flashing new roms - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey... im a little new to android not tht a noobie but still just learning... i hav an SG Ace running CynogenMod 7.2... i had flashed few other roms as well... but everytime i flashed a rom i had to delete everything... apps contacts messages etc.. i hav an ext3 partition using S2E.. when i flash another rom do i hav to clear the partition as well??? is there any way i can retrieve the apps bak into the new rom? i know theres titanium backup but last time i flashed a rom the backups in titanium back up vanished n i had to restore from CWM backup... is there any other way.. any way off keeping the apps on the ext partition secure n being able to use them on the new rom?
many times i see ppl flashig roms very often do they clear everything as well?
thanx in advance=)

I don't think so ...titanium backup and nandroid backup are the only ways.

hmmm okay thanx=) is there any other option other than titanium? so tht just incase titanium fails ill hav another backup for important apps?

Why don't you try this ....CLOUD BACKUP !

look at this, you can read all about it.
with clockworkmod recovery.
it's realy the best way to backup you'r rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007863
You don't need to backup the ROM, but if you want to be able to recover all your apps and system data then pickup Titanium Backup from the market, and do yourself a favor and get the paid version its totally worth it. If you get the free version its slower, also you have to verify each app that it restores as it goes through the process. With the paid version its faster and you don't need to verify each app as it restores. Hope that helps!
titanium is only to backup you'r software.
wil not help if you mess up you'r rom
i want a thing to get back waranty it i need..

How to save apps when changing roms

I hate it when all apps are removed to change ROM. I want to try Nik's JB and I dont want apps to be removed whatsapp....
try Ultimate Backup Tool for non-rooted and Titanium Backup for rooted
In this case it should be enough to do a nandroid backup. You can test JB and if you finished testing, you just restore your old stuff. The JB ROM is amazing but it's not a daily driver yet so it's kinda needless to install all your apps on it
I backed some using titanium but how how to restore them?
What about the backup and and restore on the recovery? What is that used for?

After backing up with titanium on your old rom
Download titanium on your new rom and you can re-install, but beware that restoring data from different roms may cause FC's
Can you set Titanium to only restore the apks, no data and cache? That should avoid most issues I suppose?
The interface is a little ... busy... so I havent really given it a go yet.

Buy the premium version of titanium backup then you can batch install apps instead of installing one at a time.

Yep. What I usually do, is go on the batch section click restore app, and choose app only. And then use app+data for my games, so I don't lose my scores and saves.
You could always restore the data partition from your old ROMs nandroid backup. Works for me.
For rooted phone, I'd suggest Go Backup.
Titanium Backup is much more powerful, but some essential features, like batch backup/restore, require paid version. And it loads pretty slowly on my Incredible S.
Go Backup offers backing up both apps and their data, as well as SMS/call log/contacts/wi-fi access points. Go dev team has recently added backup merging feature, which works fine either.
Today I installed 4.1.1-based ROM from Nikhil, downloaded Go Backup from the Market, ran backup restoration and voila, in 5 minutes I got all my apps back, including paid ones.
This app is constantly being updated, which is also a weighty argument (at least for me).

That seems like a great idea, anything not to do, or just copy and place..

I'm using 4ext, I just choose advanced restore and choose data partition.
So if I restore my ROM from a previous backup, it will restore all my apps with data too?

Thanks for the info, when Nicks new roms settle in a bit and I try them again I'm going to try your method.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
Is it really the same restoring an app from a backup as from Google play? Market links work and the app is registered by the os, integrated into the share menu (facebook for instance) and so on?
Just trying to learn how android works... Something like that would never work in windows, registry entries would probably break...
Nonverbose can you please explain more about the nandroid backup. I tried titanium and it worked.
I am curious about your method.
Best

nandroid is the backup/restore function in you recovery A nandroid backup will save your COMPLETE ROM with all apps, data and everything else. After a backup you can install whatever you want on your phone and install new things, whatever. And if you had enough, you can restore your backup and your entire phone will be just like when you did the backup It's also a great method to switch between ROMs for example your daily driver (let's say ProjectX) and JB Evolution You can configure both ROMs like you want it, do backups and switch between them The process of backing up/restoring a ROM takes about 5min.
I hope this answered all your questions
Yup I tried this one today but I didnt know it was called nandroid. Thanks

Install Titanium backup and go to menu-->Extract from Nandroid Backup.. select the Backup file and you'll be provided with a list of backed up apps.. If that doesn't work for you install "Nandroid Manager" and try restoring backed-up apps through that..

Go backup restore data

Hi guys!
I have a problem but it's not related to the Moto x.. I'm not sure it's the right place to ask this question!
I made a full backup with go backup pro, updated my Moto x and wiped data. Then I've copied back the go backup folder and tried to restore the data: I've managed to restore only app without the data! My Moto x is rooted.
I really don't understand why I can't restore data app!
Thanks for your help guys
I would see if Go had a website for support.
And then after, I'd uninstall it and stick to Titanium backup pro. It's number one for a reason.
