With a Goolge account if you need your data you can use web access :
with www_google_com/calendar
with www_google_com/contacts

is Titanium backup still the best?

is Titanium backup still the best?
i uninstalled a stock app and it wont reinstall
also drop box always fails 50 times
And the Dev never writes back on the PRo version
Is there a better alternative to back up a phone and then remotely save the information via WIFI to a PC or something
Cheers
I personally think it is the best backup app, and now you can also extract apps (and data) from clockwork mod backups. It is also free

You should just freeze the stock apps instead of uninstalling

[Q] Restoring HTC Sync backup from Sense 4 to 5?

Good evening.
Yesterday I installed the MaximusHD rom (previously the phone was stock).
I did a backup with HTC before flashing the rom, but when I tried to restore the backup, HTC Sync didn't work.
Now I have my videos, photos and music crypted in .xml files in C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\HTC MediaHub\Backup\BR_HT23RW405191 and I can't recover them!
Does somebody have any suggestion please? :crying:

HTC Backup does not support photos, videos, music or documents. It backs up settings and apps.

If you used HTC Sync Manager, which is supposed to backup the files you mentioned, you could return to stock. Restore and then move the files to your PC. Then when you reinstall maximus you could move them that way.

Just thought of something, is USB Debugging enabled on your phone now? That could be the problem.
So in settings>About>Software information>More: keep tapping the build number will activate the dev options

[Q] Is it possible to add apps to GApps?

I've been changing ROMs a lot lately to just try them out and everything and it's been a pain having to install Titanium Backup everytime then install all the other apps manually. Is it possible to add them to Titanium Backup so that I can just install them when flashing then get right to work restoring backups when the phone boots and I'm done with first time setup?

Its easy:
Make a nandroid backup via CWM or TWRP. When you have installed the new rom just install Titanium Backup und select "Extract from nandroid backup". All apps included in the backup will be shown up and you can select all apps you need and install them with one click.

Does this require the paid version of Titanium Backup?
I have the paid version. It's really worth the 5 bucks. I'll check out a free solution

I guess I'll just break down and buy the paid version. Syncing to the cloud would be helpful too.

According to WhatsApp FAQ - How do I save my chat history?
Here is some technical information about your backup
1. Backup files are saved in the ‘ wa’ folder and are called MsgStore.bak .
2. Backup files are saved to both your phone’s internal memory and SD card, but only given that there’s
enough space .
Since you referred to Google Drive, I assume you have an Android phone. The FAQ for Android is at
WhatsApp FAQ - How do I save my chat history? and it states:
Your WhatsApp chats are automatically backed up and saved daily on your phone's memory. Depending on your settings, you can also periodically backup your WhatsApp chats to your Google Drive .
The iPhone app saves the backups to iCloud, of course, but I could not find the file for my backup. Perhaps it is a hidden file. The file is only readable by WhatsApp. If you want to export your chats to a text file, you can email them to yourself. In that case, use the Email chat feature
Sent from my SM-G7102 using Tapatalk
The Whatsapp folder is hidden, so don't expect to actually see it on Google Drive. But it's there. The thing, at least for me, is that the version of WA i get from Google Play doesn't have the Drive feature, so I have to download it directly from their website AND disable automatic updates (as of now, version number is higher on Play than on the website).
If you install a Drive-enabled version of WA, it will restore your Drive backup. Unfortunately, I don't know whether this feature disparity is universal or not.
So how to do it please tell me
try in whatsapp choosing Settings and then tapping on Chats and calls . Choose Chat backup to access the Google Drive options, and edit the various options...... have u tried this??? if u dont see these options try to update whatsapp over aptoid app store (search aptoid apk on google if u dont hv it) there is always never version than play store... try this

This will definatly work..
you need to use the same phone number and Google account used to create the back up. Then, follow these steps to restore your backup:
1. Make sure the same Google account that was used to perform the backup has been added to your phone.
2. Uninstall and reinstall WhatsApp.
3. After verifying your number, you will be prompted to restore your messages and media from Google Drive.
4. After the restoration process is complete, tap on Next and your chats will be displayed once initialization is complete.
5. After restoring your chats, WhatsApp will begin restoring your media files.

How to backup and restore whatsapp on same phone

Hello friends,
We all know about verification process/step of whatsapp, whenever we install whatsapp on our phone we have to enter our phone number and activate it. It does not matter if we reinstall whatsapp on same phone or on another phone, we all have to enter sms code or call to activate/verify it.
My question is that, is it possible to save activation data/file/setting of whatsapp so that I do not have to reactivate it after I re-install it in *SAME PHONE*.
If its possible, please tell me how to do it?
I have already rooted my samsung s6edge phone.
Regards

After titanium back up and restore, will it ask for verification again or it will save the verification data too? Have you tried it before? please let me know if you have tried it.
Thank you for replying.

You don't need to verify anything. Just restore the app & settings with titanium backup. The whatsapp folder must be in the same place.

I only want to confirm because, every time I update or remove whatsapp, I have to get sms to activate and enter into whatsapp, so by using titanium backup whatsapp will not ask me for 'send sms' or 'call me', right?
