How to Backup Android App Data Without Root | Guiding Tech

While backing up APKs from an Android, the data is not backed up along with it. For rooted phones, we got Titanium backup to backup app along with its data to be able to restore it on any device. However the app’s not compatible with non-rooted device.
Helium - App Sync and Backup is an easy to use alternative using which you can back up most of the apps along with its data. The app is free to use and the results are promising.

Thank You Sir! Very Helpful :) but I have one question, um If you factory reset your device ; will you get the apps data to be saved on the PC? Please reply me asap. Thank you again

[@bucky1382]

you should probably move the backup from your internal device to your SD card, i think it's in the carbon folder inside your phone.

I tried helium but I get "An error occured while performing app backup. error is : Desktop Backup Password.

[@AlamgirHossainShemul]

Same problem here. How did you solve that?

[@Vish_TheTechGuy]

Same problem happened with me any one has solution?

Found solution. You need to allow "USB debugging (security settings)" option, in case of my xiaomi

[@tired5379]

My old phone doesnt recongize my sd card in helium and all the other options require helium premium...

[@Lil_HandGrenade]

Helium does not allow you to restore your data unless you pay for the premium version. So what is the point in that if you cant buy premium?

[@evocre8r]

Great video and worked just as you said, THANKS!!! But one question...If it backs up to my SD, what is the computer used for?

[@GuidingTechEnglish]

+evocre8r It will grant Helium the option to backup and restore app data using ADB commands which otherwise would require root access.

[@evocre8r]

+Guiding Tech Ok Thanks! Am I able to connect my note 4 to my PC and make a back up straight to my PC using Helium?

[@pankaj452]

Dear Ashish, I used helium for taking a backup of Games Data on internal memory of the old phone, then I tried updating the same on new phone by copying the carbon folder to new phone memory. The restore process started, but the data could not be restored as the backup screen popped up and remained there for some time, later an error message popped up and the process got aborted. The process was repeated several times but the result remained same. Can you help?

[@drvinayakpatil]

WhatsApp back up not allowed with helium

[@IbzJaay19]

How can you save back up onto sd card instead of internal memory because if i save it onto internal memory and i reset my phone all the backups will also be deleted

[@allhaillelouchvibritannia7494]

EJ remove the sd card first

[@KnockOffToyz]

Once you do all that back and restore on your phone as you did in this video.... how do you then transfer that game and data from your phone to another phone that has the same FREE Hellium installed? This is what I can't understand.

[@souravkarnany7216]

same

[@xsn1per470]

In your internal storage there is a folder called "carbon" move that folder to your second phone.. And you'll get all your backups in the second phone

[@bhaumiktaral9803]

Not sure. You can use Kies for that/

[@brianserrano4895]

How do the backed up app data get to the pc

[@ultopoth]

you can use a file manager and locate the backup files to transfer to any location of your choice.

[@davidxrod]

I'm confused. How were you able to fully restore 'speed test' in the video if you only backed up the app data and not the apk along with its app data?

[@Majhailx47]

It's been 4 yrs

[@Majhailx47]

If u still didn't got it

[@Majhailx47]

Ok try copy the app data from filemanager and android folder and copy to another folder and uninstall the app and reinstall it and then again copy data from that section to original in android and u will see app works like old with same data

I installed an apk then I play it then backup it then uninstall it then download the modded apk then restore it. Can I do that?

[@ultopoth]

you can backup any app. The restoration certainly works for the same app. Restoring game saves for the same game but modded version may or may not work - just try and find out.

What if it not work? Then I loss all my data.

This Helium must of work good in the past. Seen post from 2013 in their app. google store. 2021 Android 11 didn't work shows error and sends error to developer. It seems no updates seen since 2019 and no responses. I tried the back up and restore in my android 6.0 and worked fine as of today. Hopefully they will update someday the app. According to posts. This app worked in non-rooted phones. Which seem to work in my android 6.0. Haven't found anything that might be able to back up my games app data for my new device in android 11 operating software march 2021. Great video.

[@ishaanrajora1853]

what if a person needs to factory reset

[@alexdiezg]

i think you can move the backed up data files to you pc, factory reset you phone and bring the files back again

[@vnrnrn7113]

You need Share it or other back up apps in order to send the file

[@ishaanrajora1853]

thanks

[@ahmedhamido1986]

where i can find the data files ?? the path of saving folder?

[@KedarNath007]

Dear Bro... It was awesome. Mind blowing and I watched most of your videos. Bro, I want to know about one thing that I have the cable internet connection. That is direct LAN connection in my laptop. And monthly I am paying 1000 Rs to the cable operator for the internet. The thing is I don't want to pay every month. Is there any way that you can use your technical mind for not paying the monthly payment and I can use the internet freely? If it is so plz make a video on that. Plz bro I know you can do it.....Plz plz plz... Thank you.

[@mohamedemeara7922]

[@jittu_1014]

No PC pls!!!

[@acars9999]

+Guiding Tech - First off, I could never get this app to work. I went through all the steps - download chrome extension, enable USB Debug, plug the phone in to the computer, enable PTP. But the app continues telling me I need to enable PTP mode, so I check YET AGAIN and it is enabled. Never get past that screen, and it never connects to the PC. Then the app closes. Also, it appears to me that my phone reverts to MTP mode every time it reboots - which is often lately. I thought this would only prevent backing up to the computer, which I didn't intend to do very often anyway. I intended to backup to Dropbox or Box, and the SD card, most of the time. But... something you said in the video blows me away. It sounds like you said that every time you REBOOT your phone, you have to go through that exercise of connecting the phone to to the computer. Did you really mean REBOOT? Or RESET? If it is really that every time you REBOOT you must connect the phone to the computer, to even get the app to work, then this app is USELESS. As janky as Samsung software is, I reboot my phone at least once a week. More recently, it reboots by itself sometimes every day. If I would have to connect the phone to the computer every day, just so it would "automatically" backup, then this app is completely unsuitable.

[@GuidingTechEnglish]

Hi Eric. I understand that the initial configuration of the app is challenging and also the process is mandatory every time you REBOOT YOUR PHONE. The reason is that these kind of hacks work seamlessly on rooted device, however the developer has managed to make it work on non-rooted phones with some constraints in place.

[@acars9999]

+Guiding Tech - Thank you for your reply. And I forgot to say it in my first message, but thank you for this video. Even though the video served to prove the app is not for me, it still was a service to me. That was one less app I had to try. I have used MyBackup for over a year, and it worked reliably without root until recently. I realize with root you can back up way more stuff. By MyBackup would backup everything I wanted to backup. Recently it has been 'forgetting' about the SD card, and not backing up. Also the cloud backup would run but report it couldn't upload the file. So I am looking for a new solution. Right now I am trying G Cloud, and very initially it looks positive. It is has a nice UI, and seems to back up everything I want.
