When going from one device to another, is there a way to back up all my apps, wallpaper, and other data and then transfer to the new phone? Does the Google backup that's built into the settings do this when you sign in on the new device. Is there a 3rd party app that can do this?
Thanks guys.

You can try smart switch. It doesn't automatically download all your apps but gives easy access to them. But it does recover other stuff from old device

Helium is great....but it won't backup or restore app data.....just the app itself. But that is better than nothing.....

Switching from my S4 to the S5 using Helium did bring the app data - for me at least.
From the app description:
Helium does NOT require root. All Android users can use Helium to backup and sync Android applications.
Helium lets you backup your apps and data to your SD card or cloud storage.
Thanks for the info. I will have to check it out again

Hi ppl
Is there any way to have all apps installed the way it was before switching to a new rom ? I mean when I try out new roms I have to install all apps again. I've tried my backup pro and titanium but they only restore all apps. Anyone has a faster way of doing this??

I'm using MyBackup root therefor. Here you can restore all apps with the data in batch mode. But I think MyBackup pro should also do it.
Did u backup your apps along with all their data? There is an option in Titanium Backup to do so in the batch option. I still have my high scores of Temple Run
MyBackup Pro seems to be the best bet considering Titanium does create issues for some folks.
But do remember restoring apps can produce errors in the working of the ROM which otherwise wouldn't exist.
Safest best is to clean instal your apps again.
Tx guys but I cannot get all apps installed . It only restores them with their respective data. I don't wanna install all apps again one by one after flashing a new rom

Titanium backup has a batch restore mode where you can restore more than one app at a time. If this is not what you mean, I don't have a clue what you're talking about.
I haven't used titanium but I'll check it out. Just to make sure do the apps get installed or just restored? I mean do I have to hit the install button for every app?

Listen buddy, this is a community here. Respect others to get respect for yourself.
Your posts are quite inconsistent.
In the same thread, at the start of the post you mentioned you have used Titanium & a couple of posts later you state you HAVE NOT yet used titanium.
with incorrect/incomplete info no one would be able to assist you correctly & your frustration levels are going to rise.
@letmedanz I didn't mean to disrespect anyone but the way nonverbose responded wasn't cool.
Anyway what I meant when I said I used titanium was that I installed it and removed it within minutes. But I'm not here to prove anything so am gonna forget it and apologize to whoever I offended.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA
That's cool buddy..
Anyhow, a couple of options are available...
at most times when you install a fresh rom, android automatically installs the apps you had on earlier.
This happens when you run the new rom for the first time, in the initial setup.
Provided you have synced your phone with your gmail account.
once you provide your wifi and/or apn details android will automatically download and instal all the apps.
your second option is as you mentioned, third party apps like titanium & mybackup pro.
personally, i prefer MBP cos titanium has given me more than one problem.
MBP is a neat app, you can either backup/restore all apps or just select a few.
howevre , i still believe it is best to reinstall all apps after a new rom instal, cos restored apps may force close or have other issues specially if you are changing between GB & ICS etc
+1 for Titanium backup !!!
You can backup personnal applications, but their settings and your system settings too !!!
The retore process is quicker than google process because you haven't to download applications from network.
Settings...Image?

I have titanium backup pro and have not figured out how to restore all the settings. Maybe I'm confused, but I have to spend hours setting all the preferences, screens widgets etc each time I flash a new ROM. I've heard you can "Image" backup. Does Titanium do that?
Go backup and go backup pro is best..It don't prompt to install each and every app every time..batch restore with data..easy than titanium backup..

Make sure you know what you're talking about before you post. Titanium backup pro HAS batch restore mode in which you don't have to INDIVIDUALLY install every app.

I want to root my 7, but because you need to wipe data to do it I'm looking for the easiest way to backup app data without root. Is there any way other than in-app backups, which of course only some apps support?

That only backs up data if you have root.
adb backup - this should preserve app data (not apps though afaik). You can restore after you've wiped using adb as well.
Sweet, I didn't dare dream it would be THAT easy.

There is also a version of "MyBackup" that does not require root...I have it installed on an unrooted GS3.

Yes, there is. No, it can't back up data without root.
EDIT: It can only do that if the app you're backing up supports MyBackup's special backup.

You can also use carbon app for backup. I like it very much as it allows us to backup all data with app in a single click and takes a single click only to restore.
So after installing rom, just select all apps for restore and click restore. It will install all the apps one by one by itself and wont ask for every single app to install seperately!!

TB will be the best option. With pro you can also backup to Dropbox or Google Drive services

So my charger is kind of wonky and I have to exchange my One since they can't just replace the charger due to company policies. What is the best method for backing up everything for a non-rooted device? I am mostly concerned about my save data from games and app configurations as well as the stuff that the apps installed onto my storage.
Thanks.

You could try Carbon Backup App from the play store. That works for non rooted phones, but you'll have to connect to PC to set it up properly.
Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.backup&hl=en
More info here and PC download: http://www.clockworkmod.com/carbon
Agree with the post above, Carbon is the best for non root, it backs up to your sd card but you can choose to back it up to the cloud and it's easy to restore it as well

It will work, if you use it to backup your data on rooted phone, and restore to the unrooted device .
Best method is to use the HTC Backup app. It comes on the international and unlocked variants and is also in the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htc.backup&hl=en
Come on guys... I expected better.

What app data does it backup? I just tried it, and the size of the folder on Dropbox is only 6.9 mb. It cannot be for all my app data!

Hmm, wonder if it only backs up app data for HTC apps. From the description, it sounds like it backs up all of your apps and data though. That would be pretty misleading if it doesn't.

Well HTC Backup doesn't backup all your app data, just the apps that HTC have preloaded, TV, Mail etc
How about
adb backup -apk -all

Adb backup *.apk
This is the right command

Carbon backup is the best.
It does the same thing as wifi adb, but turn it into graphical UI and easy to use.
I moved my apps and data as well as sms in i9000, which is an old smart phone, to my new HTC ONE within 30 minutes.

If you do a TWRP backup on the Gear, when you re - pair the Gear, it should restore all the Samsung settings, then if you restore the data only from the TWRP backup it will restore all of your sideloaded apps, Nova settings, widgets etc.
