I didn't root when I first received my N4, mostly because I knew I was getting stock Android and had heard so many good things about its customization potential that I figured I wouldn't need it. Since that time, however, I've stumbled across a few niggling issues that have caused me to reconsider rooting (including, but not limited to, some people claiming much extended battery life). I know unlocking the bootloader wipes the device. So my question is, does anyone know of a reliable app/device backup program I can use that will save me time and hassle--i.e., allowing me to avoid having to re-install my apps one by one, and/or redo all my settings? Figured I'd ask before I take the plunge.
PS: if anyone can link me the best thread for dummy proof, step by step rooting this would also be appreciated.
Muchas gracias!
