My SGS is rooted, using Sempahore kernel. I recently flashed the new JVU rom and backed-up some apps before flashing using Titanium Backup.
After the flash i wanted to recover my games (Asphalt6) but when i launch the game, it keeps asking me to download another 155MB, and it doesn't bring me to my saved game where i had all my stars. It just starts from 0
All i did was open TB - goto backup/restore - click Asphalt 6 - click Backup!
3 files are maded in my titanium backup folder (biggest file +-6MB)
Do i have to set some settings to backup the saved game?
So i can learn for my next flash that i wont loose my saved games from Asphalt6 and GTA3 again..
Thanks
Did you restore the data after flashing?

Yes, ofcourse.. I have tried every method. First installes Asphalt from market, downloaded all files, en then restored (data/app/data+app) via TB
Removes everything, en only restored data+app via TB, then it asked me to download extra files.
Nothing worked. 0 stars..
But maybe i did the backup wrong, or you have to put some extra settings, i was looking in the setting from TB and checked some extra now.
I just want to know how to do it right, so when i will flash again, i don't lose my saved games again..

Hi,
It's bit old thread, however i'll post in case someone will have similar question...
In Titanium Backup you would need to go to settings and change the max size of the app data allowed to be backed up, or to choose to save data always, despite of it's size.
I don't remember default value, but its rather low, like 32 Mb or similar, larger data packs are simply skipped from backup process and only APKs are available when restoring those.
You can find the setting by going to:
Preferences -> Backup app external data

New app: system app backupper, it allows you to backup system app and restore them when you want.
This app is created to make you able to restore system apps on a custom rom that cannot contain them.
Hope this could help cyanogen and the whole comunity.
ATM I don't know if it works for app2sd users. You can try. If not I'll update the app to be app2sd compatible.
Maybe it will cause Force Closes if you restore NON NEEDED system app to a different rom

wheres the app?
on the market?
*confirmed* app is on the market
Hope author doesnt mind me posting the apk
here it is:
the app is good but can use a select all button, manually selecting a bunch of the apk files is annoying
I can not find this app in the market. What's the app's name?
The apk will not install it say the app could not be installed using apk installer
If you're using app posted in this thread you have to' change extension to .apk
@stefan.buddle I'll include "select all" into the next version
phone crashed while did backup
@Spon4ik Can you provide me a log?
this might become an app included in barebone ROMs
it say The apk will not install it say the app could not be installed using apk installer
im on cm4.0.4 and yea i unzipped it i know how to install apk it jsut wont install
It is build for android 1.6 (donut)
I can't find the app on the market
Maybe you don't run donut. This app is compiled for android 1.6
Hmmm havne't seen too many success stories. I hope this is figured out, cause it will be ESSENTIAL with the bare bones ROM. Keep everyone posted with the success at getting this working.
Try yourself. Backup a system app, then delete it, then restore it. Tell us if it is working
So far was able to install and make a successful back up. Haven't tried a restore yet but will see in a minute.
Edit: Seemed to work for me. Backed up the email app then deleted it. Then I did a restore and seemed fine to me. One thing I would like to see is the ability to name and pick which backups we can restore instead of the last one we did. Other than that seems good to me.

Are you using app2sd?
What do you exactly mean with "it is working but not for sd?"
Found This App on XDA Portal today. Havent tested yet but im about to.
EDIT: I tested with google skymap, I set the app to install to internal storage and it stil installed to sd. Although the option to move to phone was now open and worked! I dont think that option worked before. I could be wrong

not certain, give feedback.
I tested with google skymaps because i know it likes to install to sd with froyo. So I set it to install to internal memory before installing skymaps and it still installed to sd. Although it did open up the option to move to phone in application settings and that worked!!
I dont think that option worked before installing this app. Could be wrong
I tried the tool also.
After setting the option to install to SD I installed the IMDB tool and PicSay.
Both gave the error 'Application was not installed'. When I switched it to internal memory, they installed just fine.
However I don't see the option to move a program. I'm looking in Settings>Application settings>Manage applications and then selecting a tool. The 'Move to SD card' is not available, not for the old tools I installed as for the both tools I did after installing this setinstalllocation tool.
Any bright ideas?
The SD card is formatted with several partitions to make it all run so I don't know why it won't work.
by default isnt the .apk designed to install in certain locations either NAND or SD. depending on where the programmer desires to have it put?
I've been using this for some weeks and it's just great.

Can you give any examples of programs you used it for and to which location you moved it?
ok, i have searched and have seen 1 other thread like this with the same problem, but its in the Facinate forum, so i dont know if what was aid on there applys to the Galaxy s. but basically, when i go to back up my current rom, it comes up with a message like this:

what was said in the fascinate forum is that i need to flash CWM with odin for it to work properly. is this correct? and if so, how do i go about it?
thanks and sorry for being a dumbass if this is stupidly obvious.
Oliver
P.S im using hardcore's speedmod k12h 500hz kernal if that makes any difference to anything.
EDIT, this problem is now sorted....
bump, can anyone shed some light?
Install CWM first as per instructions in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734166
I was doing it with Rom manager before, sorry i forgot to say, i have tried the process which is mentioned on the thread you suggested and have just tried it again, still no joy and its coming up with that screen in the first post. Could it be something to do with the kernal i am using?
Oliver
Bump!!!! please, anybody got any ideas... would flashing a new kernal be of any help?
so i havemade a backup using nandroid, seen as it wasnt working through rom manager. i just need to know what files should be within it for it to have backed up my rom... or should i just trust that it should be there.
Hi, if i was you i would download titanium backup, the free version is all you need, then you can create a full backup of all your system data and apps and even app data so ur settings dont change... it will take about 5 - 10 mins. then when you have flashed a new rom or what ever it is your doing, just re-apply titanium backup and let that do all the work..
yeah, i understand that. but i mean to be able to restore my stock rom if i need to? because im preeeeety sure that titanium dosent do that? (if this sounds sarcistic it isnt meant to be)
well there is an option to back everything up into a ROM but ive never used it so i dont know, besides if your changing to a new ROM and you dont like it, just download and flash back to your current ROM it only takes two ticks via clockworkMod.
but clockwork mod isnt letting me do it (make a recovery image), if you see the top of thread...
yes but you dont need a recovery image, you can flash back to your current firmware if you dont like the new one. all the system apps ect are built in to the ROM, so all you need to back up is your apps and things, which titanium backup can do
ok, i am officially confused, as i dont see how i can do that without a recovery image to reflash...
Guys, what's the easiest way to backup my contacts and messages along with all SNS data within my phone itself, before I flash a wipe ROM? If anyone suggests Titanium Backup, please do let me know which system files I should be backing up... Thank you!
Anyone ???
C'mon guys!! Someone reply to this...
I don't know about backing up to the phone, but I have transfered all my contacts to my google account and I use SMS Backup + to save my messages and call logs to my gmail. Of course I then use Titanium Backup to save my apps + their data as well as thinkgs like my wifi access points. I just run the backup all apps + system data before I change ROM and when the new rom is installed I just restore the apps + their data, then restore my messages and call logs with SMS Backup + and of course my contacts are synced by my google account.
I have not found a way to backup the SNS info so have given up on having facebook and twitter info merged with my contacts. I can't be arsed with manually linking contacts together every time I get my ROM Flashing fix
Don't know if thats of any help but thats what I do. I would also be interested in finding out if its possible to backup my mesages,call logs & SNS info on my phone rather than in the cloud.
For contacts & messages & others thing except apps (I use Titanium for them), I use Backup Everything (free app, no need to be root, ht*ps://market.android.com/details?id=com.BackupEverything) :
This application can fast backup and restore almost everything on your phone, Include sms、mms、bookmarks、Call Log、system setting、alarms、apn and application. schedule backup is also supported.
Don't need root.
The backup files are stored in your "External Storage Directory"/BackupEverything/.
The apps are recovered to your "External Storage Directory"/BackupEverything/app/temp/. You can install them by manual.
As I don't have much phone to test, it's hard to make this app works great on every phone. Please send me the err log if you get a failed. I will try my best to fix it.

If you google sms backup with titanium, you should find a really good tut (its on a desire forum I think)
Edit - it's an incredible forum.
titanium backup was partially working before a couple app versions of updates ago. but then titanium backup updates and now it crashes on launch. is anyone else having this issue?
Yeah, TiBu is getting more worse with every update. Go back to 8.10 or better use Migrate
Im using 8.3.3 and i'ts fine.

I had with 8.4.0.2. I have found a solution.
Uninstall TB and delete com.keramidas.... folders in /data/data with any root file explorer, there some leftovers which make app to crush.
Nope everything stated failed still

Yes, you're right. Best is to deinstall old titanium and cleaning with sdmaid. For me the newest titanium is working fine.
