You myst be rooted for this. Use titanium backup to backup everything to your sdcard on the old phone. Then put that card in the new phone and restore. DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM APPS OR DATA. That will only lead to major headache.

^^^like he said. Titanium backup. I have gone thru 6 phones in the last 2 years and always restore my games data with this app. Totally worth the price.

Can you explain the tooting process? I've mostly been using titanium to debloat
I might suggest mybackup root or my backup pro

So I've been using titanium backup now for about 3 years. Sometime between then and now Google has included a service that backs up your apps and app data for you, and restores them on your new or freshly wiped phone.
My question is does it really backup all your app data? I'm assuming it just re-downloads the apps from the play store and restores that apps data? And how often does android backup your apps data?
Some clarification on how this works would be great. Thanks.

Yeah want to know this too!
And how I'm able to delete these apps, because every time I accidentally leave the box ticked, it downloads apps I don't use... Like freakbook, and its pretty annoying, that's why I don't use it anymore...

The app have to support application backup for it to work.

I, too, would love to learn more about managing what's stored in Google from our phones. I've been on Android for years now, and can't imagine how much crap is up there that would be worthless today. Having an option to review your backed up apps and data with the ability of pruning would be wonderful.

Hi folks,
I would like to invite your suggestions on what backup apps you are using which have the ability to export/import full backup on cloud without using PC in the process.
I am on 4.2.1 stock and rooted. I just don't want to store the backup on phone itself(not too much storage on nexus anyway).
Thanks for taking the time to read the post!

Titanium backup. Awesome tool, will backup all apps and data on any schedule you like, or just manually, then sync to the cloud storage of your choice.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Agreed. I use Titanium and sync it to my DropBox, all automatically on schedule
Titanium is great for sure. Although I am now using Koush's new backup app, Carbon. It is boss!
I just signup for Box and they gave me 50gig free

Super backup

Also using titanium pro for my backups.
Titanium Backup, then it can syncs to Box.com/Dropbox/GoogleDrive.
But I just change the folder of Titanium to the actual titanium folder on the sdcard and transfer it to my PC.. upload on my ISP is slow and would take forever..
Been using Carbon for backing up data and super backup for sms/call log backups. I love Carbon, back-up to Dropbox and Google Drive is pretty slick.
And with super backup, I always have the file emailed to my gmail for safe keeps.
Carbon. It's fast and let's you auto sync backups across multiple devices.

I have been using tb pro for ages but I had noticed some inconvenience when restoring backup up apps taken from another rom...
any one else experienced the same ?
Back up alternative
Hi there,
I use an online back up service. The one I use has an appfor mobile devices. If you would like the link drop me an email and I will send it for you.
Hope this helps.
Just started using Carbon and as a former Titanium backup user I'm quite impressed.

Seems like carbon is getting popular. I would give it a try as well.

I use carbon and sync it to my box account. You get 50gb storage on there for having an lg device
When you guys say carbon syncs between devices can you explain how exactly? Do I have to hit a sync button then it syncs between? Is it automatic for certain apps you specify?
I use data sync to do this auto, but it's a beta and occasionally has issues.
I do it manually. I've heard there's a way to do it automatically but I haven't discovered it yet

Carbon w/ Dropbox is working great for me. Saved me from hours of reconfiguring after a bad install got me bootlooped.

DataSync
I don't understand why carbon is getting so much attention?? DataSync has been around much longer and is much better than carbon. Carbon only has its use for those who don't want rooted devices. DataSync automatically syncs your data from apps/games every time you start/close that app or game. You can use it with box, dropbox, ftp, drive (in a week or so), wifi, bluetooth. It does everything Carbon does but better and automatically. You set up a list of apps you want synced or backed up and it backs everything up every time you have used an app on that list.
The new alpha release is very stable and works great! U can get it here.

DataSync. Titanium did not work for some reason, so I searched for alternatives. The paid version is capable of auto backing up and syncing to other devices. But since I don't have more than one Android device in use, I don't need that and can live with dropbox backups.
Hello
I just got my note 2, moving on from the Galaxy S2 running CM 10.1. I have not rooted my phone yet but tried us my backup pro. It worked except for none my apps have my old data, such as saved games. I had problems with this before with titanium pro. Has anyone tried google backup or any other suggestions?
Thanks.

Download the app on your new phone and sign in with the same account thats linked to the old phone

I do it with Titanium backup. It works fine. Apps are fairly easy to restore with data. Big games are much more troublesome. Their data are bigger and store in different areas so no so easily backed up.
If you haven't rooted yet, try Carbon. It doesn't require you to be rooted to backup apps and data.
I use Titanium backup to keep my M8 backed up safely. I also do a 'update zip' every now and again and keep it on my laptop.
The problem I get is it will randomly come up with 'Titanium backup is restoring your data' it then asks me to reboot and when I have it has restored old data and deleted some apps and all my login details to Facebook etc! How do I stop it from over writing my perfectly setup phone with old data?
Thanks

It's just done it again after a reboot!! The only way I can seem to stop it is uninstall titanium back and I don't want to do that.

all restoring data does is cause troubles ... it takes all of 10 - 15 min to setup the phone from scratch ( i use google and htc backup)
