[Q] Can't reinstall titanium backup! - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I'm on CM6 RC1 on my Motorola Droid, and I've decided to switch over to Bugless Beast instead.
Titanium Backup wasn't working properly, so I uninstalled it. Unfortunately, it seems that the market was in the middle of updating it, and anytime I try to go to the market to install it, there's an empty progress bar, and if I hit "cancel download," the market app crashes.
So, is there a way to backup all of my apps and settings using `adb`? Or is it possible to get the .apk for Titanium Backup from another source?

(bump)Same problem
I'm on CM6 RC2 on a Mytouch3g. Same issue. I'm wanting to move up to the full release and off the (somehwat buggy) RC. However, I don't feel like redoing all of my app installs. Anyone have an idea as to what's going on?

Titanium Restore on 3.1

3g Xoom with freshly installed BRD 3.1 packages.
3.1 update went well, reinstalled Titanium to restore everything.
Restore seems to go fine, yet virtually every app that gets restored, once run will FC. Every single time.
Any ideas???
Thanks in advance!
Im not sure, but I think it has something to do with the fact that the update gave us a new android version. I dealt with the same problem last night as well. What was weird was that the only app that restored the app+data without FC probkems was Angry Birds.
Restoring the apps only (no data) worked every time though...
Reboot into recovery, Fix permissions, reboot. I had no problems at all after doing this.
When i use titanium backup i'm only showing some xoom functions, not my apps. How do i fix that? Did look for threads before posting btw.
I had this problem also. I tried restoring all my apps + data and got force closes. I uninstalled the apps and downloaded them from the market- they'd work.. Try to restore data to the newly downloaded app and again it would FC. Market doesn't recognize the apps that are replaced via Titanium Backup so I had to download them anyway just so I would be able to stay updated.
Another problem I had- Titanium no longer recognizes that I bought the pro version. I downloaded both parts (titanium free and the pro version- that's just a key...) but Titanium doesn't open all features after downloading Pro from Market. I see donate version only beside hypershell, etc...
It also takes a VERY long time to ask for root rights when starting up... Anyone else?
I will try to restore one app from Titanium and fix permissions as mentioned earlier in the thread. Here goes nothin'....
To the guy having issues finding his apps- try installing the busybox installer from jrummy16 in the market (the other one didn't work for me), install busybox 1.9 from it because the busybox that TB installs didn't work for me (and other people) and then make sure in your preferences that you have the correct folder selected for backing up. The autodetect worked for me.
EDIT: Wow! Fixing permissions solved the FC issue- now I can restore all my apps. The problem with TB not recognizing that I've downloaded Pro version remains however.

I'm having the same issues you are having with TB. It takes a very long time to get root permissions and it will not recognize my pro key either. It says "Reboot / See checkout.google.com". I found a thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13728994&highlight=titanium#post13728994 ) that has mention of what at least one person was able to do to get it working, but it's not working for me. My busybox is v1.18.4, but it's just not working.
Fixing permissions didn't do it for me, but I appreciate the response.
It's weird- the apps and data install fine. I run the apps and they seem to load alright but within 2 or 3 seconds they always FC.
It's very odd....
Thanks for the replies folks!
Titanium has been updated. Everything works great now.

[Q] Titanium Backup(The app itself) won't install or uninstall.

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.

androidpc not showing in market

hi
I bought and used to have the "androidpc" application, but after I installed MUIUXT Final V2 on my phone, it isn't showing in the market so I cannot install it again. I read other forums and also tried the market-enabler app, but none of them work. What else can I try? thanks
You can try Titanium Backup and see if that works, but you'll have to flash to whatever ROM you had before and then back it up. Reflash the Miui ROM and the open TB and restore. Maybe not though. Try to download TB and see if the market doctor will fix it (not sure if this is PRO or not but TB is well worth the $).
Also that app might not work on Miui roms, so that could be it as well.

[Q] How to auto-download and install all ur apps after flashing (without Titanium)?

Hi.
Ok, so check this out. Every time I flash a new ROM, I need to go into the MARKET and install all my apps (i don't use many, so it's not that time-consuming).
One day, I installed this GO LAUNCHER. When I flashed my rom again, in some magical way, all my apps were downloaded and installed (NOT restored, but re-installed fresh).
I do not know how the Go Launcher did this, since this happens before I even to to the market and install it after a fresh rom. Magic!
In any case, this stopped happening for some reason when I did my last flash (Weapon).
My question is - is there an APP that does this?
Again, i do NOT wish to RESTORE my apps. I wish for the MARKET to download all the apps was using (FRESH install them).
Is there a way to do this without GO Launcher?
Thanks
Whats supposed to happen is that Android is supposed to automatically download and reinstall your apps. The problem is that it doesn't always work. In fact, it has never worked correctly. Its really a hit or miss.
I think the reason is because everytime you do a fresh install of Android, it includes an old version (usually 2 or 3 versions back) of the Android Market. So the first thing it does is upgrade Market and I believe that is where it messes up with the restoring of apps.
ICS has supposedly fixed this issue.

THANK YOU!!!
Best way I've found is to make a backup of whatever rom you are on with all your apps and do a selective restore for the Data only from cwm, should put everything back including your google account.
I've done it many times between roms and have had no noticeable issues, but I can't guarantee you won't.
I haven't checked with a fresh rom install but i believe titanium can now push the updated version of software into the rom.
Meaning on your list you would see two listings of gmail.. The old and then the updated. If you pushed them into the rom and did a nandroid i wonder if the newer version of the app stays.

[Q] Titanium Backup Restore

I upgraded my MIUI rom to 2.2.17 and wanted to restore my apps using tb donate version. When I go to batch restore, a force close box pops up every time. I've already done a fresh wipe, fixed permissions, and installed busybox from the problems tab on tb, but none of them worked. Any solutions?
1. Is it a clean install of ROM?
2. Are you restoring only missing apps and data?

Is the root on for your MIUI...believe in the settings you have to turn it on, that would keep TB from working correctly.
I purchased the key via the market...best $$ spent, When ever I put a fresh ROM on, I install TB & key, and then reinstall my "apps only" not apps with data.
Titanium Backup
I plunked down the $$$ for the paid version. Never had any problems with the app.
I do know that when coming from a Froyo based Rom (or stock) to a GB based ROM you aren't supposed to restore apps and data. Just apps.
The one issue I've had with TB is that even though I restore all my apps, and they work fine, the apps are now disconnected from the Android market. Meaning the market no longer thinks I have them installed on my phone. Won't receive any updates when that is the case. I even tried the Market tools within the app. Those didn't resolve the issue.
I went from Stock Froyo to Infused 2.2.3 to Zeus v5. In both cases, I had to manually re-install my apps on the market. Not a huge deal, but an inconvenience.

There is an option is TiBu that allows you to attach the app to market. Try using it. It should solve your issue. It works for me for certain apps like dropbox and google voice that I don't want to upgrade. Turned it back on for google voice recently and it worked.
I could have swore that the op for miui said to never restore apps with tibu..could be wrong idk

Now that i think about it in qbking77 video tutorial he kinda made it out like you should should use other means of restoring...tibu last option and your right apps without data

One thing you can try - uninstall tibu (both paid & free) then reinstall in order - free, then key. I've had issues where app "keys" seem to get installed first and the app won't wort properly.
