Backup and Restore your Android Phone With ADB

Android-Backup

NOTE: this project has moved to https://github.com/riyad/android-backup

Backup and restore your Android phone with ADB (and rsync)

It will backup and restore all of your /sdcard directory and any other storage (e.g. an external SD Card) mounted within /storage except for emulated and self). Assuming you're using also something like Titanium Backup you'll be able to backup and restore all your apps, settings and data.
