Backup extras e.g. SMS, call logs, Wifi access points, bluetooth configurations, etc.

It might be a little out of project scope but should be very appreciated since the users can fully depend on AM for Rom migration and won't have to use other third-party apps.

Maybe in a utility section somewhere in the app? Adding them to the main window would make things very complicated.

How about adding importing backup to this utility page? The settings page doesn't seem very appropriate for this.

I think the plan below works better with our philosophy than adding a separate utility page:

SMS/MMS Get default SMS/MMS app and backup SMS/MMS along with it. In some cases, it might not be possible to detect it automatically (or the user wants to set it manually). So, there should also be an option to set the default SMS/MMS app. For example, I use QKSMS and I want to back up all my messages with it because I do not like its back up method (unencrypted and insecure).

Call logs Similar to above.

Wi-Fi/Bluetooth: May be backup with Android settings. I am not yet sure how to handle this one yet.

This would also prevent the need to create a separate framework just for 4 or 5 additional customisations.
