iPhone How can i backup dungeon hunter 4 and save it back to my fresh restored iphone

[BumpyFlatline]

Interesting, thank you for the information as I wanted to wipe my phone completely clean (not from backup) and keep my expensive app (plus its data) but that wasn't possible with DiskAid.

The only tricky part is that I don't want to be jailbroken anymore, but AppBackup will work to allow me to restore completely clean (not possible on DiskAid) and still keep the data on my expensive app:
1) Jailbreak my iPhone in its current state
2) Install AppBackup
3) Backup expensive app (plus its data)
4) Wipe phone clean with restore as new
5) Jailbreak again
6) Install AppBackup again
7) Install expensive app (plus it's data)
8) Make backup in iTunes of basically stock iPhone (just 1 app)
9) Use DiskAid to transfer expensive app (plus its data) to my mac
10) Restore in iTunes from backup made at step 8
11) Use DiskAid to put the expensive app (plus its data) back on my nearly stock phone!

Hope this works. But worst case scenario I simply restore my phone from a previous backup that actually works with DiskAid. Both apps play their part in this scenario as AppBackup lets you keep the data on your app when restoring brand new, yet DiskAid allows you to keep the data on your app even if you aren't jailbroken.

Yes that actually will probably work perfectly. Here's a link to the step by step instructions for AppBackup. After you backup the expensive app, you need to copy the file to your computer before wiping the device. After you restore as new and install the expensive app, you will need to copy the back up file from your computer back to the newly jailbroken as new device. Then open AppBackup, scroll down to the expensive app, and tap restore. This should put it back to the same state it was when you originally backed it up. (I hope that makes sense. A lot of backup and restores in this post lol)

Why not try try this on your 5s without involving the 5c at all...

--Assuming it's jailbroken, restore from backup...the backup that had the DH4 information you now want to restore. I understand your iphone problems re-appear when you do this but it's only temporary.

--Install and run Appbackup. Save/copy the Appbackup tree to your computer.

--Clean install 7.1.2 on your 5s again. Jailbreak. Install Appbackup. Transfer backup tree to your 5s.

I may have gotten lost in the prior posts, but it seems like you're restoring your 5c appbackup to the 5s. Granted it takes time, but why not create the backup from the 5s and restore from that same source/device?

That's cool. Just really curious if that'll work. I use AppBackup very very frequently so if this works, I'd like to make note of it so that if I, or someone I know, run into the same situation as you I'll have a potential solution.

If you try please post your results. Good luck.

It worked!!!!!!!! Basset guide worked. I did what he said, and now i can see the progress after a fresh install and then jailbreak

Thank you guys for all the support

Awesome! Haha I knew AppBackup worked faithfully for me. This is the first time I've seen this situation where you can only restore on the same device. I'm glad you posted this thread because I would have always been telling everyone to use AppBackup never knowing that there can be cases when a game is device specific like DH4.

Glad you got it working!

Yeap, thank you very much to all. Wow, I can see how much you love appbackup

The thing is that, i was going to be lazy and i was just going to say that it didn't work because I knew it would take some time to install all tweak, cydia apps and appstore apps. but because you asked that you wanted to know the results, i did it.

Haha that is hilarious! Well thanks again for going through the hassle to try because I would have never thought to suggest that. Glad you got it working!

Great news! Funny part about my advice? I've never heard of or used Appbackup. I'm actually not even jailbroken. This general approach to recovering data has worked for me in another scenarios (desktop, Android, etc.) so I thought I'd throw it out there.

Sigh. Didn't work

For some reason anytime I do a fresh restore, not from backup, the app somehow knows and wants me to sign in (which I can't since my subscription expired).

Oh well, I guess I'll just keep using DiskAid and simply restore from backup to keep my app data.

Thank you again for your help, really appreciate you trying

That is too funny. Sometimes it takes a village!

That's too bad. Sorry you didn't get the results you were looking for. The whole subscription thing is probably the cause .
