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)
Got a tip for us?

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?

Yeah.....i forgot the name...right now..... something like iTones...or iTumes .... wait ....
Oh yeah... iTunes....😀😀😀
LOL, if you want to avoid itunes just back up the sms.db on var/Mobile/Library/SMS
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. 🙂
