[Q] How to backup wifi passwords/settings with Titanium Backup?

[Nutzzer]

All,

I've been going through Titanium Backup Pro list of apps and can't find what I need to do to backup/restore my Wifi settings when I switch out roms.

Also, if anyone knows, if I wanna backup the default email 4.1 app for exchange, do I just backup the email 4.1 and exchange 4.1 settings?


Thanks for any info!

You should NEVER back up default/system apps.

Your wifi settings are backed up to your Google account.

joshnichols189,

Understood, but during a Rom flash, I restore apps via Titanium backup and stopped restoring from Google Account.
I never restore system apps, but would like to restore Wifi Settings and Exchange email via the Email 4.1 app.

When you log into your Google account it restores your WiFi passwords. I don't think you can restore the exchange email via the email app as you shouldn't restore system app data either :/

Schiehallion,

I have the PRO version and don't see where I can backup Wireless Access Points. Can you point me to the right direction?

its a green item listed as "[SMS/MMS/APN] Phone...".

If you make a label and tag that setting, you can make a schedule so you could back up your messages and APN settings weekly (or however often you would need to).

I finally found it listed as "Wi-Fi Access Points" in Titanium Backup Pro.

You don't even have to back up wifi in Titanium Backup.

My wifi access point and password, wallpaper, all restore from Google's server via their backup option.

That sucks because all of mine are always restored over all of the devices I've ever had..

Same for me. Even when I change phones it restores wifi during the first sign in screen upon setup.

Could you please explain why?

I have been exploring different ROMs, and my main email is iCloud IMAP asccount that needs manual setup each time, so I would like a way to restore email accounts only.

Let's say you backup a ICS system app, then you restore it in a Jellybean rom, things could break.

OR

You backup a stock Phone.apk, then you restore it in a cyanogenmod 10 rom, It will not work for obvious reasons.
