To the best of my knowledge, there exists no tool for obtaining a complete backup of an Android device that does not require rooting the device first. If such a tool exists that I don't know about, I'd also be interested to hear. Google's own backup is not 100% complete; it doesn't appear to back up Nova Launcher desktop settings for example. -- Phil Stracchino Fenian House Publishing [email protected] [email protected] Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958
