Whats the best way to upgrade (advice needed on backup etc)

[Guest munkifisht]

Hi there, I finally got a ROM going on my phone, but I have some questions on what the best way to upgrade is. Is there a decent program for listing and then installing my old apps, texts, settings etc.

I use Titanium Backup to keep track of all my apps (+ backup and restore).

For contacts/emails/calendars I rely on gmail.

for sms... well... I didn't bother too much... but there are apps to backup sms I think.

Use you google account to back up all your contacts and calendar

use this sms-backup to back up sms

and you can use appbrian to keep track and back up your apps and is quite useful i find

i didnt like titanium back up for me it just caused lots of force closes and made every thing run a bit sluggish

I used to use the free version of the Titanium Backup, then switched to the paid version (can't remember why). and I found the paid version to work much faster and much better. Also, Titanium backup was updated very frequently, so maybe the version you were using was buggy?

But anyawy, I tried to use appbrain yesterday, and it is pretty good. It shows you what you have installed, how much you have spent, and how much space you have used. The only complaint I have - when you try to install application(s). You will need to click on "Install" then "OK" (or continue?) on the permission window for every single app!!! So, if you reset your phone and wanting to get all your apps installed, good luck!! (i tried it...)
