Titanium Back Ups

[dynomot]

I know saving a TB to the PC and reusing it later if required is fine on the same phone and ROM (I've done it with a different ROM from the one the TB was made with no problems as well, but I know it can cause issues.

Now after submitting my SGSII to a slow death by dropping it in water over a month ago, the lovely Vodafone retentions dept. have let me upgrade much earlier, start a new contract with the same number and waived the three months left to run on it. So a SGSIII is arriving Tuesday . Shows what persistence and paying your bill regularly by DD can get you, if you whine enough (pride V a shiny new phone=no contest)!

I suppose I'd cause myself more grief than it's worth using an SGSII TB on an SGSIII, but has any one tried ?

I think my son (and, erhem, yes his Dad !) would hate losing all his progress on "Cut the Rope", "Angry Birds" and "Pudding Monsters". If I can't restore it and have to redownload from the Play store.

Thanks kelis, that looks like a solution.

You'll be able to use the tb from your s2. Just make sure you only reinstall downloaded apps/data and not any system apps or data.

Thanks Shotgun84.

While very happy to be having an upgrade three months early, I'm more than a little sad to see my SGSII slowly die on me. Out of all the phones I've ever owned it and a Nokia N95-1 easily provided me with "wow" factor and neither of them ever disappointed me.

Yeah I was a little sad to see my gs2 go. You won't be disappointed by the s3 though.
