Couldn't find anything after searching..
I updated to 893, used forever root and stayed rooted. Using titanium backup i backed up all system data before i did any of this.
Now after a successful upgrade i decided i wanted my old texts back for work, as well as my work email account set up. I went to titanium back up and batch restored all system data.
Now, I went to system and it showed i was still on 893, but is everything else 893? do i get the perks? The longer battery life, no longer having to airplane mode for data, etc? or did i basically return, but not return to 886 by doing this?
thanks for your time
I don't see how Titanium could install a radio or ROM just by doing a restore. The restore is done in the gui environment and cannot do these things, pretty sure. It may just be a bug, I have installed Liberty ROM after i did the .901 update and its radio shows .893. Folks around here tell me to disregard what the OS is reporting as the radio is patched but does not report correctly.
Thank you for your reply

I had an issue where google talk kept force closing on opening. I'm rooted so I thought it was a good idea since I backed up everything via titanium backup when I first switched over to uninstall it via Titanium, then reinstall it. Of course now for whatever reason titanium doesn't give me the ability to restore the application. Anyone know how to fix this? I think I just need the google apps apk but I don't know where to get the most recent package of them. I had google talk 1.3 installed and its different for froyo. I can always go back to my original nandroid backup if its not possible but I'd lose all the customizations and app installs/uninstalls since. Thanks for the help.
Flash the rom you have installed again.
"There was a problem with authorization. Please wait while we reset your device"
OK - I have a Nook that was purchased at 1.00. I registered with BN.
Then I used NookColor_v1.1.0_r2.zip to root it.
I installed Market and got ADB to work. Life was great.
I think life started turning south when I went to the BN marketplace and purchased a book. In the middle of reading it, I got the dreaded "There was a problem with authorization. Please wait while we reset your device".
Fortunately, I had backed up my ROM using ROM Manager. So, I re-installed my ROM and it wasn't long before I got the message again. I feel like I'm now in an endless loop of resetting my device. I'm not sure how to get out of it. I've read several threads on this subject that simply leave me confused at this point. I'm looking for guidance. I LOVED my rooted Nook Color while it lasted. I don't like it stock. I'm looking for help.
I've been rooted on 1.0.1 since Christmas, and shortly after I first rooted, I had this happen to me too. There were others affected as well. Back then, we didn't have the recovery image, so I just set everything back up by hand. Since then it hasn't happened to me.
I haven't dug further, but I would guess that there is something that B&N doesn't like in the rooted image, but after a reset, it was happy again. Again, this was with my 1.0.1 root and an earlier rev of Autonooter, but this may be a way out of the loop you're in.
I had the same problem and assumed that it was because BN authorization puts a file on your NC that is date sensitive and if you do a restore (I was using titanium backup) and put an older file in place it will trip this reset scenario. I did a reroot with autonooter 3.0 and restored everything but any BN apps or data and the problem is gone.
Same thing just happened to me too. Going to restore and re-root later today.
I just went through the same problem as well. Tried out Nookie Froyo on emmc. Liked the Nook stock interface better. Tried restoring via CWM and get the "There was a problem with authorization. Please wait while we reset your device" error. Tried it twice and got the same error twice as soon as it connects to wifi.
Ended up having to flash back to stock and start the rooting process all over again. And now it seems to be fine.
Happened to me two weeks ago and I kept restoring. That's the problem, when I restored back to an older rom. Just root it again, restore the apps manually by dling off the market or through Astro. Don't restore the whole thing through CW. It worked for me because I haven't had the problem since then.

It happened to me as well funny thing was that I had a 1.1.0 never rooted Nook Color and I rooted with AutoNooter 3.0.0 and it happened within 24 hours. There was no restoring backups or anything. Any ideas?

Again, my guess is that there is something in the rooting process that trips the reset. If you allow the reset to proceed without restoring the whole rom (Titanium restores should be fine) then you likely won't see it again. It's a little tedious, but should be ok... I've been running rooted for over a month with 1.0.1, and aside from the first reset, it's been smooth sailing.

I allowed it to reset but when it came back I was missing several crucial applications such as gmail, the android market and youtube. The rest (that are included in the root) were there. But I was lost without those applications and believed that a full rom reset was needed. Would there have been another way?
Using Titanium Backup, backup only User apps and data. Do not backup System apps and/or data. When you get back up from the reset and re-root, only restore User apps and data.
Maybe you can restore the ROM and backup just the User apps and data. Remove the SDcard. and then let it reset, or reset it to stock yourself. Get it back to how you want the base, root, install TiBu then restore your User apps and data.
Shameless plug: if you haven't already, buy Titanium Backup. It can be a life saver, or at least a sanity saver. I have no affiliation with the author, just a fan of the program.

Hello, I have been experiencing a weird issue with restoring apps with Titanium Backup Pro that I have never had before. My captivate had Firefly 3.0 on it and apps were being backed up every night. My phone started freezing and restarting, so I flashed to stock, master cleared, then reloaded Firefly 3.0. I use Titanium backup pro to restore the apps it had backed up, and it seems to work fine. Once they are all done, I can access them and use them, whatever.
The issue arises after I restart the phone; some of the apps just go away from the app drawer. They are not on my sd card, so that can be ruled out. For instance, Angry Birds got restored fine, and I could play it until I restarted the phone, then it just went away. Same with Flikie HD, and many others. I look in the application manager and some apps just have the generic android icon and their names are in the format "com.android......". These are the apps that will not work.
This has never happened to me before and there seems to be no rhyme or reason for it. There is no pattern for what apps it does or does not restore. Also, unknown sources are allowed and Titanium Backup says the backup files are fine, no errors at all. I have gone through the process of flashing to stock, master clearing, reflashing quite a few times now, but the same thing every time, with the same apps it seems.
Thanks for taking the time to read my long problem, but I wanted to be as descriptive as possible. Any ideas would be greatly appreciate.
Having the came problem with Apex 8.1. Any ideas?
Unfortunately, no. I just ended up taking note of which apps screwed up on restore, and then just got them from the market. Lost the data that accompanied them, but oh well.
TIBU update
I just had this same problem but had luck by first updating TIBU from the market. Then uninstall the offending app(s) and re-install from the market. After install, just restore data only through TIBU, and voila! Worked for me but as usual, ymmv. This happened to my Angry Birds and was not very happy to lose my save game data but it all worked out in the end. Hope this helps.
PS - was also on Apex 8.1...

This was a known issue when installing a ROM with an incompatible version of CWM. Just verify which version of clockwork mod you have and what the flashable .zip requires to load properly. May or may not be it, just figured I'd throw it out there.

Huh, I never got the option to reload only the data, it was weird. After I installed the apps from the market, the option to restore the app or data was gone totally.

I don't think that is the issue, thanks though. I have restored apps on Firefly 3.0 with the same CWM with no issues, so I doubt that is it. I appreciate the reply though.
Rooted (stock) VZW moto x
A couple days ago my phone app started force closing immediately upon opening it every time. It doesn't work at all now. I am rooted, but I rooted weeks ago and this just started yesterday or the day before. I haven't messed with anything. The only thing that I have done is download apps from the play store... None of which 'should' mess with the phone app.
I have since downloaded an alternative dialer app which works, but I'd rather use stock. I tried rebooting, tried clearing the app's cache and data (in system settings - apps) and no luck.
Any help would be great. Either finding/fixing the issue or a way to reinstall the stock phone app? I am rooted and I believe write protection is off, which I had to do to install busybox. Thanks!

What version are you on. 4.2.2 or 4.4
There is a couple things i would try i have had to do it with other phone specially my old S3
1. restore from a backup when i the dialer was not FC
2. try reinstalling the dialer from the APK located here device/system/prvi-app/dialer.apk
3. pull the dialer.apk out of the correct stock ROM or recover img and replace the one located in the above folder and install it.
but to be honest option one is normally the best way to go and the fastest.
Thanks. I'm on 4.4. I'm going to try option 2 when i get home. I'm not exactly sure how to restore a backup on this phone yet being that i dont really have a recovery.
Edit: option 2 installed ok, but still force closes
let me get you the .apk from the restore img give me about a hour to download it and get you a link
also do you know how to use titanium backup if so i would install it and back up all user apps and data because you might have to do a factory reset. but if you backup with TB you and restore everything right back to ware you was
Hello all
I was wondering if anyone has tried doing a restore with helium backup on n yet
Anytime I try, I see that the restore gets to 100% but then just sticks. It doesn't error or say that it is done but stays at 100%. If I cancel or reboot the application and even just the data doesn't seem to be available. I have tried restoring a few different apps that were backed up that all restored find in mm and none seem to work. Any advice on how to get restores to go through would be greatly appreciated.
Backup+ seemed to work unfortunately you have to pay for sms, wifi, calls and system app backups
I'll have to give that a try then. First need to figure out root for it.
