'adb backup' can't be used with any app that declare allowBackup=false which alas is a bit too many apps for it to be usable as a backup solution. At least that was my conclusion when I looked into backup options. I have been using 'oandbackup' to perform batch backups to the SD card. Then I can use oandbackup to restore relevant apps later on. /Simon
