I'm looking for a way to have my phone and tablet "be as one" where it has the same apps and information. This is not limited to the Note 2 and Note 10.1. I have a Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 as well. I use mostly the cloud heavy apps such as dropbox, and google drive to keep information in sync.
Will titanium backup be my best bet? Back up on one device and restore on another. Google play does a decent job restoring all apps at start but I download on one wont be downloaded another (with same google account?)
All and any input is appreciated. What are you guys doing with multiple devices? Thanks!

Hello,
I hope I am posting this is the right forum. When I got my nexus 7 I started buying lots of apps and games. It is now to the point where my play store purchases are almost worth as much as the nexus itself. I don't want to root but I already have many games deleted due to space. The main worry I have is if I don't root and backup and the app/game gets taken down I don't want to lose everything I have paid for. I have my backup pro however it never backed up even more then a fraction of what I own. I thought it would as it seemed to backup for non rooted devices too.
My other question is if a dev stops working on a app/game and it needs internet to verify purchase will I lose that program for good? I never have been into buying digital programs until this android device only physical copies. Thank you very much for and advice you can give me.

Tbh, i rooted my phone just to get rid all those ads. Yeah Titanium backup (the best yet) required root to backup and restore you apps.
Thanks I guess I may just do that then.

MyBackup
There is a version of MyBackup that doesn't require root. Though, it may not be able to backup all your apps due the lack of root access.
Use andro zip file manager to backup ur applications and it does not require root..

Definitely worth rooting to back up your apps/data. And sync to dropbox or something. You never know when you might need it :cyclops:
Go backup pro is a good one

Yeah I have my backup pro that I bought sadly it needed root for a lot of the data. Go backup pro seems to not work with my device. I will give andro zip a try. With all these amazing sales they are having for Christmas I will have to root if that program will not work with a dropbox. Its amazing how fairly most developers price there games on android vs psn,xbox live or the eshop. I really am loving android I have more games on this then every game system I own combined.

just like the title says is it possible to share notes between the 2 devices? How would I go about importing them to each other?

Are you signed into your Samsung account on both? My note 2 And note 10.1 sync s notes just fine.

l signed on my Samsung acct. On my N 7000 and N 8013 it all went fine until something happened when I upgraded the ROM on the 10.1 and sync has been screwed up. If I track the .snb files, l Can open them but cannot display them by the normal way of Using the S-Note app. It even destroyed a couple of notes on both devices...
This happened before debloating the RomS
Another way to do it is to share to online storage, dropbox etc then export it to the other device and open. A bit more convoluted to be honest, but it works.
Hello- I have an iPad as well as a Nexus 5 and this app called Planner Plus is truly fantastic: http://goo.gl/ve21a
Is anyone aware of an app that has similar functionality? I have scoured through the play store but have often found that it's the non-popular apps that work out the best (and sometimes become the next big app)
Thanks!
2do....

I linked up my Galaxy S5 to my Galaxy note pro 12.2 using SideSync 3.0 and it works great being able to use everything on my tablet from my phone. But I cant transfer pics or files using a drag and drop like the instructions explain. Any advice?
Use Dropbox or another cloud tool... Dropbox and Google+ canautomatically upload pictures, i.e. backup your stuff too... I hate tools that limit themselves to specific Samsung (or other) devices...
Just my opinion ?

Are the files going to&from a MicroSD?

Could you guys please post some tips when migrating from note 4 to note 5. I'm thinking of the best way to bring over my apps, documents and music. Contacts obviously carry over with google. No need for photo/video transfer.

Verizon cloud or Samsung smart switch. Btw, apps are also transferred via google. So you've just got docs and music. Buy yourself a $5 otg usb and transfer them manually.

I went from the DE Note 4 to the Note 5, and used Helium. Some apps aren't able to be backed up, but for the most part, Everything gets moved over.
Here's an XDA video link.
