Hi, Sorry, I haven't used the BackUp Manager, but I perused the documentation page you referenced.
To invoke the Backup Manager from your phone, I would try using the 2 command approach - "adb shell bmgr backup *your.package.name*" - adb shell bmgr run If you application isn't queuing up back up images by calling dataChanged(), the "adb shell bmgr backup *your.package.name" *forces an image. Perhaps the error message is* *misleading?* * What command are using to re-install your app. I use "./adb install -r <path to my apk>" . The "r" switch indicates re-install. I also maintain private data files and they definitely survive a re-install (on my phone). Hope that helps.
