Android backups (.ab) are backups made by Android Debug Bridge (ADB). They are the preferred way of backing up an unrooted stock android device. (Manufacturers and/or carriers may provide their own backup tools). They can be encrypted or unencrypted. They can be created via ADB backup and restored via ADB restore.
Flags
