I've been running CM7.1 off the sdcard for a long time and everything works great, except for one thing: I cannot run titanium backup pro. The free version works fine and I can do one backup, but every time I try to change the number of backups it says that that feature is only for the donated version. I paid for TBP for quite sometime and it worked on two other android devices, so I'm puzzled as to why it's not working. Could the problem be caused by the fact that I'm running CM7.1 off the sdcard?
Possible tell-tale sign: On the other devides where TBP does work, when I first fire up TB it says "checking for license", but on my NC it never did that.
Is there anyone else who can run TBP under CM7.1 off sdcard? I was going to email the developer but I thought I could check with other users on the forum first...
Thanks!
You downloaded your license from the market?

I can confirm that TB off uSD CM7 does work.
Are you on the latest version of the key?

I noticed that on my Froyo enabled HD2 every time I install a new build the market automatically installs the apps there were downloaded previously. Is there a way for this to be enabled on Captivate ROMs? If this has been asked and answered somewhere else, please let me know. Thanks.

You can use Titanium Backup to achieve the exact same thing.
Mine has always done that, maybe because I restore my Android ID. I flash my phone at least 2 times a week.
EDIT: Mis-read OP, my apps are not automatically installed but the Market seems to keep a history of FREE as well as PAID apps I had previously installed.
It may have to do with the product id. I know my aria did what you describe and I think the stock rom did as well. The froyo leaks mess up the android id and the efs folder. It may be responsible for our lack of that feature

Only ROM for the Captivate that's every done this for me is the Cyanogen 6.1 Beta I tried out a while ago. Apps immediately just started downloading lol.
I thought touchwiz ripped that feature out.
I'd also like to request this. Titanium backup is different.
Having the right android id # only had about 1/4 of my free apps be saved so that didn't work for me

Also had the same happening to me on Gingerbread. Prefer TiBu as I can restore my app data as well.

Not exactly the same thing. I have to install TiBu (which is in the market) if I have not created the zip file to install via ClockWork or if it is not in the ROM already.
Have you seen what I am referring to? It is a much better process because it fully automated; add your google account and it begins pulling down your apps (including TiBu).

I have two different devices, Samsung Captivate and an HTC HD2. I use the same google account on both. I recently installed a newer, different ROM, put in my google account and it began to download the apps that I have loaded on my Captivate. If it is ID related, it does not seem to be a problem between devices.
How can I ensure that I am using the same ID on my Captivate between flashes?

I have noticed that when I use TiBu to restore between flashes I get FC on app. I think this may have something to do with the Market ID option checked in TiBu. I have not been able to find a doc to explain these settings, so I end up having to redownload all my apps. As long as I am restoring on the same ROM I am good. However, if I try to restore between flashes (sometimes even between build updates) TiBu fails. Not sure why this happens.
I recently bought a Galaxy s i9003 and successfully rooted it, i installed titanium backup and tried backing up my apps, it backed up all my apps in the phone storage and not on the external memory card, suppose i do a factory reset on the phone or install a custom rom will all the backup date be erased from the phone memory?, is there anyway i can do the backup on the external memory ?or am i doing something wrong? please advice the right method
thanks
In Titanium Backup go to Preferences and select Backup Folder Name....add external_sd/ before Titanium Backup...that will save all your files to the external SD. You can also enable Dropbox backups as well from Preferences.

Assuming you are rooted to begin with, nope...factory reset does not affect the kernel, therefore you stay rooted

Is there any need of titanium backup pro or just free version is sufficient?

The pro version has some nice additional functionality, plus some biggies like the ability to backup your apps to Dropbox as well as to have multiple backups of the same app.
Beyond that, you can certainly get the job done with the free version, but for those apps we use alot and depend on, spending a couple bucks to support the developer is the right thing to do. Plus it helps ensure regular updates, makes the dev feel appretiated and gives the dev a leg to stand on when they try to justify all that time spent at the computer to their spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend.

Hope somebody can help me with this problem. I bought a game (Riptide). The game just worked fine. As I wanted to try Modaco MOD I did a Backup of my apps with Titanium Backup and flashed the ROM. To my surprise does the game not work on the mod. It complains that the License check failed
Has anybody a clue what to do? For now I switched back to Stock Rom and the game just works great...
Solution:
Make sure your Date and Time Settings are right...
Uninstall/reinstall from market.

Nah, that doesn't fix it, if it's the same problem i had.
I had the same problem a while ago, where the license check fails, and it happened even with game's bought after it started happening. I made a thread about it somewhere.
I just waited a while, changed ROM a few times and it eventually started working again. It started happening, and started working again on CM7 ROMs so i don't know if it's ROM related or not.
If the games work for you on stock ROM then it probably is
reinstall
clear the data and cache from Settings -> Application -> Manage applications
force close
and run it again
then try restoring data back from your titanium (Data Only)
Still not working. Clean made no difference. By the way i am using the modaco rom.

Hi Everyone,
I would like to know that when i upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3 would i lose all my games saved data?

Yes, you will lose your data almost every way you do it. If your phone is rooted you can backup all your app's with Titanium backup, the pro version allows you to batch backup everything and then batch restore everything including your saved games. The free version means you have to do them one at time. Hope this helps
Last time when i did it with Kies.. I dont remember losing anything except Msg, Contacts and phone records. Well i think i did not even have a game installed!
Did it only a week after buying the cell phone. Since then its very slow!
As shrapnel2 said there is always a chance of losing information when you upgrade either using Kies or Odin. Make a backup before you do anything.
Better safe than sorry!!!
I would definitely back it up. So after the update do i have to reinstall the games once again or they would be there? This is the first time i am doing it with the phone loaded with data that's why the questions!

They might be missing after the update but if you use Titanium Backup you can restore all of your games and the data to go with them in a single operation.
I see that Titanium Backup requires root. I have to root my phone.
When moving app data from froyo to gingerbread the data can often cause conflicts, so regardless of wether you backup or not my advice is not to restore data, but many have got away with it, it really comes down to an app by app scenario, and yes, titanium needs root to backup data

Yeah i got my phone rooted. Used the SuperOneClick Root App.
Now since you say that, even Titanium Backup tool is not fool proof to back up the data and restore it on to Gingerbread, you have put me in a lot of dilemma!
I have a few games in to which i have put in months of effort and patience, and i dont want to start playing all over again! Especially a game called Islanders!!
well at the end of the day it is up to you.
I always like to be up to date with my firmwares but if you are happy with Froyo and are that concerned about losing your saved game info you might be better off staying where you are...
That is the problem! Even i would like to stay up to date. But this data portability issue is something that is bothering me. I'll give Titanium back up a shot and see what it does. If it doesn't work i'll be giving it pretty bad review on the market!
coultdnt he just make a NANDROID and the unroot, upgrade, root and advanced restore data

Hi All,
I've recently just came back to android after a hiatus with iOS, and I've installed the monxdified ROM and was hoping to try out the iHackers ROM. I have about 15gb of apps (some of them linked with link2sd) and was wondering if there was a relatively simply way to migrate my apps between fresh installs of Roms? Thanks!

I'd say Titanium Backup. The free version should do, but restoring using the free version is a big pain if you have a lot of apps. I honestly don't know how Titanium Backup works with link2sd, you'd probably have to manually set that up every time you install a new ROM. The paid version of Titanium Backup can batch restore all your backed up apps without any problems whatsoever.
Maybe someone else here knows if there's an easy way to maintain your link2sd settings.
