As always... on the money! Never a problem as long as I come to your channel! Thank you!

Best and easiest explanation of a usb backup. Thank you!

Thank you ! this video was perfect for me to back up my Samsung phone that had 3 years of photos on it

Hello! & BIG THANK YOU! I'm getting a new phone & finally trying out an iPhone 13 to see what all the fuss is about and quiet my curiosity. We'll see how it goes Lol A huge anxiety I've had is backing up my photos/videos mostly because I haven't updated the os & am somehow running my Samsung Galaxy S7 on the 7.0 version😰! I knoww. I know lol. My phone is on it's last breath & I've been pushing my luck. I've had a fear of trying to update the os now because it may not work & I'll lose the contents stored on my phone or something Weird will happen. Thanks to you & your video, I know what to do now. Your instructions are great & your warm tone of voice, along with your positive encouraging energy has calmed & reassured me. I can do this! It's gonna be Ok. lol Anyhow, Thanks again I was really stressed out! I appreciate all of your help 😄 ❤🤓

Thanks for uploading this informative video. Kudos.

One of the best illustrated piece of instructional video on KZfaq. Great job sir.

Thnak you for this - very handy - all people should back up data.

Great video & information, and it worked perfectly thanks.

Thanks for the vid. I agree with you on the points you made. Samsung has come a long way from the Note 2 / Touchwiz days of about 12 years ago.

Thanks! this is really useful. I am going to buy a flash drive to back up my Samsung s20+ as it is starting to get screen issues which are worrying me. This video is reassuring as it shows how easy it is to do. Thanks again!

Thanks 👍Appreciate your interest in helping those who seek your advice in comments 🙏

Great helpful video. 👍 Thanks

Thanks been getting tips from you since the Sony xperia z1 days

Awesome! Didn't know this. Thank you.

Thank you for uploading this video

This an awesome video. The first one I clicked on, on the subject. I was looking up a way I could making a physical backup of mainly my videos as I use my phone as my video camera for my KZfaq channel.

Hiii I'm from your sub & appreciate the your videos . And Have Question can you store your important phone datas in flash drive and keep the flash drive with you for 2 or 3 or 4 years, i mean if the phone stolen & backup without viruses came in it (summary: how to keep your flash drive away from viruses) And thank you for your hard work

Thank you for this important and valuable information. Liked and Subscribed.😃

I should definitely backup my phone some time too. Too lazy for it🙈🤣 But great work as always❤

Very helpful well explained video - thanks 👍

Thank You this was so easy

Hi i have a question, when you back up everything, are the Files (example: files, documents, installer files,compressed file, folders) in "My Files" or "File Manager" app saved? Or only the videos and photos? Thx

This is a very informative video and I will refer to it when i buy my next cellphone.

Thank you kind sir, been great help!

Hey, can you share buying link for the samsung type c pen drive

Wow, VERY useful! 👍

I find this funny. I just got a new S23 Ultra replacing my Note10+ and need to backup everything from the past 5 yrs from the Note. I have sooo much crap on it that I didn’t want to clutter my new phone with 😅 Thanks for a super helpful video!

Thank you. in the past I used Smartswitch, which wasn't that smart.

Great video Charlie keep those videos comin take care

EXCELLENT video, just the tech solution I've been looking for. Question: if I perform another backup, say a month later to the SAME USB-C Flash Drive, is the previous backup completely overwritten OR are only the newest files ("deltas") added to the existing backup? Thanks, F1

Many thanks!

What for a colorful animation is it, on the s23 ultra at 4:33? It's look very nice. Can you tell me, what the name of the app is? I thank you!

Best explanation. Thank you

Does it transfer all the individual ringtone and specific notifications for all your contacts too? Smart switch didn't and it's a pain to all setup again.

I have s10e and have a flash drive that has a regular USB on 1 side and smaller on the other side but it's not small enough. I watched these videos and 1 said to get the usb c to usb otg adapter. I did and it still doesn't work. It fits loosely. What kind of adapter do I need?

all i want to do is move media clips from my phone that i don't want to delete but want to keep & move them onto a usb device to free up space, can you recommend a SSD flash drive and adapter to use?

What about internet bookmarks and 'add to homescreen' internet links? Does this feature also backup and restore those to a different phone too?

Super! Thanks!

VERY HELPFUL..THANKS

Hi, I am an old folk & not very tech savvy. Can u explain how do we regularly back up the content of the phone. Do we use the same USB & plug it into the phone in the same way we do it the 1st time? Then does that mean that what was transferred to the USB the 1st time gets override & the new content now takes over. So if we have deleted some phones from the phone to clear up storage, when we backup the phone with the USB the 2nd time , Will we then lose some of the contents that were originally transferred or backed up into the USB previously but is now not on the phone storage? Please advise. Thank you.

This is amazing!!! Thanks so much.

Great! What if I do not do Google backup for WhatsApp instead do this offline backup, will it work?

Can videos be recorded directly to the sd or external hardrive instead of the phone and then transfered to the drive.

thank you so much tech guy charlie

Does this back a micro sod card as well.

I am trying to USB backup a Samsung in preparation for rooting. How am I supposed to do this if I need account credentials. The "phone" has no service provider, I brought it from Target-- only use is as a personal wifi device (do things like browse KZfaq, check email, listen to playlists). The only access codes I have are my Gmail password and the lock screen code i'm just backing it up in case rooting goes wrong and I need to restore the phone.

Is it necessary to have a samsung account? Because the backup app can be downloaded from the google play store! and It is usually already installed on the phone. At the same time, it's on a USB stick, can't we create a password code to access our data?

What if I get a message that says not enough available storage to create a backup file? I cleared some data and then the amount of data that needed to be cleared increased after I cleared some. HELP!!!

Charlie, great video

Is this works on Old samsung phones too like A8+?

My A54 would not see the USB 128Gb. I had to plug into PC with Win11. Change the USB size to 4GB only. Then plug the USB into Android A54. Go to Storage and the USB could be formated to FAT32 with 128GB using Android. It works.

This old video works. So, this also backed all my junk on the SD card in my Samsung A54. Is there a way to stop this from backing up the SD card also?

my samsung s7 doesn't have "external storage transfer" in settings! what do i do?

Hey, i backed up my phone on samsung cloud. Happend my phone dropped snd stoped working. Restored data to tablet but i got only app new installed but i need to relog everywhere. What is the point of cloud back up if i dont have complete data,what to do?

Obrigado! Merci!

Time 0:50 How often should we Backup ? Recommendation Please

Thank you

Would anybody know after transfer and you sign in to samsuung account how much of the information is samsuung able to see or keep.

Is It possible to restore to another phone model? Same manufacturer but different model. Let s say xiami redmi note 8 to 12pro

can I do this on a safe mode android? my phone is not working properly.

Thanks

We have basic and mid range Samsung phones but they do not have any option to back up to external drives. How to fix this problem?

thank you

Thank you Charlie 😊 Rox🌟🇬🇧

I saw it also allowed something to happen with WhatsApp. I assume once WhatsApp databases have been copied, that it probably wont work until you remove the phone sim from original phone and then insert into the 2nd phone?

Video is super helpful. I have a question which is : Can this be done between Samsung to Iphone? Or just Samsung to Samsung? Thank you

But how to transfer " downloads" alone? Is optoon available?

This is amazing, does it work on the Samsung S24 Ultra? Thank you so much! ❤

Worked well to back up Samsung to flash drive. I also uploaded flash drive to PC. Charlie's video states you have to sign on to Samsung to decrypt to see files but I could not figure out a way to do this since Samsung app is only on my phone and not on my PC. Any suggestions?

My new iPhone 15 stopped working in only two months due to major fault in the phone. I lost all everything. Please let me know how to back up on iPhone 15.

Can I delete the photos since I backed up my phone? And will it make more space on my phone. Thanks for sharing your video.

Where can I get that Wallpaper you are using? :)

This is what I'm trying to do now is backup. But what if I'm having problems with Samsung acct?! Everytime I try to sign in i get denied. I think its bc I'm using Google's password manager. Everything is all messed up. Please help me!!!!!

What about the secure folder

What is the cause of Samsung screen failures (lines, green screen of death) when the phone screen itself or the phone has no suffered any physical damage? I've heard it has to to with firmware corruption, but is there any way to resolve it when a factory reset cannot be completed (because that process is also corrupted)? Can S series by flashed if Samsung Knox is present and the fuse has been tripped? I want to install a custom OS like Graphene, but my S10E is Qualcomm version and can no longer boot phone to enable developer options.

Not a savvy user. How can I check to see what Samsung account I used on the phone before I encrypt the data? I found out how to change the passsword.. thank you

Does it download Google photos, too?

Hi there. Will this backup work on all the files from my old Samsung phone (both internal storage contents + micro sd card storage contents) and transfer them to a newer Samsung phone (with internal storage only)? Your kind advice would be appreciated 😊👍

funny because the time thing was the opposite for me, it said it would take around 35 minutes but around 60% it increased to 4 hours

Hey Charlie can you make a video about when to replace thermal of hp pavillion gaming laptop I have exactly same specs that you have It has been 1.7 years old Considering the heat wave in India When should I change the factory applied paste Also I have thermal grizzly cryonuat

Thank you for this and all your other informative videos I've used over the years. When I do the next back up on the same USB drive will it overwrite the original, add a total new backup or just update the files that have changed? You may have addressed that on the video but I did not notice. Thank you.

I'M NOT SURE WHERE YOU'RE AT BUT MY WIFE AND I ARE ON THE EAST COAST IT IS 1:30 A.M. AND I REALLY NEED TO GET SOME SLEEP MY WIFE ESPECIALLY. ANYHOW I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW I'VE WATCHED ONLY 4 MINUTES OF YOUR VIDEO AND NOT ONLY CAN I UNDERSTAND YOU PERFECTLY BUTTS FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN THIS FAR IT SEEMS LIKE YOU GET STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. SO EVEN THOUGH I DON'T LIKE TO PUT THE CARRIAGE BEFORE THE HORSE I'M GOING TO SAY THANK YOU FOR TAKING TIME OUT AND PUTTING CONTENT LIKE THIS FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO ARE NOT TECH SAVVY. AGAIN I'VE ONLY WATCHED APPROXIMATELY 4 MINUTES OF THE VIDEO DUE TO TIME AND SLEEP SO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU ACTUALLY ANSWER THIS QUESTION THAT I'M ABOUT TO ASK I HAVE A SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FOLD 4 DO THE SAME STEPS APPLY TO MY SAMSUNG Z FOLD 4. AGAIN I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT TO HELP PEOPLE SUCH AS MYSELF AND MY WIFE MAY YOU HAVE A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR........

Can you load your backup to your computer

Charlie I do have a doubt. Did u apply tempered glass for this 23 ultra? I can't find any glass in my area. Please help me finding a right one for my protection.

I always use a USB Stick to back up my Galaxy I do it on the 1st of every month.

My phone is 250gig. Is the backup compressed or I need a 250gig flash drive

Will this work Samsung and one plus phones? Thanks.

If you have a tabs open on one phone, will the tabs be all open on the other after the installation of the backup?

Trying to do this for pixel 8 pro. I am unable to do this. Please help !!

I just wish you could add an external drive, especially since they removed the flash card drive.

I actually have a question. Once I have my data from my Galaxy S21 backed up to a flash drive, can I open it using a Macbook, and if so, how?

What Is The Maximum Storage Amount Of USB Flash Drive The Note 20 Ultra Can Support ❓

Is it safe to wirelessly charge your phone when the USB is plugged in to your phone and the data is transferring?

Can you it for Samsung to other Android devices .

Chuck, are multiple backups to the same USB drive seperate or are they jack off over written like Samsung does?

Can I transfer data from a xiaomi to a OnePlus 😮

When you do a restore, will the photos / videos have original timestamp or timestamp overwritten with the restore date? Does anyone know?

What about Google authenticator and other secure app like bank apps

Yeah, I did that ... and then it gave me no option to restore from the USB when I had a problem!

What can one do if they change brands?
