Installing apps after flashing new rom

Hi ppl
Is there any way to have all apps installed the way it was before switching to a new rom ? I mean when I try out new roms I have to install all apps again. I've tried my backup pro and titanium but they only restore all apps. Anyone has a faster way of doing this??

I'm using MyBackup root therefor. Here you can restore all apps with the data in batch mode. But I think MyBackup pro should also do it.

Did u backup your apps along with all their data? There is an option in Titanium Backup to do so in the batch option. I still have my high scores of Temple Run

MyBackup Pro seems to be the best bet considering Titanium does create issues for some folks.
But do remember restoring apps can produce errors in the working of the ROM which otherwise wouldn't exist.
Safest best is to clean instal your apps again.

Tx guys but I cannot get all apps installed . It only restores them with their respective data. I don't wanna install all apps again one by one after flashing a new rom

Titanium backup has a batch restore mode where you can restore more than one app at a time. If this is not what you mean, I don't have a clue what you're talking about.

I haven't used titanium but I'll check it out. Just to make sure do the apps get installed or just restored? I mean do I have to hit the install button for every app?

Listen buddy, this is a community here. Respect others to get respect for yourself.
Your posts are quite inconsistent.
In the same thread, at the start of the post you mentioned you have used Titanium & a couple of posts later you state you HAVE NOT yet used titanium.
with incorrect/incomplete info no one would be able to assist you correctly & your frustration levels are going to rise.

@letmedanz I didn't mean to disrespect anyone but the way nonverbose responded wasn't cool.
Anyway what I meant when I said I used titanium was that I installed it and removed it within minutes. But I'm not here to prove anything so am gonna forget it and apologize to whoever I offended.

That's cool buddy..
Anyhow, a couple of options are available...
at most times when you install a fresh rom, android automatically installs the apps you had on earlier.
This happens when you run the new rom for the first time, in the initial setup.
Provided you have synced your phone with your gmail account.
once you provide your wifi and/or apn details android will automatically download and instal all the apps.
your second option is as you mentioned, third party apps like titanium & mybackup pro.
personally, i prefer MBP cos titanium has given me more than one problem.
MBP is a neat app, you can either backup/restore all apps or just select a few.
howevre , i still believe it is best to reinstall all apps after a new rom instal, cos restored apps may force close or have other issues specially if you are changing between GB & ICS etc

+1 for Titanium backup !!!
You can backup personnal applications, but their settings and your system settings too !!!
The retore process is quicker than google process because you haven't to download applications from network.

Settings...Image?

I have titanium backup pro and have not figured out how to restore all the settings. Maybe I'm confused, but I have to spend hours setting all the preferences, screens widgets etc each time I flash a new ROM. I've heard you can "Image" backup. Does Titanium do that?

Go backup and go backup pro is best..It don't prompt to install each and every app every time..batch restore with data..easy than titanium backup..

Make sure you know what you're talking about before you post. Titanium backup pro HAS batch restore mode in which you don't have to INDIVIDUALLY install every app.

You can always do a dirty flash but you run the risk of it failing.

Incredible s CWM Nandroid backup

Has anyone got a nandroid backup that I could have?
Stuck in bootloop and want to find out of this could restore phone or if I have emmc failure.
Thanks in advance

I doubt anyone would give you their backup, since its filled with personal info and so on. Why not just wipe all and re flash the rom?
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA

because i think phone has lost a partition block so cannot do it that way. Someone could have also backed up as soon as they have put a new ruu in so still a feasible request

Just flash a different Rom dude. Your boot loop will be fixed, install a Rom with a kernel built in, you can't go wrong as long as you wipe all cache and format.

I believe it is not.
A new rom is a fresh install, A backup holds all partitions structures and is designed to restore in case of a fault hence my problem

Restore home screen

Hi
I tried searching for a noob help thread to post this but couldn't find one.
I just installed a custom Rom (trickdroid) and I want to restore all my homescreen pages and shortcuts the way they were. It's the same stock launcher and I have a backup of all the user and system apps using titanium, so I'm sure I just need to restore one of the system apps but I don't know which one. Can anyone help?

[Q] removing bloatwares with s-off / stock rom

Hi guys
I was wondering if I can remove the bloatwares with titanium backup Permanently with s-off. As with s-on all the bloatwares restore once I restart the phone.
These bloatwares are bothering me. But I wanna keep the stock Rom.
Thank you

Search for Rom cleaner ver1.4
that will do it without S off

You don't need s-off, just root. Select in TB and tap Uninstall.

You apparently don't have /system r/w access. What rom and firmware are you on?

Everything stock. I only have root
Ok I'm done trying. I will just flash viperone or maximumhd as I like Rom that offers ota updates
Thx

The stock kernel has system write protection enabled. Flash flar2's bulletproof kernel and then titanium will work.

[Q] SOLVED - Rooted, uninstalled bloat apps, but apps come back after reboot

Hi,
my wife got her new HTC One with Vodafone-ROM. I rooted the phone (no new ROM, still using Vodafone-ROM), uninstalled the bloat-apps (Titanium Pro) and installed and activated AdAway. For the first look, everything works fine.
But after a reboot the boat-apps are back and AdAway is disabled again.
How can that be? What can I do? Could there be an "auto-install" function in the Vodafone-ROM? Do I have to install a custom ROM?
Thx Nem.

it's because the stock kernels have write protection
flash custom kernel and you'll have it
