If I use smartswitch to back up my phone, will it restore my phone the way it was after I do a factory reset? Or will I have to manually restore my settings or home screen or anything like that? Thanks
I just did a factory reset and restored with Smart Switch and you do have to set up your home screen and adjust the settings again; including disabling apps, setting up accounts, and lock screen settings. Other then that everything was restored, including apps. Bear in mind some apps tend to act odd after being restored from backup so if any give your trouble you'll just need to uninstall it and then install it from Google Play.
You may be able to update the apps that go wonky.I just did a factory reset and restored with Smart Switch and you do have to set up your home screen and adjust the settings again; including disabling apps, setting up accounts, and lock screen settings.

Thank you. In that case I just won't do it. Too much of a hassle x__x
I agree, I find it very painful Especially since all the apps that require different login and passwords,( for example i have a bunch of airline and travel apps that use an account number instead of email and I can never remeber what they are).
Wish Android had a back up like Apple does with iCloud as it restores your phone EXACTLY the way it was before restore.
Yea same here. Coming from an apple phone, I miss being able to restore my phone just the way it was :/ not to mention the iphone's battery life was much better

There's an app in the Play Store called Titanium Backup Root.
