MyBackupPro (Paid app) is not showing up after a nandroid restore. I cant find it anywhere whatsoever that it is installed on my G1 phone. However, if I do a search for the app in the Market, I click on the app, it shows like it's installed because the "open" and "uninstall" option is there but they are greyed out. So I cant click on either button to open or uninstall it. wth? What is causing the problem and how can I get it installed?
EDIT:
Hit it! Lite (app) also has the same problem.
Thanks!
bump? Does anyone have a link or something to an issue like this?

Installed the app via the android market and did backups with it before updating my X10i.
But after the update of the phone i cant find this app in the android market place.
But if i got a hold of the apk file and download it to my pc i would be able to put it on the memorycard and install with astro, Am i right?
Yes you are right. or use adb without even transferring it to your phone
The exact name of the app and dev of it?
Protip: goto appbrain top search market
It´s called: MobileHome Backup
I cant post a link to it since i´m a new user here..
I can find the app on the page appbrain and in the appbrain app.
But when i try to install the app it says: There´s no matches in the android market for the search: pname:mobilehome.backup
What to do?? Can i get a hold of the apk file in any other way?
Handy backup for android would work to. Did a backup with that program to before the update just to be sure but now i cant find any of the programs in the market. Why did the market change beacuse of the update?
installed from market (http://www.appbrain.com/app/mobilehome.backup)
backed with Titanium
found on sd
send to myself by mail

The only problem is that the program didn´t restore my messages even tough it said it did... =(

Hi
Look for "sms backup & restore" in the android market to save your messages.
full version?
Hi sijum,
Is that the full version of Handy backup?
Thanks for sharing that.....
So i just updated to the new version of Titanium Backup on my captivate...it keeps crashing on startup...yes my phone is rooted, i have the latest ver of busybox installed. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, it asked to get the latest ver of busybox which i already had and then it keeps crashing...any ideas or has anyone had this prob so far?
Im also having this issue.Its nothing you did wrong. If you check the comments for the app, many users are reporting this problem, fir different phones.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Update posted overnight appears to fix it.
Titanium backup is telling me to go to setting and then into applications, and then to check a box dealing with unknown sources.....but i don't any such box, anyone else see this?

You don't have that option on the captivate. Ignore it. Make sure you got the latest version of TB. Launch the application. Click on problems. Let it install busybox (yea yea you have it)... and it should be ok.
thanks for that...along the same lines, i am trying to re-install my media hub apk, using appsinstaller, say the phone is blocked from non market apps....i am using SRE 1.2.1a
I'm not sure about that.. but..

there's a link to the apk again. Try to sideload it.. or first try to make sure you actually have market access .. here's an app to test it: Furdiburb
look for it in the marketplace and if you are able to download/install it then something's up @[email protected] and I'm not quite sure as I've never used appinstaller.
For the captivate you have to edit settings.db to enable non-market apk files to install. There is a guide on these forums and on wiki sites. It's not that difficult.
Reply back if you want more information.
Titainum backup will not restore properly unless that settings.db is edited.

Hi, this is kind of a difficult question for me to explain, but I will try.
I have Titanium Backup installed and it was working fine for a while.
One day the icon went corrupt and the app would not open.
Naturally I went to uninstall and reinstall the apk.
When I uninstalled, the app icon and links disappeared and the app ceased to function, but the app did not uninstall.
When I try to reinstall, it asks to replace the old with the new one.
The install finishes with "Application Not Installed"
I can not access Titanium Backup at all.
I have tried using ADB to uninstall and I have uninstalled from the manage applications. I also tried deleting the .apk from /data/app/.
Titanium backup will no longer show up in my Manage Application menu.
I made a flashable .zip from another phone and installed it that way, TiBu still did not show up in the app list, but all the files are in the phones filesystem.
Hopefully someone can help me fix this without reinstalling the ROM.
The problem phone: HTC Hero CDMA CM7 Nightlies.
Thank you!
I hate to bump my own post, but my thread seems to have gotten lost among newer ones and I do not know where else to ask for help fixing it.
I decided to go back go Cyanogen and am having problems getting Titanium Backup to work properly.
It doesn't appear to be able to read my SD card. No apps show that have been backed up. And when I press the search icon, I get the error "The current backup location ("/mnt/extSdCard/TitaniumBackup") cannot be accessed.". I've tried /storage/sdcard1 and also /extSdCard, but none seem to work.
Any ideas out there?

Thanks for the reply, but nope. Tried that and it still doesn't work. The only screen I have in TB is the overview one. Not the typical 3 "tabs".

Thanks for trying! I hope someone else can help! I'm pretty much stuck right now until I get this this working. Nothing seems to make a difference.
Okay, this is weird. It's working now. Even though I rebooted multiple times, and tried every other option I could find, it just wouldn't work. Now all of a sudden it's working. Go figure!
Problem Solved
I used system app mover from play store to convert TB to a system app
This solved the issue. I had the exact same problem on Avatar and Pacman. So do that and it'll be all good.
I get an error message every now and then "com.vlingo.midas has stopped..." and I want to uninstall and remove this app. But I can't find it on my Samsung GalaxyS5 using different file explorers.
I've tried searching but can not find any info om where on my device it is.
My device is rooted. Swedish language on the phone.
Thanx!
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Seeing as you have root access you should be able to remove this pre-installed app. Do you have Titanium Backup installed on your phone? If not, download it fro the Play Store. Open it up and grant it root access, then once it's finished loading hit the Backup/Restore tab at the top of the screen. This will open a list of everything that's installed on your phone (system apps included), find Vlingo and click on it and select the freeze option. This will disable the app without actually uninstalling it, which is like a trial run to see if removing the app is going the affect normal operation of the phone. Use your phone as normal for a day and if nothing goes wrong you can then go back and find it in Titanium Backup again and select the uninstall option (if you wish to uninstall it). Uninstalling the app isn't entirely necessary as freezing it stops it from running.
Good luck!
Thank you very much for your answer!
I installed Titanium Backup and found vlingo. But when I tried to uninstall it I got another error message saying that it couldn't remove vlingo because it couldn't find the APK-file.
I still get the initial error message...
Any more suggestions?

Did you try freezing it first like I suggested?
Transmitted via Bacon
Yes I tried to freeze it but I don't have pro so it wasn't possible. And I don't want to buy it if it doesn't work.
But if it doesn't find the apk then it shouldn't be able to freeze it anyway?

It should still be able to freeze it, but I understand that you don't want to pay to find out. I found this though:
1. Install Go Launcher Ex from the Play Store.
2. While using GO Launcher EX, open the app drawer.
3. Find the*Voice Command*icon.
4. Long press and hold the Voice Command icon, then a red cross will pop up.
5. Press the red cross, then follow the prompts to*uninstall Vlingo.
6. Once you've done that you can uninstall Go Launcher.

I tried that too but it didn't work. So I tried to hide it but I still get the same error message. Now after i hid it I can't find it again. Where are the hidden apps?
I'll buy the Titanium to see if I can freeze it.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate your help!
Have you considered using a custom ROM?
Yes, I've considered changing the ROM. But my earlier experiences, years ago, was that the custom ROMs suffer from various lacks in compability. So for now I don't have the time to experiment with that.
And so far my phone seems to be working after the Titanium purchase. No error messages in 24 hours
