Changing Roms

[claytoncamilleri100]

Hi all,

When I visit XDA I always notice a new ROM for the moto g4 plus. I immediately wanted to try them but whenever I install a ROM I will lose all the data. Sometimes I try to dirtly flash the ROM but I doesn't work most of the time. My question is how can I backup most of my data so I can use it on the new ROM?

There is 3rd option for backup in TWRP, It will Backup your current ROM and Installed apps and their data only, but not your photos/videos or any personal data....
And now read this carefully - if you are wiping partitions read their name before wiping, dont wipe internal memory, external memory or OTG... Wiping them will erase everything on your phone or pendrive(if connected), wipe only those partitions whose backup you have made ( delvik-cache, cache, data, system )
Note again- don't wipe SDcard partitions, it will erase your personal data....
For safety it's better to copy your personal data to PC or Computer....

I hope you read my ENGLISH carefully.....

But I still wouldn't have the apps installed right?

Yes...
If you wipe DATA and install ROM then you will have to install all apps again... But when you restore Backed ROM then everything will be same as when you backed that...

You can save your app and data with titanium backup, it can help too.

What I do is
Backup ur apps using titanium backup
Now flash a new ROM , wiping cache , dalvic cache, system, data..
Now restore all ur apps using titanium backup pro ( crack titanium backup using lucky patcher)
Why I m saying to use pro version because you don't need to tap install on every app, it automatically installs WITH DATA ..it also doesn't take much time..
So finally you have ur apps with data !
Note : don't wipe internal storage while flashing new ROM ..so ur media files will not be lost
Hope this helps!

No, just install lucky patcher with BusyBox ..
Than apply custom patch for titanium backup ..
No need to buy pro !
