Hmmm. You might save up and buy a pixel 5a. That has really good battery life. Or the pixel 6. Anything lesser and you might have to charge by 2/3 in the afternoon.

I will be moving from a pixel XL to a 3 XL
I want to move my app data from the old to new....

The only way to do is by using titanium/helium back up
and the device has to be rooted

i don't know a thing about rooting spent most of yesterday reading, watching videos on how to root my phone

--------------------------------------------------------------✓
saw this piece on a website
some things doesn't make sense to me
(ADB, fastboot, bootloader,TWRP)
but I get the idea

Before Getting Started:

It’s important for you to learn the
basic commands of ADB and
fastboot.

You need to make sure your
device bootloader is unlocked.

If you’re using boot.img mods
then you need to flash your
custom ROM again to use your
stock boot.img.

Install custom kernel after
installing Magisk on your phone.

to use this ↑↑↑↑ method I need a laptop which I don't have......

even if I had a laptop don't think I can do it cause it's foreign to me,and I might
-----------------------------------
So tried apps like kingroot,Rootmaster,Dr fone root these apps only older versions of Android nexus series
-----------------------------------
I also came across a post that Google now backs up app data but the app choses what get backed up,and that's if the developer has built the app that way,it's not all apps that do it...
-----------------------------------
copy the folder doesn't also work cause the folder is always empty when it gets transferred to another device


so I have tried everything my brain can think of but it doesn't work
if you know what or how I would really appreciate it....

Have you tried transferring your folders directly from your internal storage to the new device? Works everytime.

No need to over complicate issues.

Indeed, but the latest update simply throttled the battery, fantastically, unbelievably, wonderfully, brilliantly and optimally.......... grin

You honestly cannot backup your data at this point because to root your device, you have to unlock your bootloader and the procedure includes mandatory factory reset and data wipe. Just copy your media files to your new phone. Had it been you rooted your old phone before you began using it and installing apps, you'd have been able to backup your apps and their data.

I don't see how the price will reduce except you're willing to wait for several months. I'll be getting the pixel 7, if anyone is interested, I can get an additional one for the person.

Lol no be today we dey buy phones bro. Trust me, exchange rate or not, the price will drop to that 400k or less. How much is pixel 6 rn even though the dollar is at its peak? On this NL you'll get it for 260k if you search very well. I bought the 6 pro for 350k in May. Check am.

No worry, just watch and see.

Hello guys, any idea how much to replace pixel 4xl screen? And where I can get it done perfectly.

Phone fell some time ago, and battery pulled out, had an engineer open it from the back and clipped it back, been working perfectly since just to bring it out of my pocket yesterday afternoon and notice screen shaking.

You should get it if you've used a pixel before bro. You will not regret it. Honestly.
