full phone backup guide

Hi, I am about to send Jolla phone to Care for repairs, so I have started looking at full device backups and surprisingly I haven't found a guide, only feature requests.

My intent is to create a list of things (mainly folders) to back up before doing a full reset while waiting Jolla to implement it as feature in the phone. I am confident this will help many people, myself included, to not miss/forget some to backup something making the restore impossible.

  1. Contacts-Calendar-SMS-pictures-video

use the Jolla backup to SD card feature

  1. Jolla native application settings

/home/nemo/.local/share/ (it requres developer mode)

  1. Android application data

/home/nemo/android_storage

  1. Android APK files

/data/app

Any improvement is welcome :)
