I just did a factory reset of my phone yesterday...I backup my pictures and contacts but did not back up my existing text messages...However, I do have the box checked to back up my data to the cloud.

Does this include text messages? If so, how do I get them back to reload? Does this save my game data as well (I 3 starred everything on angry birds and angry bird seasons)...

Not a big deal if I can't get them back but it would be nice...

The Google Cloud Backup only backs up a list of the apps on your phone (and re-installs them from the Play Store), your homescreen wallpaper, wifi keys, bookmarks and contacts.

It doesn't backup save games, texts, MMS, or pictures.

I'd recommend you get SMS Backup+ It doesn't even require root.

thanks...I did reinstall all of my apps from Google play already...

I upgraded to ICS a few weeks ago and my phone has been kinda buggy but after the reset yesterday, it feels like a brand new phone...
