cannot backup https://f-droid.org/packages/dk.jens.backup/ #176

Open tomjones4 opened 7 years ago

tomjones4 commented 7 years ago

I installed https://f-droid.org/packages/dk.jens.backup/ and https://f-droid.org/packages/ru.meefik.busybox/. I do not have root access. In oandbackup, I changed busybox to point to /data/data/ru.meefik.busybox/files/bin/busybox. However when I try to backup an app (say Firefox), in /sdcard/oandbackups/ I get a folder called org.mozilla.firefox and in that a file called called org.mozilla.firefox.log with properties inside.

That busybox wont help you. Oandbackup simply can't run it. You should install the Busybox Installer for that. But think twice before you do. BTW it might be that you simply need to write "toybox" there if you have it

Is "Busybox Installer" on F-Droid?

But think twice before you do.

Why think twice?

I am running Android 5, so no "toybox".

Do you know is it possible for any app to backup other app's data in /data/data/ without root?
