Desperately trying to keep my profile

I'm about to factory reset my internal SD card for an update and I really don't want to lose my profile.

The Copy Profiles addon has not worked for me, and I cannot find enough information about whether Titanium backup will actually save the profile (I do have Backup app external data enabled).

I can't even seem to find much info on the location of the profile or other methods to copy it with adb either.

Please, can you provide any options for me?

Profiles are not transferable between devices. Even if you backup the current profile it is near impossible for a user to replace the data. The data is stored in a different format than desktop Firefox.

SOLUTION - Titanium Backup DOES keep your firefox profile, just make sure "Restore app external data" is ticked in preferences. I'm not sure if it matters but I had it ticked when I restored so it might.
