EFS: is backing it up necessary? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since I moved from an S2, do I have to also backup the EFS folder in the S6 as well to backup my IMEI?

Well atleast to say it would be smart to backup EFS on the S6 if you play alot with flashing.

Not yet, but I may in the future. What tool is the best to backup? I'm not rooted

[Q] EFS backup

Hello, i performed an EFS folder backup using EFS Professional. My question is, why it needs Busybox to work? I must have Busybox installed if i need to restore the EFS folder? I'm on 4.2 stock and rooted.
PS: the backup went ok, no errors. There is anothe better way to backup EFS on gt-i9105P?
PS2: Restoring a nandroid backup, also restore the EFS folder?
there is very little chance that your efs folder will be blown up .. now that you have a backup , you need not need to worry .. while flashing roms and wiping dat , and restoring roms via cwm backup and restore you only need to restore the rom and not the efs folder backup .. if in case , you do not find your imei no. or your efs folder and stuff , you can at any given time restore it manually .. correct me if i am wrong but that is how it works . all the best and Happy Flashing

[Completed] can i restore my apps only from cwm backup?

i have a cwm backup and want to restore apps from it . ant way to do it?
Hi,
If your cwm version has an option to restore data partition only... That can work. But, I've read many issues from people trying to do this. Using Titanium backup to backup your apps and data is by far the better way.
You could restore your full backup. Get titanium backup and backup your apps and data. Then flash a new rom and get titanium backup again and restore your user apps.
That's the best and most popular way. ?
Good luck!

[Completed] Please help... TWRP backup question

I have the following problem. I had a huge playlist on poweramp and after updating my galaxy a5 2016 to marshmallow, the path of my external sd card changed. I opened poweramp and the playlist was there but empty. I guess i could have saved the playlist but messed up...
Ok, the playlist is gone but i have made a nandroid backup from twrp before updating my phone. My question is... How can i restore my apps and data properly on twrp on a galaxy note2 for example? Trying to restore the data from the nandroid backup in titanium backup always ends the same. Titanium tells me it has restored the app and data but there is simply no app at all installed after that!
Do you have any ideas how to get the the app and data inside of the nandroid backup?
Thank you!
