I'm trying to restore some apps using titanium backup. Every time it hangs and I can't preform another operation, because it says one is already in process. I have to reboot the phone and upon starting again, the app appears to have been successfully restored. Has anyone else experienced any similar issue?
Having that issue right now. Hanging on the first app.
i think its an oreo issue. you can change the way that apps are stored in preference/app processing mode.(way down at the bottom)
note sure if it will help but try out one of the other 2 methods available.
my issue is that app crashes after i start it. on a freshly installed oreo build it works. if i restore all my apps and then revisit TiBu then it will crash. so its either the quantity of apps that i now have accumulated over the years and after they are restores when app is refreshing the number of apps to manage it crashes or one app in particular is causing the issue.

So I installed Cognition 2.1, and everything seems pretty awesome. However, every time I open Google Talk, it closes. It doesn't prompt me to FC, but it pops up briefly and disappears. Task managers say that it's running, but I can't receive any messages nor can I open the program.
I tried restoring the app and the data in TiBa but no luck. Same results. Any thoughts?
This happened to me when I restored the accounts using Titanium Backup.
Someone else said to restore everything again with Titanium to fix it, but I don't know myself if that worked. I wound up re-flashing to stock and then when I restored with Titanium I just didn't restore the accounts.
When you say "Accounts," do you mean just the one called "Accounts" with the Titanium Backup logo next to it? Or are there other things you're referring to as well?

That's what I'm talking about, yeah. I don't know with 100% certainty if it'll work but it seems like that was the culprit because my Market wouldn't download anything either. When I did the same exact process again I manually added my gmail account before I did Titanium restores and I stayed away from the Accounts item in there.
Try restoring everything again, in Titanium, all system data. Someone here said it works to do that. Maybe it will? Only other option at this point is to reflash to stock and update it again. (as far as I know, I tried quite a few things and nothing else worked. I didn't try restoring everything again with Titanium though)
Yeah I have the exact same problem: market downloads won't work either. I wonder what causes that?
I just clicked restore all data on Titanium Backup (didn't feel like reinstalling every single app again), and it worked! Also restored all my homescreen data: didn't realize that got backed up.
Thanks for the help!

You restored system data back to an app... thats a big no no
Starting yesterday, the NYTimes app for tablet crashed on me every time I opened it. Tried uninstalling with Titanium Backup, soft reset, restore (app only), but to no avail: it crashes every time after opening, whenever I try to scroll.
What's odder still is that when I locate the app in the web market (which I couldn't do directly yesterday, for some reason) and attempt to install it, all of my devices, including the Xoom, are greyed out.
If I search for the app from the market on my Xoom, it doesn't even show up (although the phone app does. At one point, briefly, I was getting a message about my download being cancelled due to incompatibility. Now, however, once I can get to the app's page in the market, when I try to install, I get "The requested item could not be found.")
Finally, if I manage to get to a web from which I can click a link that will take me directly to the NYTimes tablet app page in the market, after I click "install" I get: "purchase cancelled - your device is not compatible with this item."
The only thing I can think of that I've changed on my end is having upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 recently, but I did not notice whether the NYT app quit working immediately after the upgrade or later.
I would really appreciate any help with this one. Thanks
when I upgraded to 3.1, almost any app I restored from Titanium Backup would FC immediately when run. Didn't matter whether I restored the app only or app+data.
Clearly there's an incompatibility between Titanium Backup and the way apps are installed or stored in 3.1.

I've had some weird Ti Backup issues as well, but this also seems to involve the market.
Can anyone else comment as to whether they're able to see the nytimes tablet app in the market, or install it on a xoom running 3.1? Thanks
In my searches, I came across at least one user with a verizon xoom running 3.1, and he claimed to be able to download and use this app from the market.
The app has been updated since my original post from 1.01 to 1.03, and a look at the reviews indicates that the upgrade may have fixed the issue, but unfortunately, I cannot get the app.
I would be hugely grateful if anyone, especially someone with a verizon xoom, could take a look to see whether they are able to download this app (and if they can, is there some way for me to get it?). Thanks
I'm on a Verizon Xoom.
It's not showing for me anymore, either. Only the phone app is.

Thanks so much for checking. Are you running 3.1?
I made backups of some of my system apps with Titanium, then deleted them from the phone (don't worry, I didn't delete anything mission-critical). I was going through and restoring some of these apps, just to make sure that I could get everything back to stock if I wanted to, and while almost everything got restored without a hitch, there were a few apps that Titanium would hang on when I hit the restore button.
I'm certainly not screwed or anything. I'll just grab what I need from the system dump. I was just curious if this behavior was consistent across devices. The apps I've been having trouble restoring are News, IM, and Guided Tours. Anybody else having trouble with these?

Anyone having Titanium Backup freeze on random apps during a batch restore? It's driving me nuts... Any help would be appreciated. I'm rooted and deodexed.
I had this issue, I suspect I should have waited longer during the batch but....I was impatient, restarted. The one it got stuck on I had to manually do that one and then the batch worked.
I've had this issue as well. It's been with specific games.
Zenonia 2, for instance. Every now and then, when restoring this game, it will freeze and I will have to kill Titanium and restart the batch. I know it's freezing/hanging because when I kill it and start the batch again, Zenonia 2 takes nowhere near as long to restore as I had waited for it to finish the first time.
I've been having the disappearing apps issue with a select few games (Zenonia 2 being one of them). I will reboot for something, and suddenly certain games will be gone from my app drawer. Reboot again and they will reappear (most of the time, sometimes not all of them). I wonder if it's related....
I also have this, mostly game related. However, it hung on the XDA one today.

If you click on problems on the bottom of the app it will yell you how to fix the hanging issue

Good call.....this worked for me.
Sorry to bump a thread, but the suggestion did not work for me. Random apps still hang even after changing the application processing mode.
Are there any other suggestions I can try?
You can watch for what app hangs and do another backup and unchecked that app. Then go back and backup just that app.

Usually when some of my apps "hang" I just assume it because its got a lot of data to back up.
I have a lot of apps in most cases, so when i run a backup, i usually walk away and do something else anyway. So I don't even notice.
I thought the same thing, but I just got a hang on an app that was 523kb (RSA SecureID in this case). A 523kb app shouldn't take 15 minutes to restore data (before I killed the process). I even get hangs manually restoring items one at a time.
It seems like there's something Titanium Backup doesn't like about our phones.

I don't even use TTB anymore...Ever since I got AppExtractor.
AppExtractor allows you to extract apps straight from a CWM Backup (Nandroid). It even lets you restore SMS/MMS, Contacts, and Settings from a CWM Backup.
So instead of making a CWM backup AND backing up with TTB, you just make one CWM backup and you're set.
"I use Titanium Backup to freeze my bloat/system apps :trollface:"
Yep, Appextractor does that too!
If you're getting Force Closes after restoring apps, press the Fix Permissions button within AppExtractor and there's a good chance of that fixing the problem.
There's just one catch.
The backup you pull from HAS to be done through ROM Manager.
If you use ROM manager anyway, you have nothing to worry about.
If you make the backup through ROM Manager but it still doesn't show up, you need to update CWR. Scroll to the top of ROM Manager, its the first option, just press it.
The best solution I found was to install from the market and then restore the data

That won't cut it for those people that have hundreds of downloaded apps
Right before the .902 update my swipe to unlock screen disappeared. I have since run the update hoping that would fix it. It did not. I re-rooted my phone, ran a backup with Titanium Backup, and performed a factory reset. The swipe to unlock screen came back and worked until i got to the point of restoring system data with Titanium Backup. At this point i am stuck with a phone that when woken goes right to the home screen without having to swipe. Given the timeline of when it stopped working again it has something to do with system data, but i have no idea what. Does anyone know what system data i should choose not to restore in order to regain this functionality?
you might have frozen a system app i would start freezing app by app till you find the culprit or follow the thread labeled apps you can freeze or something like that..
I have never frozen anything with the Titanium Backup, I use it strictly for backup and restore. I just double checked and nothing is frozen.
Try enabling disable loxkscreen I thinks it under sec rity maybe wiping dalvic and cache could do it sometimes that works for some odd reason

I've tried enabling and disabling a pattern, password, and pin to no avail. How would I wipe dalvic and cache as you suggest?
You have recovery right ?

Now that I think about it what exactly are you restoring in titanium meaning apps system app etc if you are restoring system app that might be the problem restore regular apps only see if that does it
Sent from my XT875 using XDA App
I'm not sure. I don't think so. I'm pretty new at this stuff.
Will that mean that I'll have to re setup all my ringtones, start all my games at the beginning, etc. if i don't restore the system data?
most likely its play your games from the begginging or keep your save point and have no lockscreen i am not 100 percent sure but that is the only thing i can think of i had to do that once it wasn't a lockscreen issue but i was a consistant force close issue reset titanium and didn't do system apps and it didn't force close anymore sometimes titanium is a problem someone chime in if i am off my rocker!!
let me ask this, what i would care about the most is not losing my texts. Do you know what system data would be responsible for that?
Not sure but I think there a SMS saver app don't know for I don't really care about texts
Sent from my XT875 using XDA App
there is one its called SMS backup and restore
