I've tried Google's app syncing, Helium, and MyBackup and none of them seem to transfer my app data! I have apps where I absolutely must have the data from my old phone but I can't seem to get anything to work. What is everyone else using?
Edit: I don't have root

Same problem trying to use HTC's Transfer App. Also, the HTC Sync Manager does not recognize the phone when connected to my desktop.
Spent a long time on the phone with an HTC CSR yesterday before I got cut off, but no success.
---------- Post added at 09:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 AM ----------
Just got off the phone with another HTC CSR on these two issues: 1.) HTC Transfer App doesn't work and 2.) HTC Sync Manager software doesn't recognize the 10.
He had no clue and said he would escalate the problems. He said I should hear back in 24-48 hrs.
The HTC Sync Manager doesn't handle apps anyway. I didn't have a problem syncing contacts, messages, etc. It's the apps that are giving my trouble.
U can use modded moto migrate app or just TB the legend of backing apps with data using this ull not need to download apps and register/verify apps detail again just transfer data from old phone
And using TBP u apps also get installed automatically

Nope. I'm holding off on root at least until I get the camera update via OTA.
If you ever used HTC Backup/Restore AND if you have a backup from not too long ago, you can use that to accellerate the start-up process. I restored an M9 backup from February on my new 10 and it did make for faster setup.
Have you ever used adb backup/restore?

Titanium Backup does this. You can backup/restore apps & settings. Also, you can extract the .apk files and copy them to your sd card.

I'll second the Titanium Backup recommendation, makes it easy to get your apps back where they were after your flash a new ROM or wipe. It's a must have app for any Android phone IMO and is good enough to be a sole reason for rooting (I rooted my mom's OG Droid just so she could use TB)
Is there a auto install for titanium? Instead if running batch and clicking install for every app?

The paid version doesn't require you to click install for every app (it's a true batch operation).
Do i need the premium key??

Hey I have a question. So I'm going from a captivated to a HTC Inspire. And I don't want to root. But I do have some photos and files that are saved on titanium backup in my vault free app. Is there a way to get those off of there and on my new phone without having to

Your last sentence is incomplete.

I don't really get it. You have an App called "Vault free" that saved files & pics for you?
Did you try just to reinstall the app and restore the data from SD?
Sorry the last part should be root. See the issue is I have the data saved in tb. I can get vault free from the market but not the original data from tb. So my question is is there any way to maybe pull the data out of the tb folder on the computer and maybe get it back in vault free?

Do you still have the Captivate? Can you download the files from TB to the Capti, then upload to your computer??
Also, you know you are going to want to root some day, why not just do it now??
Lol I am going to want to root. This is actually the first phone that does everything perfect. It is so fast. And I don't have the captivated anymore but I have all the files on my inspire SD card. All the.folders are there but just can't open and view the pictures

If you just want to backup your pictures.
You can plug usb cable then direct backup to your pc

I just delete them, if you mess up, you can always ODIN restore your phone or just reflash the ROM.

I deleted them too.
I also deleted the sprint tv, ID, sprint zone. I also deleted the ap mobile app since I don't use it. I also back them up on my dropbox and my external sd card. I used titanium backup.
Just wondering if i create a backup of my apps (whats app, games etc) and then restore them after installing any custom rom, do i need to re-register them?
Like for whats app, do i need to register it again? Asking this question because i used a number which was 'accidentally' transferred to someone else by vodafone and yet my what's app works fine right now.

You cant restore apps from a unrooted phone. You need root. You can it do with titanium backup.

For non-rooted apk backup.
"Appmonster" is the one i am using now. It only will backup your added stuff easily. Different programs have different mechanisms for licencing, so there are some that certannly will have to re-connect with the store or something before they will be the paid version. Others that it is a part added securely, and one (piece of crap) wanted to licence verify every day. Appmonster does not backup extra external data stuff, So i do that manually, and again it might still have to connect to finish. or check licence.
there are 2 others that do the simple backup installed apps to apk packages, both worked (unrooted) for what you can do unrooted, i just happen to be using appmonster because it was simple, and aimable to a folder. Some paid programs are not able to be backed up with it, some secured stuff .
Try Helium too. Need to hook up to a PC for it to work though. Works with uprooted.

I want to start fresh after the kk update. I have a profile for me and my son. I looked into helium but it has iffy results judging by feedback I read. Are there any other options? I would like to avoid root for now but since I bought square trade warranty I suppose it's not a huge deal.
I back all my stuff using KIES. Backs up my apps, snotes, system settings, etc.

helium is working fine for me but you have to connect your device to a PC and runa script to be able to save or restore anything.
price for non rooted devices and probably the reason for low feadback.
I also use it to transfer apps from my phone to tablet.
Any one tried mybackup from the playstore?
Been thinking of testing it out, but never find the time....

I've had varying success with Helium. When I do a system reset and try to restore from Helium about 80% of the apps will restore with data and the rest just fails. There's no explanation of reasoning behind which ones fail. And, when restoring all of the apps the process stops when a restore fails. I have to then start restoring after the failed app.
If you are relying on getting that data back don't count on Helium.
So apart from all the great guy stuff do search on Google for full backup android using adb. No rooting needed.
I would give you the link but I am on my phone today...

I am using it for a long time, very fast with backup & restore sms`s & call logs, but toooooo slow restoring apps.
What about Ultimate backup ?
Any way to backup screen layout? Without root that is...
