• Transfer data from old phone to new one. How to transfer data from phone to phone

    Have you purchased a new Android device? Well, congratulations. Most likely, you will now want to transfer data and files from your old device to it. In principle, with music and video, no problems usually arise, since they can be easily transferred to a new “place of residence” simply by moving the SD card. Problems usually appear when there is a question about transferring other information, or rather contacts and installed applications, since in this case simply rearranging the memory card will not solve the issue.

    With the help of Google tools, third-party apps, and persistence, a user can make the transition to a new device as easy as possible. Of course, you will have to work a little, but this article will give you good practice for backing up your data, which can come in handy in case of an accident with your smartphone. Or, more likely, it will come in handy when buying a new smartphone.

    First of all, let's talk about the most important thing - transferring contacts. Unlike old-style smartphones, for example, those that ran on Symbian OS, on Android everything is much simpler with the transfer of user data.

    Previously, smartphone users, before transferring files, first copied all the data to the computer, using special utilities for this. Now there is no need for this, since the accessible mobile Internet allows you to synchronize all the contact information of the user of an Android device, linking them to a Google account.

    Option one - Using the Internet and your Google account

    All you need to do is register a Google account and log in from your device, on which it should be enabled in the settings "Backup" And "Automatic recovery". After this, all contacts from the phone book will be automatically added to your account. If you log into your account from another device, for example, a new one, the previously saved contacts in your account will be copied to the phone book. Convenient and simple.

    Option two - Export to memory card

    If you are one of those users for whom the Internet is currently unavailable for some reason, or you simply want to transfer contacts manually, then you need to export them. This method is only relevant if both devices have a memory card slot.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Open the Contacts app on your Android device.
    2. Go to the settings menu and find the item "Export contacts" or similar.
    3. Export your contacts to a separate file and save it to your SD card.
    4. Move the SD card to the device to which you want to transfer contact data.
    5. Go to the Contacts app on your device to transfer.
    6. In the application settings, find the item "Import contacts" or similar.
    7. Import contacts from the memory card to the phone's internal memory by specifying the path to the file with the exported contacts.

    Transferring information from different Android devices

    How to transfer data from Android to Android? In addition to contacts, the smartphone’s memory contains other useful information that the user may need on a new gadget. Unfortunately, not all information is synchronized on Google servers, so to transfer it, you need to use additional tools.

    Fortunately, Android smartphone manufacturers are not sitting idly by and are developing special software designed to easily and quickly copy data from the memory of one device to the memory of another.

    HTC

    Owners of HTC smartphones have access to an excellent utility – “Transfer Tool”, thanks to which you can quickly and easily transfer notes, calendar schedules and other important information from one device to another. To transfer data, this application uses a wireless protocol called “Wi-Fi Direct”.

    Even a beginner can understand the application. You can install the application on any Android device, but you can transfer data only to smartphones and tablets from HTC. The application does not support the very first versions of Android. To run it you will need operating system version 2.3 or higher.

    Motorola

    Especially for users of Motorola smartphones, company specialists have created a software tool called “Motorola Migrate”. The application is available for the Android operating system version 4.1 and higher.

    The application allows you to transfer data from any Android devices running operating system version 2.2 and higher. It is noteworthy that the oldest models are also partially supported, but portability is somewhat limited. For example, on some devices, only contacts can be transferred.

    Samsung

    Owners of Samsung smartphones can use a special utility “Smart Switch” to transfer information. The utility is capable of transferring contacts, notes, calendars, photos, videos and much more.

    Any Android device running version 4.0 and higher can be used as a migration source.

    LG

    For LG devices, a special application has been developed “LG Backup”, which can export almost any type of user data. The only thing that may upset many is the limited support, since data can be transferred using this utility only if the device used for migration is running Android JellyBean.

    Sony

    Perhaps one of the best applications for backup and data transfer is “Xperia Transfer Mobile”, which allows owners of Sony smartphones to easily exchange data between a variety of devices. Almost all smartphones and tablets are supported.

    Backup as a transfer method

    First, make sure that you are signed in to your Google account on your Android smartphone. Open “Settings” and go to the section (this section may have different names on different models).

    Make sure your settings are enabled and "Auto-recovery", and that the smartphone is associated with a Google account.

    These settings ensure that application data, Wi-Fi passwords and smartphone settings are transferred to Google servers. They will be available to you when you log into your account on your new smartphone. Thanks to this, you will not have to re-enter network passwords that you have already saved. Of course, Google will know all your Wi-Fi passwords, but this is unlikely to scare anyone very much.

    If you have a Samsung device, you can use the Data Backup option in your Samsung account. Text messages, phone logs, contacts, email accounts that you used in Samsung applications will be saved here. You can make choices: for example, choose a Google account to sync contacts, mail and photos, but at the same time save text and call records to your Samsung account, since Google does not have this option.

    Advanced settings

    Having dealt with backup recovery, you need to pay attention to another application “Settings”. On your smartphone, you'll find an app called Google Settings (if it's running Android Marshmallow (6.0), this will be another section in the standard Settings app). Here you can manage various services connected to your Google account. There's a lot more to it than just backing up data, but that's what we'll focus on in this case.

    To get started, select Smart Lock for passwords. Here passwords from supported applications and sites are saved to your Google account. Thus, if you log in through the Chrome browser on a new smartphone, you will not have to re-enter the password for the site. This also works with some third-party applications, if their developers took care of this. There are currently few such applications, so it is better to trust password managers. You can choose between Dashlane, LastPass, 1Password.

    Another important aspect is Google Photos backup. All the photos and videos you take will be sent to the Google Photos service. The user gets unlimited storage, but will have to endure content compression. Also, any content can be stored in the Google Drive cloud, where 15 GB is given to start.

    Transferring SMS and MMS messages

    Transferring text messages is usually the most difficult and fickle process. The best transfer option is the . It downloads messages to a microSD memory card, if your smartphone has one. Another way is to transfer them to your computer and then use the application to restore them on a new smartphone by connecting it to your computer. Testing showed that the program copes with its work and all messages were transferred. However, other users with a large number of messages may experience different results.

    It is best to stop using SMS and MMS services altogether and switch to third-party instant messengers. For example, with Facebook Messenger, all you have to do is log into your account and all your messages will be at your fingertips. The same can be said about WhatsApp, Viber and others.

    You should not erase data on your old smartphone until you have set up a new one. Thus, all data will always be at your fingertips.

    Transfer music

    It's unlikely that you'll want to fill out your music collection from scratch on a new smartphone. Even if you don't use Google Play Music, this program is the best way to transfer music.

    It is best to do this using a computer. Play Music stores up to 50,000 audio tracks. You can then play them on any of your devices by logging into the app. In your browser, open Settings and download music to the Google Play Music desktop app on your computer. On your new smartphone, log into your Play Music account and all the music will be in front of you.

    Google Play Music will help you move your music.

    Special universal software for solving the problem

    The Play Market offers many programs, among which you can find unique solutions. For example, sentences such as and are well suited for our task. Using their functionality, the user is able to transfer data (contacts, calendar, photo and video files) from one Android phone to another via a Wi-Fi wireless network. These applications have rightfully earned high ratings from users.

    I would like to specifically mention CLONEit - Batch Copy All Data. The program can transfer 12 types of mobile data in just a few simple steps. Among them:

    • Contact details;
    • SMS and MMS;
    • Call log;
    • Program data and the programs themselves;
    • System settings and more.

    CLONEit - Batch Copy All Data can move more than 10 types of mobile data.

    How to work with CLONEit - Batch Copy All Data:

    1. Install it on both Android devices.
    2. Launch it.
    3. On the old phone you need to press the “Sender” button, and on the new one, “Receiver”.
    4. After the gadgets find each other and establish a connection, the user will have the opportunity to select the mobile data that needs to be transferred. To start the process you will need to press the button.

    Conclusion

    Using modern technologies, you can easily switch from one device to another, while retaining all the information and user data in memory. There is nothing complicated in the process of data transfer and backup; the main thing is to understand and understand how everything works. Of course, there is no point in transferring some data, for example, if we are talking about contacts saved on a SIM card or bookmarks in Google Chrome.

    You can also solve this issue using special universal applications, for example, Titanium Backup. But to work with this program you need Root rights.

    The green robot's "stomach" is smaller than a thimble. Especially on devices with little memory. I fed him a dozen or two super-mega-needed programs - and the place ran out. But... many of us have the opportunity to install a second “stomach” in the gadget and continue feeding.

    Today we’ll talk about transferring applications from internal memory to an SD card in Android smartphones and tablets.


    Which apps can be transferred and which ones can't?

    Among mobile applications, there are those that can be transferred between drives and those that cannot. When you transfer a program to external media, some components remain in the same place - in the permanent memory of the device.

    If the program is relatively autonomous and not too fussy in terms of the location of files and data, it will remain functional. And if it is deeply rooted in the operating system, when the work of other structures depends on it, the transfer can end disastrously - not only this program will stop working, but also everything that interacts with it. For this reason, you should absolutely not try to move system applications.

    The ability to transfer third-party products to microSD varies. It depends on whether the program author has provided for this possibility. They don’t write about this in the characteristics - everything is learned experimentally, but such experiments do not threaten serious consequences. If after transferring the program does not work, it is enough to return it to its place or reinstall it into the device’s memory.

    Moving by system means

    Modern versions of Android, starting from 6.0, support transferring software to cards without additional funds. They use a micro SD card as an extension of the internal storage, and the movement function is built into the firmware.

    To transfer a program from the memory of a smartphone or tablet to a card in Android 6.0 and higher, do the following:

    • Open system settings and go to " Device» – « Applications».
    • Open the menu (properties section) of the desired program with a short touch.
    • Tap " Storage", then " Change».

    • In the window " Changing storage location» select « Memory card».

    The instructions are applicable to devices of many brands and models, but adjusted for individual characteristics. Some manufacturers, for example, Samsung, instead of " Storage"You need to go to the section " Memory" Others have a button “ Move toSD" is located in the menu of applications that support this function. Well, others... simply didn’t bother and refused to implement the transfer function into the firmware of their devices.

    The ability to transfer applications to SD cards “without intermediaries” also exists in very old versions of Android - 2.2 and lower, and everything that appeared later - up to the sixth version - requires third-party tools, which will be discussed further.

    Mobile software for moving applications to SD

    AppMgr III

    The utility is convenient in that it makes it possible to perform similar operations with several objects at once (batch management of installed software). This is not only a change in the installation location of the software, but also:

    AppMgr III simplifies and speeds up many tasks for maintaining a mobile gadget, supports all versions of Android starting from 4.1, but is officially incompatible with devices from certain manufacturers, in particular Xiaomi. Operations with some objects require root rights.

    Link2SD

    An exclusive feature of the utility is that it transfers absolutely all user applications to SD cards, even those that do not allow this. The truth is, nothing is said in the description about whether the developer guarantees their continued performance.

    Other functions and features of Link2SD:

    • Changing attributes of user software to system software and vice versa.
    • Freezing unused software.
    • Batch transfer of software to SD cards and device memory.
    • Batch removal and reinstallation of programs, batch clearing of cache and data. Clear the cache of all installed software with one touch.
    • Removing potentially malicious software.
    • Manage device reboot.
    • Create custom shortcuts.
    • Sorting installed applications by various parameters, search and much more.

    Link2SD is more omnivorous than AppMgr III: it runs on any version of Android, starting from 2.3, and generally supports Xiaomi devices (although, according to user experience, not all). Most operations require root rights; it does not work on some firmware without root. The free version of the utility is quite good - functional and convenient, but annoying with intrusive advertising.

    Files To SD Card

    A simple utility is designed to transfer various types of files to a memory card - graphics, videos, music and, of course, applications. In addition, it allows you to choose an SD card as the location for saving new files (by default, Android saves everything on the device).

    Files To SD Card is used to unload the memory of mobile gadgets and backup data. Despite the fact that the manufacturer claims support for a limited number of devices: Lenovo A2010 LTE, Samsung GalaxyCore, Moto G, Vodafone Smart Prime 6, Nokia One and Sony Xperia M4, the utility runs on almost any smartphone and tablet running Android 5.0 and higher. On most firmware everything works without root.

    Move to SDCard

    The program with the simple name “” pleases users with its simplicity and good results. In addition to the main function, which coincides with the name, the utility can:

    • Move software from the card to the device memory.
    • Sort applications by name, size, installation date.
    • Display information about applications: installation location, date, time, size, name of the executable file (apk).
    • Search for software on your device and on the Internet.

    The utility is compatible with most brands and models of mobile gadgets, including very Chinese and very old ones (supports Android 2.3 and higher). Some features require root privileges.

    File manager

    is an improved explorer, a replacement for the standard file manager on Android smartphones and tablets. Changing the installation location of applications is just one of its functions.

    Other features of the File Manager include:

    • Copying, pasting, cutting, moving, deleting, renaming, downloading - that is, all standard operations with files and folders.
    • Integration with , OneDrive and DropBox.
    • Access to open resources on the local network.
    • Clearing cache, junk data, duplicates.
    • Sorting objects into categories.
    • Transfer files via Wi-Fi to other mobile devices, computers and Smart TV.
    • Analyze and graphically display storage space usage.
    • Archiving and unarchiving files. Supports all major compression formats: rar, zip, 7z, 7zip, tgz, tar, gz.
    • Organizing and storing documents of various formats: doc, ppt, pdf and others.

    The explorer is very lightweight and easy to learn, is not overloaded with redundant functions, and is undemanding in terms of hardware resources. Runs on Android 4.2 and higher. Some functions require root rights, but everything basic works like that.

    All-In-One Toolbox

    – a utility for comprehensive optimization and maintenance of a mobile system. Painless transfer of applications from internal memory to SD card and back is also one of its functions.

    Other useful features of All-In-One Toolbox:

    • Management of startup software (user and system).
    • Removing unnecessary data (cleaning up garbage, caches, duplicates).
    • Complete removal of programs with clearing of remaining files.
    • Speeding up the device by freeing RAM from running services and programs.
    • Reduced battery consumption.
    • Encryption of personal data.
    • Display a list of large files.
    • Explorer with the function of sorting objects by category.

    All-In-One Toolbox is a good tool for speeding up and maintaining smartphones and tablets with limited resources - small amount of storage and RAM, not the most productive processor, weak battery. Runs on devices of any brand and model, perhaps with a few exceptions. Some functions require root rights and depend on the Android version.

    As most often happens, this is not an exhaustive list of utilities with the ability to transfer applications to an SD card and back. There are hundreds of them, but each with its own quirks and character. I hope this short review will help you find exactly what you like and will also be tough for your Android device.

    How to transfer apps from internal memory to SD card in Android updated: August 13, 2018 by: Johnny Mnemonic

    Gifts are always nice. It’s especially nice to receive a brand new smartphone as a gift.

    So, you are the happy owner of a smartphone. But what now needs to be done so that all personal data from the old device ends up on the new one? If copying folders with videos and music is still somehow clear, then what to do with the phone book? Do you have to fill in all your existing contacts manually? Well, of course not. It's quite simple. Let's look at the optimal procedure for transferring personal data to a new Android device.

    I. Backup

    Before you begin the data transfer process, you need to make sure that the Data Backup and AutoRecovery options are active (they should be checked). Data archiving is necessary to create backup copies of user data through a Google account, such as Wi-Fi network settings, browser bookmarks and some programs. If you uncheck the Google system, this data will be automatically deleted. The AutoRecovery option saves data and application settings during reinstallation.

    The backup is started as follows: go to the “Settings” menu item, select “Personal”, then “Backup and reset”.

    After this, you need to log into your Google account from your new Android device: “Settings”, then “Accounts and Synchronization”, then “Add an account”. This will make backup copies of your data available and allow you to use the Google Play Store on your new device. Log in to your Google account. The first time you enter your account login information, your Google contacts, Gmail messages, Calendar events, and other data saved in Settings will automatically transfer over.

    II. Transfer contacts from phone memory

    In order to transfer contact information from the memory of an old phone to a new device, it is not at all necessary to frantically enter an infinite number of numbers manually. You just need to go to Contacts of your old device, press the Menu button and select “Import/Export”. The window that opens will show you how easy and simple everything is: just export the list to an SD card (internal memory). On the new device, you only need to repeat the same steps by selecting “Import from internal memory”, i.e. from the same card.

    If there is no SD card in the device, then you will need to connect the phone to the PC via a USB cable. The archive with contacts will need to be transferred from the internal memory of the device to the computer. The import process itself will be exactly the opposite of the export process.

    III. Transferring applications downloaded from Google Play

    Google Play Store allows you to download programs purchased and used on your old phone absolutely free. All this is achieved through the fact that all purchases in the Google Play Store are tied not to a specific device, but to an account.

    Paid applications are available through the Google Play Store menu in “My Apps”. You will not need to look for them again and pay again. But previously downloaded free applications will not be saved in this folder.

    IV. Transferring Call Log and SMS History

    Here you will need a separate program, such as SMS Backup, available for download through the Google Play Store. This application will save information about SMS, MMS messages and calls as a separate entry in GMail/Google calendar.

    One of the attributes of a modern mobile phone is durable glass that protects the display from scratches. The leader in the safety glass market is the company...

    A few days ago, LG began selling its next new product. We are talking about the LG G5 smartphone, which is positioned by the South Korean manufacturer...

    When choosing a new phone, everyone first of all thinks about what kind of camera it will have, how much memory, system or user, what the display diagonal is and much more. But not everyone thinks about how to do it correctly, although they are too lazy to repeat everything manually. Regardless of the brand and model, there are 4 ways to avoid losing information when transferring.

    Via personal computer

    This method is the most common and accurate in terms of data safety. This is because by dumping information on a PC, the user creates a backup copy, which can later be transferred to any other media.

    With all its advantages, this method is also the most labor-intensive, due to the need to perform the following actions:

    1. Install software for a specific brand of device on your computer. Usually the software is supplied together with the gadget on a disk, but it can also be found online, preferably on the official website. If the brands are different, you will need the appropriate utilities (for HTC phones this is HTCSync, for Samsung - Kies, etc.).
    2. To avoid any problems during the data reset process, you may need to enable USB debugging on each device. But this option is available in developer mode, which is enabled by repeatedly tapping on the build number in the settings.
    3. After this, the first Android needs to be connected to the PC using a cable and select the connection type for synchronization.
    4. Then launch the software and, following the prompts, make a backup copy of the necessary data to your computer’s hard drive.
    5. Then the information needs to be transferred to the second Android in the same way.

    Another disadvantage of this method of data transfer is that it does not allow you to restore application and system settings on the new gadget. But the following method will help with this.

    Using a Google account

    Due to the fact that Android and Google have common developers, they are directly related. Without a Google account, it will be difficult to use most services, and some are impossible at all, for example, downloading software from the Play Market.

    When you first start your phone or tablet on the Android platform, the system will prompt you to enter the details of an existing account or create a new one. Then in the settings you can mark what information needs to be synchronized with the cloud.

    So, the algorithm of actions in this case is as follows:

    • go to settings, General tab, Accounts and synchronization section;
    • find Google and open it;
    • long press on the name to open a list of data that can be synchronized;
    • check the date of the last synchronization of each desired item;
    • if necessary, check the box next to those items that are also needed but not included;
    • Log in on the new device using the same username and password;
    • wait until the automatic pumping of all applications, settings, contacts and other things ends.

    The advantage of this method is its autonomy, i.e. the entire process occurs virtually without owner intervention. In addition, using a Google account, you can transfer data even to a device that is located at a great distance from another.

    Each game or application will be re-loaded, and this leads to a minus - a network connection is required.

    Special software

    This option involves installing the same program on both devices. Let's look at this process using CLONEit as an example, which can be downloaded for free from the Play Market. You need to do the following:

    • run the utility on both devices;
    • select the type of this device (on the first Android it is the sender, on the second it is the recipient);
    • after the connection is established, a window for selecting the data to be transferred will appear on the screen of the sending phone;
    • check the required boxes and start the process.

    Thanks to this program, you can quickly and losslessly transfer the following information over a local Wi-Fi network:

    • phone book data;
    • SMS and MMS messages;
    • call log;
    • all software with settings and data;
    • system configurations and so on.

    Via memory card

    In this case, everything is clear and familiar:

    • insert a flash drive into one phone;
    • copy the necessary information onto it (even contacts can be exported);
    • take it out and insert it into the second phone;
    • leave it or copy the data.

    But what if you need to transfer not only photos and music to a second gadget? In this case, you will also need to use special utilities that will help you backup the old system on a new smartphone or tablet.

    Most programs for creating or uploading backups require superuser rights, and therefore you should think carefully before the procedure. After all, obtaining Root rights is a hacking of the system, and therefore violates the warranty service rules. An example of such software is Titanium Backup. With its help, you can make a copy of the following information:

    • publicly available software and configurations;
    • secure software and configurations;
    • system applications and settings;
    • all files available in the device memory.

    It is preferable to store the backup file on a memory card. This method is also convenient because it is very helpful in cases where the first phone was lost or broken. That is why every Android user is advised to make periodic backups on their own to prevent such situations.
