I have a phone with LineageOS right now, with a lot of apps installed and configured. I want to test out CarbonROM. However, if I don’t like it, I want to be able to re-install Lineage and keep all the configuration that I have now. How can I do this?
no such thing exists. there’s a buncha stuff claiming to do it but I’ve tried everything there is and everything fails differently, but consistently.
source: tried for close to two weeks to create a perfect clone to a similar phone (Poco F1 to Oneplus 6T - both have the same SoC, LineageOS, rooted) so that all apps and settings and storage and whathaveyous are copied and I failed. even the supposedly standard backup - wipe - restore, on the same phone, doesn’t work.
