I can only backup some apps using helium backup. Other apps show error during backup.

[Android Central Question]

Some apps show an icon on backup page, and i can backup those.
Most of them don't show any icon. When i try to backup them, i get an error message. These apps without icon aren't backup disabled.
I can't seem to find a solution what-so-ever.
Am i missing some kind of permissions?

Any help is appreciated.!!

Its not only transfer , it backs up and restore
I have a arrow pointing to it

Once you make a backup go to your file manager and send it to Google drive

Also why I say save your back up to Google drive is if you ever do a factory reset it will delete your back up if not save to at least Google drive

The backup is giving me a .apk file. I need a .ab file. Any way to get that?

Have you tried sending an email to the developer? Koush Doutta a pretty well-known developer, so hopefully he'll respond. Perhaps you have to purchase the full version, but I did see some reviews where that didn't seem to help either. helium@clockworkmod.com
