With the release of Android 6.0 Marshmallow, a truly necessary feature became available to users - automatic backup of user application data to the Google Drive service. But at least Google took care of users by adding this opportunity, not all developers are in a particular hurry to update their products and add a similar function to them. So after changing the device or resetting to factory settings, you have to play through the games again, change program settings to your taste, etc. Of course, having root rights on the device can help you out of such a situation. But what if it is not possible to get them? In addition, to do this you will often need to unlock the bootloader, which automatically leads to the loss of all information on the device. In this case, ADB comes to the rescue.

Few Android device users know that backing up all installed applications and their data can be done without additional manipulations with their device. And in today’s article we will tell you how to make a backup of the entire system, without unlocking the bootloader and obtaining superuser rights.

How to backup all information on your device

In order not to bother yourself and save all the accumulated photos, music, videos yourself, this method will be an excellent choice. And here's what you need:

  1. Create a folder named Android in the root of the C:\ drive.
  2. Install USB drivers for your device (you can find links to universal drivers for some devices).
  3. In some cases, installing drivers will require you to disable authentication.
    • For Windows 7:
      When you turn on the computer, after BIOS boot, you must press the F8 key. In the menu that appears " Additional options Download" select "Disable mandatory driver signature". This method may not work the first time, so you should repeat the action or open a command prompt as an administrator and enter two commands:
      "bcdedit.exe /set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS";
      "bcdedit.exe /set TESTSIGNING ON."
    • For Windows 8:
      You need to press the Win+I key combination, hold down the Shift key and select “Shutdown” > “Restart”. When you turn on your computer, select Diagnostics > Extra options» > Boot Options > Restart. When loading, select the “Disable mandatory driver signature verification” mode by pressing the F7 key.
    • For Windows 10:
      You must hold down the Shift key and select the Start menu > Shutdown > Restart. After booting, select Troubleshooting > Advanced Options > Boot Options > Restart. Then select “Disable mandatory driver signature verification” by pressing F7.
  4. Download the archive and unpack the files into Android folder.
  5. Activate the “USB Debugging” item on your smartphone.
    This can be done in the “For Developers” section. If this section is hidden, instructions will help you open it.
  6. Change the duration of the standby mode.
    To do this, in the screen settings you need to select the “Sleep mode” item and set the switch to the maximum possible time.
  7. Connect your phone to your computer via a USB cable.
    It is recommended to use the original or cable good quality, and USB port 2.0, located on motherboard(for PC).
  8. Change the connection type from “Charging only” to “File transfer (MTP)”.
    This is not required on every device, but many manufacturers require it as a security measure before allowing ADB to work.
  9. Open a command line and go to the created Android folder with the command “cd c:\Android\” (commands are written without quotes).
  10. Make sure that the computer finds the device via ADB.
    To do this, you need to enter “adb devices” into the command line. When a request appears on the phone for permission to debug via ADB on this computer You must click “Ok” and select “Always allow from this computer.” If the device is visible, the text “List of devices attached” and a list of all devices (for example, xxxxxxx device) will be displayed. If instead of “device” it says “offline” or the list is empty, then you need to update ADB, check the drivers/cord, change the USB port/computer.
  11. IN command line enter “adb backup -apk -shared -all -f path/to/backup.ab”, where path/to/backup.ab is the path to the directory and the name of the backup file.

The operation may take quite a long time, everything will depend on the amount of information on the smartphone.

How to Backup Only App Data

Unfortunately, like everything in this life, the previous method is not ideal. Not all data can always be saved correctly. It is recommended to manually save media files and documents to your PC or to the cloud, and then start backing up user application data. To do this, you will need to follow steps 1 to 10 and then enter “adb backup -apk -all -f path/to/backup.ab” in the command line, where path/to/backup.ab is the path to the directory and backup file name. After that, on your smartphone, enter a password to protect the backup copy and click the “Back up data” button in the lower right corner.

How to back up some apps

If you do not need to back up all programs installed on the device and it is enough to save the data of some applications, then you will need the following:

  1. Follow steps 1 to 10 from the first method.
  2. Install the App Inspector application on your smartphone.
  3. Launch the App Inspector utility and select App List (Ordered by name). Find and select the application that you want to restrict from running in the background. The package name and version will be displayed below the program name.
  4. Enter the command “adb backup -f path/to/backup.ab -apk name.of.package”, where path/to/backup.ab is the path to the directory and the name of the backup file, and name.of.package is the name of the package , which was previously recognized in the App Inspector.
  5. A window will appear on your smartphone asking you to enter a password for additional protection backup. After entering it, you need to click the “Back up data” button in the lower right corner.

How to restore data from a backup

To restore data, you only need to enter “adb restore path/to/backup.ab” on the command line, where path/to/backup.ab is the path to the backup file and press Enter. On your smartphone, enter the password in the window that appears and click the “Recover data” button. After a certain time, depending on the file size, the phone will display “Recovery complete” in a pop-up window.

Additional Information

In addition to the above, I would like to supplement the article with several more commands and parameters that can help in certain situations.

Command format for creating a backup:

Adb backup [-f ] [-apk | -noapk] [-shared | -noshared] [-all] [-system | nosystem] [

The most simple command to create a backup:

adb backup -all

After entering this command, a backup copy of only the data of all applications (without APK files) will be created in the current directory with the name backup.ab.

If after running this command an error occurs (something like “adb: cannot open file ./backup.ab”) you need to enter the following:

Adb backup -all -f C:\backup.ab

In this case, the backup file will be created in the root directory of the C:\ drive. Instead of C:\backup.ab, you can specify any necessary address and file name.

Here is a description of some of the options you can use when creating a backup:

F

This parameter is used to indicate the path and name of the backup file. For example, "-f C:\Backup\mybackup.ab" points to the Backup folder located on drive C. The backup name is mybackup.ab.

Apk | -noapk

This flag indicates whether the application's APK files should be included in the backup or only the corresponding data. It is recommended to use "-apk" when the application is not available in Google Play or used more old version than on the Market. The default is "-noapk".

Shared | -noshared

This flag is used to enable/disable Reserve copy content internal memory/device SD card. The default is "noshared". It is recommended not to back up the internal memory in this way, but to manually save everything necessary files, because not all data can be saved/restored.

This flag is the easiest way to backup your entire system.

System | -nosystem

This setting determines whether system applications will be included in the backup. The default is "-system". It is recommended not to include system applications in the backup to avoid possible errors during future restoration.

Here you can specify the names of the packages (for example, com.google.android.apps.plus) that you want to save. Only used if you need to back up a specific application.

That's all. Write in the comments if it helped you this instruction and whether all information was saved correctly.

In the first case, you can copy important system files to some protected storage, while the utility can even save the entire operating system.

What is “Backup”, if you translate this name from English? The term comes from English word backup, which can be translated as “reserve”. However, it could just as easily mean something like “backup” or “backup.” Thus, this term refers to storing important information on a third-party medium.

By the way, our ancestors knew very well what backup is! True, they did not call this process that. Did you know that all manuscripts were rewritten? The fact is that in ancient times, enemies loved to burn libraries, and therefore storing all the books in one place and one copy would be simply stupid. Of course, various types of moneylenders have also mastered backup copying, storing lists of their debtors in several copies.


When to backup?

Returning to the topic of sayings and proverbs, we should once again remind you of the uselessness of drinking mineral water at a time when your kidneys are no longer working... Simply put, you need to save all your working documents constantly! Even if you don’t store something incredibly important on your computer, a configured and working OS without glitches is important information in itself.

Thus, before you decide to try something, it is advisable to make a backup copy of the system or important files that affect its performance.

It is easy to guess that before completely reinstalling the OS, it is advisable to transfer all your collections of films and music to a spare hard drive. today they work almost flawlessly, but it never hurts to play it safe in this matter.

Where can I save a backup?

Recording to an external drive


Check the boxes next to those items that need to be synchronized; for example, you can select only Contacts, or select all. Then you need to call the context menu and select “Synchronization”.


During synchronization, you will see round icons with an arrow. Once the data backup is complete, the icons will disappear. To check whether the synchronization was successful, just log in to your account on another tablet, first turn on Wi-Fi, and also complete all the steps described above. After this, all your contacts, etc. should appear on the new device.

Backup and recovery of SMS

If owners of tablets with SIM card support need to reset the data on the tablet to standard settings, or reflash the device, all SMS will be erased, since they are in the tablet’s memory. Sometimes you don’t want to lose SMS from a loved one, so the SMS Backup & Restore application comes to the rescue. We install it on the tablet on which we need to backup the SMS juice, and launch it.



Then you need to return to the main application window and select “Backup”. Next, you will be asked to select a name for the backup file, as well as select the dialogs that need to be backed up: those that you select, or all of them. Click “Ok” and wait for the reservation process to complete.


The backup copy will be saved in a file in .xml format in the location where you previously specified in the settings. Go to this folder through any file manager and make sure that a backup copy has been created.

Now let's try to restore SMS from a backup after flashing the tablet or resetting the settings. We install the same application, launch it, and click the “Restore” button. If the application cannot find backups, “help” him by specifying the path to the .xml file with the SMS backup in the settings, and then click “Restore” again.

Backup of system settings, applications, application data

  • Download the application, install it, and launch it.
  • Go to the menu (top right) and select “Settings”.


  • There we go to the item “Path to folder with r.k.”, and select where the backup copies will be saved. Preferably it should be a memory card

  • We wait for the process to complete, reboot the device, and voila - you have restored data from the backup!

note. This application is not suitable for backing up personal files such as music, photos, videos, documents. Use manual transfer of such data to a flash drive or to a computer from the tablet’s memory.

Question. This is all good, but I want to make a backup, and I don’t have a flash drive (there’s no microSD slot in the tablet). What to do?

Answer. It's simple - theoretically, you can connect a regular USB flash drive to the tablet via , and make a backup to it. And if you are a bit of a hacker, you can make a backup directly on your PC, you just have to carefully study this material.

Backup of the entire firmware (system snapshot) using Recovery

If you are going to take any serious actions with your tablet, for example, do a flashing or ROOT, it’s better to take a “snapshot” current state systems. At least, if you “kill” the tablet by flashing it, you can at least restore it to the original state of the system, preserving all the settings and software.

Creating a backup using the Recovery menu

  • Install ClockWorkMod Recovery on the tablet. Read on to see how this is done.
  • We charge the tablet battery to capacity so that the tablet does not turn off while creating a backup.
  • Make sure that a flash drive is installed in the tablet, and that there is enough free space on it to copy the entire Android system.
  • Go to the Recovery menu. To do this, turn off the tablet and simultaneously hold down a combination of physical keys on the tablet body. The combination may be different for each device, and may include simultaneous or sequential pressing of the volume +/- keys, the power button, and the back button, if available.
  • When you get to the Recovery menu, use the volume up/down keys to move through it to the “backup and restore” item. Using the power button, select this item.


  • Now select the “Backup” item - i.e. creating a backup copy.


  • We are waiting for the backup process to be created - this may take some time.
  • Reboot the device when the process is complete.

Restoring from a backup in Recovery

  • We install a flash drive with previously recorded recovery files into a fully charged tablet.
  • We go to the Recovery menu in the same way as described above, only instead of the “Backup” item, select “Restore”, i.e. recovery.
  • You will be asked to select the location where the system backup files were saved, and also select a recovery file.


  • After selecting the recovery file, the process of uploading your system snapshot to the tablet will begin. It is strictly not recommended to interrupt the backup restoration process! If everything completes successfully, a notification similar to this will appear with the words “Restore Complete!”


  • All that remains is to reboot the device by clicking “Reeboot system now”.


Question. There are no volume keys on my tablet. And how would you like to navigate through the Recovery menu?

Do they invest in this concept?

But today we will talk about the more prosaic and pressing problems of any smartphone owner: how to backup your phone book, files, calendar events, photos on your Meizu, Samsung, iPhone and tablet using 4 free servicesGoogle.

Features of backup on different platforms


Before we begin to analyze the tools for backing up your data, it is worth mentioning that there are some differences in backing up files for Android And iOS. Users of Apple devices are luckier, since their phones are capable of making backup copies to iCloud without installing third-party software. Here is a list of what can save your iPhone to the cloud automatically:

  • Photo
  • Notes
  • Contacts
  • Calendars
  • Reminders
  • Safari history and bookmarks
  • Smartphone system backup

This is very convenient and thoughtful, since you don’t need to do anything extra: just mark what you want to save and everything will be automatically uploaded to the cloud. But an obvious disadvantage of this method can be the fact that you are allocated free of charge for iCloud drive Total 5 GB, which is very little if you upload photos there, actively use notes, Keynote and Numbers, and also if you save email. Because if you work with large files or you have a huge photo library, then you either have to use other services or buy more space on iCloud.

That is why this article will be relevant for many users. iPhone who are not willing to pay for additional space or use multiple devices on different platforms.


Concerning Android users, then not everyone is lucky enough to have pre-installed Google services that help make backups, so some of them will have to be installed from the Play Market. Although, for example, calendars and contacts are already recorded in your account on almost every Android device by default.

But the clear advantage of backup services for Android is that they are, for the most part, cross-platform and do not tie you to one OS. But, unfortunately, this thesis is not always relevant for a backup copy of the phone in case of flashing it, and therefore the best way to backup the phone before flashing the firmware is to save all its data to a folder on the computer, since for Android there is no cloud storage of the firmware by default, like in iOS.

How to backup contacts (phone book) on Android and iOS smartphones


The first service that will help us solve the common problem of losing contacts when purchasing a new phone is called Google contacts. To start enjoying all the benefits of the service, you just need to have a Google account and check the necessary boxes on your phone. From now on, contacts will be backed up automatically on Android and iOS smartphones. Moreover, you will have access to them from your computer through the Contacts tab in Chrome.

More often, Samsung phones, HTC, LG, Lenovo and many other manufacturers make automatic backup of phone book contacts in Google contacts. Users of these smartphones simply need to enable synchronization and all their contacts will be automatically available on all devices after logging into Google account.

But if you have Meizu or Xiaomi, then you will have to spend some time setting up automatic saving of contacts not to the Flyme (Mi Cloud) account, but to the Google one we need. Below are instructions for finding such settings using Flyme 5 as an example.

  • Go to the “Phone” application
  • Open "Settings"

  • Select: “Manage contacts”

Also don't forget to check included Is it possible to synchronize contacts in your Google account?

  • Check the box next to “Contacts”

How to set up automatic contact backup on iOS

As I already wrote in the paragraph above, Apple products can automatically backup contacts, but if you just switched to iOS from Android or use several devices on different platforms, then it is likely that Google contacts- your option. Using this service, it will be easy for you not only to switch from one platform to another, but also not to lose contacts when servicing the device. In addition, Google Contacts interacts well with various email clients and makes it possible not to lose potential partners and work colleagues.

How to create a shared photo gallery on devices with different operating systems?


a lack of free space in a smartphone is one of the biggest problems of a modern person, after the lack of Internet and low battery. Today, our smartphones take pictures better and better, and if you have ever bought 16 GB a phone that can take pictures 4K, then you understand perfectly what regular cleaning is extra photos. And what can we say about how everything with theft or unsuccessful update the best photos go into oblivion. This is, to put it mildly, terrible, but fortunately there are several solutions to this:

  • Save everything to the cloud (Google Drive, iCloud Drive, Dropbox)
  • Upload photos to Flickr (2 TB free)
  • Use Google Photos (15 GB of space or unlimited)

The disadvantage of the first method is the limited space on the cloud disk: 15 GB – Google, 5 GB – iCloud, 5-15 GB – Dropbox. And if you shoot in good resolution, and also like to shoot video, then you won’t have enough space on more than one cloud.

Google Drive has 15 GB of free space, which is more than enough to store documents. But main valueGoogle Drive it's not just a file backup, it's built-in free office : Google Sheets, Docs, Slides and a huge number of different services and virtual machines , which can be downloaded for free in the official Chrome online store. So, for example, you can edit the code and view it directly on disk, without being tied to paid software or a computer. You can also listen to and convert music, edit photos and much more completely free of charge.


Besides Google app The drive is available in the browser, on Android and iOS, so you will have access to your files from absolutely any device.

If you need to backup your files, I would recommend Google Drive, because thanks to additional utilities, the service can cope with almost any task related to editing, reading or converting files.

Universal public calendar


Google calendar another service that will help you backup your smartphone. Thanks to its simplicity, Google Calendar is suitable for absolutely everyone: from a schoolchild to a serious manager. In addition, Google calendar is integrated into almost any email program, which is very convenient to use.
The principle of storing events in Google calendar is the same on both iOS and Android:

  • Create an event on the calendar
  • The created event will be visible on all your other devices. By saving all the dates in the calendar in this way, you will never forget someone's birthday and can easily return everything in case service phone.

    But let me remind you what you need initially login to gmail account on your smartphone.
