[Q] how do i backup apps as .apk files?

i would like to backup apps to a .APK file so i can put them on the computer .....TB (titanium backup) doesn't seem to put them in just a .apk so how can i do this?
id like to be able to use "adb install _______.apk" to put apps on a phone all at once without needing to buy TB as i don't have the money....
I just found an app that does that this morning. It's called apkExtractor by Kim Heeseok. I'd post a link, but you need 8 total posts before you can do that.

*sigh* can you put the link in a PM? or just put spaces between the parts so it doesn't register as a link, i can put it back together when i get it.
Here (delete brackets around https and .com):
[h][t][t][p]://play.google[.com]/store/apps/details?id=net.sylark.apkextractor
Edit: Just as a note, inside of the app, a long press of the app you want to export will give you the option to export it as an apk. It will be exported to "/sdcard/AppManager/yourappname.apk".

Titanium Backup
you can download it
Titanium Backup DOES back up apks, they just have them compressed...IIRC, you'll see the appname.apk.gz
You could also use something like ES File Explorer, which has a backup function. Other apps have similar capabilities.

I use the computer side of the 'wan dou jia' export! It is one of China's software.
i was also looking for the same.So i won't need to download the apps everytime after flashing or any other reason.
thanks mate
I gave up and use titanium backup pro

Two Questions

Hi, i'm just wondering how do I move file such as movie file into SD card? I recently rooted my tablet and using cm9 rom. With the stock rom i used the my file(file manager) app, it came with the tablet.
Also anyone knows how to delete core apps? I dont need everything though, just few. My internal memory is only 8gb.
Thanks in advance.

To move files to sd, you need to install a file manager downloaded from google play as astro file manager l, es file manager, antek file manager, root explorer , root browser lite (search google play) use any of them as alternative to ny files app in stock rom
To remove system apps use file explorer as root explorer or root browser lite to remove the apk of unwanted apps from system/data ( please make nandroid backup first !!!) or use app like system cleanup (make a nandroid first)

yes to move files you need a file manager(go for bluetooth file transfer,astro,androzip or root explorer or any other)
and to delete stock bloatware use link2se or rom toolbox or titanium backup and many other option are available...
Thanks, i will be trying several apps and see what works with me. I'll keep you guys posted.

OK
You have to go into your account via your computer and get rid of it there. Delete account from phone, and / or in account settings shut off auto sync.

Here's a better way:
Use an app like "App Backup & Restore" from the Playstore. It will copy the apks to a folder on your SD card. You can then use a File Explorer to send those apks via Bluetooth. :good:
Try finding it in CM file manager.
I hope you find it!

All your app's installed and linked using Link2SD are saved into your second partition you created as fake internal ram. This second partition is either EXT2 or EXT3, Linux format.
Thank all for replying :thumbup:

Saving app apk

How do I save an app apk and put it on my computer. Because I want to save the flappy bird apk so I can give it to my friends and keep it for myself
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Ok you can do this in many ways.
If your phone is rooted,then install ~
1]Root Uninstaller from Google Play which automatically backs up all installed applications to sd card. Note that you can also back up applications manually using this app.
2]a file explorer like root explorer or fx file explorer. Then, go to system/sd/apk, where all installed application files would be present. Copy and paste it to sd and backup to pc.
Hit the thanks button if it helped.

Hi,
you can use Share Apps from play store...
Share Apps really share your apps' installation package(APK) with your friends directly.
Share Apps will share you app(include system app) to:
Email,Dropbox,Google Drive,Bluetooth,Facebook etc.
Some other similar types of more apps are available on play store.... plz check...
I think these all work without root...
if you both have rooted devices u may use Titanium backup app to bundle ur app in .zip file & ur friend can use flash it thru recovery / cmw recovery....
