Is there something to install that backs up information on my app store apps (ex: what level Im on in Angry Birds) separate from the itunes backup so if I want to restore my phone as a new phone then my app information can be restored? (and also text messages, but thats not as important)
 
Well, it may not have been updated in a long time but it still does the job fine. The OP wants a backup of his app store apps' settings. Chronus does that. As far as I know, that's not what PkgBackup is for.
 
Is there also a way (with JB or not) to backup text messages to a program and so if I want to restore as new then I can restore my text messages?

the question was...if you had read the thread... is that If I had set it up as a NEW phone then could I get my texts back, which you cant through iTunes because then you would be backing up the entire old backup, which was not the thing I wanted to do. :)
