Well I thought this would be straight forward but apparently I am missing something. I just rooted/installed GummyCharged 1.9.1 and I put Titanium Backup on the phone. I then copied my Titanium backup folder from my old phone (which was backed up on my PC) and thought I could just restore the apps, but apparently that is not the case. It is not seeing any of the apps.
What am I doing wrong? All the files appear in File Manager, but nothing is showing up in TiBu. Any ideas?
To backup just go into TB and the backup/restore tab, hit the menu button and click Batch, then backup all your apps/system data. To restore do the same thing but from the Batch menu click restore, it worked fine for me and I just switched ROMs today.

I know how to use it, I used it all of the time on my Fascinate. My problem right now is that I just copied the contents of what was in my TiBu folder on my Fascinate's SD card to the Charge's SD card and when I try and do the Batch Restore, it shows 0 apps to restore.
EDIT: Nevermind, I got it working. It was either the reboot that fixed it or the fact that I had to check USB debugging. So one of those fixed it.
Thanks!
Probably USB debugging, TB always tells me to enable it but i never do. Glad you got it to work

Hi, pretty newbie to use Titanium backup here. I did fully backup after i installed, so everything saved in the sd folder, no problem. then i copied the folder to the pc. for trying some new rom, i wiped everything, even partitioned sd after wiping. after flashing and other setup, i re-installed titanium backup. To restore everything, i copied the folder from pc to sd then(folder name exactly match the main page shows in titanium), but it seems titanium didnt "reconize" those backup files. I mean, for the option in the menu-->batch, the counts for "Verify all your backup", or "Restore all your backups" doesn't match what i used to have.
So what should I do now for restore? did i miss some settings? Thanks in advance for instruction.
nv mind, it seems i figured it out

care to enlighten us as to how you figured it out mate?
I successfully flashed serendipity 6.3 to my phone. Before I did i backed up all apps and data with titanium backup and copied that folder to my computer desktop in case i needed it later. So i downloaded titanium backup from the market again and it didnt have any of my files. So I copied the folder from my desktop to my phone and it still doesnt have my apps so I can't restore them. Am i doing something wrong?
Make sure usb debugging is enabled, make sure busy box is installed, make sure titanium folder is on root of sd

unless you have rebooted, you need to hit the menu button while in titanium backup, click more, and click RELOAD APPLICATION

I used Titanium Pro to back up all the apps and bloatware on my G2X. When I try to restore any of the ones I have un-installed the restore option is not there. I think it may have something to do with the external - internal sd card. I also keep loosing the icons to some of my apps (the ones on sd) inside the folder on my home screen. How do I restore these apps that I have backed up??
Ps I have used titanium many times on my rooted cliq with no problems.
my backups are on the internal sd.i've restored a few times with no problem i haven't updated mine though. using an older apk. i've read people are having issues here and there with titanium. so i'm sticking with my old version.

IMHO Titanium Backup has always been great with user apks, but very lacking with system apks. I'm not sure if it's trying to actually "install" system apks or what, but I've never had any luck with it.
Anyway, you should be able to just push the apks back to your /system/app/ from one of the roms or backups you can find here.
Have you checked the path to the folder that your backups are in with TB?
There is an option to change it in settings. You may have to reboot after changing it.
gonna give that a shot. Thanks.
Having trouble with my Titanium Backup. I backed up all my user apps + data, wiped and installed a new ROM. After getting it back up w/ new ROM, market, install titanium (w/ pro key) and go to restore apps. None of my backups show up. Batch > "Restore missing apps with data", shows 0 apps. When I go Preferences > Backup folder location it shows the folder (mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup) with all my backups it in, even says "This folder contains 62 backups".
Any help on how to restore these would be greatly appreciated.

On the folder location screen choose detect and choose whole phone. It will search for the directory your backups are in. If that doesn't work then i'm guessing you may have formatted the location where your backups existed.
Try this..

What happens when you install CM7 is that the sdcard directory now points to your external sd card rather then the internal that comes with the phone.
the internal is now at /mnt/emmc
Get root explorer and you will see what I'm talking about.
Once you have root explorer just copy the titanium backup folder from /mnt/emmc to /sdcard and you should be able to restore all user apps with data... however DO NOT restore system data from stock to CM7... big headaches.
Hope this helps!

Hi, a few hours ago i backed up everything on my phone with TB. The backup went fine (though slower than usual) and the folder that should have the backup contains everything it shoul.
Then I flashed my phone (I9100, westcrip ICS) and I couldn't restore any of the apps nor data (TB said that there's 0 to restore)
So after flashing back to the Rom I was using previously I hoped to get my data back but still TB is saying that I have nothing to restore even though I still have a folder with my TB backup.
Please help, kind of panicking
EDIT: Fixed it ^^" Had to move all the backup files into the folder that the app created (even though mine was labelled the exact same and I deleted the app-made one)
False alarm
in the future u don't have to move the apps, just change the storage location under settings. I was actually going to recommend this until I read ur edit. Glad u got it sorted
Also next time, remember to back up the ROM as well ;-)
Yes, back up the Rom. One of the best but least talked about feature is the ability to restore an App directly from a Nandroid Backup on the SD-Card.
So just the other night I flashed Synergy r66 on my phone and I have already done this once before but still followed the steps provided. After it loaded once, I opened up Titanium Backup to get my apps back and I realized that the backup I created was gone. It had been deleted by something. I then check my rom manager app which not to my surprise, had its backup deleted as well. I am entirely confused on why this would happen. I am also having problems viewing my extsdcard in any application. It shows up under storage in the settings but when I try and make the backup directory on my ext card, it doesn't show the folder for it.

What recovery are you using and are you sure you didn't tell it to format your sd card.
If you connect to your pc can you see it?
