Hi everybody,
In the cyanogenmod 9 v4.0.3 v1.1 thread, the OP says "Do not recover a backup over this ROM. In case you do ROM will fail and you will have repeated apps...". I was wondering if he's talking about the non system apps .apk or only the data of them. I'm asking this question to know if I can restore my apps with Titanium Backup after have installed this ROM or if I will have to dowload them again in the market and lost all my data.
Thx for the help and sorry if it's a noob question, first post anyway thx for the help
I have never run into any problems restoring app data only on downloaded apps. I avoid restoring the full apps via TB if I can. The only system data I restore is my WiFi access points.

thx I can wait to flash this awesome ROM
I moved from CM7 to CM9 with clean install + restoring apps/data from Titanium Backup. Some data got lost like sms or wifi accesspoints but I can live with it.
Hey
I'm on a GSM Galaxy Nexus running CyanogenMod10 nightlies, and I'm noticing some lag, and so I wanted to wipe everything and flash again.
Not sure if that will help lol (noob) but I thought I'd try.
To wipe everything and keep my settings and stuff intact, what do I need to do? a nandroid? And what happened to the nandroid I made when flashing cm10? is that just stored as a recoverable file?
Thanks!
Nandroids are complete backups of your system, restoring a "laggy" system will end you up with the same laggy system, with no difference...
If you wanna get back your settings after a wipe, use Titanium Backup...though I advise against backing up system apps and data since restoring them usually gave ME force closes...
You can try wiping data, not sure if it will actually make the lag go away...
Or you could try scripts like the famous v6 supercharger memory management script (google it)...

If you did a nandroid backup before you flashed the version of the ROM that's laggy, restoring it may fix the problem, since it'll bring you back to before you flashed the ROM. (If you're doing nightlies, I'd do a nandroid before every update. Label it with the date and time you created it and save it off the phone [on a computer, laptop, USB drive, etc.])
Umm, not trying to sound like a d!ck, but you are running "nightlies" which aren't exactly known for stability. If you want your phone to run without any issues find a stable ROM and not one in nightlies. The lag you are describing is relatively common when using an unstable nightly version of a ROM as a daily driver, and if it is something you are not prepared to live with then I would always keep a "last known good" backup on your SD card...gives you a restore point with last known good settings which you can restore at any time.
Hi All,
I've been trying to find some spare time to work on a new version of AppExtractor and I'm to a point where I'm looking for testers / feedback.
AppExtractor is a tool which will allow you to restore individual applications, data, SMS, and MMS messages from your nandroid backups.
The new version of AppExtractor supports CWM 6 backups (which restores faster than other backups), CWM 5, and TWRP. I have also updated the UI and some other tweaks to hopefully speed up restoring from backups.
If you are interested, please give this new version a test drive and let me know what you think and any issues that you run into.

Thanks!

Sorry - I'll update the OP... AppExtractor lets you extract apps/data/settings from your nandroid backups (CWM, TWRP).

I tried it, doesn't seem to be able to restore data though. Kudos for being able to read from the CMW6 backups in the first place .... It would be great if it was possible to restore individual apps' data though, it's most of the purpose of such a utility. Oh, also it couldn't restore nether my sms nor my phone data either...
Okay I have been unable to restore SMS/MMS using the app. At first I thought it was only related to CWM and the new Backup file system Koush went to (which he changed again), so I dumped CWM for TWRP which I thought would fix the issue. Turns out I was wrong when restoring from a TWRP SMS/MMS restore says it completes but the message list is still empty (even after a reboot).
Any thoughts on a fix.
thanks for your work on this.
Using on a CWM 6 recovery Samsung S3 4g, had to manually change card location to extSdCard and then it found the backup. Sadly once it finds it, it opens the backup up but can't see anything inside it. Will wait for further updates.
Let me know if you need more info etc.

You are right, so there is only one application that supports CWM v6 backup format, and this application is called nandroid manager.
It's here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.h3r3t1c.bkrestore&hl=fr
Currently version 1.1.2
There is some issue with it:
There is no feature to restore contact
The feature to rename (the pen icon) is breaking the restoring through CWM afterwards, because the md5 checking script is based on the original folder name
For me Restore call logs was not working at all
Not sure Restore wifi was working, same for bluetooth.
Restore Home screen not supported yet, and for which launcher?
Here i present my request to help out on sdcard issues with titanium backup and contacts import export on CM12
I opened this thread to discuss regarding an issue where i am unable to import contacts from storage on unofficial cm12 builds by all the developers.
i tried the build by anerik Alberto97 and martinusbe
all the roms boot up fine and work well but i can't restore my apps via titanium backup and can't even import contacts from storage.
for the information on my device and it's status.
I have an xt1033 converted to gpe where my data partition is ext4
apart from the above mentioned bugs cm12 has no other issues in need to use it on daily basis.
i don't use wifi hotspot but yes my wifi works perfectly fine.
hope someone can come up and provide a help on this issue.
What is your titanium version
Have you changed the default backup path

Hey guys, I don't use titanium frequently, but unless your runtime was ART when you were on kitkat, when titanium backs up your data it will use the old runtime which isn't supported on lollipop (which only uses ART)

Why run time is so important?
I think it should work without the need to have run time changed because mybackup works pretty fine.
Hello All
I am having trouble restore apps to CM12 Unofficial with Titanium Backup.
I moved from CM11.
I could restore calls and messages fine, but general apps get stuck restoring.
Any ideas?
I've tried using all the modes etc but no luck.
I searched but could not find anything.
Merry Christmas
Scott
Open TiBu, Menu, Preferences, all the way at the bottom is App processing mode, choose INTERACTIVE. You'll have to manually restore each app and go through each app's permission requests and what not but it does work.
Thanks, but I tried that. App restores but the data does not, even when selected to. Any other way to fix it?
I had the same problem on CM12, I think the problem has to do with Superuser.. After flashing SuperSU in recovery, I was able to Batch Restore my Titanium Backups without issue..
