ClockworkMod Helium Premium – App Sync and Backup v1.1.3.1

ClockworkMod Helium Premium – App Sync and Backup v1.1.3.1

Helium is the missing app sync and backup solution for Android.
Helium does NOT require root. All Android users can use Helium to backup and sync Android applications.
Helium lets you backup your apps and data to your SD card or cloud storage. With Helium, you can sync app data from your other Android devices– even if they are not on the same network. Set up backup schedules with Helium, and never lose data again.


Helium App Sync & Backup saves copies of your vital data for you if you don’t want to do it, yourself. It includes an app backup in addition to backing up your sensitive files, but it’s a major pain to set up. It takes most of the appeal of automatic backup away.
Helium App Sync & Backup is made mostly for rooters, but it will work with some unrooted phones, too. To be sure it works with yours, check developer options in your settings menu and see if you can turn on USB debugging. If you can’t, this app is useless for you. Once you’ve done that, you’ll still have to download a desktop app to work with Helium. If all of those strings attached don’t turn you off, the app can provide decent backup. The backup scheduling works and cloud backup is really helpful. It’d be nice if the app supported more cloud options than Box, Google Drive, and Dropbox, though.
It’s not that this is a bad app; it’s just that it makes something you can do, yourself, harder than actually doing it, yourself. In the time it takes to download and set up Helium App Sync & Backup, you could have had everything on your SD card moved to your computer. If not, you could have easily downloaded one of the countless other backup apps on Android.

Note: Helium is NOT available to Motorola devices. This is because Motorola phones have a bug that break Android’s backup mechanism. Until this is fixed by Motorola, Helium will not work on those Androids.
If you find that Helium *does* work on your Motorola Android, please notify me.
Note: Some Sony devices have issues with Helium. This includes the Xperia S and Xperia Z. Sony has *disabled* backup on these devices completely.

Lollipop, lollipop
Oh lolli, lolli, lolli, lollipop, lollipop
Call my baby lollipop, tell you why
His kiss is sweeter than an apple pie
And when he does his shaky rockin’ dance
Man, I haven’t got a chance
