Okay My nexus one got Dust under the screen and The power button has become unresponsive in the past few weeks so i call htc for a swap..
Now i need to know How to get all my Info saved on my old Nexus to my new nexus one..
I have 2.2.1 Rooted with titanium backup installed (ive never used it before).. is that the only Program i need to do the Job...
Is it as simple as Backup use titanium to old nexus sd card then rooting the new nexus one and then importing the back up with titanium??
Titanium will back up your apps and data, so you can restore on pretty much any rooted ROM.
Alternatively, you could do a full nandroid (either through recovery, or through ROM Manager). This will back up everything in your OS, including ROM and kernel. If your new phone is SLCD, older ROMs may not be compatible.

Im getting confused so i just want to clarify these apps, If i flash my captivate using ODIN doesnt all the files get deleted? so I don't get it how can you use these apps to recover any of files if its deleted during the procedure.
Titanium backup is for apps and settings. ROM Manager backs up your ROM and your current setup, it is also used to flash ROMS and other mods and CloclworkMod Recovery is a part of the app. Get the paid version of both apps, not expensive and you will be using them often.
so if i buy these 2 and flash my phone using odin they will stay on my phone?

No. No apps stay on your phone after flashing. When you use these two apps, they store files on your internal SD card. This does not get touched when you flash a new rom. Therefore after you flash a new rom, just go to the market, redownload the apps, and restore what you've backed up.
I got a new question guys I backup my stock ROM the one that comes on factory but rooted and im currently running cog 2.2 beta 9.1.2. My question is if i restore backup will it restore to my old 2.1 stock with root?

I have Rom manager and did a Rom backup.
How do I restore my phone?
I did something and my phone will not come on.
It will get the AT&T world phone screen, the 3G splash and even play the sounds

Doing the volume up/down and power take me to recovery screen,
did reinstall package chose update.zip but no luck.

i love it when people say this. it shows exactly how much effort they are willing to put into fixing the stuff they screw up.....
Hi guys, all of us usually makes a nandroid backup right after we root up phone and install ROM manager (w/ the htc sense still in).
So i have that original backup made. I was wondering, do we make a nandroid backup after we have installed the cyanogen mod? This is so incase anything happens - I can just go back to the state when i first installed my mod and not any further back. I have not heard any suggestions of doing this previously leading me to believe it will not work.
Any input is greatly appreciated !
=)
Well you really dont need one of when you first install the rom, as you can do a "factory reset" in recovery to get back to that point (rom with no apps). You should make a backup as soon as you get all your apps set up, then every few days after that, deleting older ones as newer ones are made.
It certainly won't HURT to make an immediate backup of your Sprint ROM after rooting. That's what I did. Then install the Cyanogen 6.1 mod, and enjoy it. I upgraded my sdcard to 8GB, for more room, and have probably 6 different Nandroid backups , at various points of my progress. Probably overkill, but it's not much of a chore either.
Some people might call it "fun".
Yeah, you don't *have* to do it ever, and *can* do it whenever. It just makes sense to do it before you're about to flash some new stuff, which is why that's all you see.
You can always move them off the sd card and onto your computer too. I have like 2-3 gigs worth of them on my couple comps. (You know, in case I have to go back to how my phone was on 7/15/2010 just before I flashed....something, 40 flashes ago.)

Same here. I got little nandroid bastards running around all over the place. Got em on at least 3 pc's that I know of maybe 4. Oh, and let's not forget the ones on my sd card.

Make a Nandroid once you get things up and running. If you ever need to wipe because a problem is occurring you can just restore the Nandroid and skip the setup process.
Lovely people at Vodafone UK have allowed me to upgrade 6 month early for no extra cost to the Samsung Galaxy S2.
Was going to wait for Nexus Prime but hey, you know. It's waiting isn't it?
Going to run both phones as I love the Nexus.
My question is this, I currently have all my Nexus apps on an ext4 partition running Darktremors a2sd.
If I use titanium backup to do a full backup, can I then install titanium on a rooted Galaxy, transfer the backup files over and restore all missing apps using Titanium?
If not, is there an easy way to move apps without having to redownload them all?
Am currently running latest MIUI ROM.
Many thanks
I've done this with my wifes G2 - MT4G switch... No problems...
Hello guys,
I bought SGS1 a while ago and changed some roms it was annoying losing my apps then my friend told me to use titanium backup it was more annyong cuz i had to backup one program at a time
then i heard about Nandroid Backup , so my question is:
if i change ROM lets say from MIUI to Darky or something and i used Nandroid Backup, all my apps will be there after i restore?
Your phone will shift back exactly where it was when you nandroid backed up ! And any progress from their will be lost !

Its backup whole rom with apps...tge best possible solution is u have to use titanium backup pro it make a complete backup of apps....i thinkn u r using some free version pf titanium thats why i makes problem.

Titanium Backup offers the option to backup all your apps at the same time, in case you didn't know. This may be only for the paid version though, I'm not sure. But considering it's the most useful app I've come across, it's definitely worth the money.

Actually if you try to restore a nandroid backup after switching to cm7/miui, your phone simply wont work as the file systems are completely different.
To go back to a Samsung ROM from miui you would need to flash a stock Samsung ROM via odin, and THEN restore the nandroid.
Anyway, beyond that remember the following...
Titanium backs up apps and app data, use after changing ROMs to regain apps.
Nandroid takes a snapshot of the entire ROM, use in case of problems to repair your phone.

Correctly said rschenck!!
Basically if you are on CM7 and want to give a try to MIUI just make a NANDROID backup for full ROM backup and try MIUI ,if you don't like it then flash back CM7 first and then restore the NANDROID backup!!
when it comes to Titaniuim backup , it backs up your app data,freezes them and the apps you want (only in pro version) on any ROM and restore back after flashing any other ROM, if you are on free version then you must select manually which apps to backup that's a pain in the ass !!
Use these according to your requirements....and dont ever restore one rom's nandroid with another as the Kernels,Filesystems,Modems,Bootloaders are entirely different and that could mess up your phone !!
i would prefer NANDROID over Titanuim !!
Thanks guys for this wonderful explanation...just one more query:
I'm currently using samsung Stock rom, CF root kernel, with lagfix(ext4), and some "framework" tweaks..and am thinking of trying CyanogenMod. So if i do a Nandroid backup now, and later decide to come back from cyanogenmod, can i just use Odin to get to ANY Stock rom so that the partitions, file systems, modem etc get back to a similar old format, OR do i need this exact Stock rom version, Kernel, lagfix etc before i can restore the nandroid?
is "kernel" included in a Nandroid backup? also, are Types of filesystems included (or "Lagfix" has to be repeated)?
Hi all
After smashing the screen on my Note i am getting a new one on the insurance, well i am when they decide to deliver it!!!
just want to know if it will be ok to root and restore my backup from the old phone?
i was running criskelo v9.1 at the time with speedmod kernal i think
big time
Are you talking nandroid restore? If so choose advanced restore and restore system and data only this will restore the rom and your apps anything else might cause issues, like restoring old imei and stuff.
Or you could extract certain things from the nandroid using titanium backup or similar app

i was using cwm for my backs/restores before and i desperately need my notes and phones off the old backup.
wouldnt the imei coarse problems?
you will get all your notes back with the data restore.
It might be safe to restore the whole nandroid but i wouldnt advise it, Personally ive never tried so hopefully someone who has can confirm ?
your imei from your old not wont replace the new one, But it could modify it and leave you with the samsung generic one.
thanks for the help, hopefully i should have the phone by saturday and get testing....
