Grant MANAGE_USB permission, so we can get USB serial numbers
This is needed to reliably identify USB mass storage devices.
If someone has several identical thumb drives,
this prevents a backup from being performed when non-backup drives get attached.

Backup

Build Status

A backup application for the Android Open Source Project.

Features

  • Backup application data to a zip file.
  • Restore application data from a zip file.
  • Password-based encryption.

Getting Started

  • Check out the wiki for information on building the application with AOSP.

What makes this different?

This application is compiled with the operating system and does not require a rooted device for use. It uses the same internal APIs as adb backup and only requires the permission android.permission.BACKUP for this.

Contributing

Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at https://github.com/stevesoltys/backup.

Permissions

  • android.permission.BACKUP to be allowed to back up apps
  • android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED to schedule automatic backups after boot
