Great work so far.

Are you planning to incorporate a complete backup solution or just settings backup?

I am asking because as of now in order for a complete restore multiple apps need to be used; currently I use this app for settings, SMS backup and restore, call log backup and restore, and titanium for apps and data.
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
Thanks!

I understand, it's pretty complicated with so many apps but it's impossible for me to merge all the functions of the backup apps in one.

You know, f.a. Titanium Backup devs spent years on developing this awesome app, I'd need the same time (and more) just for this one app and there are much more.

Thanks for understanding!
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
Now with system bar tint.. nice one

Hi, is there any way to delete old backups from the app without searching for them with a file explorer, if it isn't could you please add it in your next update othere than that, the app is awesome it saves me alot of time :).
[Android Apps and Games] PunchUp:
Settings > Delete backups
[Android Apps and Games] bpaulien:
One quick feature request. I have noticed that the sorting of backups in the delete section is first by ROM name and then by date. But in the restore tab, it seems to be somewhat random. At first I thought it was by date but upon a closer look, that isn't true either. Anyway I guess my request would be to sort the list of backups in the restore tab the same way they are displayed in the delete section. By ROM name and then by date.
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
Will look at that, thanks

Sorry, I'm busy at personal life. So didn't checked op. Any new or edited strings to translate? :D
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
Yeah there are 2 new ones: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hQ1SK4tWGZhFwky0D6cMXMxeeOyIQW3a5lusT4ErSLw/edit?usp=sharing
[Android Apps and Games] pakitos:
Maybe you could make a spreadsheet in Google Docs or use the other translation websites to keep track of the translations specially since its really painful to check what was added. :(

That way it would be easier for us to translate and also for you once the translations are done.

Edit: I just noticed the "updated...." but in spanish we didnt translate the ones before october 19, thats what I meant :P

Bluetooth

hi flextrick,

as I tried last night bluetooth settings are not saved and/or restored (data of paired devices) using your app - any change for you to add bluetooth settings in the data you save/restore ?

so long rainer
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
Alright, I'll look what I can do, thanks for the hint!

SlimROM Build 8.8 -> 8.12.1

Hello,

I really like the idea of this app but unfortunately I have problems running it. I did a backup of my settings on my Moto G running SlimKat build 8.8. It reported a success. I clean flashed the new build 8.12.1 and tried a restore of my settings. Although it reported a success again not a single one of my old settings was restored.

I figured out three possible reasons for this:

- ROM Settings Backup has problems with the built-in "Superuser" root app in SlimKat. Maybe it would work if I use Chainfire's "SuperSU"?

- I was running on ART while doing the backup and the restore. Maybe ROM Settings Backup has a problem with ART?

- ROM Settings Backup simply isn't compatible with newer builds of SlimKat (>8.x)

Any idea what might be the reason and what I can do to use this nice app?

Gruß/Regards

[Android Apps and Games] black_bottom:
hi flextrick,

data of wlan (esp. wlan-hotspot) where not save/restored. perhaps you can add it (only an idea/proposal, not critiscm) ?

[Android Apps and Games] Primokorn:
Lockscreen security doesn't seem to be correctly saved/restored.

I had a pattern to unlock the screen and it has not been restored after a clean flash of the same rom (Carbon SaberMod). I'm back on the default slide to unlock option.

[Android Apps and Games] Vibsi:
Hi,

I tried the following today (Moto G XT1032 1st Gen.)

- I used latest ROM Settings Backup with Dalvik and SuperSU on SlimKat Build 8.12.1. The settings were saved without an error (according to the app).

- I clean flashed SlimKat Build 8.14 and installed ROM Settings Backup from PlayStore.

- I restored my settings successfully (according to the app) and rebooted the device.

- Nothing - not a single one of my old settings is restored. :(

So either I'm doing something seriously wrong or the app just isn't working with SlimKat on my device.

I will happily provide the log files if it helps.
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
[MENTION=5196084]Vibsi[/MENTION]

And one question.. did you change the saving destination?

Yes. You can only restore setting from the same roms. You can't restore setting from a rom to a different rom. They handle them difderently

http://blissroms.com/
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
That's not completely true. You can also restore settings from other roms if they use the same or similar flags. AICP uses different flags than other ROMs, so the restoring works just for a few festures/flags and the others get filled with the default values.

Wow, thank you very much.. I really appreciate it!

Not yet, but I'll think about it as I got much requests for this Rom.

But for now you can add it yourself by clicking the "Add.." option in the ROMs list. ;)

Changes:

I added a dialog for the case that root access has been denied.. this is because CyanogenMod changed to the root handling.

Any plans to support chroma ROM for the nexus 6?
[Android Apps and Games] synesthesiac:
Tasker Support

Thanks for the app. I've been looking for something like this for a long time, and it works really well.

I was wondering if you could include a Plugin for Tasker? Or an intent which triggers a specific restore. With your app's privacy guard backup, I'd like to save a specific set of settings for when I want to save battery. Basically I'd set up privacy guard to block a bunch of alarms, wakes, and location checks on an array of apps. It would be nice to have Tasker be able to trigger a restore at the click of a button, or at night when I don't need that stuff running. Just turning off location doesn't block as much as I'd like to, but I think your app would do nicely.

Again.... Love the app! Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
Hey guys, sorry for the late response.. I have been and I am really busy, but I've got good news: BlissPop is going to be supported!! :)

Also I'm working on scheduled backups, I can't promise that it ever will be released due to stability.. but maybe.. lets see. ;)

Thank you for your research! I will need some time to integrate this and to test it, because I never use VPN on my mobile phone.

I don't know this ROM, but you can use this app without thoughts. The ROM list only says which ROMs are officially supported by myself and I can't support ROMs which I don't even know. Thanks for understanding!

I'm working on scheduled backups, I think this wil help you. :)
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
Your welcome, and thank you for the great app.

Have you thought about integrating it with certain Roms. I for one would love to see it incorporated with DU-Tweaks for DU rom. The only thing would be to check how to manage donate/pro version. Maybe as an add-on application, fx file explorer uses this method for root add-on and pro version add-on.

Just a thought.

As for vpn,

I tested it by copying files mentioned and moving them back after flash.

And, it works.

The only thing is with the file .masterkey

I am not exactly sure what it does, maybe needed for decrypting the vpn files themselves.

I noticed that it is better to restore files before enabling vpn, otherwise after restore you need a reboot and all is good.

Thank you for your work
[Android Apps and Games] Flextrick:
It's too late now.. DU is an absolutely free ROM and there won't ever be payment links or anything else.. but thanks for the hint!

Alright, sounds very good. I'll add it after scheduling works fine!
