[Q] TI flashing question - Samsung Infuse 4G

I recently flashed to dlevroms 5.0 2.3.4 , and before i did i backed up app+ data on TI titanium, but now that I m done flashing do I have to go through and install every app 1 by 1 or could I goto batch and hit restore all apps + system data? would restoring the system data mess up the new rom?

I normally just restore apps. You can restore apps and data, just not system data. App data is different than system data. SYSTEM DATA NO-NO.LOL

Titanium backup

When I restore my apps with titanium backup how do I get market to recognize them as installed so I can get automatic app updates?

hmmm, i think it does automagically. I have restored my apps 2-3 times and I did not have to do anything special.

Rather than making a new thread I'll post in here.
I was flashing some roms and backed up my apps at the wrong time in turn losing a lot of saved points in games and app settings. Can I just go back into one of my recent nandroid backups and copy the titanium backup files somewhere to replace the ones I don't want in my current rom? If so which ones?
The files your after are in the Titanium backup folder.

Lol this is obvious but which files do I need? There are several options in the nandroid folder like system, recovery, cache etc but their all img files? Again, I only have the files in my nandroid backup. My Titanium is setup to replace old files when a new backup is performed..
Thanks for any help in advance..

TB saves its stuff on the SD card, which is untouched by the usual Data/Cache/Dalvik wipes for a new ROM. Your most recent backups should be present no matter what.

OK lemme give some more info to help. I just got finished flashing my GB rom to replace my FR with all my settings widgets etc.. Once I had all the apps re-downloaded and thought I was ready to use titanium backup to restore all of my app data I accidentally did a backup instead, in turn REPLACING all of my original settings, saved games etc with just new games and all default bs..
So now, my ONLY option is to restore a backup I had previously when all my settings and games were where I liked them and then do another titanium backup to replace the new stuff. THEN, I have to restore my current GB nandroid to get back to my current ROM and then use titanium to restore my old stuff. The issue is finding which part of the titanium file I need from my Froyo backup to replace my GB backup.. Does that make sense lol?
I think I may figure it out but its trial and error.. I'll report back when and if I get it, just kinda sucks trying to do all this with root explorer and flashing everything over and over while at work..
If I'm doing this wrong please tell me but I am not seeing the easy way out in all of this..
You've got it right, do it just like that. Backing up / restoring Nandroids doesn't affect the SD card, but if you're paranoid you can unmount it. Restore nandroid, backup with TB, restore other nandroid, restore TB.

Will all app data successfully back up and restore?

I'm about to flash a new ROM, and I'm worried when I restore an app the data won't be there, I'm using titanium backup?

Restoring system app data won't work, but normal apps should.
Ultimatively it depends on the ROM you flash, more specific, what the update script of that ROM does.

Titanium back up saves your apps and data so when u restore it it restores both app and data so u will be fine. Won't need to start over.

Shadow gun backup

I installed and downloaded all the data of shadow gun game, and then i changed rom.. before flashing the new rom i did a backup of all my apps with titanium backup including shadow gun, but after flashing and restoring all my apps when i opened the game it said that i had to download all the data again :S i thought that titanium would make a backup of that and that i dont needed to download that again.. any help or solution?
Did you go back into tibu again and restore that app a second time? It will ask app data or both. Try data. If no use it to uninstall and reinstall

If you have cwm, make a nandroid backup of your data and after you flash a new ROM, restore that data through cwm, and presto you'll be back to playing shadowgun without having to re-download the game data.

but making a nandroid backup would restore the previous rom i had or not?
I have the same issue with Titanium backup.
My resolution is to restore the file SaveGameSinglePlayer0 into path "Android\data\com.incross.shadowgun.eng\files".
That file was extracted from a copy of the internal SD on my PC, Titanium doesn't bakup it.

Unlock bootloader without wiping data?

Flashing ftf is a must after unlocking, but is there a way to preserve data ? I mean my phone will not get wipe

Try not to wipe cache and user data when flashing through Flashtool.
If you can't boot to system without wiping userdata, the best way is backup via Titanium Backup before unlocking bootloader.
If I'm not wrong, Internal SD wouldn't get wiped, only /data partition. But it's better to take backup of your Internal SD first.

I don't get what you mean about the "data" :|
Is it Contact, SMS, etc? Backup using My Backup/ My Backup Pro: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackup
App & Game? Backup using Titanium Backup

Ahh I see..
For system app backup, you need to restore it manually one by one, don't use batch action.
FC is normal for restoring system app, but after reboot, FC is gone.
If you want to move updated app from /data to /system partition.
You can use Batch action "Integrate update of system apps into ROM"
Again, it's normal if FC happen, just reboot your phone after finished integrating the update.
