[Q] Restore apps between roms

Hello,
I've always used mybackup pro to restore the apps on my phone when flashing a new rom. HOwever, after flashing from Darchroid, back to flash 2.3.3, it's giving me problems with No Apps found. I have all my apps on my SD card, and was wondering is there another process without using a program to restore them onto the new rom?
Thanks You

[Q] kies ".sbu" backup

Hello everyone,
I recently flashed CM7 and everything went well, it runs smooth and everything works as far as I tested... However, Kies is a b*tch . As expected, it no longer recognizes my phone, but the problem is : I have done a backup of all contacts I had, and now I can't get it back, since they are stored in a 2.2gb (along with loads of videos, pictures, etc.) .sbu file that kies won't touch unless I plug a "i9000m" phone in it.
So, is there any way to open those .sbu backup files or to retrieve the information stored in them? I guess if there's no other way I could flash back to stock ROM, restore with kies, find another way to backup and then reflash CM7, but I really don't feel like it ...
By the way, I also have a CWM backup from before the flash that I could use, but I'm not sure if it would work with CM7. If I only restore "data" will I get those contacts back? and will it mess up my phone because of CM7?
Thanks for the answers
Edit: Ignore this, the contacts are actually in a separate .spb file... So, how do I open/use that?

[Q] GOBackup issues with JB update

My phone was on .230 for the longest time. Since JB dropped I decided to finally back everything up and start fresh and FXZ my phone back to .905 and proceeded to update to .246 and then to JB. My phone finally works again, better than it ever has. The only problem is my backup is nowhere to be found. I backed it up while on .230 and I tested the backup before proceeding. I looked on internal SD and external SD and can't find my file anywhere and now I am without my contacts, which is not good at all as I have many business/personal contacts that won't be easy to recover. Does anybody have any suggestions in order to recover my lost contacts or are they just simply that, lost contacts? I would rather have my phone back on .230 constantly freezing and slow as all hell to have my contacts fully back. Any help is much appreciated.

[Q]Recover lost files

A couple of days ago i downloaded stock firmware and installed it with ODIN. I have installed custom ROMS before and internal memory has never been deleted, but this time it decided to disapear apparently. Is there some way to recover these files? I've tried the "undeleter" app from the store but it doesnt find anything. It's the pictures from my gallery i want back.

When you use Odin to flash firmware it completely wipes your phone. As far as I know, unless the data was on your external SD, the data is gone.

No write permission on internal SD after factory reset

Hey guys, hope you can help me here. I was always on Viperone and now went back to stock Android. I had a TWRP Backup of latest Original Rom I made begin of this year.
When I flash back the backup of original rom everything works fine, but when I do a factory reset then the phone alwys loses the write permission on the internal SD card.
I always need to download an app to fix it, but this isn't really a workable solution because I wanna sell this phone.
This Phone still has the root, I did not go completely back to stock.
Is there any way to fix this problem completely?
