Titanium backup help

Also posted in android general apps.
OK so installed new rom this morn. Last night I used TB to backup my apps. So install Tom and reinstall TB then transfer TB folder back to phone. Go into TB and run missing apps .. only thing is not all my apps show. Like engadget, friends caster,face book,twi, and etc. Another 38 of 60.
So I search in TB for TWI.. and this is what I get..(attatched pic)
So a question I have is there any way to get the apps out of the TB backup folder? And why is look like that?
Thanks.. phone listed in sig and rom is infused 2.2.3

First off this is probably covered in the general section a search would find plenty of results. But the answer to your question is that you dont have to copy or move any of your backups at all after creating the backup. Look to your external_sd once you install your ROM and then re-install TIBU. You can open and allow Root access for TIBU then go to your phones menu option and select Preferences. Scroll down the list of option until you find Backup Folder Location then click detect and select entire device. It will locate all backup directories, select your regular backup directory and then **Important** select Use Current and close preferences. It should update all of your previous backups. Click the phones menu again and select Batch and Restore Missing Apps with data. You should be good to go at that point. If you dont have any backups then you may not have done your previous backup correctly. Another suggestion I can make is once you get your phone restored and all apps installed the way you want it. Run the Delete Backups batch job and start fresh with a new set of backups.

How to remove system app.

Hi, some one can help me ?? I need to remove system app from my HTC incredible, how can I do that ?? Thanks.

Download root explorer. Navigate to system/app and all of the system apps are going to be there. I'd advise moving the app to your sd card instead of straight up deleting it incase you want it later.

Open Titanium Backup, select "Backup/Restore" (at the top), scroll down to the app you wish to remove, select it, select "Un-install".
Job done

Try this. Found a reference to it the other day on another forum because I wanted to remove Google Books from my phone. Works like a charm, easy, fast, and effective.

yes as jimbo said go to backup restore menu and select the app you wanna uninstall if you press on one app a menu will pop-up choose what you wanna do

Titanium Backup Pro (paid version) also lets you to freeze the app, in case you need it later. For system it's like unninstalling.

But using Titanium Backup, you must have root. Like the deleting with Root Explorer

help with first flash

Hello, I recently rooted my Samsung galaxy s captivate and have been reading up on the flashing of custom roms ( planning on getting serendipity 9). Any ways, I was just wondering, when I back up my current rom, after installing the new one, is there any way to restore the content without restoring the whole rom?

When you talk about your APPS....please use titanium backup...it always works.

Yes, Titanium backup is great. Although one downside is that you need to root your phone before you can make a full backup. So you would first have to root the stock ROM, make a titanium backup, then flash a new ROM, then restore the backup.

Mybackup root is good for SMS and call log.

Im already rooted and I have the titanium backup free version. I don't see anywhere that I can make a full backup just individual apps and info ( sorry for being duh an android noob, I'm used to jailbreaking iPhones which is child's play)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe u need the paid version to back up batches. Free is individual apps but I may be wrong

You can batch backup in free version but u need the paid version to batch restore. Free version only allows u to restore one app at a time.

On titanium backup, select backup/restore, after a short delay, top right look for an icon that looks like a sheet of paper, with a tick , select it, the next page look to see where it says backup all user apps n data, think it seems second or third option in the backup section.

Basically all's I want to backup is my 700 snes roms and all their saves....I guess I could get on a comp and put the folder on there, flash it, and drag it back. Thank you all for the help

Those are saved onto the SD card, no need to backup those (unless you really want to). Wiping the phone before a flash does not wipe the SD card.

Download Super Backup (contacts, sms, call logs ) and App Backup & Restore from Play Store free. These two apps work even though you are UNROOTED.

Hey,
Somehow, my copied text data is being written down to .TXT files in my folder. Also I think my clipboard stores previous copies as well.
How to identify which program is doing it and why??

I had this happen to me before but i dont know how to fix it i just got scared and reset my phone
If i was you i would backup data w/titanium backup or custom recovery (only the apps you need because one of them is the spyware or virus) and your photos to pc or sd card and reset your phone to factory and restore the backups makesure the backups are not on the phone when you reset and done you will have got rid of the spyware
You may not want to reset your phone just look for apps that use root and the ones in your in assasibility or admkn apps
Sorry kf this did not help:thumbup:

Is there a way to backup build.prop within TiBu?

I’d like to backup build.prop using TiBu in order to back it up using TiBu? Is that possible?
Thanks for the answers.

Is your device rooted? If so, you can use adb to adb pull a copy of your build.prop file.
Or, you can use any android file manager app that has a "root explorer" option to find your build.prop file and then copy that file and then paste it to the folder of your choice in your internal/external storage on your device or the folder of your choice on PC.

I know how to copy the file to a different location, but I’d like to manage the backups by TiBu. Is it possible?

I'm not sure, as far as I know, TiBu is becoming deprecated/no longer updated.

Deprecated? I’ve missed that. Anyway, is there a replacement, like Magisk to SuperSU?

Try Helium for apps and data, try SMS Backup for text messages and use Google to backup contacts/photos/videos.
Sent from my SM-S767VL using Tapatalk

It looks like Helium development is also stalled (last update on Google Play was on 6 Mar 2019, while TiBu was ‘updated’ on 24 Nov 2019). And I have read the Helium Wiki and I don’t like it doesn’t work in all cases and don’t stuff won’t be fixed. I use Google apps, therefore they must be backup (I know they’re web-apps, but the local settings are not backed up), so for now I’ll stick with TiBu. I am evaluating 3C Toolbox (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.at.free) if it would do all the stuff I do in TiBu, but for I now I don’t see any competitive software to TiBu.
