This may be a simple question to most but my days of attempting to find the answer have not been successful.Sent from my SGH-M919
I just had my S4 rooted w TowelRoot. This is my first rooted Android. I installed titanium pro and have backed up some apps then Uninstalled said bloatware. I have been trying to find out how to do a Nandroid or complete backup so that I can move forward with my learning in safety. If anyone can guide me with the steps to do next I would greatly appreciate it. The videos and info I've seen has not been on point. Thank you

You will not be able to do a nandroid unless you are comfortable with tripping the KNOX counter. Cheers!

I'm not concerned about tripping Knox, I obtained the phone used. I was just looking for guidance as to what app or program I needed to use in order to make a system backup, the steps in sequence, what is the best approach. Since I used TowelRoot it did not delete or wipe my phone. So I assume if I am able to do a complete backup that I would then be able to try a Custom rom and or delete things like ANT without getting the "scary" warning that comes with it. I have Titanium Pro and TWRP on the phone now. Are these programs able to do a complete backup even if it trips Knox? BTW I backed up Knox and deleted it if that matters lol. Thank you very much for your help.
