Torsten Grote a425ae706e Show percentages in progress notification and x of n status at the end 
Fine-grained progress reporting causes apps to show up twice which is
confusing. Also @pm@ metadata and opt-out APKs are too much detail for
normal users. So we decided to only show a percentage in the progress
notification.

When the backup finished, the app now shows "x of n apps backed up"
which is more positive when the previous negative message of how many
apps were not backed up.

Some further minor tweets were done to app counting to report proper
totals.

README.md

Seedvault

Build Status

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.

Permissions

  • android.permission.BACKUP to back up application data.
  • android.permission.MANAGE_DOCUMENTS to retrieve the available storage roots.
  • android.permission.MANAGE_USB to access the serial number of USB mass storage devices.
  • android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS to change system backup settings.
  • android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES to re-install apps when restoring from backup.
