I going to sell my Xperia s and buy Xperia z ,the problem is how can I copy save game data to Xperia z
And can I use restore and backup app for this
It may depend on the game but the first place I'd look is data/data/. You may need to take a guess at what your games package name is but it should be in there somewhere.

..Have you tried Tickle My Android yet?
Use backup in setting to backup using Google.
Or use backup and restore app to backup all XS data them copy backup file to XZ and use the app again to restore it with all your apps

Wifi maybe is worse on 4.2.2 (and above..) but more stable when it comes to connection stability..
My own experiences though!

noob
could you please explain this steps (Just download the latest Android 4.1.2 firmware and flash using Flashtool) because it will be my first time to play around with firmwares and i dont want to f*** up my phone I want to downgrade my xperia z because from the time on i upgraded to jelly bean 4.2.2 the Phone and Contacs icons disapeared and i think its because i backed up my phone on Titanium Backup two firmwares below 4.2.2 and then after upgrading two times it restored automaticly the backup from the Phone and Contact Apps and the new update doesent support these old versions...
also the icon disappearing thing happened on my previous firmware ( before i upgraded to 4.2.2, so in my first updrage after the firmware i backed up ) always when i turned my phone off , but then i just restored it each time from Titanium Backup, with restore App+Data, and i justed wonderd why this is happening...now when i try to restore it from Titanium Backup it stucks in the loading process..

Brother you cannot restore system apps from different version of android.
Nd to downgrade first download a ftf of your country and download flashtool and install it
Second- paste the ftf in fimewires folder of flashtool folder(c:\Flashtool\firmwares)
Third-open flashtool
Fourth-click lightning botton on the top left. And select flashmode.
Fifth-click the firmware on the left
Sixth-uncheck appslog,cache nd data on the right if downgrading(to prevent bootloop nd this wipes your internal storage)
Seventh-click flash nd wait for sometime till a box pops up saying connect in flashmode.so to connect in flashnode hold volume down and connect in pc nd then let the process finish.
After 5 min it will flash and you will see flashing finished.now you have successfully downgrades yoir fimeware...enjoy

im pretty much a noob so i have some questions..ftf is a firmware like jely bean 4.1.2? what firmware is 2 times below 4.2.2? where can i find an original sony xperia Z firmware like this (i live in germany if this is importand )? and if i downgrade to the firmware i made the backup what should i then do to proceed with an upgrade whithout having problems again? i mean should i erase first titanium backup and then downlaod it after i updated and then make a new backup or something like this? And was my prediction right of what the reason was that the calling app kept disapearing by rebooting my phone?

Which android version do you want 4.3 or 4.2.2

If i flash the latest version (say the Jelly Bean 4.3) can i then restore from my backup all tha apps+data, not the system apps as the calling app, without having problems? Also can i then restore my Contacts (Contact Storage)? If so please the latest version

First of all bro ftf are firmware packages.and you can get any ftf in general section of xperia z forum but you need to search a bit.
Nd if you are using titanium backup,since 4.3 cannot be rooted for now, you meight need to flash a prerooted rom and then restore your apps/data from.TB..nd for contacts,measage you can use gcloud which can be found in playstore.

Oook..So first i have to install the rom and then flash the ftf? My phone is also rooted now...with changing the rom will it be automaticly unrooted? Also the rom you gave is just for UK i think, or is this irrelevant and just the ftf needs to be from my country? :/ And do i need to create a recovery.img file?
Sorry for these questions..as i said im pretty much a noob on this things
Also gcloud cant find any contact becaus e they are non...they just exist as an titanium backup backupfile which i cant restore because its an system app..:/

Bro it does not matter which country rom you are using,,nd for installation just flash the rom in custom recovery before that wipe everything data,cache nd dalvic cache nd after instillation power off your devuce ns flash the kernel from the ftf but before flashing once read the installation procedure of the rom.

Nd for getting all your contacta you need to flash that firmware. In which you took backup nd root it nd install tb nd restore all contacts nd finally backup in gcloud..

Hi,
I wanted to know if the backups made on jellybean firmware are compatible with the 4.4 kitkat firmware.
Or it asks you to make new backups and calls them incompatible as for the 4.2 to 4.3 transition.
Backups made using the Sony Backup Restore App.
Thanks for you time

Incompatible.

I would suggest all will be fine
Since that's 2 different bits of advice, just try it and see I think you will find it will be ok
Thanks but I need to be more sure.
I plan to format the phone while updating to 4.4, otherwise I'll have to update--> backup and then format...which is a pain.
Sent from my C6602 using XDA Free mobile app
Im sure .i backed up 4.3 then wiped to 4.4 and back up didnt get accepted. Maybe go titanium backup if u know how to use it but sony back up restore wont wont work. The base xperia apps like.phone contact says xml is incompatible. Maybe third party apps will work but not phone or message app etc.

if you have a ta backup you can unlock and relock the bootloader without any problem like the first day. even the sony cant realize that.but if you dont want to unlock the bootloader i think iHackers and RomAur are best.fast and stable
but you may have some issues with Xposed Framework (which is really handy) in LB.
but these two i think are the best based on stock roms
for note,I'm using iHackers v4.1 with unlocked bootloader
Ya I have many ta backups. But I shud unlock only after 6th Oct,my lifestyle is too dangerous to ignore warranty (I KNOW SONY CANNOT IF I RELOCK,STILL.. As I have no personal pc..ll buy in Oct)o thanks anyway.. M downloading ihackers 4.1 minimal version now.

If you relock bootloader via TA backup, no one can notice that .means sony cannot realize it and your warranty stands.
and i think,i think,if i'm not wrong, rooting the phone will break the warranty .. ! again i'm saying, i think
Sorry, I just saw the rules..no best' rom thread allowed. I tried to edit but in vein! Sorry...
Hmm...m searching Sony.Co.in about this pal... "Does root void warranty? "

You can use Flashtool to download and flash your country's firmware. No root required.
See: How to package and flash stock roms in FTF format.
I noticed you're from India. I already packaged a stock 10.5.1.A.0.283 generic Indian FTF for the C6602 that you can use here.

If you go to the guide that I linked you to in my earlier post, it tells you how to do everything step by step with images.
Download the stock rom I linked, then follow part 1 and part 3 of the guide. I cannot explain it any better than the guide I already created.
