Default What's the best way to backup and restore from EVO 4G to EVO 3D?

I'm sure google will do its part but it only restores my contacts, calender, & gmail I believe. I usually use Titanium Backup to restore my apps+settings but it will not work since my 3D won't be rooted.

What's the best non rooted app that will backup and restore my apps+settings from my EVO to the EVO 3D?
Evo LTE

Lets first think about rooting before moving the rooted files over lol.

waiting patiently for root to occur first.. then, load up all the apps and data FRESH.

U want a clean install, not a move.

yeah, guess you're right. forgot quite a few of my apps only work if rooted. not just TB. so other than manually writing down what apps I have installed, whats best to use to reinstall my apps (without their settings)

Use Titanium Backup on the Evo to "send data" ( list of all your apps) to your email. open it on the 3D. As a little reminder when market borks.

+1, I was going to sat the same, it can restore apps, app data or both, also miscellaneous data like SMS, mms, Calender, music play lists, bookmarks...etc... It works great, rooted or not....

.........at 8 am today someone poisons the coffee....do not drink the coffee. More instructions will follow.

Cordially,
Future Dwight

AppBrain can help, you can create a list of apps and restore to your new phone.

Honestly, though, for a new install, the Android Market does a great job now of installing. Go to My Library (I believe) and you will have a list of your apps. Just click to install each one you want on your new phone. I found that if you queue up too many at once, you might get an error, but that was on my OG EVO, so it may have had to do with memory limitations more than the process. This doesn't give you a listing of currently installed, so if you have too many extra apps that you have removed from your previous phone, you might have a bit of sorting to do.

Iv e been playing with this method of reinstalling with my last few ROM changes and it works just about as well as TB or anything else (assuming you know what apps you're installing). I guess it's a little trickier if you have apps from different sources (Amazon, etc.)
