I have taken a backup of all my apps and data on Revolver ROM using TB, saved it on my MicroSD. Flashed Megatron , installed TB and tried restoring the apps but TB still doesn't pick them up.
I did point to the right backup folder in Preferences, but still to no avail. Flashed back Revolver and tried restoring again, but same issues. Copied the TB backup folder from the MicroSD to the TF internal SD, changed the backup folder location again in Preferences, but still TB doesn't pick up the apps and restore them.
Anyone else facing the same issues ? Need help here. Thanks
Maybe the rom you were coming from stored the apks differently like odexed or some nonsense and now megatron can't see them? Idk I'd wish I could help... bumb to find the answer

I used Titanium Pro to back up all the apps and bloatware on my G2X. When I try to restore any of the ones I have un-installed the restore option is not there. I think it may have something to do with the external - internal sd card. I also keep loosing the icons to some of my apps (the ones on sd) inside the folder on my home screen. How do I restore these apps that I have backed up??
Ps I have used titanium many times on my rooted cliq with no problems.
my backups are on the internal sd.i've restored a few times with no problem i haven't updated mine though. using an older apk. i've read people are having issues here and there with titanium. so i'm sticking with my old version.

IMHO Titanium Backup has always been great with user apks, but very lacking with system apks. I'm not sure if it's trying to actually "install" system apks or what, but I've never had any luck with it.
Anyway, you should be able to just push the apks back to your /system/app/ from one of the roms or backups you can find here.
Have you checked the path to the folder that your backups are in with TB?
There is an option to change it in settings. You may have to reboot after changing it.
gonna give that a shot. Thanks.
Having trouble with my Titanium Backup. I backed up all my user apps + data, wiped and installed a new ROM. After getting it back up w/ new ROM, market, install titanium (w/ pro key) and go to restore apps. None of my backups show up. Batch > "Restore missing apps with data", shows 0 apps. When I go Preferences > Backup folder location it shows the folder (mnt/sdcard/TitaniumBackup) with all my backups it in, even says "This folder contains 62 backups".
Any help on how to restore these would be greatly appreciated.

On the folder location screen choose detect and choose whole phone. It will search for the directory your backups are in. If that doesn't work then i'm guessing you may have formatted the location where your backups existed.
Try this..

What happens when you install CM7 is that the sdcard directory now points to your external sd card rather then the internal that comes with the phone.
the internal is now at /mnt/emmc
Get root explorer and you will see what I'm talking about.
Once you have root explorer just copy the titanium backup folder from /mnt/emmc to /sdcard and you should be able to restore all user apps with data... however DO NOT restore system data from stock to CM7... big headaches.
Hope this helps!

Hi, a few hours ago i backed up everything on my phone with TB. The backup went fine (though slower than usual) and the folder that should have the backup contains everything it shoul.
Then I flashed my phone (I9100, westcrip ICS) and I couldn't restore any of the apps nor data (TB said that there's 0 to restore)
So after flashing back to the Rom I was using previously I hoped to get my data back but still TB is saying that I have nothing to restore even though I still have a folder with my TB backup.
Please help, kind of panicking
EDIT: Fixed it ^^" Had to move all the backup files into the folder that the app created (even though mine was labelled the exact same and I deleted the app-made one)
False alarm
in the future u don't have to move the apps, just change the storage location under settings. I was actually going to recommend this until I read ur edit. Glad u got it sorted
Also next time, remember to back up the ROM as well ;-)
Yes, back up the Rom. One of the best but least talked about feature is the ability to restore an App directly from a Nandroid Backup on the SD-Card.
Hi guys
I don't know if this issue has been already solved or not but I checked some threads and did not find an answer.
I had a stock ROM (4.2) and wanted to go for a kitkat version. I backed up with titanium backup. data was backed in external SD.
When I installed the new ROM, TB did not find any backup as it searched only in the internal memory not the SD. I said whatever, I had a fresh start in the games and used the other apps as if they were never used before.
Now I found an improved ROM and installed it. the backup obviously was made in the internal memory but the problem is that the new ROM looks for SD card.
I am kind of confused. I restored my old data, which are now obsolete for me as I moved on since the first ROM upgrade.
Now I want to recover my recent data which is in the internal memory and not the SD.
I tried changing the backup folder from preferences but it did not solve the issue.
Hope you can help, it would be much appreciated.
Hi guys, I recently just flashed CM 12.1 w/ Android 5.1.1 on my Zenfone 2.
Before doing that, I backed up my apps+data using Titanium Backup. After flashing, I transferred back the Titanium Backup folder in the internal storage where it originally was. I then re-installed Titanium Backup. Unfortunately, there's 0 apps that can be restored according to Titanium Backup. I even checked the Storage location and it even showed my backups.
Help ASAP. TIA
Install the apps before backup. It might work.

Nevermind, just found out that my backups were corrupted. Anyways, is there anyway to restore the data of the apps instead? I dont mind re-downloading the apps again as long as I can get my data back
In the titanium backup.
One off the two zips will have you apk inside. Just open the zip and install the apk

Hi there...how did you solve the problem?
I also have the same problem...I backed everything up then flashed cyanogenmod Marshmallow 6.0.1 then after flash copied all the backup folder back to internal memory so it can be seen by Titanium backup app and still doesn't work...it doesn't see anything...although it sees the location and the files under titanium backup/preferences/Backup Settings...Backup Folder Location..but in the app I cannot see any of the apps I backed up...how can I solve the problem..please help me
i think titanium needs to be updated to the latest version. the older version somehow doesn't work and don't see the backups properly (on my stock z3c pre rooted rom). after I installed the latest version, it worked like a charm
WARNING: Titanium doesn't backup the media folder for Whatsapp nor Wechat. backup the media that you want manually before flashing. the chatlogs are backed up properly

Hi Everyone
Sorry for digging up an old topic but I have a very similar situation and almost got gray hair already
Did anyone found a solution to the issue from opening post ?
Here's what I have done (and already regret it
- I was on stock 5.1.1 android for xperia z1 compact D5503
- I have installed Kingroot to remove some bloatware applications through titanium backup.
- Then I have made a backup of all applications of my interest (sms/mms, k9-mail etc.) and copied that to a folder on external sd card.
- Then I came over idea of Pre-rooted stock roms. Performed that (downgrade to 4.4.4, root, dual recovery, instal pre-rooted rom from zip).
- Installed TiBackup, copied all backups from sd to internal memory.
- Opened TiBackup - mind blown - no apps with backups.. In Preferences - Folder backups are shown.
Any ideas? Corrupted backups? That would make me very sad
Any help much appreciated.

OK,
I have solved the riddle. So easy and obvious that I didn't notice.
When I was doing all the stuff from the post above I was using sd card reader.
So to be on the safe side - i have copied all SD card content to win10 PC.
Then when I thought I was ready - copied all to 1 folder "Stuff" and then to SD card.
What I have missed was that during that process file extensions were changed. So all *.properties were now *.properties.txt and all *.bzip were *.bzip.zip and so on.
So my problem is solved. Perhaps someone else could use it too.
Best regards

thanks a lot .. that solve my problem
Yeh, SD card to the rescue!
Hello all!
I recently decided to wipe everything (including internal storage) just to have a clean start. Everything on my SD card remained unchanged, including Titanium Backup files.
After a fresh load of a ROM that previously had no issues, Titanium Backup no longer sees my files. I moved them to the internal memory as well, but no luck. When I change the folder location, TB sees the files, but no backups appear in the list.
I don't know what happened but I cannot restore any of my backups at this time.
What have I tried so far:
Wiping data of TB
Reinstalling TB
Reinstalling fresh ROM again
None of these items have helped at all. I do not believe it is the ROM as TB worked on this ROM previously (BrokenOS).
I think this is a folder or TB problem.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
Also, my apologies if I left out any crucial details.

Bump?
What directory do you have set for TITANIUM to save backups to? To check .... Go to MENU > PREFERENCES > BACKUP FOLDER LOCATION
Now, if your backups are on your SD CARD or INTERNAL, hitting "DETECT" will find them and you could select that folder location or you can browse to the path yourself if you know where it is.
