How would you backup your entire mobile device and not just the pictures and videos?

How would you backup your entire mobile device and not just the pictures and videos?

There are a few options for that. The quickest way to do so is by using SanDisk backup flash drive. It cost around £30 (depends on capacity). It will backup 64GB of photos, videos, contacts, calendars and more in less than an hour. You can then connect it to your NAS or computer and transfer all data there. Or you can keep it on a flash drive as a backup. You can also connect it to your phone and record long videos directly on the pen drive saving space on your phone.

You can also use Synology NAS app called Moments. This will back up all your video and photos but not phone settings, calendars or contacts. But you can set up your NAS to store all your contacts with CardDAV Server. Also, contacts can be backed up using CalDAV function on a NAS. Instead of carrying a flash drive connected all the time for extra storage space, you can mount a network drive or WebDAV disk to your phone (how).

Acronis True Image app on your phone and a server app on your NAS will allow you to backup the entire phone as an image. You will need simple NAS like DS218j though. You will avoid having any monthly payments or cloud storage space restrictions.

But if you rather back it up to the cloud rather your own RAID box, then Acronis also offer cloud service. So during the app configuration instead of choosing NAS or PC choose Cloud.
