backup software for mteor? (freeware)

aloha!
I am looking for freeware to create a backup of my mteor data (specially all the applications I have installed)
Can somebody recomend something?
crizzli
Sprite Backup
I think sprite backup is not freeware
oh, sorry
i'm not saw "freeware"
AFAIK there is no freeware backup software for WM5
But i think you can export all registry hives with freeware reg editor
so you'll backup all your settings
then you can backup all your PIM data. Just copy *.vol files into the root of your phone. Or you can use rather soft (i can search one) for backup that data
or you can backup it via ActiveSync
And last (but not least backup your folders like Program Files
But this is not full backup
some of applications use windows folder and other system folders
so this applications failed after restore. so you must reinstall it (but your settings in the registry )
i think this is strange case for backup, but it is freeware backup

Titanium Backup and Restore?

How does this work? I have a full Titanium Backup and I remove a few Apps if I do Full backup again will my Removed Apps be totally gone in the Backup Folder or are they still there from Original Backup? If they are still in the Backup is there a way to get them out so if I need to restore the Removed Apps don't reappear on my phone?
Thanks
They will remain there.
To remove them you can either scroll to the bottom in Backup/Restore and select each one then hit "Delete" or Menu->Batch->"Delete backups for un-installed apps" then Menu->Refresh apps list
To batch restore apps without restoring specific ones Menu->Batch->"Restore all apps with data" then uncheck the apps you don't want to restore, and begin.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To MAKE SURE they are still there you need to HIT the menu button once you have opened up Titanium Backup, then HIT Preferences, scroll down to MAX BACKUP and change it from the default (1) to whatever hou want/need. I have mine set to three. This way it can save older versions of the appear. I have found that on occasion the newer version of apps sometimes have an issue so I go and use the previous version saved. This will also keep your uninstalled appear at the bottom with a line through them. You can usually just click on the lined through app and hit restore. Then choose either app or app+data. Also I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND the paid version. It will do the batch restore with one click of the restore appear+data. The free version will also batch restore them all but it goes through each app and you have to say okay each time for each app. Specially if you start trying out different rims every couple days like a lot of us do. Also the paid version (not sure.of the free version) let's you back it up to the external sd card. You just go to preferences, backup folder name, then type in external_sd/ in front of the TitaniumBackup that is already there and it will automatically change it to mnt/sdcard/external_sd/TitaniumBackup.
JUST MAKE SURE whenever you restore NEVER choose to restore system app and data. ONLY restore app+data or you will end up with force closes.

I do not have the paid version but I have a question about the free version. After I backup all the apps and system data, I removed a system application such as "My Files" which didn't cause any problems. If I try to click on the backed up (crossed off in TB) to restore it, I do not have the option to restore.
Is this normal or should I be able to restore a system application that I have backed up?
I've never restored a system app, and maybe that's a paid feature. If there isn't a simpler method, it's pretty easy to copy back in if you're running a custom rom.
Open the customrom.zip, copy system/apps/MyFiles.apk from it and put it in /system/app on the phone.
There are around 50 way to do that. Via USB copy the file to the phone and then use Root Explorer to copy it from /sdcard to /system/apps for example. If you don't see it again in the apps folder, reboot.
I never thought to open the custom rom zip file. thank you!
A tangential question
I've done the TiBu backup but don't see quickoffice in the backup file. Does anyone know why?

App Data

Hi, Im getting really interested in changing my rom to a Cyanogen updated rom however how can I save for example my password safe app and its data. I can Use asto file manager and save all my apps to my sd card, but what about all the data on the apps themselves. I have alot of information on my password save app which stores sensative information. I dont want to re-enter all the information again.
Thanks
Use Titanium Backup.
Does your password save app have an export function? I guess it would have to be password protected itself, but does it?
If it doesn't, you'll want to get Titanium Backup after rooting anyway. It's way better than apps like Astro at backing up, because it backs up apk, the market link (so it shows up in the Market > My Downloads after restoring), and it saves app data. Note: when changing ROMs, don't backup/restore "system data," only backup "user apps" (it will backup app data as well). Once you open Titanium Backup, press Menu > Batch > Backup all user apps.
I haven't tried it myself, but MyBackup Root basically offers the features of the paid version (one-click restore of all apps+data). It's just not as feature packed, but if you're just backing up for a ROM switch then it should do the job.
I would backup with both apps. Then when you have CyanogenMod, try restoring with MyBackup Root first. If it works, great. In case it doesn't for some reason you always have Titanium Backup.

Recommend on any app backup after installing a new rom do not restore system data only apps .

in addition to titanium pro astro file manager is also a good choice you can download it from market for free

titanium backup

I have installed titanium backup and should have permission to delete car home
But when i delete my phone only reboots 1time in I.P.V 2times and after reboot car home is still there in my list what to do
Hello!
You must mount your root-partition r/w.
You could use ES File explorer for this.
After that deleting apps with titanium backup should work.
Is Titanium in the granted list in Super User app?
If yes remove it the force a new Super User access authorisation.
