I've modified the autostart preferences for a number of apps in Gemini, but i found that they couldn't be restored after flashing a rom even with titanium backup:crying:
Is there a way to backup those preferences?
Thanks.
i would like to know how to do it too... frustrating to configure lots of apps all over again...

I know when you root the N1 it wipes the phone. My question is can I use any of the various backup programs to back all my apps up and re-install when I root? If so, which is recommended?
My applications were partially restored after rooting. Not sure how, though.
Mybackup Pro will do what you ask.
Seems like it restores apps you install from the market.
Any app not installed from the market has too be be manually re-installed.

It appears, from what some others have suggested, that it reinstalls apps you have installed from the Market if you have Google backup your settings. And yes, MyBackup Pro is a nice app. A bit pricey but it's extremely useful, especially if you are always wiping (a 30 day free trial is available if you only need it once). My Backup for Root Users is free but it can be buggy at times and obviously cannot be used until after you've rooted.
has anyone noticed mybackup pro errors out on home screen backup?
no errors on mine.
its not an error that stands out...when i perform a backup i select bookmarks, sys settings, android home, and playlists. once the app is finished backup up the data i get the summary window which displays the following:
backup bookmarks successful
backup system settings successful
backup home shortcuts failed: null
backup music playlist successful
I have had no problems with My Backup Pro. I especially like the online backup just in case your SD card becomes corrupt and wipes everything.
Astro
Astro file manager has an application backup tool, and it will save the apps to the SD card.
Astro is a very cool file manager and completely free.
I've been using Mybackup Pro for a while now, as I am always swapping between phones, and wiping them etc. so I figured I would pay for the pro version.
If however it is just to wipe the phone once, I would recommend the trial version. It can be installed to back things up, then you can install it again after the wipe and restore everything to the way it was.
Hope that helps any.
I haven't taken the plunge to Cyanogen's beta ROM yet. Is there a way to back up all of my phone's settings (notification settings, sounds selections, homescreen layouts) so that I can restore them afterwards without jacking things up?
I've used apps to back up my settings before, but am always scared to restore settings following a wipe when going from one kind of ROM to another, or (in this case) from stock to a custom ROM. Should I not be worried?
How do I restore stock messaging app after Titanium uninstall?
forgot to put in title Android Galaxy S
Quick history
i had an error where the messaging app would force close on boot and when i went to type text. it said mms something was force closing.
I tried to change off swype text and tried a new MMS APN.
then i tried to restore a Backup (made by titanium backup)
still force closing on boot and when i started typing.
I then foolishly uninstalled the app with titanium backup.
And now it just hangs on reinstall .
how can i restore the stock messaging app after Titanium uninstall?
Cheers
----
Also Is there a better backup program out there?
Worstcase: Reflash the stock rom again.
i installed
GO SMS pro
far better than the stock app
Really pleased
then i got loads of TWlauncher errors
so i installed GO launcher which is also flipping great (Google TOP app - there is a video on the marketplace)
So in a way a bad thing has turned out to be a good thing
Its like I've got a new feature packed phone
I think my phone might be on its way out is Titanium backup still the best? I'll make another post

I'm on NeoRom v3 where Titanium backup is pushed as a system app, wanted to uninstall it, tried through several applications since several methods i tried didn't work and i think i partially deleted the app, but it's still coming back lol
It is still in apps list in the default settings menu but it's not among the other apps in apps drawer. When i try to install my version of titanium bckup, it doesn't except it.
What to do? Is there any tutorial for uninstalling system apps?

System apps could be uninstalled simply by deleting apk file and .odex file(if exists) from /system/app/.
Try deleting those files and reboot phone if you didnt already tried.
Not to mention, take backup since you are playing with system apps..
Now it's seems uninstalled but I can't install titanim bakcup again, it goes FC before even opening, like i deleted something in system that i shoudn't. blerg, nevermind, tnx for help
I'm using Titanium Backup to create backups of my apps on my Galaxy S4 and I have a question about this process. In the preference menu, there are 2 options under backup settings:
-Normal apps (APK)
-Market Link
Now these are simple enable or disable, but I was wondering if it's somehow possible that titanium Backup will backup the Market link if available and if not, backup the APK instead. I would prefer the Normal apps option to be disabled for most of my apps, since it saves space, is faster and most of my apps are from the store and can easily be redownloaded after a system wipe. But I have a few apps that aren't in the store, so for these I need APK backups. Now I could do this manually, but where's the fun in that?
Thank you very much in advance!
Titanium Backup Pro will not restore system apps.
Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920T
Titanium Backup 7.1.2 with Pro
Stock rooted with CF-Auto-Root
Tried SuperSU v2.45 - v2.46 - v2.49
The Problem
I made backup of apps that I would like to remove from the phone. I did a test by removing Amazon App. When I try to restore app, Titanium hand at restoring app, spinner will go for as long as I leave my phone on. Kill Titanium, reboot phone and I get a toast popup that Amazon has stopped. Amazon app icon in app draw, I touch to start app and get the same toast popup that Amazon has stopped. Start Root Explorer Pro navigate to system/priv-app Amazon app folder is not there. Navigate to system/app Amazon app is located here, but not in a folder and not with any support files. I tried this with a few other apps and it does not matter if they are located in system/priv-app or system/app same result.
I have search and found older threads that suggest changing Application Processing Mode to Interactive, but no mode changes have helped.
I also tried changing Mount namespace separation in SuperSU.
When applying these changes I have reboot the phone.
Any Ideas, please help.
Thank You
Nobody used Titanium Backup?

Hey, im on G925F and I have the same issue. I have USB debug activated/on, rooted, tried various tricks and switching the way of app processing in TB and none worked. I cannot restore previously backedup system apps at all
same problem here!
also, converting a user app to a system app fails the same way!

I too am unable to restore system apps backed up by Titanium Backup with Titanium Backup. I'm running the latest version of Titanium Backup (Pro), stock KitKat 4.4.2 on a Samsung Galaxy Light (SGH-T399N), rooted with SuperSU 2.50+Pro. The restore process never completes but will run forever without any error messages until I kill it externally with Task Manager. Converting a non-system app to a system app behaves the same way...tries forever without completing. From the number of earlier posts in this thread it's obvious I'm not alone. The only suggested solution I've encountered that seems applicable to my situation is to replace SuperSU with Superuser. I'm loathe to do that and hoping the problem is something else.
Same here, already tried Indirect App Processing but no help. Had this problem with my old Xperia V running CM Rom never figured how to fix it
Titanium backup is not supposed to be used to restore system apps. If I'm correct even the developer of the app says not to restore system apps with Titanium.
I have used Titanium backup for years to restore purchased apps but never system apps. Never had a problem reinstalling backups of apps.
