is Titanium backup still the best?

is Titanium backup still the best?
i uninstalled a stock app and it wont reinstall
also drop box always fails 50 times
And the Dev never writes back on the PRo version
Is there a better alternative to back up a phone and then remotely save the information via WIFI to a PC or something
Cheers

I personally think it is the best backup app, and now you can also extract apps (and data) from clockwork mod backups. It is also free

You should just freeze the stock apps instead of uninstalling

Removed App does not remove it from Aplications

I uninstalled the app Dialer in preference for my custom one but when I look in the Home-> Applications the icon still shows up. I am trying to pear down the Naked 2.3.4 ROM to even something smaller. I am trying to eliminate all things except our apps and a custom phone dialer. I am using a Motorola Droid X2 with the Naked 2.3.4 rom.

Try touching the app and see what it does. Had one like that once and after I touched the icon, the device asked me if I wanted to remove it.

The last time something like this happened to me, I used Titanium Backup to get rid of it. Have you tried that?

Alternatively you could try using Astro or ES File explorer

With a Goolge account if you need your data you can use web access :

[Q] Is it possible to add apps to GApps?

I've been changing ROMs a lot lately to just try them out and everything and it's been a pain having to install Titanium Backup everytime then install all the other apps manually. Is it possible to add them to Titanium Backup so that I can just install them when flashing then get right to work restoring backups when the phone boots and I'm done with first time setup?

Its easy:
Make a nandroid backup via CWM or TWRP. When you have installed the new rom just install Titanium Backup und select "Extract from nandroid backup". All apps included in the backup will be shown up and you can select all apps you need and install them with one click.

Does this require the paid version of Titanium Backup?

I have the paid version. It's really worth the 5 bucks. I'll check out a free solution

I guess I'll just break down and buy the paid version. Syncing to the cloud would be helpful too.

[Q] "Couldnt capture screenshot"

Here's one for you boys,
Successfully rooted .77, LB on D6653 (thanks to zombiej79). Everything's running smoothly except for Screenshots. I get the "Content may be protected or the memory may be full" every time. Now some may think this isn't a big issue but i screenshot almost 20 times a day. its a major buzzkill.
Before you ask it's not while running an app its even on my homescreen/lockscreen. I've tried the following with no success:
- Downloading third party screenshot app with SU access
- Manually deleting the Pictures folder and sceenshots folder then recreating
- Wiping Change/Dalvik Cache
- Re-setting permissions in Recovery
If anyone has any idea's besides re-flashing it'd be greatly appreciated. If flashing is the only way can someone direct me to a guide on how to do it without re-rooting and downloading all my apps etc.

Just a thought have you flashed latest relese recovery? Maybe a r/w problem get root browser and try and set system to r/w see if it works

Yeah! 2.8.1 nut's dual recovery? I've tried the whole r/w and no success.
The weird thing is I can't seem to delete the Pictures folder. It just comes back instantly every time after a refresh and I can't make another one (it doesn't tell me i can't it just disappear/reappears after i create/delete it), which makes me assume its the permissions, but all other r/w features work perfectly.

Do you save them to internal or sd?

Try this too sre if it can capture the screen

Okay the SD card fix did nothing, it's telling me everything already has the permissions. As for the screenshot app it worked, because it didn't save in the default location (/sdcard/pictures/screenshots) it saved in it's own app folder. Which brings me back to the fact I have no permissions in my internal storage. is their a way to change the Sony default screenshot save location?
It honestly has me stumped. Everytime i try to manually delete the folder @ sdcard/Pictures/Screenshots it will instantly re-create both folders it's self with a time stamp of 30/4/1970 and be non-writable.

Try settin your date and time manualy reboot and see what happens. Been trying to find something to help but not really sure. The folder have these permissions?

Only other thing I can think is reflash the. 77 zip dont wipe see if that corrects it. Wont lose any data that way

Solved.
So, I've narrowed it down to all Stock Xperia folders i can't change permissions or don't have permissions. Weird. but I've worked around it. I couldn't change/delete/rename or modify the folders without them suddenly re-appearing. But the system let me cut/move them (strange i know). so I've completely moved all folders to a trash folder and re-created new ones. and Bam. it works.
Here's a screenshot of my fully rooted working phone. Wish i could pay ya back for your efforts mate thanks!

Awesome man glad you got it worked out. No worries just happy to help thats how a Z3 should look
