But if you backup,applications won't be backed up with their data.</P> Wed, 14 Jan 2015 13:51:10 GMT https://community.sony.hr/t5/z-series/developer-options/m-p/3324941#M40963 _alexdon_ 2015-01-14T13:51:10Z https://community.sony.hr/t5/z-series/developer-options/m-p/3324942#M40964 Many thanks Wed, 14 Jan 2015 15:51:04 GMT https://community.sony.hr/t5/z-series/developer-options/m-p/3324942#M40964 Kentom 2015-01-14T15:51:04Z https://community.sony.hr/t5/z-series/developer-options/m-p/3324943#M40965 No problem Wed, 14 Jan 2015 19:07:35 GMT https://community.sony.hr/t5/z-series/developer-options/m-p/3324943#M40965 Phy 2015-01-14T19:07:35Z
