Hello I'm upgrading to the TF Prime soon, and I wanted to transfer some of my game saves from gta3, mc3, and gof2 over to my new tablet, since there is additional app data will titanium backup still work?
as long as you back up app+ data you should be fine if not jsut copy over the gta3 data should be located at /android/data/com.rockstar.gta3
it will not copy the game data but the install file, for games that require additional downloaded data, that data will need to be downloaded again, my experience is with gta3 and need for speed hot pursuit, which sucks because while nfshp worked previous, it now will not re download the game data, and many users are complaining in the comments, and it did work before now i can't finish my game

ya pretty much what i said you need to back up the app data from /android/data/
My data folder never got wiped out deleted, it still makes me download the data every time..but once it does it remembers my previous game save..go figure. I never have been able to just reinstall and play them..im sure you can, but the apk file that titanium backup saves is the install apk, not the launcher that actually launches the game..if you can figure out which file that is and save it it may work..i noticed there is a file called download.something or other created when you run the nfshp apk that titanium saves, i read somewhere that someone cracked the game for pirating and you have to delete this file and do some other stuff to install it without it prompting for download data..could be game specific but gta3 also made me dl the extra data sooooo i assume the work around method will be similar.
TB hasa setting to try and get the sdcard data; idk how well it works

I bought a game online and it gave me a .apk file which I installed on my phone. I have done this a few times (without going through Android Market).
In the past, I have updated these games with the new .apk, example Fruit Ninja, and lost all data. I am going to update a new game and don't want to lose data again... How can I prevent data loss? I hate restarting games after months of playing it!
I am rooted if that helps because someone told me to try Titanium Backup but that never worked. I installed the new file, then did a data restore. I can't open the new game...
Thank goodness it let me restore my data and app that I had before.
I have just gotten my girlfriend's G2X today... rooted it immediately, installed Titanium Backup, and tried to restore my Angry Birds backups (from G2) to her new G2X. This failed -- apps wouldn't open.
After some trouble, I was finally able to get the apps to install from the Market, but attempts to restore my data backups crash the apps.
She really likes Angry Birds, and has been playing it a lot on my phone, so I'd really like to restore it to her phone...
Has anyone else run into a similar problem? If so, did you find a fix? Does Angry Birds write to a partition that isn't available on the G2X? I'm a bit lost as to what the issue may be.
No other problems have been noted thus far. The N64 emulator runs great on the G2X... I was having some fun with GoldenEye 007!
No idea. I was able to successfully backup my Angry Birds levels via Titanium from my Nexus One and restore them to my Nook Color.
Maybe you could try drilling down to the individual files. Using Root Explorer I see that we have /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files. All the info about the levels you completed is in highscores.lua. There is additional information in settings.lua which appears to include Golden Eggs and other stuff.
It's conceivably possible that your crashes are coming from the file stored in /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/lib which may be device-specific. E.g. if you install Angry Birds on a dual-core device versus single-core, it loads up different hardware-related libraries.
So yeah, try copying the .lua files from your saved games to a safe place, and then reinstall AB from scratch. Play a level, make sure it works, then replace the .lua files with your backups.
Buy an app from the market that backs up the file or do it the free way and use adb to pull the file from data data angry birds somewhere.look around.google it tells you which file is the back up

dont tell her you did this, but this will make her happy.
download angry cheaters, you can set the the high scores and level completion for Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons. Go through and match all her scores from the G2.
Problem solved.

my girlfriend loves it too and was devastated when i wiped my phone and she lost all of it. so now i do this when i forget to back up. everytime a new season comes out i use it to unlock all the levels so if she gets stuck on one, she can play the rest.

this is possible. but it requires the data the game is possible. ive accidentally wiped my phone SO many times that make-shift app backups have become a specialty.
find the folder (can't rememver which it is) stored on internal/external memory on the original device. Remember when you had to go through that download at the beginning of the app? copy that to the same place of your new device, and load the game. its not perfect and it hasnt always worked for me, but there are other times where ive gotten ALL my golden balls, but no items, or vice versa.
its worth a shot.
Is anyone else unable to install any version of angry birds without their phone rebooting?
EDIT: I found out that my problem was when installing them from titanium backups from my N1

Not sure where these problems are coming from; I used TB to backup my apps from the Eris, and all of them including angry birds ported over just fine, including the save data.

I had my apps installed on my sdcard from my nexus one so when I restored them they went to the external card that the g2x isn't able to store Apps on. I was able to delete the files and only then install them.

For some reason my apps and data from my G2 would not restore on my G2X. I used titanium and mybackup on the G2 to create backups. But my G2X would not read the backup files. Probably incompatibility issue?

Use a file explorer or mount over USB to copy your backup folder/files from external SD to internal SD and try restoring again.. that's what I had to do to get mine working.

This is what pissed me off. I haven't been able to get it to restore properly. I've tried taking the individual files, and haven't had any success. I could flash three times a day with my mt4g, and never lose anything. I was ranked around 900 something the last I checked.
I spent about a day and a half trying to restore the Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons data from the Titanium BackUps off my Nexus One. I gave up.
I went back to my Nexus One and used MyBackup Pro to back everything up and, after getting the same results as when I used Titanium for a couple hours, it finally worked. The problem is, I have no clue what I did different or why it finally worked.
There seems to be some magic number or some magic combination of downloading the app, opening the app, restoring the data and restarting the phone. I do know that I could not use any of the backed up APKs from MyBackup Pro or the phone crash/rebooted. I had to download the app from the market and then only restore the data from MyBackup pro...and again, it didn't work the first time. Lots of uninstalling the data and app and starting from scratch. Download. Restore. Reboot. Rinse. Repeat.
So it is possible...but I'm sorry I don't know exactly how.
I previously had a vibrant and I got mine back no problem. I installed each version fresh from the market/amazon app store then used titanium to restore 'data only'. Worked like a champ on all 3 versions.
restore of Angry Birds
I had the same issue - so I did the following
1) Install Angry birds from market
2) Install Angry Birds Rio from Market
3) Install Angry birds Seasons from Market
4) Launch each game and complete the first level
5) For Seasons, complete the first level in each season
6) launch Titanium and do a restore of just user data not the application
This prserved all my golden egss and settings - good luck
Solution
Here is a solution to restore high scores to a fresh install of Angry Birds. Unzip your Angry Birds backup from TitaniumBackup/com.rovio.angrybirds-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxx.tar
You need two files in this archive, settings.lua and highscores.lua. They are located in /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files/
Put those file on your phone in the same directory, /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files/
You can do this using root explorer to copy/paste the files there, or simply by using adb to push the files using the commands:
adb push settings.lua /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files/
adb push highscores.lua /data/data/com.rovio.angrybirds/files/
The above commands assume that you have adb in your path and are in the current directory containing your .lua backup files.
If you have not yet played Angry Birds on your new phone this method will result in a permission denied error. Simply play one level of angry birds and repeat the above solution.
I have TB Pro and used it to back up NBA Jams. But after flashing a new rom, when I restore the app it goes back online to re-download the 300 megs or however big it is from EA's site. But more important, I lose my saved progress. I like this game a lot, but I'm constantly flashing new roms, so it's a PITA to have to start fresh on that game after each flash.I'm hoping there's some way to back up all the games data, but I'm coming up blank with my attempts.
Try to look for save game files on sd card, because they are usally stored there.
App data is typically stored in /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/[package-id]
(where [package-id] is typically something like "com.something.appname"). A few apps will store data in /data/data/[package-id], so check there too if it isn't on the sdcard.
I'm having a similar problem. Something went wrong with my phone and games started crashing, so I thought I'd give it a nice clean restart. So I reflashed my ROM and wiped everything including the SD card. Of course I did a nandroid backup first though and also made a backup copy of the SD card contents, so I should have all the data that was there before. For good measure, I also did an adb pull of /data/data/com.eamobile.nbajam_na_wf to extract those files separately so I don't have to try to extract them from the nandroid backup.
My phone works again and the games are working again, but now I'm having trouble restoring my NBA Jam progress.
Things I've tried:
1. Restoring the /sdcard/Android/com.eamobile.nbajam_na_wf files that didn't match what was on the SD card after reinstalling/playing NBA Jam. I was hoping whatever files were different would be the ones that had my saved data and it would work after this, but after doing this the game would crash when I try to view my challenges (sort of like it would before this whole ordeal, maybe my save data is just corrupted somehow).
2. Same as 1, but also restoring the /sdcard/.android_secure/(nba jam asec file, don't remember the exact name). Doing this seems to have really messed things up since the app's name and icon no longer display properly in the settings for applications.
3. Same as 1 and 2 except I also adb pushed my backup of /data/data/com.eamobile.nbajam_na_wf back over the files that were there, but it still doesn't seem to help, same results as 2.
So I ended up clearing the data and reinstalling NBA Jam again, so now it works but I don't have my save data... and like the first poster, I'd rather not lose my progress every time I flash a rom... So if anyone knows what I may have missed or has any other suggestions, please let me know!
EDIT: So it seems maybe my Challenges file is corrupted for some reason, it seems to be the one that causes problems.
FYI, these are the relevant files in /sdcard/Android/data/com.eamobile.nbajam_na_wf, they're filenames are actuallly pretty self-explanatory:
ChallengeDataFile
HighScoresDataFile
PlayNow
TeamUnlockDataFile
GameOptionSettingsDataFile
PlayerUnlockDataFile
Career
ClassicCampaignDataFile
Deleting all of them wipes your progress and doesn't seem to cause problems. I've been able to restore some of them without problems so far. But if I restore my ChallengeDataFile, it causes problems, so I guess I just gotta start over on my challenges.

Wow, 5 years later, game is still cool and EA still sucks at this...
I have a high score in Subway Surfers, I've also played counless hours, so I've wracked up a lot of coins and unlocked a lot of items. I have the galaxy note 2 for tmobile and it broke. It doesnt charge any more and they are sending me a new phone. I want to back up my data so i don't lose all my progress in subway surfers.
I was looking at the hack and how it has you replace the files in the com.kiloo.subwaysurf folder with modified text files to give unlimited coins etc... I tried copying my 3 data files to the ext sdcard so I could put them on my new phone, but when I looked at the files in a text editor, they were out of date and contained 1 month on scores, etc. So i figured they weren't being used in the operation of the game. I deleted the 3 data files in that folder, turned the game on, and sure enough, deleting those files had no affect. I tried replacing them with the hacked files people are using to cheat, and sure enough, nothing happened. So if the 3 files in my com.kiloo.subwaysurf aren't actually being using to store my Subway Surfer data, then where exactly is it being stored so I can back it up?
Please help.
Thanks.
The free version of Titanium Backup can back up an app + data. Did that not work (is the data not being backed up, too ?) ?
When I went to market, it said Titanium Backup Pro free or paid, requires root. I am not rooted.
Ah, if you're already getting a replacement it might be worth it to root to be able to get your data off. You might need root to see the correct files, but maybe someone knows a way for this specific game.

Rooting will cause me to loose my warranty. my phone has already broken after only having it 2 months. It wouldnt make sense for me to lose my warranty over a video game. I'm sure there has to be a way to back up my data without rooting.

You can backup your app data with carbon backup app , it also works on non-rooted devices but you will need a pc , here's the download link go to play store for more details.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.backup&hl=en

would an app like app to zip do the same? i have all my data on another phone and upgraded to the sIII and now my old pphone don't have service of course. but it does have app2zip for some weird reason.
I am having the same problem. I have lots of coins and items in Subway Surfer on my old Samsung Epic 4g. I just got a new Samsung Galaxy S4 on Verizon. Both of my phones are not rooted. I am reading up on it and will probably end up rooting my new S4 and would root my Epic if I needed to. I have a further problem in that the micro USB port on my Epic is broken. I have tried Carbon back up but it doesn't seem to be compatible with my Epic. Even if it was It says it requires a PC which I assume I would involve using the micro USB port which is broken.
I figure the backup programs copy files from the old phone to the new phone. I have tried to do this several times myself with no luck. I have found 3 folders to copy they all seem to be named com.kiloo.subwaysurf. The first 2 one on the SD card. One is in Android/Data and one is in .VungleCacheDir. The third is on the phone under /mnt/asec. I copied them all and tried to replace those files in those places on the new phone. The first 2 copied fine. The third was wierd because the /mnt/asec folder on my S4 was empty. I tried to place the com.kiloo.subwaysurf file from my old phone in that folder but my file manager wouldn't let me. I tried doing it with Astro, jumble file manager, and a third file manager and none of them let me. That leads me to believe there is some permission issue. I am assuming rooting would allow me to copy this file but I don't know that even if I did this strategy would work. Does anyone know if it would work or not? If so how do I make it work?
Is there a back up app that would allow me to copy this app and the app data over to my new phone using the SD card or bluetooth? Is there a version of Carbon back up that is compatible? Even if there is can I use it without a working micro USB port?
Does Titanium backup require a working micro USB port? If it does I can try and root my Epic without using the micro usb port which I haven't read enough yet to see if it is possible.
My third option is trying to fix the micro usb port on the Epic. I have kept my epic alive this far by using replacement parts from another Epic. I also used that other epic as a battery charger. The last time I took it apart it looked like of the 8 or so pins connecting the micro USB plug to the motherboard of the phone 2 were broken off. I tried to bend them back down and I thought I had fixed it but I guess not. Any advice on fixing the port would be helpful.

Would mybackuppro work to restore the an app AND that apps data? like the OP (and me) want to do with Subway Surfer? I downloaded the trial version of mybackuppro and it backed up Subway Surfer but it says I need the pro version to restore it on a different device. I don't mind buying the pro version but I would like to know if it would serve my purpose first. I am desperately trying to transfer all of my Subway Surfer winnings onto my new phone. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
Carbon back up doesn't seem to be compatible with my old phone (epic 4g) and likely requires a working micro SD port, which my epic lacks.

Subway Surfers restore on Galaxy Note 3 (VzW)
Got my new Verizon Galaxy Note 3. Its not rooted, although I hear a method is now available. I've tried everything under the sun to try and get a restored copy of Subway surfers to work. I have a rooted Motorola Driod Bionic. So Subway surfers is backed up there. I have a rooted Google Nexus 10 tablet, I can use TBpro to restore SS on the nexus device. Ive tried just about every highly rated back/restore app that is free from the marketplace. None of them restore the data. I've tried going and installing older SS apk files, and using my saved userpref, onlinestatus, etc etc. But that doesnt appear to work either.
I've installed hacked apk that gives you everything, and since SS links with FB you can get your Highscore. But whenever a new SS update comes out, you wont get it, because there are no marketplace links.
Anybody have luck using any application/scheme to save/restore SS user/profile data on a non-rooted android device?
Helium worked for me .
I first made a backup of data to my external SD card. I then restored the data from the sd card on the same phone to verify that the process was successful ( cuz once or twice the backups appeared to be successful but there were some errors when I attempted to restore).
I then installed helium on the new phone. Using file explorer go to the carbon folder. in that make a folder com.kiloo.subwaysurf. Then send the backup files from carbon folder of ur old phone to ur new phone.
Next, open helium . restore >restore from external/ internal sd card, select subway surfers and you're done!

Tired this on my nexus 10 tablet. But helium would not even retire what it backed up. My nexus is rooted so I tried backing up with and without root allowed for helium. All restores using helium onto the same device failed. That was my hope. To get a restore that worked. Then using those backednuo files. Didn't work, but wasn't a surprise since it never worked even on the original device.
Just chiming in here. I used titanium pro to back up subway surfers and it did absolutely jack. also logging into facebook only brings me my high score back. nothing else.
You backed up on what device? You restored onto. Rooted Note 3?
Lost my data

If the hack includes hacks of in app purchases or coins, then it can be posted onto xda. In fact, it can not even be discussed on xda, as it is considered warez.
Since there are no details of the hack, the discussion can continue, but please do not post or discuss warez.

Well, so you are using an android phone. My solution should work for you then since it has a SD card (you have it and it isn't broken right?).
So the thing you need to do is that you have to get a memory card reader to read your SD card on the computer. The next step would be to download a data backup software to collect your entire data. The tool you can use are plenties, some example would be EaseUS, recuva etc.
But personally I will suggest you go with easeus since they are offering some discount right now and most of their products are free. So here is the link to todo backup download. Just follow the instructions. After the data backup is done you just copy it to your new phone's memory card and then everything should be all set.
I just got my shield and I'm getting ready to root it and I wanted to know when I do this how can I get the two games that came with it back on to my system. I've already backup all my apps with helium but it don't show the two games that came with it.

You dont need to back them up. Theyre on a "pre install" partition so after a factory data reset and reboot theyll get reinstalled.
thanks
the APKs of those games are stores in /system/app so they don't get touched when you do a factory reset.
But you do have to redownload or backup and restore the game assets (obb files) stored in /Android/obb

Ok, thanks. I hate to lose them and the data. They are pretty cool, plus I love the grid beta. That cool that they put those games on there for you to play. Even thou I've already play 3/4 of them on the pc or the 360.
