For ssh see [1], then scp would also work (also rsync).

You could write a shell script for that :)
For adressbook you could use syncevolution
$ syncevolution --export - backend=evolution-contacts 
database=system-address-book
Camera images are one the file system, in 
/home/phablet/Pictures/com.ubuntu.camera (and/or in /media/phablet/[Your SD 
Card]/Pictures/com.ubuntu.camera). Sounds should also be available on the 
file system, but I dont knoe which sounds you mean?
For call log & SMS, see [2] :)
