Will batch work on the TB free version?

If I remember correctly - in free version you can batch backup, but you can't batch restore, or the batch restore is limited speed.

When you batch restore with the free version, you have to confirm each one. Fun.

Menu > Batch > Backup all user apps + system data : is there any difference between this and a nandroid backup? i mean does it make an image with EVERYTHING you have on your phone?

No it doesn't make an image of everything on the phone like a nandroid backup

A nandroid backup backs up the system, data, cache, and a few other things like ext and recovery depending on how you set it but a titanium backup just backs up apps and data (which are on the data and cache partitions).

You can also create an update.zip to put in your recovery folder and flash that way too. You can set a schedule to back up new, new versions or all. IMHO, pay the money. It has helped me in several instances. You can convert system to data or vice versa, un/attach apps to market and my favorite is you can clean your Dex right from the app.

Somewhere way back I thought folks were having issues restoring System with TB and recommended just doing apps/data--
Right or Wrong?
I like MyBackUp Pro as a quicker (non-nandroid) bu of system/sms/mms/call logs/home screens/settings etc

Well, the issue is that some of the restored settings were conflicting with what was in there. If you restore system back to the same version (of CM or Android), then it should be problem free. But if you are restoring between nightlies of CM or major releases of stock, then options may have changed and restoring *can* cause conflicts that result in funky operations or bootloops. This doesn't happen all the time, but it has happened enough to me that I don't recommend it.
My recommendation is to just backup all your apps and app data (I also include TB's backup of wifi access points, bluetooth pairings, google accounts, call logs and sms messages). It really doesn't take too long to go and check all your settings. Plus it gives you the opportunity to see what new features were added.
And in all honesty, I am not sure MyBackup Pro would be any different in the above... both just backup the data and restore it. I think if one were to cause an issue, the other one would as well.

Thanks for info bass,
I never restore system with TB, only backup/restore apps--no issues
I started using My BackUp before rooted, so as to have a bu of things if root went wrong. Just kept using it
Never had an issue restoring system with My BackUp, even after a month of nightlies
Main thing I like it for is Home Screens--saves time after fresh flash

That is definitely a benefit to using a 3rd-party launcher. I use ADW EX and everything for that app is saved in the app data, so as soon as I restore the app I am back to normal (well, except for my widgets and the background, but there are only two widgets that I use). But I do definitely sympathize on not wanting to redo all your settings. I hate it when I forget something simple like changing the wifi back to never turn off.

Agreed--
I use ADW with CMN's but not EX. Haven't looked real close at its restore capabilities. But, My Back Up does CM/Sense/MIUI restores with Home Screens with no problems
Just comfortable with it--

titanium backup restored my adw ex just fine minus the widgets.

thank you i was looking for that.

[Q] nandroid restore in different rom

totally noob here and i did lots of google'ling
i have to 2 nandroid backup file one i did while i was in stock 2 months ago the other one when i was in cognition 2 weeks ago both done in rom manager app
now i m using MikeyMike01's Doc modified rom (build 18) i tried to just to restore the data part of my latest backup in cwm recovery, like i did when i was running Di11i's Darkyy's Raw Steel, but now the restore messed up my phone and i had to re-flash my rom
is there a way to restore my latest nandroid backup in my current rom?

you need to be using Titanium Backup for your app backups. Nandroid is an image of your configuration, much like a system restore in windows (to make a loose comparison)

[Q] How to restored data after rooting O2x?

Hi guys,
i've just instal CM7 nightlies on my O2x, the question is how can i restored all of my data that have been back up in cwm such as my contact and calendar event?
cheers

You don't.
You need to use something like Titanium Backup for that.

Thanks rusty!
Oo..so right know i need to start from scratch right?

Right now, yes.
Or you could restore your CWM backup, use a backup app, flash CM7 then restore via an app.

AppExtractor can do this, restoring:
- Contacts
- Wifi Settings
- SMS/MMS
- Apps and their Data
- Bookmarks
From any CWM backup files.
Write to the author for Calendar, he is very reactive.
See in Market
The most simple way to restore Calendar/Contacts is to use 'the cloud' google gmail sync, or dedicated backup features in launchers (don't remember in LG Launcher, but in other launchers/home you can backup contact etc)

For contacts and calendar, I would recommend you to save it by default to your Gmail account, whenever you flash a new rom it will sync automatically.
I am using the following for backups.
1. Call log backup & restore
2. SMS backup & restore
3. Titanium backup

Try and restore your CMV backup with Titanium.
I haven't tried it yet, but it should work

This used to be true Rusty, but not anymore. The latest version of Titanium Backup can now restore both apps and data from CWM-backups. Very handy.

I must admit, that will be a proper useful feature.

[Q] Batch move data apps to the rom and batch restore apps into the rom

I love my HD2 and i always flash it~
In order to increase speed and avoid widget Disappear of A2SD+, I put a lot of common apps into ROM by using Titanium Backup.
But after I install the New ROM，i need to restore them one by one.
In Titanium Backup batch function, System apps won't get restored in Batch. Only system settings + data will get restored in batch.
I mean can we batch backup system/app and restore(include changed data) to system/app ???
Is there another backup software can batch data apps move to the rom As Well As batch restore apps into the rom? Thank you.

if there is a rom where a fullwipe is needed, then you will get many fc's if you
restore a nandroid data.
but i'll give you the answer:
make a simple backup in cwm and go to advanced restore, there you can choose data

one of the easy way but still you can also try use ultimate backup from market, free and just use it to backup all aplications that you are installing/using on one rom, and when you flash another rom, just use it to reinstall them. The free version all you need to do is confirm manually all installs

How to perform a complete backup for ROM changes:
(0. Root your system if you are on stock Samsung firmware)
1. Backup your apps and their data with TitaniumBackup (click "Backup/Restore", click checkmark icon in upper right corner, select "Backup all user apps"). Do not backup system apps/data unless you have a good reason.
2. Backup your SMS with SMS Backup & Restore
3. Backup your call logs with Call log Backup & Restore.
4. Export your contacts to a .vcf file or sync them to your google account.
Your internal and external SD cards will not be touched when flashing ROMs so they do not require backup.
