I'm attempting to backup my old Android device, a Samsung Galaxy S3, so that I can lend it to my friend while his is away at repairs, then restore it when he's done with it.
I have the Samsung USB drivers installed, and the device is recognised.
C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>adb devicesList of devices attached4df7f9574edecf7f device
I set a developer password, as per this post, which caused the "Backup starting..." to last about 3 seconds longer than before. It completes successfully, then produces a file that is 1kb.
C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>adb backup -all -f D:\backup.abNow unlock your device and confirm the backup operation.C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>
Does anybody know what's going on?
Thanks in advance.
