Hi guys I've been searching but cannot find the answer. It doesn't make sense to redownload the apps. Do I have to backup using TiBackup than restore each app?
Titanium is a great way of restoring all your apps. Titanium is great at botching things up too if you're not careful!
The best way is to re download.

Hi,
I have a stupids question, as i am going to flash a custom Rom (Fear edition F19) I did a backup with Titanium, I just have noobie question, when i will restore after flashing, will it restore all those LG apps too ? like car home , sns etc ? I only want the Apps that are provided in the Fear edition + Apps that i have installed myself + data
What should i do if it will install LG apps ?
Also another noobie question as Fear edition come with a launcher, will be backup replace that launcher if it is same ? Go launcher for example ?
Thanks for your help
Yes it will restore the LG apps.
But at the restore function in titanium backup you can check/uncheck which apps you want to restore.
You can always cook it in the modaco kitchen so you can choose what you want.
Or you can easily uninstall them easily with titanium backup even if they are system apps.

No, it will NOT restore the system apps from you backup. If your new ROM contains the same system app as a previous backup, it will restore the data for it.
TB does not backup system apps, only system data. Your user apps will be restored.
I'm not sure I understand the launcher question. Anyway, if TB restores a launcher, the next time you press HOME you will be asked which launcher to use.

One is saying Yes and other No who to believe lolzz I jsut installed the Custom Rom so i need the answer please before i mess up with restore lolzz
Hi all,
A question regarding backups:
I am currently on CM7 MIUI.US and am thinking of switching back to GB roms. If I do a backup on CWM now, and flashing stock GB + roms over, and if I so happen to not like the ROM and wishes to go back to MIUI, I can simply do a restore on my old backup is that correct?
Now backing up, do I need to do a factory reset? I am okay with cache + dalvik wipes, but factory resetting will reset all the customisation done on my MIUI rom and it is a nasty thing to do all over again (dragging and sorting all the apps into respective folders )
And I would have to use TiB to do all the restoration of my apps! and I would have to choose what apps to backup etc etc..
Thanks for any answers xda folks!
well you can maker a nandroid backup in CWM this is like an ISO image of the whole ROM, whether you will have issues restoring it on GB roms i dont know.
You could make a backup using the MIUI backup (which backs up settings and screen layouts and so on) but this would only be able to restore on MIUI ROM (if you decide to go back)
I would make a backup using MIUI, and make a backup using Ti Backup (if you have the paid version its all automated, No need to press DONE after each app has backed up)
Hope this helps.
EDIT: you could make a nandroid backup too, what the hell, if your flashing anyway, Im just not 100% sure it will work.
Yea i was asking if backing up nandroid will help when i want to revert.. But thanks for the heads up on the miui backup! And yeah I have tib pro so restoring isn't a pain, the tough part is the choosing of the apps to restore..

Well restoring a nandroid backup of a MIUI ROM and restoring it on a Different ROM MAY cause problems (ive never tried this)
Restore all your apps !! if you need to choose you obviously have too many and dont use them.
Delete the junk, Keep the good save yourself some space too !!
(im also an app collector lol)
There are those files from like 162939594 years ago that I use TiB to backup and never restored

Hello everyone.
So I have a pretty unique problem. I've been using GingerDX for quite some time (about 2-3 months) and i didnt get any big problems other than some lag, not that serious though.
Suddenly, my Wi-Fi stopped working, it would say it's on, but wouldn't actually connect or find any networks, so I decided to do a full wipe, didn't work, and then I reflashed the stock rom (2.1) to start all over again.
Of course I backed up all of my apps with Titanium, and I found the stock backup & restore app here in XDA.
After backing up and reflashing stock ROM, then GDX. I installed the backup & restore app with xrecovery.
Sadly, the app wouldn't recognize the .sbf file, but the older ones worked perfectly. Can anyone help me please?? I didn't have any other backups of my messages and bookmarks. Is there any way to extract that .sbf file? I've been searching for an hour and didn't find anything!!!
If you backup using TB you need use TB to recover data.
By default it is backing up only user apps+data (not system ones), so it |IS possible that you lose your bookmarks and messages
Yes, my apps are fully restored, what I'm worried about is the msgs and bookmarks, and it looks like I'm not going to be able to restore them :'(...
hello everybody i have a question,if i would upgrade my darkyrom to a rom based on ics and if i would save all my apps and settings of these apps(for example savegame of emulator or data settings of poweramp),what steps do i have to do? backup of data+app or just backup of apps? or backup of only data? if i restore a backup of DATA in another rom with another firmware does it cause brick? thanks a lot for help
Your mileage may vary:
Restoring apps will probably be ok.
Restoring apps + data is flaky and you risk Forced Closures and other bad behaviours.
Make sure you make a nandroid backup of what you've got now, flash ICS, nandroid back it while it's still pristine, then restore apps via TB slowly and see what'll happen.
Another way is to reinstall the apps via Google Play account, after all, it has a record of everything you got from them. I know it can be a pain, but maybe you'll have a better gain. Clean install - clean app install
I hear you about app settings...try taking screen shots and storing on your microSD card/Dropbox/Google Drive...at least you have something to compare.
TLDR; risky restoring via apps + data via TB when going GB to ICS, sure thing is clean install and reinstall apps from Google Play.
I agree with this totally, nice idea about screen shots too

Guys how do you back up and restore apps and data between ROMs? Is Titanium the only option?
Well theres also Swift Backup which I used recently and works well and theres other apps like Helium for example.
