[Q] sms backups with titanium backup - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everyone, I'm wondering how I can make sms backups on titanium backup with the hangout app. I backed up hangouts, and dialer storage or whatever it's called, and nothing worked still. I deleted a thread, and it didn't restore even after a reboot and a cache clear. any help? Thanks!

[Resolved] [Q] contacts restore with Titanium Backup?

i've looked ...cannot find the answer.
MyBackup Pro is easy to just restore contacts specifically, but i cannot find anywhere in Titanium Backup that lets you restore contacts without doing a full system restore ....at least there is no obvious option .....and i cannot figure out which part of the backup contains the contacts.
Anyone know?

What setting to restore JUST messages in titanium?

I have a full backup and If I select restore missing apps+system data I get FC after FC. If I just do restore all user apps and data all is fine. now the only thing I'm really missing is my sms/texts backups. Anybody know how to restore JUST those in titanium backup ? Our even just a forum and not a WIKI for TB ?
Thanks
Restoring your user apps plus data is fine but restoring system apps is never a good idea the only data I ever restore from the system is memo and bookmarks but ill give you a simple solution restore your user apps and data then if you want to use gosms to backup and restore your text messages I've been doing that for a long time
But if you must use titanium backup only backup the system data you need aka bookmarks memo and texts then just restore them
All you do to restore individual things is scroll through the list and tap on whatever u want then hit restore

to retrieve the sms you have to restore data for [sms/mms/apn] dialer storage and reboot your phone
Get sms backup and restore its much easier to manage them

Recovering a picture from a message (SMS/MMS)

I received a picture in a text message the other day and didn't save it to my sd card, my bad. I have since did a nandroid backup and wiped data and cache and flashed a new rom. I restored my messages with sms backup+ but the picture didn't get restored. I used Root Explorer to try and find the pic with no luck.
My question is, if I restore the nandroid backup I made, will I find the picture in there?
Might be in the folder named messaging on your sdcard? I've found many pictures left over in that folder that I thought I deleted!

Reason is, that backs-up and restore SMS, not MMS Yes, there's a difference.
If you did a nandroid restore, it should have restored EVERYTHING. In fact, you shouldn't even have had to restore your SMS using another tool, they should have already been there.
I didn't restore with the nandroid backup yet, wanted to make sure it was going to be there before I went through that process.
I'm going to hunt for the messaging folder now to see if it may still be there.
I don't believe pictures are downloaded from MMS until you tell them (or save them).

[Q] How to merge multiple app data files of the same application in a single restore.

So I have a couple of whatsapp backups made in titanium backup.
The first one, the older one it was made before I reset my phone and wiped the whole system.
The second backup, was made after I installed the whatsapp application on the newly installed OS, you know how when you reactivate your whatsapp account you got all the messages that has been sent to your number from multiple contacts at once. These messages are a lot and from many contacts so I also backed them up.
The dilemma that I'm facing now, is that when I restore the first app data I lose the new backup and when I restore the second app data files I lose the chats and history from the first backup.
So is there any way to merge both backups and restore them at once.
Note, that when I added the files of the app data from both backups in the titanium backup folder and performed a restore, the application restored the recent backup and neglected the first.
