Best app for backup of apps, desktop, etc

[cfclay]

I buy and sell phones to try the new stuff and previously had been strictly with iOS. I'm just now getting in the game with Android again, and was wondering what app is most similar to an iCloud or iTunes backup?

I see some things on the internet, but they are a little dated. It looks like Helium back-up is a good choice?

My contacts are all stored with Google or Microsoft Exchange at work, my photos are stored with Google or Dropbox. Text messages I don't care too much about, nor call history.

I just want the hundred or so apps that I have downloaded to download again and also to be placed on the home page in the same folder that I had before.

Thanks for any suggestions or help.

Are you rooted? If yes try to buy titanium backup pro. Definitely worth the penny.

titanium is the best for rooted devices, however it does not arrange icons in folders like you mentioned

I don't see any other option even closer to Titanium.
You need to learn about titanium how and what to do and what not to do.
I have some app +contacts +messages carry forwarded since samsung galaxy s (my first Android) to Note 1- 2-3-4 and currently on N5
See here a message I received on 2011 and still now on my device
Thanks to Titanium
