[Q] titanium backup - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone tried copying their titanium backup folder from their Droid phone, pasting it into their xoom root, loading the titanium app to the xoom, and loading apps from their phone over to the xoom?

I have not tried this so I am not certain, but I do not think this will work.
Especially since alot of apps arent running on honeycomb

Aslong as the app works in honeycomb this will work fine.

How can you tell if an app will run on honeycomb or not? I have ordered a new xoom but haven't received it yet.

You typically learn something doesn't work, when it just doesn't do what it's supposed to. Like when your flying down the road, and are coming to a stop sign or some crap, and you hit your breaks and nothing happens and fiery death ensues. Your breaks didn't work, and you found out by getting your ass wrecked.

You can also try to search the marketplace for the apps when you get your xoom. If they show up they should work.

Thanks.

Anyone know how to take the at&t widgets off the widget list?

Anyone know how to take the at&t widgets off the widget list? Im on a Captivate rooted, (oclf) and have root explorer (if that matters).

You can use root explorer to delete the files associated with them or titanium backup will also remove system apks. Just be sure you know what the names are, some can be quite cryptic.
The files are in system/app directory but some apps also have other files associated with them.
Titanium backup has a feature where you can freeze them which essentially disables them and you can defrost thus reenabling should you find you made an error or change your mind.

I've tried TB, but for some reason, it slowed my phone down. I can try it again. When they are froze, will that eliminate them from the widget list?

So as soon as you hit "freeze" it does its thing, then you can choose the next app? Maybe I should haver restarted my phone or something after untangling TB.

Hey there,
If you happen to be running Launcher Pro, you can hit Menu - Preferences - General Settings - Hidden Apps. Here you can check what you don't want to see in your apps list.
As far as Titanium Backup goes, I've never tried the Freeze option - I've just deleted what I didn't want (as long as I knew what it was!)
Hope this helps!

Yeah that helped I been hiding that apps with LP, but I figured everything out using TB. I just went ahead and bought it. Thanx everyone for your input!

Then I screwed up and got excited about the google movies and download the new google video's. Rented Battle LA and started to play. then BAM... "cant access this video with a rooted device"... What a bunch of horse ****!!!.. I really hope someone figures a way around this.

Had the same issue. Just went in to app manager and cleared data on the market app and rebooted the phone for good measure. Once the phone booted up I acceptef the market t&c and went back to my apps. Still could update so I just left it alone. A few minutes later I noticed the app updates available icon in the notification area and clicked on it. Once I selected the app that need to be updated it gave me the opotion to update, instead of open, or uninstall.
Dunno if I like the ui...kinda hard to navigate and find stuff.
It sure is a major change, almost wp7ish.
Guess I will get used to it.

Hulu Plus

New APK...Try this, it is working alright so far ... Feb 2012
HuluPlus
Old Method..
All credits goes to huntken, i'm just posting here. Works on my transformer. I'm running Prime 1.7. Original thread here..
http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?t=2526
Directions:
1. Delete Hulu Plus if you have it installed already.
2. Delete any backups you may have of it in Titanium Backup.
3. Get Titanium Backup if you don't already have it.
4. Download this file here: and unzip it, there will be 3 folders in it.
5. Place all 3 folders in the sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder
6. Launch Titanium Backup and restore the backup.
7. Enjoy?
And of course I'm not responsible for anything that goes wrong and blah blah blah.
PLEASE NOTE: You can't use "Ad Free" or anything that modifies hosts for this, or the videos won't load.
This worked perfect on my transformer running prime 1.7

When I extract there's 3 files not folders?
Do you have to be a plus subscriber to access the free stuff? Is there a different app for that or something? The free stuff on the Hulu Plus app only has a mere handful episodes and just 1 movie. Otherwise it works awesome. Thanks.

Free stuff is web only I am afraid. Gotta pay to play
I would if I could. I'm in canada. I watch the free stuff on my PC thru a proxy. It sucks using the browser to play it on the tf. If I didn't need to have a credit card address in the US I'd subscribe. Netflix works for me though. Both US and Canadian sites with the patch. That will do for now I guess.

Sorry forgot to say my thanks.
Thanks Alex (and of course huntken). This has pretty much fulfilled my wishes for this tablet. It would be nice if they finally get around to make it tablet optimized, but beggars can't be choosers (which is funny enough because I actually pay for their service, lol).
Now let's get some more high quality games on this thing
When i downloaded the file and unzipped the file inside was one a hulu proprieties and 2 more zip files. do i unzip them as well or just place them in the Titanium Backup folder? thanks

just place the 3 files in the titanium backup folder and refresh the app list in TB, if it doesn't show, reboot the TF, it will be near the bottom of the list corssed out, just click on it and restore.
works like a charm on my TF running revolver 2.1
Thanks it works on the rooted stock TFs

Same problem and have try uninstall reboot ect like you but still no go. You guys restoring app only our app + data?
Apps + data worked well for me. There was someone over in the nookcolor forum who edited the Netflix app to work in landscape. It works great and I use it all the time. I might ask him if he can do the same for this app.

FPse emulator

Does anyone know how to back up the FPse emulator data? I had to restore my phone to a previous date and couldn't back my emulator data up. I lost a month and a halves worth of work from my ff7 game. I was pretty pissed when I found out everything was erased! So is there a way to back up the emulator data to prevent this in the future if I ever need to restore again?
Also, the games save have nothing with the actual games. They save somewhere else. I think it has something to do with the emulator itself.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Have you tried to backup the data by any means? Try Titanium Backup.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I'm rooted and running CM7. I have clockworkmod recovery too. Making a back up of my phone is not an issue. I need to back up the emulator itself in its current state.
I have tried copying the emulator itself to my sdcard and still no luck. Which I thought would have solved the issue, but that wasn't the case. So I was thinking maybe there is data from the emulator somewhere on my phone I could back up.(no idea where/how to or I wouldn't be asking!)
I had to restore to a previous back up because I downloaded something and my phone stared getting all wacky. Then a week down the line, the app market wouldn't work. Facebook app and on the browser were blocked. Only on my phone. I tried on a friends phone, and i had no problem signing in.
Just in case something like this happens again, or if ever needed for any reason; I don't want to have to restore and lose a hella game time time.

It will back up *the apk and related data* just tell it to update the backup when you're asleep.

No, a full backup takes five minutes, I was meaning to say that you should make a schedule for it to do that, though I am not sure if you can specify only one app for it to update, but I've also never tried it either.
Edit: ok, just checked can't do it for only one app,.but I reccomend using it to back up your apps and data anyhow. If you're on GB and staying there you can also backup system data.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Yeah I'm on GB and staying. I've thought about switching to ICS but heard there are lots of kinks that need to be worked out. Maybe ill try it sometime in the future, when a stable version is released.
Up until now, backing up the system data was done on my Linux box. I just use CWM to make a back up, then store the back up on my Linux box. Titanium will make it that much easier.
I'm gonna check titanium out tonight. Thanks again man!

Anyone know how to transfer save-states or memory card data to a pc (to use with ePSXe)?
I'd love play Symphony of the night on my phone, and continue on, on my computer, then back again.
I can automatically sync folders with Dropsync, but I don't know where the files are.

Well, it would either save on the SD card or with the app data. Try googling it, I hae a hunch someone has asked the exact same question before, maybe not on XDA's G2x forum, per se, but somewhere.
Warlock, nvm I misread your post. But I have tried the titanium app and its pretty cool. Now all I have to do now is restore my phone and figure out how to restore the data
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Ok, I figured it out. I couldn't find them because they are hidden. You need root explorer to access them.
The memory cards on the phone is located at:
data\data\com.emulator.fpse\files\memcards
-copy 'slot1.mcd' to the PC.
-rename it to 'epsxe000.mcr' and put it in the memcards folder in epsxe
-and to get it back to the phone, do the opposite, name it back to 'slot1.mcd' and put it in the folder it came from.
Despite the different extensions, both the android and windows emulators will read the memory cards fine, as long as the name is right.
Cool, so you could play on your PC, save, slap it on your SD card and play on your phone. Maybe it's time I dust off one of my Resident Evil discs. STARS!
Warlock, I tried doing the dame thing. That is essentially backing up the emulator data. So if I ever lost my emulator data I would never lose the spot in the game I am at. I have seen in a bunch of different places that the data would be in the data folder. Oddly, my data folder is empty and has always been empty. Should it be? I even changed the file path of the memory card on my emulator to save to my sdcard. I took a look at it after a save point in FF7 and it was 0kb big.....empty. or was it?

Yeah, that was the problem I was having initially. I gather that you can't see anything inside the 'data' folder with a regular file explorer, you have to use the 'root explorer' app. (I assume your phone has to be rooted to use this).
I'll also add a handy shortcut within Root Explorer. You can bookmark folders, so its really easy to jump to the memcards folder and back to where you want to back them up to. Just long press on the folder you want to bookmark.
Yeah I'm using the regular file manager that came with CM7. I feel really dumb for not thinking about this before. I am rooted so all I had to do was open a terminal and navigate to the data folder lol its not as easy on the eye as a GUI would be but I still don't know why I didn't think of this earlier?! Anywho, ill check out the root explorer app you have suggested. Thanks for the file path to the game data too!

Has anyone tried this app out on the TF101.
Silly EA seems to have prevented us from downloading the app officially from the market. Yet people say it works on the prime???? Even dumber, I can downloading on my ol' school t-mobile G2.
I though about buying it on my G2, then doing a Titanium Backup over to the TF101.
Has anyone tried it, doing something simular?
I got it to work on my Transformer, no fiddling necessary.

You know what, it just randomly started working. I kept checking cause since I paid for it it was never playable. Then it started working one day.
So yes then I used TB to carry it over.....but it has stoped working again.....that and a few other games.......

Just restore .apk from TI backup.
If the game checks device info (Eg. Gameloft):
This method can be used for Gameloft games: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25509954#post25509954 So I'm sure one can be derived for other apps.
Another method is to modify your Device ID to something like the galaxy nexus in the Build.prop file. This does change your whole device, though.
All requires Root.
