BackDrop Root Pro Key for Android
Ive got the pro version of this running on a Asus Transformer tf101. Ive tried it on numerous custom roms, but it just doesnt work. The auto restore zip thing wont ever flash, so backdrop has to be manually reinstalled. Then whenever i restore an app &/or its data the app no longer works. It just crashes, and has to be uninstalled and then re-installed. Sadly its completely useless to me. Real shame.
I used this app for a short time and it is decent and does work. Although, I felt it was slow and a pain to select which apps I wanted to back up which caused me to look again and I found titanium back up. It's not the titanium of the past. It's much better now, and fast. 574 apps backed up to sd in 6 min (sg3) This app is much easier to use though than tbu, it's just missing some of tbu features that I want. So it may be for you if you're looking for an easier interface. Good luck.
...but then when I tried to restore some backed up apps on a changed ROM it fails. I also miss some documentation especially for what the two buttons "Sync w/ Dropbox" within backup-dialogs and "Refresh" within restore-dialoges exactly are made for or what they are doing. Some emails to the developer asking the questions above are long time not answered yet. App's description say: "If you are having any issues, please let me know before giving BackDrop a low rating. I am actively working on updates." The last update was almost 1 year ago and the Dev. don't reply on emails. What a shame! Downgrade to 2 stars from initially 5 stars. Does anybody else know what the two buttons "Sync w/ dropbox" and "Refresh" are doing?
The only parts that work for me are the app restore and the WiFi setting restore. Things that did not work are data restore, text message restore, and Bluetooth restore. Hopefully a future update will get these functions working.
The app has not been updated in over a year. I purchased two of his apps. The other one has a beta version on play store. So I assume he is still working? Im getting a lot of errors now on 4.3..Im going to flash a kit kat rom soon. I doubt it will work on that. If your thinking about purchasing...I can not recommend it any longer. Andy, are you still around?
It restores misc fine all you need to do is reboot device to take effect. Don't need to for apps though not sure why.
But need improvements. Restoring data for app or misc not working on ICS! Just say "Restoring..." and nothing happened, service freezes... Please fix... And why key is always in background cached processes 3mb?!
Didn't restore sms/call logs - useless.
Enjoyed using this drppbox app so much I had to go pro. Thanks Andy
Everyone should try thus
When titanium backup is being a piece of s*** this is great! :D
An update would be nice. More stability and new look would be perfect.
Ffgg
First I thought it's a good app and I bought Pro.. ...but then when I tried to restore some backed up apps on a changed ROM it fails.

Good potential... But need improvements. Restoring data for app or misc not working on ICS! Just say "Restoring..." and nothing happened, service freezes... Please fix... And why key is always in background cached processes 3mb?!
