Well I created a backup with MI BACKUP because I needed to do a factory reset,
whatsapp app was restored but it was restored as if it was new, with no data, did I just erase all the data?
( I have not setup whatsapp to backup using google).
damn piece of crap did not save my firefox addons or bookmarks, it just restored the app, not the app data., what use is this the :S
No.
If you want to backup app data, you need TITANIUM BACKUP.

Hello everyone,
I updated to JW4 and of course had to wipe data. Unfortunately I forgot to backup my SMS messages. Is there any way to restore them, despite the fact I forgot to back them up?
i don't think so :/ if you wipe data you deleted all the messages...
Have you got a previous nandroid backup or titanium backup? i think you can restore sms from titanium backups. If you have a nandroid backup, you could restore previous rom, export sms, reflash new, import sms

No, I have some backups, both nandroid and titanium, but both are irrelevant. I thought that maybe it was possible to restore SMS messages by digging through system files or something like that...
Hi, just upgraded to jw4 from jvu and all sms messages were successfully restored via titanium backup. Have you got a recent TB sms backup you can use (check the date) against SMS

Using CWM make backup and restore / backup, when you restore backup and restore / Advanced Restore / restore data.
But with programs like Titanium can you do?

Hi,
I backup my phone via CWM and Titanium, then I wipe my phone, installed the same ROM, tried to restore my LG Memo & Email, both does not restore my previous backup data. Here's what i've tried:
-wipe phone, install rom, restore both apps (+data) via titanium but no data was restored (or maybe it did, but my email settings and memos still absent). Tried restarting, still no joy. Tried restoring mobile access points & sms, all doesn't work. But most apps do get restored with data only a few doesn't.
-wipe phone, restore original cwm backup, everything is present with data. (I made another backup of titanium during this restore just to double confirm)
- wipe phone, install rom, install Appextractor app, selected my cwm backup, restore lg memo & email (+data), still no joy. I even tried restoring my sms backup, still no sms was restored.
- tried backup sms & setting using LG bundled backup app, restore works. But it doesn't backup apps data, just the apps (like fresh install).
-Lastly, I tried restore my previous cwm backup, reboot, go to titanium, restore my very old titanium backup files (I do keep it on separate folder), it has memo & email app but less data because it's old backup, obviously. Restore it, Works!
It seems that the problem arise when I do a wipe and fresh install rom which is exactly the same rom as previous (stock 20q from flix123) tried to restore some apps and settings but it does not get restored with data.
Please help. I need the memo I saved and emails (sent folder emails are saved locally) to restore properly.
Thanks.
Hello everybody!
I have a question belonging the wipes before flashing a ROM:
Which data do I have to wipe in order to have a clean Rom flash?
And, do I loose my game data ( gl2sd ) on internal- and or on extSD?
Which data will o lose?
Thanks for help.

Hello! To do a clean install you have to: Wipe data/Factory reset; Wipe cache; Wipe Dalvik cache; Mounts and storage->format /data; format /system; format /preload. First, make sure you are on a SAFE kernel! You can search for safe kernels here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789397
When wiping, you will lose unsaved data like: Contacts, SMS/MMS, Call log, Applications, saves for games (only if they aren't backed up ofcourse). Pictures, music etc on Internal storage or Ext.SD card won't be touced. For backing up you can use Titanium or other software.
Have fun flashing roms!
its always better to do a nandroid backup.. before formatting as this will also save your call logs. contacts ans SMSs and many many more. TB can restore then back using the nandroid backup./
Very good question
Wiping factory data will erase all apps and contacts / SMS / call log
if your contacts are synced with google, you will restore them as soon as you log into your google account when u flash a new ROM
to make sure you're synced with google.. check contacts saved on PHONE by checking (contacts to display) option and if there were any there, make sure u choose (Merge with google) -- that way all your contacts will be synced with google
then do SYNC ALL from accounts menu in settings to make sure everything is synced
you can also backup SMS and call log into Titanium by using (backup XML) option when u press the menu key on titanium
but most importantly, before you flash a new ROM.. make sure you open Titanium batch backup and backup (1) new and modified app (2) modified data
so that your backups are fresh and updated
Best of luck
Folks
I did a full backup of system, data, etc on TWRP (2.66gb total folder size) - can I assume that should I corrupt my phone somehow, I can restore from this and the phone will be in the exact state when I did the backup - all apps, logins, etc intact?
Also, I do weekly backups with titanium free edition - does titanium does the same thing or should I still do the above every few months?
Thanks

It's a complete "snapshot" of your phone as it was when you took it.
No titianium does not do the same thing. Titanium backs up individual apps and their respective data so you can restore individual apps or all apps at once. It's benefit is when switching roms where you have to wipe the phone and you can just restore your user apps without restoring any system data
I use the app ultimate backup to back up apps and data and I use the TWRP backups just as a safety measure before flashing a new ROM or update.......
I like to start a fresh you see with a new ROM, and then just install ultimate backup again, move over the back up data that I previously copied to my PC, and restore them, and this basically returns everything to how it was before due to the launcher, Nova, and its settings also being restored.
