Even if your not planning to root your device you should always have it backed up. I’m personally using g cloud backup at the moment it backs up contacts, sms, logs , music , settings, videos mostly everything .
Good option if you are not planning to root your device
When we root our phone or update then backup is the first in rooting and you explained very well about taking backup i like it :)
Back ups are really important that’s why I always keep a minimum of 2 back ups in my microSD just in case a problem arises. I use Titanium back up and Astro but I will give your suggestions a try too! Thanks!

Heyy … I used Backup Caretaker ad it worked well for me … I backed up my phone and the items it allowed to backup were SMS, MMS, Contacts, Call logs, System settings, alarms and custom dictionary.
I used the Lite version and created the backup on my SD card but if anyone is interested in online backup they may use Pro version that gives the facility of scheduled backup as well.
i was using other app for backing up my data but i was facing some problem with it but this one seems to good..will surely going to use it…!!!!
