Anyone know of a good backup program that restores applications SILENTLY?
I just tried Titanium and restoring 44 apps is a pain. Maybe I'm missing the option? Also a little disappointed some apps couldn't be restored.
I think I heard App Monster is good. Suggestions?
Thanks

I did batch. It prompted to install every single application.

Then you did it wrong.
He didn't do anything wrong, he is just using the free version. OP, the free version requires that you manually restore each app. The paid version does it all automatically. Totally worth the couple bucks.

+1 This is an essential app and is absolutely worth the small price.

Thank you, I did not know that. I guess I'll dish out the money for the paid version.
Silent installation (i.e. not requiring confirmation for each app) - requires to root your device.

Has anyone noticed that the stock G2x comes with some LogMeIn packages(com.logmein.rescue and com.logmein.rescuesecurity) already installed? Anyone know what they are there for? I've yet to see anywhere that I could make use of them, which makes me wonder if they're there for LG or other companies to gain access for whatever reason.

So why is it on my phone with no app in the app drawer associated with it? I don't like the sound of it...
Might be draining some battery as well

Okay, so T-Mobile is including Logmein Rescue so they can access your machine for support. Personally, I backed it up and deleted it with Titanium Backup. No need for that crap. Everything is working fine.
The two apps are:
com.logmein.rescue 6.3.246
com.logmein.rescuesecurity 6.3.246
Thanks, I just froze them using titanium backup.

I removed them the first day I got the phone. Just use Root Explorer to delete them. I didn't like the sound of it either.
There is a thread about which apps you can delete, like the Tmobile crap, EA Store, games, etc. I posted what the app name was compared to the store and what I deleted without any recourse.
I removed a dozen probably.

<3 Amazon freebie paid apps!!
So far I've netted Plants vs. Zombies, Gaia GPS, Pac-man, Mahjong pro, and now watchdog!
Haha. Good call. I had a feeling a thread would show for this.
When I opened amazon and saw watchdog, I swear, the 'get app' button practically pushed itself.
It's days like this that make checking the daily free app of the day on amazon pay off.
Get it, people.
I look at amazon apps every day and I get the free ones even if I don't need them. Todays was a great find though

A little off topic but search appstore reminder in the forums and you'll find an app that will pop up a notification at a chosen time of what the free app is

It will have you add a payment option to your account, but the free apps are never charged to the card.
Once you've added the payment option, it won't ever ask for it again, unless you purchase a paid app.
It's Amazon's way of covering their rearends.

Yes. This is what discourages me from using Amazon App Store. So I turn on 1 click, do the purchase, and turn it back off right away. Amazon does not refund. So very high chance of accidental purchases that would not be refunded.
When I first installed the Amazon app store, I download an always free app. I didn't like it, so I uninstalled it. Now it is always in my apps list with the option to install it. Does anyone know how I can remove it? I tried searching for an answer but can't find one.

I trust you guys and want to download it, but I really don't want to install it until I understand what it is and how to use it. I haven't figured out how to download apps without installing them yet.

Amazon works differently, while market installs apps when you click Ok, amazon downloads the app and then asks for install... You can just cancel it.
Or if you are scared then install and remove immediately after that using easy uninstaller app.

If I download the app and hit cancel, would I need to navigate to it with a file explorer like Astro and click to install it? Or, will canceling cause the app not to be saved? How is Easy Uninstaller different from the stock uninstaller, other than how you can uninstall more than one app at a time?

There really is no reason to post a comment like this, because what it says is... you don't trust us.
Fine, I'm not hurt. Really, I'm not.
You don't have to trust anyone here. But you sure seem to when receiving other advice in the numerous threads you've posted asking for our help. Now you're not so sure... Lol
Just go read about it on the market. Check how many times watchdog lite has been downloaded, and read the reviews people have posted on its market page.
And then make your own informed decision.
I recently rooted my TF for three reasons, Netflix, Hulu Plus and adhoc networks.
But there is probably more that I can do... what do you suggest?

TiBu backs up my data perfectly fine for all my games (i.e. saved checkpoints, progress, local high scores). Are you sure you're restoring everything properly? I'm not talking down I'm just saying from time to time I don't restore app+data. Every now and then too I need to restore data only after a restore because the data doesn't stick..what games are trying to restore?
Yea I am... games like zenonia (all 3) doesn't back up... I will try the program you use and see what happens... is it better than titanium

hahaha, its all good man! no worries, it is a weird abbreviation. I'm not near my phone (foolishly left it at home) so when I get back to my 2nd love I'll mess around with TiBu and see if there are any settings or something I do specifically that you might not..in the meantime I'll bump this up and see if anyone else who plays that game can shed some insight.
Thanks a lot bro

cool story? tell it again? You don't like to read the thread do you? lolol, OP is having a terrible time with TiBu, I agree though TiBu is the best way to go.
I tried to mess around with other back up apps and nothing seemed to be as user friendly and efficient as TiBu...I got a feeling its got more to do with the game then it does TiBu..sorry mate! Hopefully someone who plays the game can help ya out here!
I happened to have an issue with Titanium also. Was bothered that it did not restore apps to the sd card that were backed up from the sd card. It was brought to my attention that there was a setting in the preferences to do so. I also noticed many other new settings that were not there on a previous release when I looked last. There are a few about backing up app cache and external data that is not checked by default. Take a look in the preferences and there might be a setting to get your games fully backed up.
I'd hate to revive an old thread, but I'm having small problems with TiBu... It restores all save data, except for the online ID.
Do you have the newest version of TB?
I'd recommend you try restoring the app and then the data separately. That seems to work for me if the usual doesn't quite do the trick

Backup up apps is no problem, but when it's time to restore, is there any way to have it auto-restore everything? The way I did it now was I started the batch restore, but had to press install-done over and over again for each app. Is there any easier way to auto-restore?

Did you purchase program? also if you did you need to download the purchase before running if you wiped data
I'm using the free version from the market. I'm guessing the auto-restore a feature of the paid version?

done. syncing w/ dropbox now
Can also consider app2zip
It creates a flash able zip file of all your apps, no data though
Do you run any risk restoring apps and data or are you better off restoring just the apps? I thought I read somewhere it can get buggy restoring the data

If it's just app data, usually no problem
The problem is restoring system data
I like to be safe so that's why I opt for app2zip
I use Go Backup. In my opinion, it's much more intuitive, cleaner, and better looking than titanium. Plus, it's free

Buying Titanium was one of the best purchases I ever made for my devices. Well worth the price.
I love the "sync to dropbox". Didn't play around with it more to find out what else it does but that syncing makes it well worth the price.
