How to backup a android device to a computer
« on: 19 February 2014, 19:26:00 »
My Asus MeMo ME173X Tablet (Android 4.2.2) has developed a fault where it won't connect to WiFi and I've tried everything and it still wont work, So i'm going to try and get it replaced by Tesco...

But before all that I need to back it up onto my computer. But I have no idea how  :-\

Depending on how much data you have a USB stick or stand alone drive would do the job.

As in a OTG connection ? .. I tried connecting a USB memory stick to it awhile ago it doesn't accept them.

Plug it into a PC, should appear as an external drive then you can drag pics videos etc over to your PC.
Alternatively Dropbox comes in handy for transferring stuff between PC and android devices.

On my android tab, I just open the file manager and copy and paste any files to the card.
