Broken phone

[Guest bbawden]

Oops. I broke my phone. It just slipped out of my hand (see below)

The touchscreen doesn't work, but I have rebooted into recovery and done a backup. When my replacement arrives, I can just root it, then copy the backup over and do a restore, right? Any issues with that?

Can someone please advise where the backup file is stored, so I can pull it from adb (this is the biggest problem with no removable storage!)

Thanks

I guess its at

/mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup/2013-04-23.19.28.27/

hope this helps

You can use adb command to copy the backup to your laptop.

You have already know about adb...

Hi

Thanks all, sorry for not replying sooner.

I got the backup off OK. I then had a problem where some permissions would not let me copy the backup onto the sdcard on my replacement phone.

I decided that in any case I would flash the CWM version of MCR, and as I already have automatic backups of my apps and data, it was easy to restore my Angry Birds progress! (and SMS)

So it's all good, and I think I prefer the CWM version anyway.
