.

[MOD] UnBloatMi - Xiaomi MIUI Bloatware Remover

UnBloatMi - Xiaomi MIUI Bloatware Remover
I have been searching for a script to remove Bloatware from my Xiaomi Mi5s, and found a couple of different ones that do part of the job.
None were exactly what I was looking for, so I wrote a script of my own.
Although I tested the script on my MI5s only, it should be very usable for any Xiaomi device running MIUI 7 or 8.
In UnBloatMi I have combined multiple lists of MIUI 7 and 8 apps that should be safe to remove.
It also contains a couple that are less safe to remove, but the script will ask for confirmation before removing those.
Which is a big difference from other scripts; you get to choose what to remove and what to restore!
Backup location:
If you edit the script, you can change the backup location to use (by default "/sdcard/UnBloatMi")
You can of course also add more apps to remove to the list in the script. (instructions are in the comments)
It's not needed to remove files from the list, as it will not process files that are not on your device, and you can choose not to remove any app.
To Customize the Script:
Unzip the zip and edit the file under: META-INF\com\google\android\update-binary
This script is written in shell language (sh), so editing is somewhat different from "normal" EDIFY scripts that use the "updater-script" file.
I used part of the excellent template by osm0sis to create UnBloatMi
Install Custom Apps/Files:
You can also have the script install Custom files to /system folder. (So you can add another HomeLauncher, for example)
To have the script install Custom files, just add them to the Zip in "/system/app/" folder:
/system/app/YourCustomApp1/YourCustomApp1.apk
/system/app/YourCustomApp2/YourCustomApp2.apk
The script will automatically install them for you.
To use the Script:
You need to have TWRP Recovery installed.
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE BEFORE RUNNING THIS SCRIPT!!! (I recommend using TWRP Backup)
(even though the script allows you to restore your changes, something can always go wrong - press wrong button for example)
- Move the ZIP file to your SDCard, and install using TWRP Recovery
Basically, you can just follow the instructions on the screen, by pressing Volume buttons.
- The first run, you'll be asked what apps to remove. Backups are automatically made.
You can confirm each app, or choose to only confirm the more risky apps.
- If you run the script again (after testing your installation), it will detect the backups from the previous run.
You can then choose to restore the backup files, or delete them from your device.
- You can now also create a default UnBloat list, that can be used to UnBloat after flashing a (new) ROM.
It is created by checking for installed apps. If an app is not found on the device, it's added to the list.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Feel free to edit and change the script.
If you make any improvements, please let me know so I can add them to the script.
This includes reporting what apps caused problems when removed, or comments about apps.
You can find the script in: /META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary (or on GitHub by clicking the "Source Code" link below)
Instructions can be found in the comments of that file.
--UPDATE--
Added Step by Step Restore: You can now choose which apps to restore, so it is easier to troubleshoot your installation.
--UPDATE v0.2--
Added warning to SecurityCenter App (so it has to be confirmed). It caused bootloop on my device when removed.
--UPDATE v0.3--
Bugfixes, Added Apps, changed and added some app comments. Changed download link (GitHub download creates a folder too many)
--UPDATE v0.4--
Changed/Added menu's - Allows you to do more actions at once
Added apps and comments.
Added ability to save a default UnBloat list. This can be used to UnBloat after flashing a ROM.

Thanks for your bug-report and logfile!
It says it couldn't find the script, and after investigating I found the download link to GitHub creates a folder too many inside the zip.
I was hoping to have the available download automatically give the latest version...
I guess I'll have to create a release after every update, and update the link accordingly...
I adjusted the download link in the original post.
this is great! i made my own debloater script, but your is so much more elegant! i hope things dont change much when we update to 8.2....

I have just released version 0.4, which allows us to create a default UnBloat list.
This can be used to UnBloat again after flashing a new ROM.
(I'm hoping to use this in combination with OTA updates. I'll write a howto if I manage to get this all to work)
Thanks, i try it...
EDIT: i have removed many apps on my rn3se (kate), wipe davilcache but i've a bootloop :?
Good restore option
Hey @Zappo, did you already get the update to 8.2? Will you be updating the script for the new miui?

I'm running the MIUI Global ROM 8.0.3.0....
As far as I know, no updates yet...
If anyone knows of new or other Bloatware, I'll update the script accordingly.

If you have found the app causing your bootloop, please let me know. I'll add it to the risky apps list.
I use the "restore one by one" option, and try to find the problem-app that way...

Hi.
Big thanks for your hard work. At this moment i have personalized your list but i think that velvet.apk is a possible problem
This "# The file number doesn't have to be in order, but should be unique." is no true otherwise the script does not work well (es.: items 0-1-3-4)

You are both correct and wrong; they don't have to be in order, but do have to be ascending without interruptions (can't have missing numbers)
Ex: items 0-1-3-5-4-2 is OK.
I didn't think it would be a problem, as items don't have to be removed...
I will review your list, and add a comment to velvet.apk when I have the time. (however it didn't cause any problem on my Mi5s)
Ok, thanks.
Do you know where can i find mi apps description?

I've been Googling for those quite a bit...
It's hard to find good descriptions for those.

No sorry, velvet is ok but it's need a litlle of attention.
EDIT: install /system/custom1/custom1.apk is impossible

Yes, it should work for all MIUI 7&8 devices.
If software in the script is not found on your device, it will be automatically skipped.

I agree this kind of got lost in the code...
New software is only installed when removing bloatware the first time (or when no backups are found).
It should be automatically installed when choosing "Remove/Restore bloatware" from the first menu.
However when a backup is present on the device (folder "UnBloatMi" by default), this is skipped...
I did this, presuming new software is installed after the first run, and if a backup is already created it doesn't have to be installed again.
Hey @Zappo , found this project for redmi note 2, and it's so heavily debloated, i haven't seen anything like it. Maybe you can look over it and add a few more things to debloat? I tried to recreate it but I don't know which qualcomm apps are essential to our phone, i had only bootloops... Anyway here's the link https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/development/best-sot-t3434915
Edit: i can provide you with a list of all the contents of the rom, i extracted the system partition.
