    In this video, I am going to show you how to backup and restore your Samsung Smartphone. All Samsung smartphones such as the Galaxy S23 Ultra, S22 Ultra, Fold 4, Flip 4, A74, etc have the same built-in method for backing them up.
    Each backup backs up phone call logs, contacts, messages, settings, home screen settings, and more. It basically backs up a replica of your smartphone so if you ever lose your phone or damage it, you can restore everything and move on.

      sir, is there any method to synchronize our phone to hard drive? Like everyday we may take some pctures or install an application to our phone. So that case we can have any method to synchronize to HDD or SSD what have been added each day?

    I bought the T7 (1TB) to save photos/vids on and it works perfectly. I guess I will now use it to backup my phone, thanks Saki 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾

    I own Samsung T7 1TB drives for a while and do regular backups. I also use Sandisk USB-C memory sticks and use some to copy data. Since the internal storage is fast and microSD slower, expandable memory is not common these days on top end phones. Also helps reduce cluttering storage space.

  • @jat-justamaturetech-philpj8285

    Why do I keep getting my music duplicates everytime I get a new phone? And everytime it folds over to quads 4X's and 8X's. And the thing is, I can't delete the right ones cause I have a playlist with the same song on different list, so i might accidentally delete the wrong one if I want to save storage. Very frustrating! I do have the do not duplicate on when transferring to the new phone but does not apply to music file's!
    Also, somewhere with all the updates, Samsung music doesn't play WMA file's anymore so I can't play 100's of songs!

    Why does this Samsung Smart Switch need all these permissions to backup my own phone to my own device. Call logs, microphone ( really ?) my calendar, my contacts, nearby devices, photos and videos and my text messages. I'm only backing up my own info, NO NEED FOR ANY PERMISSIONS TO ANY OUTSIDE ENTITY... B.S. It's a no for me. The issue is there is no other way for me to backup my phone to an external drive or PC locally, without this "Samsung Smart Switch" and all these permissions

    I bought the 2TB version of the same SSD on Sakitech's advic e to backup everything from my 1TB S23 Ultra phone. I have never seen a faster data transfer rate in my life. My phone's backup size was 341GB and when I first plugged in the Samsung SSD and selected everything in the backup, it said it would take 20+ hours to complete t he backup.
    I started the backup and very soon, the remaining time started to come down. In the end the full backup (341 GB) took only 46 minutes to complete as opposed to the original 20+ hours.

    Wait! Samsung T7 and T7 Shiel will not let you backup when your phone are using SD card. There are no setup that let you choose where to Backup phone. I Have Samsung S20 with SD card and it only let you Backup to SD card.
    Does it only work when you're using internal storage?

    @NigelRabson Před 11 měsíci

    This does not work. You are asked to install Smart Switch when selecting Backup to External Device. After installing Smart Switch you are then asked to sign-in to your Samsung Account which I do not have. There is no way past the sign-in step, therefore you cannot backup your phone to an external USB drive.
