                    When I was asking about any phone, I was meaning the available phones for UT, of course. ☺

                      @lool_lauris 😉 And this is also why I asked if everybody had the folders "user-data" and "system-data" on their devices while in recovery mode, because this folder will be the one to be backing up.

                          Does this work while the phone is booted normally or in recovery/bootloader mode?
                          Looks cool, has it been merged already?

                            @kugiigi It will work only on recovery, because it need to read or write system data. It is not merged yet, I will do it asap.

                              @AlainW94 It writes? may I know for what?
                              Anyway, I just thought I can use it for backing up/restoring my MultiROM UT installs 😅
                              Good luck with this 🙂

                                  @kugiigi Yes it write if you restore a backup ! The backup tool will backup the content of 2 folders : /data/user-data and /data/system-data.
                                  If you open a shell on the recovery, and type

                                  ls /data
                                  

                                  And if you can see in there the previouly named folders, then the backup tool will be able to backup this file on your multirom device.

                                    Of course, restoring will write data....what a stupid question from me 😄
                                    I'll check this functionality once it's merged in the app.
                                    Thanks.
