Hey guys i have an s3 and did a backup using go backup 3.44....... everything done, went into cwm wiped everything, installed a new rom and i find out that go backup didnt actually do a backup or the backup is no where to be seen.......... can you help me or know a way where i can recover my apps or file or sms back???????? please im begging you guys
Im desperate!!!! please
My guess would be that you ended up wiping your backup when you "wiped everything" in cwm.
One way to check would be to see where go backup placed the backup files and then check if you wiped that location. If that is the case and you wiped the data, I don't think there's a way to get it back.
If you didn't end up wiping it, perhaps make sure go backup is looking in the right directory for the backup. I think ruling out that you didn't actually wipe the backup is the first order of business, though.
Good luck and let me know what you find.
Hi Guys, my friend recently rooted my RAZR HD via TeamViewer but didn't install a custom ROM or a recovery. Before I did a factory reset to clean things up, I backed up everything to my SD card using Titanium. After finishing the backup, Titanium said I should reboot to finish the restoration. Every since then I've been bootlooped. Do any of you know of a solution to fix this?
Thanks,
Carter
I don't think Titanium asks for a reboot when doing any sort of back up. It will ask for a reboot when doing certain restorations. It doesn't ask you to reboot when restoring user apks but it does on system apk.
If I'm understanding your question right, you backed everything up but then you decided to restore everything. If you never installed a ROM then it is strange for it to boot loop. If hyou did install a ROM then it could have started to boot loop if you restored a system file that isn't compatible with the ROM.
What I would do is start from scratch. Factory reset the phone, re-root, re-install Titanium, and restore only the user apps and your SMS messages if you save them. It's a slight hassle but only about 1 hour worth of your time. By the time you begin trying debug everything to find the culprit you would have lost hours.

I don't know if it will work in this situation but you might try wiping cache/dalvik cache in the recovery. That way you aren't starting from scratch. If this doesn't work, try the above suggestion instead.
Sorry for the late response. Did another factory reset and didn't use Titanium this time. Anyone know how to get my texts back though?

If you saved everything in titanium backup... then you have a backup of your messages. Open Titanium, click the batch tab, scroll to the restore section, and then restore and only restore the message thing. It should be a green color and on the right it should say xml. It will restore all your texts and mms. Just don't get confused and restore the messenger app.
If you have a lot, then be patient and make a sandwich, it's a little slow.
Well,this query is slightly old because later I did a stock restore through Odin ..
But still ,
I wanted to restore my nandroid backup .. I was in CWM and selected to restore my last nandroid backup ,, It completed with an error which I don't remember now ..
When I selected REBOOT SYSTEM NOW , it just simply turned off and turned on with usual SAMSUNG logo,and stuck there for a couple of minutes ,, At first I thought it was due to first time restore ,but after waiting for more than 10 minutes,it was still on SAMSUNG logo
I removed the battery and inserted it back,,but still the same thing ....
I don't know what went wrong
So the query is : Do I have to clear anything like dalvik cache etc before doing a restore like I did before flashing a new ROM ???
It's my first post on this site,and would be glad if got a complete answer,,bcz I want to flash some roms again and don't want to resort to Odin to go back to stock as I want everything to be as it was before flashing.
Thanks...
might I ask what ROM you are using now ? in my experience, I think if you want to keep everything the same as it was (setup, password..ect) before flashing a new ROM then don't flash any new ROM because it might cause force close and such ...
a google account will help you remember the app you have previously
Helium will help you backing up data from the app
Apex launcher has the option of backup your previous settings
regards,
Well, I am not worried about my data or anything ,coz I had already made a backup of pics,videos etc
The actual question is :
What might have caused the phenomenon???!!!! Do I need to clear dalvik cache or anything before restoring nandroid ??
well it doesn't hurt clear BEFORE and AFTER flashing/restore - so I do that every time
Still haven't got the answer ...
Flashed the phone with Cyanogen and when I booted and ran FFIV, it only gave me the option for a new game. Weak! Is there any way to get my save data back? I figure I could try a recovery but not sure how to proceed with that.
Help's appreciated!
did you wipe data before installing the rom? If so, its gone. Next time back up with Titanium backup or something like it and you wont have that issue.

I own a Galaxy Grand 2 and I use CWM for backup and restore alot while switching between roms, tho I sometimes happen to have the same problem as yours
But I managed to fix it whith a wipe data/Factory Reset after the restore is completed the n boot into the system yoy restored and then do an advance restore for data only but don't wipe anything this time!
This should help you if you still face the same problem consider changing/Upgrading your costume recovery or reflash your original firmware (usind odin) to clean the phone up (but make sure yoy don't downguard your firmware as it may softbrike your phone)
Hit the Thanks button If I helped you!
thanks for your advice. but unfortunately it didnot work for me.
i tried the way you explaint the process.
