[Q] Titanium backup ISSUE - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
i just flashed a new ROM and when i went to restore my apps and data from TB i realize that all numbers in the batch tab are 0!!!
First i had the backup in the external sdcard. I move them to the internal and nothing.
Any ideas?
I did the same in another note and everything went fine...

Did you search for and select the "Backup folder" in the settings of TB?
When switching to JB the mount points of the cards changed and so the old backup folder "moved". Check this.

dont use backup apps, they mess stuff up like this, crossinfect roms with junk and old versions and corrupt stuff. and then blame the rom, sheesh, good you dont do that.
Android should be build better with backups in mind, my 2cents

Hi,
I solved it. In the end it just was that TB for some reason loaded the user filter, so obviously the backed up app won't show

[Q] Nandroid Doesn't Backup Apps?

At first i thought that nandroid just backed up your system files, and that was fine until i tried it on my friend's incredible, and found out it backed up all his apps too. Is there a setting i need to change to make it do that or something? I'm using cognition 2.3b8
EDIT: ahh nevermind. I did a backup just now, and it said that because i had no external SD card in, it skipped the backup of applications.... weird. Let me change the question then. Is there a way to make it just backup the apps on the internal sd card?

Well for some reason it isn't backing up the apps for me. :/ i'll try making another backup, then restoring it to see if it still doesn't back them up.

TiBu Restore Question

So i finally flashed my first custom ROM, yeah!
BUT i pulled a bonehead move and forgot to copy contacts to the sd card I did do a full apps & data backup in TiBu before flashing. Now obviously the new rom has apps already loaded so i can't just drop the backup folder on the sd or it will overwrite the existing one, can i rename the one i backed today and restore from that one? OR can i just restore contacts somehow from the backup?

If you made a nandroid backup, you can restore it and try again.
You have an android phone, are your contacts synced with gmail? If not, you should start saving your contacts to gmail. I never backup contacts, I use gmail and Facebook to store my contacts.
If you didn't make a backup before you flashed your phone, and you didn't sync them with gmail ... how did you transfer them to your captivate originally? Do you still have that data?

If you did the full apps and data backup.. i believe your contacts "should" still be there. Go into tibu and to the backup/restore tab.. scroll down and it will be one of them that is in Green. I think says something along the lines of contacts. If you click that and then hit data only.. It "Should" restore your contacts. After you do that, you need to reboot your phone before you will see the contacts.
Now, however, it also depends on what Rom you put on. I have done this twice. The first time was when i installed Cog 3.04. I found out how to do that and i did it and my contacts went back on to my phone no problem.. Now, i have installed Andromeda 2.0 and when i tried to do that, swype bugs out like crazy . some bug with their new Rom that wont let you do it. I am guessing it has something to do with the app versions or something. Luckily for me, most of my contacts were saved through google.. so i got the most of them back. only missing a few ..
So, give this a try.. and see if that works for you..

[Q] Titanium Backup App Data?

So I updated to a new rom (serendipity 7) and backed up all my apps with Titanium Backup.. I'm curious if the data it backs up is like save data for games and such? Cause when I restored everything I didn't have any of my saves.. Which kinda pisses me off cause I got fairly far in Plants vs Zombies.. =(
Yes tibia will back them up and restore them. At least have for me. Just open tubular and scroll until you see your game/s and click on it. Then pick the backup you want. Now IF you only have one backup then go into preferences and choose Max backups and set it to 2,3, or whatever you want. Then go back and refresh the apps list and hopefully your correct saved data will be there. Now click on the game and when it pops up say restore data or app+data.
I have my Max backup at 4 and has saved me on occasions when an app update doesn't seem to function correctly so I pick an older version of the app. Also make sure you have where it is saved in the same location it was saved previously, in other words if you originally had it saving it to the external SD card then you may have to change it back to save/restore from the external (or vise versa). I mention this because some roms that come with Toby already automatically have it set to save on the sdcard and I didn't have all my apps or data until I resaved the backup to my external SD card. Just throwing things out there for you to try.

Yep that worked, I ran the batch that restored app+data however it didn't restore my data.. Looks like I'll have to go through and restore data.. Thanks
again guys I dont know why TB isn't reading my backups? I have them on my sd card all of them but TB does not give me an option to restore the app data! what's wrong? Help please Thank youuu
You need to describe your problem better.
What ROM you use? What ROM backups are from? Have you set your default backup folder? Do you see your backups? What exactly you can't restore? etc...

[Q] Trouble with "My backup pro"

I would like to restore my applications off of some backup files created by my backup pro, my issue is that I cannot restore them because it says that SD is either full or to disconnect from PC and make sure that the SD is mounted correctly.
If anyone has any alternate methods of restoring APK and data files or help they can provide that will be greatly appreciated. I will be searching the forums until then.
I installed .APK files but would like to restore all data as well, I copied all files from phone to PC can I just drag and drop data and all should be good?
I have SGS Captivate rooted with Corn Kernel v7.06
Dunno about my backup...the must popular app for restoring is titanium backup.

You might have to suck it up and buy tibu add well. I had bought system tuner pro (which is good) after getting on here I realized that I should get tibu.

That means there is a problem with your sd card. The error message isn't very detailed, but that's what it is, short of your sd card being full.
The program needs cache space to unzip the backup and such.
I have used my backup pro over tibu and wouldn't change that. My backup pro freezes apps, backs up apks and data either separately or in one shot and also backs up favs,mms/sms, calendar, etc....
The only thing I use tibu for is to remove system apps.

Thanks for all of your responses, much appreciated. If that is the case "there is a problem with your sd card" then how am I to test that theory? like how can I figure out if there is something wrong with my SD and by SD you mean my external SD??

TiBu will do that too. Plus wifi connections, bt pairings, move apps to sd, or vice versa. And do it quicker than My Backup.

Both Titanium Backup and My Backup have free versions (as do many apps). Try the free versions first before jumping in with the paid version. I don't have problems with My Backup (I use the Root version).

True, titanium does offer a free version. However in order to unlock its true power, you need the paid version. My Backup Root is pretty good. I used to use it before i bought TiBu. Buy TiBu is,imo, the better of the two.

Yeah huge difference, I bought it. although for people with little or no experience with android my backup is just fine.
hallo all, don't know if someone is reading that, but i have a problem with mybackupro 4.0.2
after restart i loose my data , that i restored with mybackup pro before. When i restore data and simply go back, the data are restored ... but after reboot all the data is gone and the apps are in factory mode

where do i put the BOOTSTRAP.APK. what folder?

where does bootstrap.apk go
finally managed to root the 5.7
everytime I power on and hold M i got to the selection screen.
but every selection just powers on the phone normally.
that means i need bootstrap right? I have it from 5.6 but i dont remember where it goes because my old droid screen took a dump
I dont even know how I managed to make a backup on my old phone with no vision, but i did.
PLEASE HELP
okay so I got bootstrap working and I restored my backup from 5.6
now my phone isnt turning on. its stuck on the red eye.
anyone know what I can do?
NEVER MIND IT JUST TOOK AWHILE.... thanks anyways
Oh God. This sounds ugly... You are selecting BP Tools from the M+Power menu, right? Secondly, it doesn't matter where you put the APK on the phone, what matters is installing the APK and installing the recovery. Finally, what kind of 5.6 backup did you restore? Apps from Titanium Backup, My BackUpPro, etc. or a nandroid backup in recovery?
Also, can we move this to general? TYIA.

Not sure how to move this thread to a different area...
I restored a nandroid backup in recovery
is it suppose to be missing certain files because I had to drag a bunch of store from my old droid to my comp and then to my new one
(like photos, the roms folder for my emulater, bloat freezing folder for script manager.)
Now my gallery dosnt work. pictures wont show when i go to gallery --> my library
but i can see them in astro in the DCIM folder.
should the NANDroid have backed all that up and restored it???

It does not back up anything on your SD card, like photos, music etc.

That stuff wasnt on my SD card. it was all on the phone.
could my phone have not finished backing up and made the backup file anyway? my old phone screen when out and I made the backup in recovery without being able to see it.
Is there anyway to fix my gallery so I can access my pictures again?
They may not have been on your EXTERNAL SD card, but they were on some form of storage, probably the internal sd card.
Also, you should never have restored a 5.6 nandroid over a 5.7 system. It would have reverted your /system partition and can cause issues with 5.6 and 5.7 components.

Ya neither sd gets backed up. It would cause some storage issues if you had mostly full storage, you would not have room for the backup.
As for your other question someone else may know. The 860 only ever had 1 update so I've never had to deal with different system versions
