Titanium Backup Question - General Questions and Answers

What does the option in tibu "detach from market" do when I long press on an app?

From their faq: not want to update a specific app?
Yes. Just long-click on an app in the Titanium Backup list and hit “Detach from Market”.
I guess it removes the association that it was installed from the play store and therefor won't offer you updates

Titanium Backup (pay version) has a 'market doctor' feature that will relink all your apps.

I have the pay version. How do u use market doctor?
Hit 'menu' and there should be a market doctor option under 'more'. I'd give you the exact path to it, but I'm busy flashing a rom right now

Uninstall Titanium Backup (system app)

So I installed a CM9 ROM and it has Titanium backup pre-installed as a system app, how do I TOTALLY remove it? I tried deleting it from /system/app. Where are the rest of it's files?
question...why are you trying to delete it?
And after deleting it from system/apps what other files are you taking about?

I just want to uninstall it. No specific reason.
What files? That's exactly what I'm asking

interesting. titanium is pretty much the only app with enough power to uninstall completely most other apps. its like what would you use to clean the inside of a bottle of bleach? different bleach? lol
also not sure what you mean by 'rest of its files'? delete it from system/app/ and then reboot.
Have you tried Links2SD, it also has super powers similar to Titanium Backup, and will allow you change it from a system app to an user app, and then to uninstall it.

Titanium backup

Why is it when I back up with tibu, flash a new ROM, then restore my tibu backup I have all the apps I have deleted and uninstalled show up in my app drawer again?

Are you referring to apps that you actively download from the Play Store or preinstalled apps built into the rom? Provide an example or three of apps that you see this occur with.

Gotcha. Now, have you deleted those app backups from within TiBu? Before reinstalling apps, they would appear in your Backed up/Uninstalled filter.
Edit: And is it possible that your Google Restore is bringing any of those apps back? When you flash a new rom, before signing in via the initial set-up wizard, usually Settings/Backup & Reset/"Back up my data" and also the "Automatic Restore" tabs are enabled. Unchecking both of those options then signing into your Gmail will also ensure nothing is auto-restored.

I've always gone into that same list, tapped the app I no longer needed, and selected delete in the popup box. I usually only delete one or two app backups. I'm just now noticing there's a Batch action/Batch delete if you scroll ALL the way to the bottom lol if you can't tell I've never used that before.

[Q] Photo Sphere

I'm wondering with the S3 now having 4.3, how do we get the photo sphere option in the camera? I know I had installed it before when it first came out but I had to wipe my phone after that and couldn't find the file again that worked. Have there been any updates to this feature and where can we get it for the S3?

Download Titanium Backup from the Google Play store. BACKUP BOTH your gallery app and camera app and then remove then both.
Then go to the link below and download the apk and install.
This camera includes photosphere.
It MAY have bugs but it's worth a try. If you don't like it for whatever reason, just uninstall it and restore your old camera apps.

[Q] Country-restricted Play Store app updates

I had to sideload a Korean music app (Melon / 멜론) because it's not downloadable outside Korea, per it's link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iloen.melon&hl=en
Anyway, I read that if you sideload an app that is on the Play Store with it's correct app name, it will automatically attach to your account. However, I do not find this to be the case, as I have had it for some weeks now and there is a newer version out but I don't see it on My Apps in Play Store, and if I access it's direct page through the app with that link, there is a giant black bar that basically says "F U BUDDY, NO DICE" covering where the "update / uninstall" buttons normally are.
My question is - has it just not attached because it's not allowed in the USA? Or... if I buy Titanium Backup Pro and try to attach it that way, will the updates start working (since I already have the app installed) ?
I'm just curious because I already have an account with Melon and can technically use the app but would prefer not to have to keep sideloading updates.
I tried using some VPN application to connect through Japan (I know this is not the same as Korea ) after stopping Play Store and wiping it's data and cache, and turning off mobile data (wiped everything while in Airplane mode) but that didn't make a difference.
Thanks in advance!
I decided to buy Titanium Backup Pro and try force-attaching it. Still doesn't show up in Play Store and if I get it's link open externally still has the black bar over the area where update / open / uninstall should be
