New DI2

[Slothead]

Hi Folks,
I have just swapped my Moto Droid (1) for an Incredible 2. For the time being I'm still using my Droid X (I have two accounts/two phones), but needed a Global-capable phone for some summer trips.

My primary question is how to replicate the apps I have on the X to the I-2.

I tried to use Backup Assistant on the D1 and it doesn't seem to be able to use it (at any rate, I have already restored the D1, so it is no longer an option).

I will be comfortable with duplicating the content of the X to the I-2, but when I use backup assistant on the X it reported that it saved on "64 items." I'm hoping that is apps (although even that seems low), because I have hundreds of contacts that I would have hoped would be backed up. In any case the X is still operable so I should be able to replicate it if there is a way.

thanks in advance,

I use app2sd and love it. There is a free and a paid version in the market.

OK guys, thanks for the tip. Have either of you (or anyone else) tried both the free and paid versions and can comment on whether the paid version is worth the expense?

For backing up contacts, if you select "Google contact" when you create the contact, then all your "Google contacts" will be added to your phone when you add your Google account to the phone.

That being said, backing them up to SD works perfectly, too.

I wish some of the apps from Apple store were available on Android. There are a few that i'd have loved to have there here (mainly games).
