About 0 Backup Gold

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 0 Backup is currently deprecated. It still works, but no active development will be done (not even to follow Android versions). This page will remain available for current users, but we strongly suggest not to install it unless you know what you are doing. If you need the features of 0 Backup, you will probably like FolderSync, which provides almost all the features of 0 Backup and many more (although probably with a larger degree of complexity, since it does many more things).

0 Backup is backup solution for your Android device, allowing you to fully backup your external SD card to your own computer.

Think about it: your contacts and calendar are probably synchronized to your Gmail account, your mail corporate server or your MS Exchange corporate server, but what's about the data in your SD card? The documents you have created with Documents To Go, Quick Office or any other office suite; the passwords you keep within KeePassDroid; the photographs and videos of your family; the quick notes you take with your favorite notes editor; all of them and many others live in your SD card, so most of your data lives in your SD card. Back it up!

Other backup solutions say to make a backup of your phone, but if such backup is kept only on the SD card of your phone, it is still in risk of being lost or stolen. 0 Backup can help you back up also such data form the SD card to your own computer.

Other backup solutions store the backup on online storage servers, usually subject to a monthly fee. 0 Backup does the backup to your own computer, so no extra or hidden fees apply.

Features:

* Backup your SD to a shared folder in your computer whenever you want.
* Uses SMB/CIFS. No need to install specific software in your computer.
* Incremental backup, to save time.
* Exclusion list, to avoid wasting time and space in the computer with expendable data (music, emulator ROMs...)
* Schedulable automatic backup, to set-and-forget it (Gold only).
* Automatic turn WiFi on and off for scheduled backup (Gold only).
* Configurable to use only WiFi, to avoid wasting your expensive mobile data plan.
* Configurable to use only your own WiFi network, to skip backup when traveling or so (Gold only).
* Configurable to stop backup when not charging, to avoid wasting battery.
* Configurable to try to continue on errors.
* Configurable to remove previously backed-up item on server that has been removed on your SD card.
* No need for root.

Known problems:
* To avoid piracy, the folder .android_secure cannot be backup'd. It contains the applications that have been moved to the SD card (from Android 2.2 Froyo on), but not data nor configurations, so just reinstall them if you need it.
* Plain-text password in the SMB share are not supported.
    * Some users report that setting USB debugging on causes "access denied" in some devices.
* Some characters in the password (such as @ and other strange characters) are known to cause problems authenticating to the server.

This is a great app if you want a scheduled backup to home comp. Set up was easy with help from their guide. Doing nightly right to computer and nice feature to run only while on my ssid. Also no root needed is key if I'm not on a rooted phone. Well worth the price.

Backed up my Xoom and my Incredible...simple and awesome app.

C70%
by C####:

Like the app really easy to use and does what it says. The only problem is speed it takes about 16 hours to back my phone even after a sucessful backup. I have found another program that backs my phone in about 30 seconds and does full backup in about 6 hours.

I have a SMB share and this is the only app that doesn't connect to it.

Does exactly what I needed....preserve my precious sd card data! Add an instant access widget and it gets 5 stars. Great job dev!

I couldn't find any other App to just backup the SD Card... with Automatic Scheduling via WIFI. Once set up, you never have to worry about backing up your SD Card manually again. One Note... to set up a backup for every day, you have to set it for "Backup Every 0 Days", not Every 1 Day.

The website is down. No way I can figure this out without the manual. Can't find it online. Will request a refund.

B70%
by B####:

I was doing manual backup to my pc before I found this app. It was a chore with the USB cable & Windows Explorer and I was never sure that everything was really up to date. It's slow the first time you do a full backup, but incremental backups are fairly quick. Works without a hitch on my ASUS TF101 running Ice Cream Sandwich.

E70%
by E####:

Still have some scheduling issues (though manual backups had worked without any problems), but 5 stars anyway, for their excellent support and dynamic development/response to problems.

Latest version makes this app 5 stars IMO. You can now be more specific with excluded folders by drilling down into sub-folders - that was the only thing I did not like with previous version. EXCELLENT JOB, AND TY to the dev. Well worth buying!!

Does what it says it will, and does it well.

Excellent application and very prompt and efficient customer service.

You never think about your SD card getting corrupted but it can happen. If it does you could lose all kinds of data and your device just won't be the same, there is a lot of data stored on there! You have to be able to recover your SD cards contents to get back to where you were before the corruption. This allows you to backup to a folder on your PC over wireless every night! Awesome. I have nothing to do with this program except being a fan of backups!
