I know that Dalvik is a third part SW, but if I need to reset the phone I would like to create an Android backup ( files, game's savings....) but I need root permission to do that. I know that this not depend from you but I think that you understand that a backup of all files in the phone is very important.

Please give us the possibility to save all android files and folder we need to restore phone without problems and without loosing important savings or files.

please! I don't want to use terminal, I think that Jolla with Dalvik are able to solve this problem and make customers happy!

I thought all Android files (the user part of it at least) were located in /home/nemo/android_storage/, which you can access without special permissions. Which other files would you need to backup?

There is also an applikation on open repos where with which you are able to get root acess. It's from coderus and I think it's called aliendalvik superuser.

@nthn Games's savings and settings or cache of some apps. They are located in /data/data/"some folders". With andorid file browser I don't have access of them, I need to be root . With Sailfish file browser I don't have permission to see inside these folders or copy them.

@drummer21 I know, but I don't want to use openrepos because gave me lots of problems. I don't want to reset again the phone ( three reset for problems caused by openrepos' repositories). I want to use only Jolla store,and android market.
