Samsung Galaxy S5

Been thinking of going back to lollipop. What is the best way to backup your apps so that you don't have to download them again from the play store? Keeping in mind that my phone is not rooted.
I'm not lucky enough to have uncapped wifi.

I always download my apps again, so don't know the best way.

Think there is a new version of Titanium Backup out, which will do it for you?

*I like the new Battery stats, as it clearly shows that Facebook is hammering my battery. It has to go!

You need root to backup the actual apps as far as I know

@OGroteKoning is that correct? (frequent user of the app)

Can use APK share and backup

Yes. As far as I know. But there is an app called "App backup and restore" one can use

does lollipop perhaps have 'knock on' like the LG's lol?

Not for the S5, but root and modified kernel might solve that. But try Gravity Screen.

On Lollipop? BTU ROM?

 

[Nimz]

Nope... Kitkat as there is no update for the G900H

 

[Nimz]

Should I reload the current software or try a different Rom?
On ANH1 currently

Stay on official, the Lollipop update is just around the corner.

Maybe do a factory reset and install apps again.

Stay with the SA version or get something newer like

SM-G900H Argentina 2015 January 4.4.2 G900HXXU1ANJ2

?

Personally I wouldn't bother with another Kitkat ROM.

However, if you cannot wait, see if you can find the UK BTU Kitkat ROM.

Its bloatfree & really good.

I just got gatvol of all the custom ROMs, always bluetooth issues. I loaded a Stock Lollipop Samsung ROM from Sammobile. Stable and I'm happy with it.
