by iGThomas

I made this guide because there are a lot of people who can't backup or can but they do it with SSH... But this one is the easiest guide ever.

Requirements:

-A jailbroken iDevice
-You must login or register to view this content. (register with my refferal and you'll get extra 250mb)
-A Cydia App called: DataDeposit

I have tested it on iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4g firmware 4.3.2 but not on iPad

1.Downloading DataDeposit

Click on Cydia
You must login or register to view this content.

Go to the search tab and type "DataDeposit"
You must login or register to view this content.

Then tap on it and install
You must login or register to view this content.

2.Opening DataDeposit

Then close cydia and you'll have DataDeposit icon on SpringBoard
You must login or register to view this content.

Now open it and click on "Backup My Save Data..."
You must login or register to view this content.

Now link you DropBox account
You must login or register to view this content.

3.Backup

Select the App Data that you want to backup (I'll chose Angry Birds Rio)
You must login or register to view this content.

Click on "Backup Angry Birds" (You'll have your App name)
You must login or register to view this content.

Now you'll see that it will backup and Upload to dropbox

4.Restoring App Data

Now if you tap on Restore from DropBox you'll have this (I have only 2 games :p):
You must login or register to view this content.

And you tap on the App you want and it will download and automatically put to the App folder


And you're done!

Note: I really like DataDeposit(Thanks to You must login or register to view this content.), Because everybody can have problems with iPhone and iPod or want to restore firmware, and then you say "sh** I forgot to backup my savegames" and I had it a lot of time to say it. But now you know that only you can restore your App Data because it's on DropBox. I hope you enjoyed my tutorial and if you have question feel free to ask. Sorry for my bad English :$
