application and tap the Backup

button, an option will pop up

asking wether you want to backup

your apps or data.....

When you backup your apps via

MyBackup, you will be presented

with an option of either selecting

certain apps you want backed up

or all your apps......

With backing up your DATA you

backup either straght to your

SDCard or to a Online server, for

later restoring..... same with the

app menu you can choose what to

backup or backup the your entire

data on the ROM, when backup is

complete it will create a ZIP file

on you SDCard.......

which is a great feature to have

especially if you forget to backup

sometimes.........

the RESTORE button and restore

what you want........

How to backup & restore all your

data, contacts etc..... on your

Android device running a Custom

ROM with Custom Recovery MENU

or Backup Software

Nandroid backup

For ROOTED Users, you will

obviously have a Custom Recovery

installed with your ROM..... As

with most Nandroid recovery

systems you can backup & restore

all data right from this menu.......

There are many custom recoveries

available the most common one

being the ClockworkMod Recovery, Just boot into

the recovery console, tap on the

backup/restore tag, usually

through the menu Backup and

restore > Backup or restore...

To Restore follow the same

method as backup option, boot

into Recovery Mode and select

Backup and restore > Restore.

Titanium Backup

Another option for rooted Android

users is Titanium Backup.

Titanium Backup gives you direct

access to your system. If you have

not used this program before

make sure to read all release notes

and methods of using the program

as mistakes can be made....

Once you’ve launched the app,

click on the Backup/Restore tab

and click the Menu button on your

phone. From the menu that

appears, select Batch. At the next

menu, click [RUN] Backup all user

apps + system data. You can

choose to backup just your user

apps and system data but you can

choose a complete and total

backup of your phone.

Depending on how much of your

phone you’ve chosen to back up,

the initial backing up process can

take anywhere from a few minutes

to half an hour or even more. Just

like a Nandroid backup, you can

opt to copy the backup file to your

computer. Navigate to the /

Titanium Backup directory on your

device’s SD card and you can find

your backup there, ready for

safekeeping.

When you’d like to restore your

backup, you can enjoy the same

Batch function. Select Menu >

Batch. On the Backup/Restore

menu, scroll down to find restore

options.
