[Q] Reboot while Titanium Backup - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everybody,
I have problems to backup my data with Titanium Backup. Everytime I try to Backup everything, my Phone reboots after backuping a few apps.
My Configuration:
ROM: Ramads Deodexed JVP
Kernel: speedmod-kernel-k15h-t21-300hz
MODs: SGSII_AOSP_Icons_TW4_XXJVP + GalaxySIILock_CMW3_XXJVP
anybody same problems, or an idea what can be wrong?
regards

Pretty sure this is because it needs to shut down system apps in order to back them up, what happens after the reboot? does it continue backing up? I may be wrong tho!

after reboot, it does nothing more, titanium backup has stopped there...
sometimes i have to clear cache and dalvik cache that everything is working fine after such an reboot... do you have an idea how i can backup my settings or how i can prevent this reboots?

Did any of that work now? Because I still have the same problem: batch back-ups will always make my phone reboot. Are there any other ways to back-up my phone?

For me the Problem was the TouchWiz 4 launcher I have used. Everytime the launcher get closed due less ram, the whole system freezes and I get reboots.
Solving the problem was as easy as installing another launcher. For me I use ZeamLauncher which is very fast and stable. With TW4 I ever had problems and I dont use it anymore..

Ah, I was using Go Launcher EX. Now I've already formatted my phone and decided to manually reinstall everything. But next time I'll try ZeamLauncher. Thanks!

Ok so I'm very new to this root stuff, and I've been playing with different looks in my phone which is running darchdroid 5.05. I tried to install a clear htc widgets that i found on here and ever since i put the htc clock on my home page it force closes launcher so i cant launch anything from my sense screens!! how do i undo this ??? or can someone show me where to get the original htc widgets to maybe override this faulty clock??? help please
EDIT and i just realized my keyboard is gone too, because i also tried to get a clear keyboard HELP now i'm in over my head!
You restore the nandroid backup that you should have done before flashing the .zip!

Try reflashing the ROM from recovery and then NANDROID..........
ok thanks i wiped everything and reflashed the darchdroid...
now before i did that i tried to restore a nandroid backup i made before i ever installed darchdroid and when it loaded up everything kept force closing on me..... i think it's because the data on my sd card is different... so now if i make a new backup am i supposed to choose nand +ext??
only if running apps2sd

Yes.. If your sdcard is partitioned then you do nano + ext..
And you could of just reflashed your rom on top of what you messed up.. It would of replaced the files you messed up. Since they werent anything special. Then if it didnt fix it, wipe everything.
If your sdcard is not partitioned and you dont use a2sd.. Then its most likely one of your applications faulty and is force closing everything. Back on 1.5 when i didnt use a2sd my policescanner app would force close my phone on reboot. I would delete it and then it would work again.

[Q] Market FC after nandroid restore

I took a nandroid backup of my CM6.1.2 ROM before trying out the CM7 nightly. I tinkered for about an hour and then decided to go back. I restored the nandroid backup and everything seems to be fine, except I'm getting the Market force-closing on me repeatedly. I've tried clearing Market data/cache and that doesn't seem to help.
Any ideas on why it might now be crashing, and how to get it back to functional again?
EDIT: Just following up, I tried booting back into Clockwork Recovery and doing an advanced nandroid restore, selecting the same backup, but data only. Everything was fine after the reboot. Maybe Clockwork just did a bad restore the first time round?

What version of the Marketplace are you running? I had this problem last week and was using 2.2.7... but it seemed that removing it and installing 1.82 fixed the fc's. I was getting a permissions error in logcat, tried a bunch of stuff including editing packages.xml, everything short of a full wipe, and I couldn't get anything. In the end, the only thing that fixed it was a full wipe and a reinstall of the rom.
I haven't tried with 2.2.10 or 2.2.11, but that might work too. Maybe someone else ran into this and they have some better steps...?
Edit: Just saw your edit... I'll have to try that out if there's a next time because that's one thing I didn't try, I only tried full restores.
I have the same problem with 2.2.7 on MCRv9. I'd been on Oxygen rc6, but the other day noticed that at some point I'd lost a few games and all of their backups. Luckily I have a nandroid backup of the lot on MCRv9 so I restored it and found that the games (but not their data) were missing there too. Bizarre, but I figured I could either grab the data from /data/data or reinstall from the Market and then back them up properly with Titanium.
No luck! I'm having this exact issue. I can stop the FCs with a Market data wipe, but all downloads then hang, and then FCs start again. I can fix the download problem with the MCR Market script, but then the download always fails at the end and the FCs start again.
Rather than re-restoring the data I'm going to try a different Market version. I installed 2.2.7 manually so it may be my own fault.
Had the exact same problem. I resolved it by flashing the older version of Gapps (20101114) and then flashed Pendo blue market. The blue colour looks better than the stock green, imo.

GingerVolt 1.3 Home screen

I am on Ginger Volt 1.3 and I find this to be an awesome stable rom. However, the home screen button is not working. I press it and nothing happens. When in an app it does not return to the home screen when you press it. Anyone have this issue and is there a resolve for this?
I have not had that issue or heard of anyone else having that issue....try wiping your phone (factory reset through CWM) and then reinstalling....if that still doesn't work then it sounds like a hardware issue with your phone...

I did that and I thought of the same thing, but when I reverted back to OEM software it worked. It's only when I put the rom in. Thank you for your feedback.

I re wiped and it worked, thank you.
awesome!

I have had this problem as well. Yes a reinstall of the rom works, if you wipe the system data, but I wonder why the problem exists at all. And it isn't really feasible to wipe your data everytime a problem occurs. And yes, I have titanium backup and can restore everything...but setting up my pages and tweaks and such...major PIA....

I've never has this problem but i don't believe you need to do a full wipe. Next time just try wiping cache and dalvik so you won't have to go through the pain of restoring everything.That's all I do when flashing a new gingervolt and it's worked great for me so far.
After going through a lengthy process to get my SIM card to work in going from Froyo/2.2.2 (thecubed's decrapified ROM + extra decrapification of my own) to GingerVolt 1.3, I decided to see if I could get away with not wiping all the data again this time.
Process went like:
Froyo Decrap -> Backup Froyo Decrap -> LGNPST Flash to V7 TOT -> Wipe -> GingerVolt 1.3 -> Wipe -> Restore Froyo Decrap (which had a bunch of apps and settings which I didn't want to re-do) -> GingerVolt 1.3 w/o data wipe
There were a couple of individual apps that I manually did a data wipe of. I think Gmail and ... I forgot the other. A few days now, so far no issues.

I believe the Roms only touch the apps and stuff in the /system folder. So if you have other downloaded apps I don't think you need to get rid of those. That's why I don't think you really need to do a full wipe when switching between roms. It's just recommended you wipe cache and dalvik.

[Q] Droid 4 CM10.1 Stuck at Boot

My phone will currently not boot bast the CyanogenMod boot screen.
I flashed my phone several months ago to CM10.1 It was the update that patched the "masterkey" bug. I have been using it daily since then with no problems.
Today, I turn my phone on, and it just hangs at the boot animation.
There were no significant changes since the last time it was powered on. I think I installed McPixel from the humblebundle, and uninstalled a game from the playstore called Krog. No setting changes of any significance.
I've tried booting into safestrape and deleting both the cache and the dalvik cache, neither has helped. My stock rom still loads just fine, but i had factory reset it quite a while ago. I do have a backup of the rom from about 40 days ago i can try restoring, but i would love a more nondestructive way to fix this.
Try booting into safestrap, wiping system, cache, and dalvik, then reinstall the ROM and gapps.

0.o wouldn't that be a LOT more destructive than just restoring the old backup?

Nope. You are not wiping data so all your apps, setting, etc will still be there.
the data itself will remain if you just wipe the system, cache and dalvik cache but be sure to reinstall the latest stable build of CM and gapps for it

ah gotcha gotcha...
unfortunately it didn't work.
for troubleshooting's sake, i went ahead and made a backup of the rom in it's non-working state.
i restored my old backup, it boots just fine.
restored borked backup (tested it, still won't boot), wiped cache/dcache, wiped system, installed cm-10.2-20130821-NIGHTLY-maserati.zip and gapps 20130812, wiped cache/dcache again for good measure, then reboot and waited 10 minutes, still won't pass boot logo.
so i figure someting's wrong with Data right? so i rebooted to safestrap and did a factory restore, then wiped cache/dcache, and still won't boot.
so now i'm going at it the opposite direction. restoring the working backup, restoring just the data from the nonworking backup, then upgrading CM/Gapps
rebooting.. and....
blank screen with full backlight. not so much as a CM logo.
i guess for now i am going to restore back to the old backup, update the rom, and go about reconfiguring, unless anyone has any more suggestions?

Yeah, definitely sounds like something in /Data. Only other possible option I can think of would be to use Titanium Backup. It has an option to "Extract from Nandroid backup". It's under the "SPECIAL BACKUP/RESTORE" options. I've never used that option before so I have no idea how or if it would work but might be worth a shot.

wonderful idea, unfortunately TB crashes when i point it at either backup.
buuut i did find Nandroid Manager * ROOT which looks like it might be working.
if you really wanna see if it is the data or not have you tried to
flash 10.2 or whatever you started out with... then restore -just-
the data to the freshly flash system and then do a wipe of all
said caches... I do that sometimes to get a fresh start on my
os itself.. works pretty well. Just do not restore the cache just
the data part. Or restore with MD5 checking... if it doesn't check
out then you know for a fact that the data partition in that specific
nandroid isn't any good :/

[Q] Fixing the boot loop without losing all the apps/data/settings (HD+)

I'm currently running the latest emmc nightly with trim kernel. While it's quite stable, I do get random reboots from time to time and the wifi is not very stable. So last night I tried downgrading it back to the 07/10 build, which is supposed to be the most stable, but it got stuck in the boot loop. I've made sure to flash the right Gapps and wiped the dalvik/cache, uncheck the launcher wallpaper checkbox, but it still won't boot. I then flashed the latest emmc nightly and it boots just fine. Has anyone managed to successfully downgrade to 07/10 and fix the dreaded boot loop problem without losing all the apps/data? I considered trying doing the Titanium app/data backup + flash 07/10 + factory reset + restore backup, but I'm not sure if that would actually work? Open to any suggestions, thanks in advance!
Anyone? Pretty please!

Titanium Backup Pro can extract apps+data from CWM & TWRP backups. Maybe you can make a nandroid backup of your /data partition, clean flash, and then try restoring through TiBa?
Also, I think restoring all of /data should be almost safe, as most of it is user-installed apps anyway. The only conflict would come from any system settings you've changed, which might conflict with an older builds.
