Phone Message


Step 4: Now select the app you wish to back up and check it off. I chose "Asdivine Dios" Now Hit "Backup"


Step 5: Select where you want it to back up to. Select "Internal Storage" {It will save it to you SDcard portion of your device, right under the folder "Android"


Step 6: Wait for it to finish.


Step 7: Go to your file manager and go under your device/Android & you will now see a new folder called "Carbon"


Step 8: Inside the carbon folder you will find a folder with the games name you just backed up.


***Final Steps***

-Making a save for someone else-
Copy this entire folder with the files in it to your desktop or zip it right from your device, upload it and share the link.

-Using a save someone else made-
Download and install the game you wish to use a save for, run helium & backup the game.
Download the helium save & extract it to"android/carbon" and overwrite the save you just made.
Go to "Restore & Sync" at the top o Helium and restore the game data.
Exit Helium, run game & ENJOY the fun.

***Note***
If you read the box in step 3, each time you shut down your phone/device you will need to reattach it to your PC to activate it. This is only needed if your not rooted. Root users, just install and run, grant root access and your good to go.

Best of Luck.

Re: Tutorial How use use Helium Backup NO ROOT

When I realized you could use Helium without root. I found it amazing, because I was so used to Titanium Backup being Root only and Non root users could never use any of the save files. But now that we know about this it can change a lot for non rooted users.

Hi Axiom, I have installed both my phone and pc with helium app, downloaded universal abd driver and also set my phone to transfer data using PTP. But the app does not connect to each other on the phone and pc. It is stuck at the "need to enable PTP" even though it has already at that setting. I am using Xiaomi Mi Max (android 6.0.1). I read in several reviews on the app on playstore that it does not work at all? Do you have any solution? Thanks in advance. =)

Helium works great. I have it on my LG G2 Rooted running Android 4.4.4, my LG GPad 10.1 Rooted running Android 5.0.2 & My LG G5 not rooted running Android 6.0.1 and it works on all 3. I'll see what I can find on your device and see if I can figure out any solutions for you.

*Edit*
I've looked at a few things and Helium does work on Android 6.x.x and on your device. The only thing I could find at the moment is try switching from "PTP" to "MTP" that's what all my devices are on.

Let me know what happens and I'll keep looking too.

Hi Axiom. Thanks for the advise. However, I did try with "MTP" mode and rotate the modes, but still faced with the same problem.

Hi @Axiom !
I know this post it's a bit old, but I have a few questions:
Does this method still works for android 7?
And when you say plugging to the PC will be necessary every time I shut down my phone, it means always, or only if I want to run Helium or acces the saved folder? I need to know since I use the phone to work and not being able to use it if I switch batteries on the street could pretty much fork my life xD
Thanks!!

It does work on 7. I'm using it on Android 7 myself. Your phone will work weather or not you active Helium, but if you shut your phone down, restart it or pull the battery, if you want to use Helium again, you will need to plug it into your PC again,{meaning, making a save or restoring one} all other phone functions will work fine.
