Exactly what do you mean? The only thing you need to restore apps is titanium backup

Actually for tb i have to first install it what if my rom does not have file explorer pre installed and i dnt hv internet connection?
Wouldn't it be better if i just flash the apps through recovery
Sent from my HTC Explorer A310e using xda app-developers app
then u may use super backup backup all apps and restore it at a later stage it backups all app to external storage then u may go to path find apk and install it simple
Super backup pro is also a good source

This is my first post here so it'll probably be in the wrong spot and say something everyone already knows etc etc
I recently battled through an installation of the CM-6.1.3 ROM and when i restored apps using titanium backup/restore I kept getting force closes using the camera and even when trying to choose a ringtone.
The mistake i was making is that you can't just restore all apps with titanium. Your old versions of apps will over-write the CM-6.1.3 versions and cause issues. I had to go and restore only the minimum number of my user apps making sure i wasn't over-writing an app already built into the ROM.
If this is so basic as to not be worth sharing....sorry. But I imagine a lot of noobs like me with new ROM problems could trace it back to improper titanium use?
Some things to consider:
1. What was the last ROM you backed up your apps on.
2. Did you enable application moving in CyanogenMod Application settings.

You cannot backup your apps from Android 2.1 and restore them to Android 2.2 (CM 6.1.3), the data will not be compatible. And make sure you do enable Application Moving or else you may run out of space on your phone's internal storage.

my luck is that i don't use much app
I just restore my apps and their data with tb. Always works fine for me.
I dont restore any built in stuff at all, it only takes a few minutes to run through the settings.

Good morning everyone..
I, I'm sure like many of you, am constantly changing roms and tinkering with my phone.
I am getting to the point that I don't want to do it anymore because of all the work of re-installing all my apps...
I have created a folder on my sdcard that i put all my installers into and usually just run through that to install everything...
What I was wondering is would it be possible to create a script, put it in my directory, launch it through terminal and it will install any/all apk's in that folder?
Many thanks in advance for your help!
Sent from my DoubleShot Lite using xda premium
well you can set it to tranfer all the apks into /data/app. Though im not sure if your phone will actually view them as installed. Otherwise make a script that pushes them with the *.apk wild card.
TitaniumBackup anyone?
Yup! Titanium backup is the way to go.
I recommend the Pro version though, It does everything automatically without needing user input.
Actually I found this at the market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.infolife.installer
It is a sdcard batch installer... Was exactly what I was looking for...

Btw, thank you everyone for your thoughts on this.

What is better . . Titanium backup paid ( vs/+)rom manager premium vs rom toolbox pro
pros? Cons? Can toolbox read tb backups? Etc does it work?
I need to buy one
......please help
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
not even a question, titanium hands down. U can migrate your apps to different phones, and across roms, with market links intact. Plus it lets u freeze and uninstall apps with root privileges, as well as ability to extract apks from nandroid backups. Its an absolute power house. There's a reason its a top seller.

Titanium backup - because its simple but powerful.
And most importantly its stable - there is little that can go wrong with this.
titanium cause you can move apps across when u change your roms

glad u got it sorted
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I figure better to do that than ask basically the same question (Search function does work people!)
I just got a copy of Rom Toolbox Pro (it's on sale BTW) and I noticed it has a backup feature. I've been using TB free for all my backup needs. I see the overwhelming consensus has been to use TB Pro, but what about TB Free VS Rom Toolbox Pro? One thing I don't understand is the comment, "You can move apps around when you change roms." I'm assuming you mean backing up in 1 ROM then restoring them in the new ROM. RTP can't do that simple feature? That seems rather odd..
ROM Toolbox is by far better than both, but I'll always stick with Titanium Backup for all my backups. It is very fast and organized. ROM Toolbox I bought for all the ROM management features, app management, ad blocking, root file explorer. It is nice to have all of them in one. So I say buy both, don't be cheap. Support the developer.
GooManager is also another good app to look into. I use that as well and it is free.

"You can move apps around when you change roms." - means you can backup all your apps and their data and simply restore it again on new ROM
if u have free TB version than u have to restore all ur apps manually bt if u have pro version then it restores all ur apps automatically.
check this video for all features of TB
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Fi4HhvKCFk
if its only TB v/s ROM toolbox pro, then i will go with rom toolbox pro as it gives u root browser and u can flash roms too
but for app backup and restore tb is best works flawlessly

Didn't know this about the Pro version. Time to buy! Thanks for the info. Button thanked!
TB is the better option.... been using it since I said on this thread. Tested both.
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk 2
Tested them both as well. I use TB for backup reasons while rom toolbox to change fonts, LCD density and other minor things.
I keep a copy of TB on the sd card so that I install it as soon as I install a new rom.

This post simply answered what I have been meaning to ask. Thanks for making up my mind. I'm gonna buy the TB pro version now

i think, titanium backup pro is most important, because so many function, like backup & restore,
and also romtoolbox,
I have 2 questions actually
1) How do i restore all my apps and data after i flash a rom? (without having to download all over again?)
2) What is the difference between IMM26 and IMM76. I might flash to IMM76 but if there are no differences or improvements then I wont bother doing this
thanks
1) If you backed your apps up via Titanium Backup or Rom Toolbox, just download that app again and you should be given the option to restore your apps and data.
2) I honestly don't know off the top of my head. Might have to do a Google search on that one.
Rom Toolbox also can restore apps and their data from cwr nandroid backup. Not sure if that's a pro only feature.
Sent from my A100 using xda premium
all apps are located at /data/app , you can try to copy all the apks to that folder then chmod a+x *.apk . If doesn't work it no harm at least.

1. Use Titanium Backup
2. IMM26 is Android 4.0.3 and IMM76 is 4.0.4.
4.0.4 don't have the Android OS bug, and it is way smoother. + better batterylife I think..

along with TB this was one of the first apps I brought after rooting, chose TB as it was the first one or of the two I tried, only just started playing with this app. Only been root for couple of weeks, Rom toolbox does look good and short of played with it regarding fonts and boot images etc, not really done much else with it yet. As after root was a little scared of my phone for a couple of days. As an all in one it does look a lovely bit of kit. Both apps for me were worth the money even if one gets more use than the other

i use titanium backup pro to backup all my apps, which lets you restore just the apps you want, with or without data.. if i'm restoring all my data after flashing a ROM update, sometimes i'll use the restore data option in recovery.
Same here titanium backup pro all the way, and I make sure it backs up the data and apps to Google drive as well as the SD card. Just an extra safeguard in case I damage the card or accidentally delete all information while flashing a ROM like I did last week .
