HTC Exodus 1 - Backing up Contacts and Messages

Backup data will not count towards your Google Drive storage quota. Large files or files that app
developers have chosen to exclude from the service will not be backed up.
Restoring your wallpaper from your old phone may depend on screen resolution compatibility of
both your old phone and HTC EXODUS 1.

have one inserted.

messages to your backup, move them first to the general message box.
