Im still confused, i need things drawn out for me. So option 1 fully backs up the device partitions without system apps, or just user apps+data? I ask this because i saw that over at XDA News Portal, it says data+apps only but the backup file is about 3.8 GB. Does somebody mind straightening this up?

EDIT: Option 4 (backup apps) doesnt seem to work for my Desire HD. It finishes but the backup file is only 1 KB

It worked for me with stock Rom, should work if you are using 4.0+ .

No, please don't post any mirror links.
There was a problem with Dropbox.
It was not my fault.

Option 1 makes a backup of the internal and external SD card, apps, app data, device data.
I will add the Problem with Option 4 to the first post.

Hey,
great work. It works fine.
A question: how can I change the backup folder?
My SGS3 have 32GB and the backup of all apps and datas takes over 12GB on harddisk and my HD has only an amount of 32GB on C:\.
So I have not enough store place for the whole backup.

Started UBT.exe as admin on my Win7 x64 and before make a backup i must create a backup directory on c:!
Without it doesn't works.

Tip. When i fire my command in a cmd window like:
Code:
adb backup -apk -noshared -all -nosystem -f backup23082012.ab
..its create the backup file where adb.exe is.

Is there a tool around here to unpack the *.ab?

Oh, and on my device it works without a desktop password.

Hey Guys,

does anyone know if it is possible to make a backup form my htc one x apps and apps data and restore it on my nexus 7????

This would be great, but I want to be sure that it works.
N7 runs 4.1.1 and my HOX runs 4.0.3, both on stock rom....

AND, if it should work - I have a MBP 15" - am I able to run this via a virtual machine (vmware) Windows 7??

Thanks!!!

UNC-Paths and Batch-File

First, thanks for the script!

Since this is a batch file using the old cmd.exe it does not support UNC paths. Starting the executable from a network-path results into redirecting the work dir to the default windows directory.
Too bad you can't even see any output streams (Standard Out, Standard Error) because the batch goes back to menu and clears the screen. At least it would be a good idea to redirect all output to a logfile (>> backup.log or just errors 2> errors.log) so you can read messages like
Code:
adb: unable to connect for backup

that's what I told, you can't see any output. just copy the batch-source (hxxp://pastebin.com/pCHm38Ry - link from first post) into a new bat file (e.g. UBT.bat) and put a pause before the cls.

That's just a cheap workaround but you can see the messages - use this: hxxp://pastebin.com/Xrwy7Ct3

BTW: it's ridiculous that I am not allowed to post a link to pastebin because I don't have 10 posts... does xda want me to spam 9 posts now?

    With this tool, you can completely backup your device without root or unlocked bootloader.
    I have tested it so far only with my Galaxy Nexus, but it should also work with other devices running Android 4.0+.
    So you can unlock your bootloader without losing your data.
    With version 1.1, not all parts of the program will be downloaded, only the necessary.
    The most tools in the "Tools" section are for the Galaxy Nexus, but more devices will follow soon.
    Now the final release of v2 is out!
    The UI is complete, it's much easier to use.

    I have fixed the problem.
    The compiler has built crap.
    And yes, it requires a ADB connection

    Sorry can't give simple instructions because my pc got ****ed up again -.-
    Use the youtube tutorial with v1.3.2 if you really don't know how to use it.
    I stopped development on this and Marijsoft clearly failed the campaign for v3 so I think there will be no v3 :(
    This tool started a wave of programms (e.g. Helium etc.) that were so much easier to use than this, yeah awesome but not for us because nobody is interested in this because we were to slow to develop a good looking and easy UI :(
    I think it's dead now, it was my first project here, it looks like the next one will be an android app..

    As that this project seems to be dead and there income generation links in the op I think it is best we just close this thread down

    @vitors and flomtidreio: It SHOULD be no problem as long as you haven't made a Backup from system apps.

    Malware?

    The "Ultimate Backup Tool" referenced above comes bundled with a program called "Conduit" which has been reported as malware. Conduit installs itself in your browsers as the default search and blocks you from re-setting your previous default. Then it apparently shares your information all over the place. As a result, I declined to install the Ultimate Backup Tool even though I had the option of un-bundling Conduit. My trust was shot . . . . -Anonymous
