How do I backup my Ubuntu Phone?

Solution 1:

I made a little script to make backing up the phone easier. It's on github.

Solution 2:

  • Backing up the /home/phablet folder will backup everything except the apps.
  • You can get a list of all installed apps by running click list on your phone. You will have to reinstall these manually.

Apps are installed in an number of places and trigger other things like apparmor profile processing so there is no easy way to backup those.
