How to back up an Android phone?

  • I know there are a couple of apps which back up the whole android phone. it takes much longer time and storage in this case. How to perform a partial back up, for example only for contacts or sms backup?


    Any tools capable of doing that?

  • Thanks for the suggestion. I used Titanium before and i want to a difference solution to only back up a few items, not the whole device.

  • You can exactly do that with Titanium Backup. Just choose the apps and settings you want to backup.

    I don't recommend using Tianium backup because if works very slowly when backing up large files, it's only a app running on your phone, I suggest to try Samsung kies, it works fast and is a desktop program, but Samsung kies doesn't back up your messages or call history, if you want to backup Android messages, I suggest you try Android manager tool to transfer messages from Android to computer.
