I've updated to the lastest samsung kies and tried to backup my files in my SGS but it says unknown error occurred.
i couldn't view my contacts in samsung kies too.
HELP!
i've rooted my phone and lag fixed it before, does this affect anything?
Honestly, since a long time ago I am not using Kies anymore. I don't see any benefit in it. If you want to backup your device, just use Titanium Backup or My backup pro. It's working a lot better than Kies.
So, i've tried to restore my market apps after a factory rest and flashign a new rom, it never works, no matter if i use a custom or a stock rom, when i enter the market, i can't restore the apps i had, having hundreds of apps installed, manually doing them all, is a pain...
does anyone know of any app that can do this? or if there is some way to confgure the phone or market to do it?
Use titanium, available in the market. Thank me!
Edit...by pro version for batch reinstall,pps...u shouldn't be flashing roms if you don't know about backing up and restoring!

Titanium Backup is the app you want. It will store all your apps and app data in a folder on your SD...so that when you reinstall a new ROM, or factory reset, it pulls all the info back out of that folder.
While it will save and restore all your apps, the free version requires you to click "Yes" and "Done" to install each app, where the paid version will let you do it as a batch....yes to all, done.
And if you haven't rooted, AppMonster is a good alternative..

I know how to backup and restore, and i know titanium and it's not what i want...
i want a market restore, if install from titanium (which doesn't work across different OS versions) the apps are local isntalls and the market won't pass me updates from them, what i want is to have an app that reinstalls everything from the market so i can get update notifications, and so the restore will work regardless of what OS version i happen to flash into the phone.

Android comes with an option that when you sign into your Google account on your phone that all you market apps restore on their own but Samsung removed this option, so TIBU is your only hope, or appmonster

If your Market app does not detect re-installed apps, you can clear the Market app data at "Manage Applications" menu. This will trigger the Market app to rescan your apps..
Happened to me before and that did the trick.
Titanium backup has allowed me over the years to go from 1.5 -> 1.6 -> 2.0 -> 2.1 -> 2.2 -> 2.3 while changing handsets quite happily, so not sure why the OP thinks it cannot.
I did have to purge market cache and data once or twice, but as long as I remembered to run market access first its never failed to reattach or relearn what was installed post restoration.
Also found Joel (the author) to be helpful and responsive the once or twice I had a problem via emails ...

You have to enable backup data. Go to Settings>Privacy. After fresh installation ROM, you have to sign in Google account. After a while, your apps will appear.

Same happens to me. Have done several FR and even switched phone, but it has never worked (the standard from Google). Any suggestions?
As far as I observed:
The google way only works on AOSP-ROMs (Cyanogen).
Samsung disabled the option (just not in UI *fail*).
Restoring data across OS-versions does not work 100%. System-settings often work, system apps hardly ever work, Other apps sometimes make problems (Angry Birds never works for me).
With Titanium restoring completely breaks when switching from CM7 to a Samsung-ROM or vice versa
Hey guys,
I got the gear 2 neo as a gift yesterday, i have an HTC m8 and an iphone 5, i downloaded an application called samsung gear on the M8 (costs like 2.5$) but found out that there is no Samsung store in it (which should be obvious)
So i guess i must root the gear right?
I read that i must have the NE5 firmware, i can't know if i have this firmware or not.. my software version is R381XXU0ANCD , how can i know if it is the NE5 and how can i download the NE5 firmware if mine isn't it?
The rooting procedure isn't a problem to me.
After rooting, will I be able to install custom faces or load some faces i downloaded from the net easily? and how? since my mobile doesn't have the Samsung store so i can't install that trendie watches app or any other app ..
Any help please?
And can I benefit completely from the gear 2 neo if i pair it with my iphone 5?
Many thanks guys
Exact Thing here.
I do have the HTC One M7 and the Gear 2 Neo, trying to Install Apps to the watch..
Do I have to root the watch and the M7 to make apps (apks) work or only the watch?
Is there a possibility to install the Samsung Apps - Store and download apps to my HTC?
I experimented the whole Nights.. I managed to install the Gear Manager, Notifications do work but no Apps..
Thanks in Advance, i appreciate any Help!
you shuold be able to install apps....for the most part the gear apps are thru the samsung app store.
but being that its rooted you can install the apps thru a filemanager and then run it
I am able to install apps to my device. when I open them, it should create an icon on my watch.
Nothing happens except a massage on my phone "the app can not be installed".
Would rooting my watch solve that issue?
i told you that i don't have the store cz im not a samsung user...
can anyone help please??

we did. your not a samsung user. so your only option is to root your hand set. as well as the watch. rooting your hand set will allow you to install apps via the store. the store would have to be side loaded of course. which means installed by you off a sd card or downloaded file to your device(phone). the watch would need to be rooted to by pass samsungs app protection. to allow apps to be installed by a none samsung phone. then all you do is side load your apps. the watch rom i use is here. either way you need to root. hopefully your watch is still version NE5 as that has root. the new NL2 i believe currently is awaiting a generous dev to have a look.

For titanium you need to have root access
Full backup can be done without root you can do it with a custom recovery (twrp)

How can I do that custom recovery you speak about?
You can backup Your apps by using Helium from PlayStore and a USB connected PC.
Very nice gonna try that!!

Please could you let me know is it any chance I can do frimware downgrade (Without root access) and keep all data without losing them?

you can backup all your data to SD card from Settings
This won't do copy 1to 1. Back in settings does not do back up like titanium backup. All app i will have to download and install. Apps which aren't in play store or cracked apps won't be install. Plus all internal settings in each app won't be safe. This backup in settings is useless.

Yes. then try Migrate app or Swift Backup. I think that's what you need.

Thank you for answer. Do those apps need root access? I have forgotten to mention apps need to work without root
