where is the backup my settings function on this phone? I thought it's supposed to be under Privacy settings. Any ideas?
I don't believe that you can do that until FroYo, if you're running stock or any other Eclair build, then you won't be able to unless you grab a third party app from the market or the interwebz...

I am really enjoying to try different custom Roms.
But everytime when I flash to JF6 and get new Roms, I have installed all my applications and email accounts again and again.
Is there any way to carry over?

Free app on market titanium backup. This will back up your apps, I would not suggest emails or any system data. It will save your apps and their settings. Once again though, no system data as this changes from rom to rom and restoring it can cause issues.
If you need a quick walkthrough pm me

You can also use the free version of Astro File Manager to backup your apps. It worked really well for me, but it doesn't backup private apps.
I recently installed CM7 and restored my apps using Titanium Backup (premium). Most of the apps do not show up in Market->My Apps as Installed. Some of them appear after I have upgraded them using App Brain.
I have tried wiping the phone and starting from scratch, clearing data on Market and on Google Framework, running Fix Permissions in Rom Manager, running Market Doctor in Titanium Backup.
The only thing I haven't tried is wiping and letting Android re-download all the apps. I don't want to do this until I've exhausted all other options.
This started about a week ago (around the time the web market was released). I'm not sure about the exact date (whether it was when I installed CM7, upgraded to #36, or when the market was released).
Bumping. Still having this problem.
If you search for an app that's installed (but not in My Apps), does the Market show it as installed?
You can try using Titanium to restore Market links for apps that are missing, so that'd be worth a go.
Must admit though, whenever my Market isn't showing everything, clearing it's data always sorts it.
Seeing as you've had this problem for several days, I would go ahead and fully wipe as with a little preparation, it should only take 45 minutes or so, depending on Android. Hopefully you have a stable Nandroid, restore it, then I would:
Apps that I've highly customized (ADW, LauncherPro, GentleAlarm, etc) I would export their settings using their built in Export functionality
Go ahead and fully wipe, sometimes it takes a couple wipes
Flash ROM, sign in & let Android install the apps
Restore data only using TB, toggling just the apps that absolutely need it & that didn't have built-in export functions (not ADW, LP, GA, etc). If the app doesn't have a lot of settings, avoid restoring its previous data to avoid unnecessary problems
Once the phone calms, begin importing settings that were exported
In the past when I was messing with ROMs I ran into this problem and just loaded up Appbrain and let it sync. After that the market showed my installed apps.
But as said, Titanium is supposed to be able to do this.. Although I never saw it actually work.
SOLVED
Had the same problem.
Just go to my apps->market->clear data->stop service
run again market and sign in -> voila you have all your apps listed
I think most people posting in this forum having this problem probably tried that already. ;-)

Hi all,
Can I do a titanium backup of my apps in one android version (Eclair or Froyo) and restore them in another different (Froyo or Gingerbread)???
In that case, it will keep the settings of each app or simply we'll keep the app itself??
Thanks!
TB allowed me to restore my apps and settings moving from Eclair to Froyo. Obviously, you'll need to root your device and install TB first. There may be some issues associated with restoring system data if the app does not exist in the new version.

Thanks!!!
Another question... General settings can also be backuped with TB through different versions?
(I mean wifi passw, gmail account, etc...)
Depends on the system app of that rom. Don't worry about incompatibility. If the system app is of a different version, TB won't attempt to restore the data for that app.
Which stock apps and system files are safe to freeze or uninstall for nook hd+ ?
I want to use titanium backup to freeze some useless apps/service to release more usable memory
and is it possible to enable "full" setting menu ? It seem missing many setting on stock rom 2.1 (compare to my other android devices), such as change the hostname, force o enable GPU for all 2D app ...etc
the "shelf" function on stock rom home screen is nice, so i want to keep my stock rom.
thx
You cannot uninstall any system apps on the HD+. If you do the system will reset itself and erase all your data. It is part of the B&N lockdown features.
But you can go to settings and apps and "disable" a system app. It is similar to the freeze function in TB. I do not have a list of apps ok to disable.
And there is no way to expand the stock settings, what you see is what you get.

I should use CM10 on my nook hd+ to enable all setting since cm10.1 is working fine on my old nook color
I have tried to insert "device_hostname" to settings.db (secure) on PC, but nothing changed after reboot
btw, any replacement app can provide a "Shelf" on home screen which similar to stock Home screen ?
Hello. I was wondering how to restore all my apps. I want to be able to log in with my account so all my settings such as homescreens, apps and setting are restored. Also that all apps i had installed are automatically downloaded into my device
