Could someone upload a copy of the new gmail apk? See, I did a titanium backup of everything I had from the first leaked froyo rom and restored it after installing the latest, but after rebooting gmail just force-closes all the time. Anyone have a solution that doesn't involve clearing out everything?
Scratch that, fixed it by clearing out the data from the app in the "manage applications" setting...
That's how you do it. I found out the hard way, by doing it all over. Then the second time around I went that same approach and cleared the data. A gmail is restored.
When you restore from Titanium Backup? Do you have to hit Install and done on some of the Apps? What a pain...Is there a setting I am missing that will install everything? Without having to go through process, after I hit Run Restore All Apps + Data.

If you donate, it will restore in batch mode.

Bingo! Similar issue/solution after installing the evo framework DINC port.
Thanks for this!
Hi guys,
I've been trying out the new backup app called carbon. I've been fiddling and backing up my data, but I cannot seem to find the setting to have it backup the data and the apk.
Upon restoring through carbon it makes me manually download every apk from the play store.
Anyone know how to backup both the app data and the apk?

I think you have to Download original files(apk) seperatly in your mmc.
I always download original files and install manualy.

Carbon claims to have functionality so you wouldn't have to do this though.

Try titanium backup.

Hey folks. ive been trying to back this app up to work on a different ROM.
I am aware of the fact this app has a built in Google Play Games cloud save feature but it does not transfer crystals and fragments.
I backed up my rom, then installed a new one. reinstalled titanium, and then the app.
then i tried to use titanium to restore the app data but it fails to load the old save. The app starts like a fresh install (no progress).
i have also tried the same process but with helium/carbon and still no hope.
have any of you been able to restore it successfully?
thanks guys.
This is a noobs Guide to how to use Titanium Backup .
Many of the users might have heard of a app named Titanium Backup. Its the most used app in the Android Market who frequently flash ROMS and for those who doesnt want to download all apps again and again from Store after flashing new ROMS.
What is Titanium Backup?
Titanium Backup is an app which can backup all your app+data in just one click(Even system apps but not recommened).Can delete system apps,convert system apps to user apps.
So how to use.
Note: Your phone must be rooted and USB debugging should be on which is present in developer options while installing.
Lets start with first thing you see after installation.
If you face a root acces failure then tap on option button of your phone scroll down tap on reload application.
You will see 3 tabs:
1.Overview
2.Backup/Restore
3.Schedule
Overview will give you the short details of your root device and memory.
Like Root access. Data profile(Used to set any filters for a app). Memory details of your partitions and usage.
Backup/Restore will show the details of the apps installed in you phone.
You will see different type of apps highlighted in different colors
White: The apps you installed
Red: System apps which can be converted to system apps.
Yellow: Most important system apps which can not be moved(Dont uninstall or else you need to reflash your rom again).
Schedules sets a time for backup.
You can set the type of backup you want at a particular time.
Those who frequently change roms check the 4th post for restore and backup.
Backup specific app
Here comes the real use of Titanium Backup. The backup/Restore Part.
Here you will see the list of apps installed in your phone.
First lets see how to backup a single app.
Now tap on the app.
You will see two tabs
1.Backup Properties
2.Special Properties
1.Backup Properties
a. Backup : This will backup your selected app as app+data.
b. Freeze : This will disable the app.
Rest of the things you know from the name
When backup is complete again tap on the app you took backup. You will see a tab Restore and delete of the app.
Select restore you will see 3 options App+Data, App Only , Data Only
App+Data will restore apk as well as data(Data consists of settings,login info in short user defined settings and all you made for that app)
App will restore app only. Data will restore data only.
2.Special Properties
It is made of 4 sections:
1. General
2. Play store/ Market
3. Storage
4. System ROM.
1General Section is easily understandable.(I hope You can)
In general section there is a option named " Send latest backup" you can send to other phone or store it locally and restore(Check 4th post). The backup is stored in .TiBkp
2. Playstore/Market shows the links of the app in playstore.
3. Storage Section is also understanable. In explore it shows the files it uses and the location of files where it is installed with DB)
4. System ROM section can be used to convert a user application app to system app.
In some app you will see "Force remove app" I would suggest dont click on it.
User app is shown in white after you convert it in system app it will become red.
Schedule
Backup all user apps at one click.
There are two ways to backup data.
1st through schedule.
2nd through advanced option(Check the 4th post)
In schedule tab you will see two schedule as default
1. Redo backups for modified data
2. Backup new user apps & newer versions
1.Redo backups for modified data.
What it does is takes the backup of new data of all user apps(Like whatsapp chats,new user settings etc).
2. Backup new user apps & newer versions
This schedule automatically backups the newer versions(Updated version) at a given schedule time.
If you want you can manually run the schedules by just clicking on run. Titanium backup will be minimized. The progress can be seen in notification drawer. After completion it will vibrate.
So now you have taken the backup of all your apps through just one click.
You can add new schedule as you want.
Restore and backup all apps at once and restore your apps from previous roms \.
This is the most advanced part of Titanium Backup.
After installing new rom you will see a warning showing change in android device ID. Details are given in warning messsage.
Now click the option button of you phone.
You will see 7 sections:
1.General
2.Play store/Market
3.Storage
4.Import/Export
5.Special Backup/Restore
6.Your Device
7.Special Features
1.General section there 4 options:
1 Filters: This section filters the apps you want to see. If you want to see only user apps select only User. The change can be seen in backup/Restore Tab. As you have selected user apps you will see all the apps in white.
2. Batch Restore: This section should be used properly. This section restores app+data in just one click.
This is distributed in 10 sections:
1. Verify Backup: Verifys backup.
2. Backup: Select the type of backup: Use the 1st one "Backup all user apps" Dont backup system data as it will create conflict in new rom when you restore it.
When you select this option all your user apps will be displayed.
3.Restore: This option will restore all backups.
When you select the 2nd option "Restore all apps with data". In top you will see three options App+Data, App only, Data Only.
If you dont want to restore a particular just untick that app and it will not be installed.
If you find that some apps are not restore just select the 1st option " Restore missing apps with data". It will show the list of unrestored apps.
4. Move/ Integrate: This section moves apps to sd card or from sd card to internel. Dont RUN the 3rd option "Integrate updates" As it will create a conflict.
5. Freeze/ Defrost: This section disables the apps.
6. Android Market: Links for the user apps.
7. Manipulate data: This section clears data of all user apps at once. Rest i didnt use so cant tell(Last 3 option).
8. Recovery mode: In this section you can create a update.zip of all your apps which can be flashed through recovery.
9. Uninstall: Will uninstall all your apps at once.
10. Delete Backups : This section will delete all the backup at once.
2. Play store /Market: This section consists of links of apps to the playstore.
3. Storage: In this 1st option shows the usage of the apps. Rest leave untouched.
4. Import: This will import the backups done by Titanium backup of a particular app (Check 2nd Post how to export a app)
5.Special Backup / Restore:

5.2 Restore data from xml : This section will restore msgs, call logs , wifi password.
5.3 Extract from Nandroid backup : This section will restore app from the backup of your ROM made through recovery.
5.4 Extract from ADB Backup: Haven't used this feature so cant tell
6. Your Device: Reboot and Manage Android ID.
7. Special Feature:
It creates a update.zip of itself(Titanium Backup) which can be flashed through recovery.(Install Zipsigner from store to create update.zip)
Reload Application: Will Reload the app.
So finally you have restored all your apps. If you have missed an app to restore but dont want to take long process to restore just go to backup/restore tab. Scroll Down. You will see that particular app in strike through. Tap on that app. Select restore.
The backups are stored in sdcard in a folder named "Titanium Backup". Dont delete this folder or else you will lose all your backed up apps.
Future
For future use.
Thank you. I've heard of Titanium Backup but never used it. Does backing up use a lot of data?

I think you mean space? Off course buddy backup will take space.. The more you install apps and take backup it will consume space in your card..
Hit thanks buddy that's much needed instead of saying..:thumbup:

I meant data, but after re-reading the article, I realized that the backup is stored on the SD card and not in a cloud. Sorry for the confusion.
hello there
it is safe to remove Samsung Apps such as S Planner, S Voice using "Force remove app" function?

It is safe but make a backup first then remove it. As this are system apps I won't recommend to remove it cz this apps could be associated with other apps which may not work properly if you remove them..

It's OK... I was switching from 4.1 to 4.4. Both os uses different core apps. May be that's why I can't restore the data.

Unable to Restore APKs
Hi all. Hopefully someone can tell me how dense I am for not being able to solve this problem (or whether it's a problem at all). I have an Asus TF700 and recently changed from a stock-based jb custom rom to a cyanogenmod-based kk custom rom. On the old rom I ran the batch bakup all user apps filter, wiped tab from recovery, then installed new rom. TB was already installed on new rom so I just opened it, granted su, enabled USB debugging, and went to batch restore option. All of my app data is available for restore but none of the downloaded user apks themselves are backed up. When I open up the backup properties display for each app it shows Has App: No, Has Data: Yes. I was hoping to batch restore all user apps + data but the only way I can do it now is to install each app individually from the Play Store and then batch restore the data. This has the potential to be a very long process. I don't know if I made a mistake during TB backup or if my new rom/wipe is the problem. I'm hoping someone can point out to me where I went wrong. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks.

hi, @a-t0m as you are describing your problem.. I think you are not selecting the proper option..
When you open TB you will see a tab called schedule..
In that select add new schedule.. You will see drop down list..
Tap on the first drop down list.. You will see option of backup all user data. Select it.. Save it.. Manually run it or schedule as you like.. Your apk as well as data will be saved..
Hi, wondering if anyone may have a suggestion. I'm not getting any action restoring a backed up User Dictionary with TB. It seems to create the backup but not restore it. Tried both data and app+data and reboots but still no action. HTC One rooted ARHD 71.1 (4.4.2)

Well you can try is manually take backup..

Now restore that only.. See if that helps..
Data not restored?? Tap on the app again.. tap on wipe data.. Now restore data only not app+data or app only..

Yes, it is. These are bloatware, not required by the system to run.
Cloud sync
I have the full version of TIBackup and used the sync feature to have a copy of my backups in my Google Drive account (manual sync, I lauch it every now and then or just when I want to backup a particular app), what does it happen if I want to cancel them from my phone memory (a nexus 5, if it matters)? next time I make a backup and I give the sync command, will it delete those backup files from my cloud too?
I want to keep them only in my google Drive account.
I have been having issues with Titanium for long time across multiple roms. I have pro version. I have it set to keep 3 latest backups and to restore titanium settings automatically. However, when I do a clean install of a rom and I try to restore apps manually the restore button is missing. It shows the date the backup was created and the delete button is on the right but there is no restore button on the left. I can restore backups from Nandroid using Titanium but this takes forever and the backups are not as fresh.
Any help would be a lifesaver!
Hi, I'm having a problem with this feature. Basically there is the option to automatically restore app data when resinstalling an app. Does this actually work? I tested it by deleting an app and reinstalling it and it hadn't restored the app data. Am I doing something wrong? I want to restore factory settings but not until I'm 100% sure my apps Data is backed up and can be restored.
I have searched but not found the answer I'm looking for.
Thanks!

Hi dan.langridge88,
App data restore will take place if you created backup connected to its online service (google account).
Once you reinstall the app, you can go to "restore data" and select your online backup.
Select only "Applications" and this will restore its app data.
After restore process has been completed, you can re-open the app and its data should be restored.
