[Q] Nandroid data recovery

I have a Samsung Galaxy S Showcase, which is rooted, that I am trying to regain some data from that was stored in stock apps prior to attempting to install a new ROM. When I went to install the ROM I did the factory Reset and the data was lost. I have a MyBackup Root and a Nandroid backup. I tried doing a restore in the MyBackup Root app and it restored all of the apps except from the stock apps that came with the phone. Can anyone give any suggestions about how to recover the data? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

maybe this will help???
The easiest way to perform, restore or manage nandroid backups is to use ROM Manager. It is a free Android app that you download from the Android Market and use while running Android to schedule operations to be performed in recovery. It provides you with a GUI for installing ROMs as well as performing, restoring and managing backups. It does not perform the actions themselves but rather reboots the device into recovery after you have scheduled these actions, and then automatically performs them via recovery. For further information, check out our coverage of Android ROM Manager. Its interface makes using it a breeze as all the options are laid out very conveniently.

if you didn't backup that data seperately (like MyBackup or Titanium backup), you should get it from the nandroid backup i guess. its a bit more elaborate but shouldn't take too much time:
1] boot into recovery
2] make a nandroid/rom backup of the current state
3] restore your old nandroid/rom backup
4] boot into the old rom
5] backup the settings/apps/data you need from that rom with mybackup/titanium
6] boot into recovery
7] restore your new rom you just backupped in step #2
8] boot into your current rom
9] restore the settings/apps/data with mybackup/titanium.

Update
I tried to do an advanced restore on just the data partition via clockworkmod recovery, but it gets just so far into it and seems to lock up. Then I have to reboot into recovery.

[Tutorial] Back-Up & Restore from a Android Device - Unrooted & Rooted Methods

[Tutorial] Back-Up & Restore from a Android Device - Unrooted & Rooted Methods
How to backup & restore all your
data, contacts etc..... on your
Android device running a Non-
Rooted STOCK ROM
*******************************
************
MyBackup
MyBackup works as a perfect
backup & restore utility for Non-
Rooted (as well as ROOTED)
devices running the Android
OS......
The app can be downloaded from
Play Store here : https://
play.google.com/store/apps/
details?id=com.rerware.android.
MyBackup&feature=search_result
(FREE VERSION)
Once installed open the
application and tap the Backup
button, an option will pop up
asking wether you want to backup
your apps or data.....
When you backup your apps via
MyBackup, you will be presented
with an option of either selecting
certain apps you want backed up
or all your apps......
With backing up your DATA you
backup either straght to your
SDCard or to a Online server, for
later restoring..... same with the
app menu you can choose what to
backup or backup the your entire
data on the ROM, when backup is
complete it will create a ZIP file
on you SDCard.......
You can also have a backup
scheduled for a certain time ,
which is a great feature to have
especially if you forget to backup
sometimes.........
To Restore you can simply tap on
the RESTORE button and restore
what you want........
*******************************
************
Manual Drag and Drop
Drag & dropping files from your
Android device whilst connected
to the PC is a easy & fuss free way
of backing up data, contacts,
images and other SD Card data.....
Take a few minutes of your time
to save yourself the heartache if
something unfortunate happens to
your Android device.
******************************
How to backup & restore all your
data, contacts etc..... on your
Android device running a Custom
ROM with Custom Recovery MENU
or Backup Software
Nandroid backup
For ROOTED Users, you will
obviously have a Custom Recovery
installed with your ROM..... As
with most Nandroid recovery
systems you can backup & restore
all data right from this menu.......
There are many custom recoveries
available the most common one
being the ClockworkMod Recovery, Just boot into
the recovery console, tap on the
backup/restore tag, usually
through the menu Backup and
restore > Backup or restore...
To Restore follow the same
method as backup option, boot
into Recovery Mode and select
Backup and restore > Restore.
*******************************
************
Titanium Backup
Another option for rooted Android
users is Titanium Backup.
Titanium Backup gives you direct
access to your system. If you have
not used this program before
make sure to read all release notes
and methods of using the program
as mistakes can be made....
Once you’ve launched the app,
click on the Backup/Restore tab
and click the Menu button on your
phone. From the menu that
appears, select Batch. At the next
menu, click [RUN] Backup all user
apps + system data. You can
choose to backup just your user
apps and system data but you can
choose a complete and total
backup of your phone.
Depending on how much of your
phone you’ve chosen to back up,
the initial backing up process can
take anywhere from a few minutes
to half an hour or even more. Just
like a Nandroid backup, you can
opt to copy the backup file to your
computer. Navigate to the /
Titanium Backup directory on your
device’s SD card and you can find
your backup there, ready for
safekeeping.
When you’d like to restore your
backup, you can enjoy the same
Batch function. Select Menu >
Batch. On the Backup/Restore
menu, scroll down to find restore
options.

is possible integrate apk's in firmware?

Hello everyone, I would like to restore often doing some apk in the rom that I have already installed, so if I do a factory data reset I find myself these integrated programs in the rom. I tried using Titanium Backup to create me an update zip but even if I flashed to restore the programs disappear. I remembered that you could do with titanium .... my questions are 2
1. if you can do it with titanium shown me step by step how to do?
2. there is a program to do these zip to flash that remain on forever?
thanks 1000

I don't know how to do that with Titanium Backup because i do not use it.
But you can make a flashable zip file of the (fresh flashed) firmware with cwm and integrate the apk's you want afterwards into the zip.
Maybe this gives you an idea.

Not tried on my Moto G (not really had the desire or need to deviate from stock), but on my rooted Tablet I use Titanium to
1 ) Integrate System App updates (e.g. Maps, Playstore etc) into the System partition - via the Batch Actions menu, under Move/Integrate.
2 ) Convert User Apps to System Apps - if you long press on the app on the app listing screen it shows a pop up menu - the last choice is 'Convert to system app'.

On my old phone I used RootExplorer and copied the file into the system and set the permissions. It might need a reboot after too. I didn't used it with updated apps but I prefer to keep things stock in that way.

A few questions - Nandroid back up - Disable System update/notification

Hello folks.
Slowly but surely getting my nord ready.
I installed xxxnolimits and have a few questions.
1) Nandroid/Backup - what are my options here as I see TWRP does not fully work yet. Also I will have parallel apps installed.
Is there a way to backup with parallel apps? TWRP used to give an error.
Titanium backup - will backups made on titanium backup be safe and still work when restored? Is this my only option of a "backup" at present?
2) Is there a way to disable system update and system update notification - I used to to it in titanium but ive read that wont work on current android versions.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Hi!
My Nord is unable to restore apps with Titanium in android 10.
The new app called "migrate" is the best alternative to save all your apps, data, permissions and more.
This app make a flashable zip for your twrp companion (for a new clean rom install) or direct flash (like magisk) to reinstall your apps without reinstall a new rom.
You need others apps for direct flash: "migrate flasher" and "migrate helper".
Find all stuff in google store.
The full backup work on the (new) last version of twrp for the Note (exclude user data).
Migrate and twrp is best solution to make a full full backup
For remove system update, use a debloater terminal (magisk module) to remove com.oneplus.opbackup package or just disable it by this command:
Code:
su
pm uninstall --user 0 com.oneplus.opbackup
No more update notification after that.
It's possible to remove update menu in your settings menu:
Use a setting editor on edxposed or other source (magisk, root app,... ?? I don't know if exist)
Bonus: use oxygen updater on play store and you able to find the last fw for you and flash it in ota without remove root stuff.
Bye!

I got my Nord a few days ago and restored all my (200+) apps from my previous phone with TB. At first try it couldn't restore some apps but disabling Verify apps over USB in dev mode fixed it.

I made backup through the adb backup command. Because any recovery backup solutions is unavailable and backups from the apps can't be restored if my phone is in brick mode or on bootloop.
