Is there an app that can save the placement of my icons before flashing a new rom? Instead of having to resetup my app shortcuts after restoring from titanium backup after flashing a new rom.

Depends on the ROMs, if both ROMs have ADW then there are backup options in ADW. But I don't think you can with sense roms.
Giving "My Backup Root" a try since it has an option to backup system settings. I figure the worst it can do is cause some fc errors & I'll have to reflash & do it manually.

system settings are not the same as launcher settings. 99.99999% sure it will not work properly, if you are going from one rom to a completely different rom. if all you are doing is updating from version 1 to version 2 of the same rom, as long as the rom uses the same base, you dont have to wipe data, which means your launcher, apps, and settings will remain intact
depends on your launcher though as already suggested.
Greatly dependent on the Rom and Launcher. MIUI backup offers built in desktop backup. And something like Adw would also offer this within the settings. Im not familiar with antithetical launcher bit I would imagine many of them offer this.

How to install:
(Thanks to ebatr8)
Download the zip from here, unzip the folder and copy all three files (com.hulu.plus-20110723-192253.properties, com.hulu.plus-20110723-192253.tar.gz, com.hulu.plus-bcc9ed16094d067c4c1f3ceb8851f886.apk.gz) into your Titanium Backup folder on your SDcard. Once all three files have been copied start up Titanium Backup and make sure you refresh your app list in case it was running in the background. Go to backup / restore and look for the Hulu Plus 1.0.116 app and click on restore -> App+Data. Once you have installed do not open, let it go back to Titanium Backup to finish copying over the data. Once complete you can exit TB and start running Hulu Plus.
Known bugs and workarounds:
(Thanks to Gunkk)
Problem : I am getting a Buffering.....it appears you are having network issues.
Fix: Check to make sure you do not have AdFree running, if you do turn it off and see if that fixes the problem
(Thanks to robotnoize)
Problem : If you are running a ROM that already comes with AdFree you will get the buffering issue.
Fix : Reinstall AdFree and then disable and it should work fine (Confirmed working with Android Revolution)

The apk works to browse, but you'll get an unsupported device message as soon as it boots. Nobody has cared enough to modify build.prop or the apk itself (which I don't encourage) since it came out.
You need to use titainium back and restore this app with its data then log in to your account and you should be good to go, it came from the Droid inc 2 forums, unzip and put into the titainium back up folder after you have installed titainium backup and gave it root permissions

It is a backup from a hulu plus supported phone since its already checked for compatibility it lets use it no issues

I've restored it on just about every Rom on this forum, run the batch that says restore all apps with data make sure the app+data bubble is selected for just the hulu plus apk and it should work oh and make sure all three files in the zip are in the titainium folder but not in its own folder

Which is one of the great things about a development community, especially a great one like XDA. We don't have to wait for "THEM" to support us, we have each other to support "US".

I've been flashing roms for a little while now and using titanium backup to speed up the process. Does anyone know why some apps will constantly force close after restoring a backup thru TB? Its fixed only by uninstalling the app and reinstalling the apk or from the market.

I have a very complicated widget set up, but I would like to try some evo 3d roms. I know someone is going to say don't have so many widgets, so I'll save that person the trouble. But is there any application, hack or trick that will restore full home screen after flashing a new rom? Someone must know something.
I use go launcher currently and I backup my home screen. But after the flash when I go to restore the backup it's not there! All the geniuses on this forum I know someone has the solution!
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I guess titanium backup might help you if you have rooted ur device. you can back up all ur apps (take home screen backup on go launcher) with data. Then after flashing new Rom restore ur apps. I guess go launcher will be restored with data(home screen backup). You can now restore home screen from back up that u had taken on go launcher. Not sure if this would help as i use launcher that comes with Rom i flash.

Nova launcher does this but there are risks with doing it. Android is not set up to allow it. Even with Nova it states that if you allow it then it can see everything that happens on the screen from then on.

No. You would have to set up nova from scratch and then save the backup

What he (or she!) said.
System Tuner Pro, Titanium Backup Pro Key and AppMonster Pro all work quite well. I'm partial to System tuner and AppMonster, as TiBu often hangs and needs to be FC'ed to keep the process moving.

Sounds like something wrong with your flash.
Download rom, verify MD5
Use TWRP 2.3.3.1
Wipe flash, dalvik, system, factory reset
Flash rom.
Don't overclock or alter Voltages.
Should work fine.
I tried that and this isn't the first time this happened. Also my texting is working

So don't restore. It's restoring system apps that aren't compatible with the current rom.
Nvm didn't see the part about tibu.
TB restore on system apps doesn't work. It will cause problems. What you could do if that's your only back up.. move the dialer apk for /data/app and then restore the TB file. It should work without fc then.
System apps are specific to each ROM due to their cache. Therefore causing fcs
