Tried to restore backed up apps with titanium backup and failed to restore apps on both builds. I used astro to manually restore apps instead, hopefully they iron this glitch out soon.

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.

Is there a way to get TiBU to NOT overwrite existing SMS/MMS when restoring?
IE, just merge in the backed up data?
If TiBU can't do it, is there a better app that can do BOTH sms/mms and merge-on-restore?
thanks a ton!
I like SMS backup and restore

Titanium Backup won't restore apps with large file sizes from my CWM backup. I forgot to take a batch backup before I installed the CMX rom by Bruce. TB restores some apps, but when it's going to restore a large app (like Temple Run or Riptide GP), The progressbar freezes. It won't go any further. I've tried to let it work for itself for about 1 hour, but the app just keeps restoring the same app it was restoring when I left the phone... Does anybody have any suggestions?
Could be your backup file is corrupt.

It has happened with my last 5 backups, too, so I think the problem lies in the app ..
Hmmm....yess.....what you say could be right.

Yep same thing here. Backed up Aralon HD, it backed up fine. But upon trying to restore it, it just says "restoring blah blah".. Forever. Also waited for around an hour like yourself, but nothing.

not necessarily big. some small app like realcacl also cannot be restore. just install from market and restore your data.

One method I've found that can work with some smaller apps is... after attempting to restore, clean the Dalvik... and then open Lucky Patcher, which removes any strays upon opening, automatically.
After this I've found they will install. But no luck doing this with apps that contain a large amount of data.

I found that in my case choosing the interactive install in tb showed me where the problem was, apperantly (don't know if it was tb or 4ext) there was a folder consuming an upwards of 500mb of data on my internal partition called ._cwm_restore I'm sure its not the same thing happening to everyone but its one thing that has a happened to me
I'm going to factory reset my note 2. I backed up my nova launcher settings but now what do I do? How do I get nova launcher settings back after I restore? Never done this crap before

Either take the backup file, or use something like Titanium Backup to backup the whole app.
You just need to make sure the file is saved in a place that won't be erased when you reset - so you could put it on your computer and then move it back.

What I do is backup my apps and data with titanium backup and then backup launcher and widgets and all the apps on my screens. After getting a new ROM or a factory reset restore apps and data from titanium backup and then do the nova restore and all will "poof" appear. I make a copy of the nova backup on my ext SD and copy it back over to internal if lost from reset.

Hello everyone, I restored the first backup of my LG-P999 through cwm to stock. I had already installed titanium backup after rooting my phone and before flashing roms. And now that I am back on this stock rom none of the apps i used to have running cm7 will show up in titanium backup. Is there a folder I could extract from my cm7 backup to get them all back? Also just curious because I will be getting a new phone soon and how I am going to get all my apps back.
Thanks in advance

In titanium under preferences go to backup folder location it has an option to automatically locate a backup folder or if you know where it is you can find it. Cm7 uses sdcard as primary storage, stock uses internal so it confuses titanium.
