It turned out that call log backup is already in AOSP, but it is disabled by an undocumented flag. This commit sets this flag (for new and existing installs) to enable call log backup. |

Seedvault
A backup application for the Android Open Source Project.
Features
- Backup application data to a flash drive.
- Restore application data from a flash drive.
- User-friendly encryption using a mnemonic phrase (BIP39).
- Automatic daily backups that run in the background.
Requirements
- Android 10
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
which is deprecated and thus needs a replacement.
