I checked the "Auto-sync TB settings"
Then do a full wipe, reinstall TB (or launch the TB included in the ROM) and re-check that check box ... and
NOTHING
My filter labels don't reappear.
Everything else works fine, how does that setting work, is there a file on the SD card somewhere that I can check to see if TB created it fine?
I have the paid version and am now using 3.0.0.7 on Starburst 1.2.1
After 4 times re-classifying 300 apps I'd really like to solve this, what am I doing wrong, what can I check to make sure those settings are saved?
It is really hindering my ROM installations ;-)
Since no-one seems to have this problem I did some investigating myself and found a database called "custom" in /data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/databases/ this seems to hold the filter information, I'll be keeping a copy of that next time I do a full wipe in case that "Sync" setting doesn't work again.

Nice Find dude! I was looking for a solution and you got it!
Lately it has been working well for me.
I've also found where the backup on the SD card is, it is in:
[sdcard]/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/
Here is a settings directory with the labels db and all settings and it also has a licensing file so that a fresh install knows you have the paid version without having to connect to the Market.

Thanks.
But i don't understand how to solve the exact same problem as you had before. I know that this directory exists and the labels are saved there (/data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/databases/).
You make a backup of this folder on the SD card and after wiping your mobile phone you restore this folder and start TB afterwards?
I hope you still track this topic
Thanks.
EDIT: At least i found a workaround for me. Seems like TB overwrites the Sync folder. Therefor i've installed a ROM (after wiping), installed Titanium Backup, made all my settings (encryption, labels, pro key, dropbox settings) and made a ROM backup with ROM Manager. It's not what i want. But i can live with that for now.
I have this same exact issue. No fixes yet
I wrote the TB support and they've requested some additional information. I hope they will fix it.
The support said TB has problems with dual sd devices.
I own a HTC Desize Z which is not a dual sd device.
1 - Replace files in SDCard\data\com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup\settings\ with your backup.
2 - Wipe Titanium data
3 - Start Titanium ..
Thinking it is it first start it will restore settings... don't know why it do not work the first time after flashing...
Seems that it do not check "Auto-Synced" settings on every start, only first start (empty data)
I have the same problem.
I hope it can be solved.
=======================
2011.12.21 Update
hi, guys, I found another app can restore TB's settings.
Delta Backup(market.android.com/details?id=com.ds.deltabackup)
u can use Delta Backup to backup "Titanium Backup".
When reinstall TB, just use Delta Backup to restore TB.
It works!

This works - THANKS! Luckily, I had backed up /sdcard/data before the wipe.
Easy enough to have a script to do this, or TB can add a feature to copy /sdcard/data/com.keramidas.TB to /sdcard/data-backup/com.keramidas.TB whenever the app exits or is terminated, then look for that directory during its first start.
Unfortunately it seems we are a tiny minority. Theres practically no info on label deletion online or in the wiki. This used to happen often when I was flashing almost weekly but I haven't changed ROMs in a while and a sense rom I just tried had a modified TB included and it deleted my highly detailed labels. It should at least keep a cache of the old setting temporarily. Even my iPad does that in cydia when you change a plist. Gonna try restoring a nandroid with sdext, super outdated though. Kinda ridiculous that a great backup app's greatest weakness is backing itself up. I still get occasional licensing issues too so who knows.
Anyone happen to know a way to restore recently overwritten data either in the phone data/data or sd/data?
Here's to a useful daily update!

That's really weird. And the TB support doesn't even know what I'm talking about. After it got too complicated for them, they stopped writing me. Maybe someone should write them again and show TB support this topic.
I'm trying to fix this issue with symlinks. I will create a backed up ROM with ROM Manager where the database file links directly to my sdcard. I think this should work.

Thanks man, this saved my problem.
The SD-Card in the SGS3 is in mnt/extSdCard, which means I also had to change the path for the backup folder to get it working.
There is also the possibility to manually import these settings to TB by opening the files in SDCard\data\com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup\settings\.

I agree. This is probably the most straightforward approach.
Although..., I have to say, the the last time that I re-installed a fresh (from the Market) not an apk on my sd (my normal M.O) my labels were restored. Who knows!
Oh and as far as TiBu even knowing of or handling this issue, I still haven't heard anything from them after writing to them.
I guess every great warrior has a weakness.

Thank you fixed it for me
I was having this problem after including titanium backup in my rom. I think the problem is this:
System apps are allowed to start at boot (user apps aren't until they have been run at least once by the user)
Titanium backup starts at boot to check it if it needs to schedule any tasks
Sometimes this will happen on the first boot and before the sdcard has mounted, and it will fail to load the settings.
When you later run it yourself it will wipe the previous settings from the sdcard.
For now to get around this each time you install a new rom which includes titanium backup you can go in to settings and force close / clear data before you run it for the first time. Your previous settings should still be on the sdcard and will now be imported.
I will contact the developer about this - hopefully it wouldn't take much to fix.
[Edit] Thinking about it, pre-ics the boot permissions weren't enforced so this might happen with it installed as a user app too if you reboot before running it.

I am still not clear
1-there are 2 copies of the "data\com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup"
One on the internal memory and one in the external memory. Which one I back up and later over write .
2-How do I wipe titanium data?
Sorry if the questions sound stupid but I am stuck

Hi!
Would you mind to post your answers? I am also interested in learning this...
Does anyone know if these problems we are having are due to the fact that some devices have both internal and external sdcards? (like the transformer family)
In preferences we are able to change the location of the back up copies but not the location of the titanium back up user configuration (labels, profiles, set up...)
Every time I have tried to use TB I end up loosing my TB configuration... quite annoying!
Thanks
Apps Organizer
An easy way to restore your labels in Titanium Backup (TB) is to use the recommended program Apps Organizer (AO) .
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.code.appsorganizer
Assign labels using AO and you can see and use them to filter TB. Export the labels from AO. In your new ROM install AO and Import the labels. You will see them in TB in your new ROM and can use them to filter.

AO is helpful. I just restore AO with Data. Some things AO does not, tasker plugins for example.
It is ironic TiBU doesn't have a straightforward way to backup its settings.
Follow the instructions from here. Ive had this problem twice so far and this worked both times. I take no credit for this fix, I just wanted to pass it on. Heres the original text:
mattisdada said:
This fix at the very least works on the MIUI ROM. It may work on all ROMs, if someone starts getting this error, try this fix and report back . Also reported to work on CM6
Wipe data for Contacts Storage and Google Services Framework.
Really easy, this will fix either android.process.acore force closing or google.services.framework force closing.
WARNING!: This will wipe contacts. It seems acore fc's when there are corrupted contacts. Usually by restoring contacts on an incompatible ROM....
And will temporarily wipe market list. So backup your contacts!
Step by step:
0. Make sure Sync is off, leave it off for some time!
1. Go into settings
2. Select Applications
3. Select Manage Applications
4. (If you are on 2.2) Select the All tab
5. Scroll down until you find Contacts Storage (select it).
6. Wipe data+clear cache(If available)
7. Hit back
8. Scroll down until you find Google Services Framework (select it)
9. Wipe data+clear cache (if available)
10. Reboot and enjoy
Enable sync again when your convinced that the error has gone.
If this works for you, can you reply stating what ROM your on? (Eg, Stock 2.2, Cyanogenmod 5.08, MIUI 0.9.24, etc)
Or if it doesn't work for you, do the same thing?
Thanks guys!
If you don't want to wipe all contacts:

THX. Worked on my SG2 [Android 4.1.2]
I like switching from rom to rom, trying each out and seeing how each work, I backup all my apps and the market links via titanium backup, but shortcuts on the homescreen and other settings aren't.
is there anyway you guys backup your shortcuts and setings beside my backup root?
thanks
yeah, do a "backup all user apps + system data" (hit menu, pick "batch" then scroll down to "backup" and "backup all user apps + system data")
that saves/restores all widgets and shortcuts
hope that helps

I would like to add that restoring all system data might screw some parts of Sense like e.g. location update in weather and clock or the lock screen.
Restore user apps + data first, then restore only the green entries in TB...

Restoring data and apps from ROM to ROM may screw your software and cause issues.
For me, I had problems with Market, locations, and lockscreen wasn't showing icons + the phone was lagging badly...
You can restore only contacts, SMS and so on.. I don't think you'll need anything else

thats for the best im sure, but i cant be bothered to go through all of the apps and i havent had any issues so far, and ive done a FULL titanium backup at least 20-25 times im sure its just a matter of time, but until then its save a lot of trouble getting my fone looking exactly the same again
note* ive gone thru 2.3.3, 2.3.4 AND 2.3.5 with no issues yet, but again, i just might be lucky with the roms i use for daily drivers (mainly InsertCoin) and my apps/files
Alright so data + system data and everything comes back. Isn't that the same thing as restoring just the data from the advanced menu in recovery?
No that restores the Rom you used while making the back up

yep, titanium is ONLY for app and data within android, whereas teh recovery backup is a COMPLETE backup of your partitions, and full rom the the day, hour, minute and second that you backed it up
No, but when you go to advanced restore, and select data, would that just work?
truth be told, ive never tried, i prefer the ability to pick and choose the apps to be restored, if necessary. i would assume it does a full data backup/restore that functions essentially the same...
why not give it a shot, and post the results?
I'm guessing it's the same, when I install a new rom, I just wipe cache, dalvik, and system and go ahead and install the update so my data partition always stays... I don't know if that does anything to the rom, by bringing in junk left by the previous rom but we'll see the next time Baad releases a new version of InsertCoin
Hey Guys!
So I've been around the place for a while, usually passive. I rooted my phone a few months back, and left it at that coz i was too scared of bricking my new phone . But now getting tired of waiting for the official ICS (Not the buggy leak) has got me thinking of getting a custom Rom (cant decide between Victory or Romulus).
I've just installed CMW, and my phones backing up as we speak. My question is this, is it possible to restore a partial backup? Im hoping that once i get the custom rom up and running, i can restore my contacts, texts and apps onto my new rom. I know titanium backup can restore apps but i assume all that is gone once i format before installing the rom, right?
Thanks guys any help appreciated!

When you install any new ROM, you (usually) need to perform a full wipe through CWM including: wipe user data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik, then flash. Now, that will delete ALL of your stuff, contacts, texts, apps, etc. However, if you have access to WiFi, when your ROM flash has completed, you will be prompted to re-enter your Google account and, at which time, your contacts will re-populate (give it some time). Though, be sure you sync with Google's servers prior to your flash, so that any new contacts will be re-added once your account has been added after the flash. Also, if on WiFi, when your account has been entered, go to Google Play Store, and click the "my apps" button, and again after some time (depending on the number of apps you had) they too will re-populate. As far as texts, you could try a text backup app -not too familiar with this, as I don't ever have a need to save any texts- and you should be good. Word of warning: DO NOT use Titanium Backup to restore ANY application data, only the apps themselves. Also, another good alternative to TIB is App Backup & Restore. Hopefully, this clears up any doubts you have with your "stuff" and how to retrieve it after a flash...
Apex used capital letters in "do not restore app data" with good reason. Only a handful of times have I not followed those directions and every time I got weird fc's and an overall more unstable system. It's a shame there isn't a good way to do it but it only leads to heartache. Always keep a solid backup. I keep two. One original and another after a couple days on a new rom so that I'm able to experiment down the line.
I hope you have a good experience with your new system and learn a bit. It gets a little addicting.

So, once i clear everything and flash, to get back my apps all i have to do is reinstall "App Backup and Restore" then I can restore any saved apps? Because looking at the play store, the list in my apps (Not Installed) is too long, and contains apps that i simply installed to try and immediately removed.
One more thing as well, well actually 2. I was watching a video by mastermind278 on youtube on how to install custom Roms. He installs a rom by selecting restore from cmw recovery, so my question is, does that restore method work for installing most Roms, say for example, the Romulus rom? And finally, are the separate mods installed in the same way?

You can 'manually' select which apps you'd like to restore from within this app, so if there are some you'd rather forgo restoring, you can pick and choose.
As far as the flashing method through CWM, you'll just have to read and understand each of the ROM's flashing methods, as some of the GB ROM installs are different (flash or CWM restore). All of which are detailed in the threads for these ROM's. Along with that, any mods you'd like, you'll just need to refer to the install instructions for each...

This is a noobs Guide to how to use Titanium Backup .
Many of the users might have heard of a app named Titanium Backup. Its the most used app in the Android Market who frequently flash ROMS and for those who doesnt want to download all apps again and again from Store after flashing new ROMS.
What is Titanium Backup?
Titanium Backup is an app which can backup all your app+data in just one click(Even system apps but not recommened).Can delete system apps,convert system apps to user apps.
So how to use.
Note: Your phone must be rooted and USB debugging should be on which is present in developer options while installing.
Lets start with first thing you see after installation.
If you face a root acces failure then tap on option button of your phone scroll down tap on reload application.
You will see 3 tabs:
1.Overview
2.Backup/Restore
3.Schedule
Overview will give you the short details of your root device and memory.
Like Root access. Data profile(Used to set any filters for a app). Memory details of your partitions and usage.
Backup/Restore will show the details of the apps installed in you phone.
You will see different type of apps highlighted in different colors
White: The apps you installed
Red: System apps which can be converted to system apps.
Yellow: Most important system apps which can not be moved(Dont uninstall or else you need to reflash your rom again).
Schedules sets a time for backup.
You can set the type of backup you want at a particular time.
Those who frequently change roms check the 4th post for restore and backup.
Backup specific app
Here comes the real use of Titanium Backup. The backup/Restore Part.
Here you will see the list of apps installed in your phone.
First lets see how to backup a single app.
Now tap on the app.
You will see two tabs
1.Backup Properties
2.Special Properties
1.Backup Properties
a. Backup : This will backup your selected app as app+data.
b. Freeze : This will disable the app.
Rest of the things you know from the name
When backup is complete again tap on the app you took backup. You will see a tab Restore and delete of the app.
Select restore you will see 3 options App+Data, App Only , Data Only
App+Data will restore apk as well as data(Data consists of settings,login info in short user defined settings and all you made for that app)
App will restore app only. Data will restore data only.
2.Special Properties
It is made of 4 sections:
1. General
2. Play store/ Market
3. Storage
4. System ROM.
1General Section is easily understandable.(I hope You can)
In general section there is a option named " Send latest backup" you can send to other phone or store it locally and restore(Check 4th post). The backup is stored in .TiBkp
2. Playstore/Market shows the links of the app in playstore.
3. Storage Section is also understanable. In explore it shows the files it uses and the location of files where it is installed with DB)
4. System ROM section can be used to convert a user application app to system app.
In some app you will see "Force remove app" I would suggest dont click on it.
User app is shown in white after you convert it in system app it will become red.
Schedule
Backup all user apps at one click.
There are two ways to backup data.
1st through schedule.
2nd through advanced option(Check the 4th post)
In schedule tab you will see two schedule as default
1. Redo backups for modified data
2. Backup new user apps & newer versions
1.Redo backups for modified data.
What it does is takes the backup of new data of all user apps(Like whatsapp chats,new user settings etc).
2. Backup new user apps & newer versions
This schedule automatically backups the newer versions(Updated version) at a given schedule time.
If you want you can manually run the schedules by just clicking on run. Titanium backup will be minimized. The progress can be seen in notification drawer. After completion it will vibrate.
So now you have taken the backup of all your apps through just one click.
You can add new schedule as you want.
Restore and backup all apps at once and restore your apps from previous roms \.
This is the most advanced part of Titanium Backup.
After installing new rom you will see a warning showing change in android device ID. Details are given in warning messsage.
Now click the option button of you phone.
You will see 7 sections:
1.General
2.Play store/Market
3.Storage
4.Import/Export
5.Special Backup/Restore
6.Your Device
7.Special Features
1.General section there 4 options:
1 Filters: This section filters the apps you want to see. If you want to see only user apps select only User. The change can be seen in backup/Restore Tab. As you have selected user apps you will see all the apps in white.
2. Batch Restore: This section should be used properly. This section restores app+data in just one click.
This is distributed in 10 sections:
1. Verify Backup: Verifys backup.
2. Backup: Select the type of backup: Use the 1st one "Backup all user apps" Dont backup system data as it will create conflict in new rom when you restore it.
When you select this option all your user apps will be displayed.
3.Restore: This option will restore all backups.
When you select the 2nd option "Restore all apps with data". In top you will see three options App+Data, App only, Data Only.
If you dont want to restore a particular just untick that app and it will not be installed.
If you find that some apps are not restore just select the 1st option " Restore missing apps with data". It will show the list of unrestored apps.
4. Move/ Integrate: This section moves apps to sd card or from sd card to internel. Dont RUN the 3rd option "Integrate updates" As it will create a conflict.
5. Freeze/ Defrost: This section disables the apps.
6. Android Market: Links for the user apps.
7. Manipulate data: This section clears data of all user apps at once. Rest i didnt use so cant tell(Last 3 option).
8. Recovery mode: In this section you can create a update.zip of all your apps which can be flashed through recovery.
9. Uninstall: Will uninstall all your apps at once.
10. Delete Backups : This section will delete all the backup at once.
2. Play store /Market: This section consists of links of apps to the playstore.
3. Storage: In this 1st option shows the usage of the apps. Rest leave untouched.
4. Import: This will import the backups done by Titanium backup of a particular app (Check 2nd Post how to export a app)
5.Special Backup / Restore:
5.1 Backup data to xml : This section backup your msgs, call logs , wifi password.
5.2 Restore data from xml : This section will restore msgs, call logs , wifi password.
5.3 Extract from Nandroid backup : This section will restore app from the backup of your ROM made through recovery.
5.4 Extract from ADB Backup: Haven't used this feature so cant tell
6. Your Device: Reboot and Manage Android ID.
7. Special Feature:
It creates a update.zip of itself(Titanium Backup) which can be flashed through recovery.(Install Zipsigner from store to create update.zip)
Reload Application: Will Reload the app.
So finally you have restored all your apps. If you have missed an app to restore but dont want to take long process to restore just go to backup/restore tab. Scroll Down. You will see that particular app in strike through. Tap on that app. Select restore.
The backups are stored in sdcard in a folder named "Titanium Backup". Dont delete this folder or else you will lose all your backed up apps.
Future
For future use.
Thank you. I've heard of Titanium Backup but never used it. Does backing up use a lot of data?

I think you mean space? Off course buddy backup will take space.. The more you install apps and take backup it will consume space in your card..
Hit thanks buddy that's much needed instead of saying..:thumbup:

I meant data, but after re-reading the article, I realized that the backup is stored on the SD card and not in a cloud. Sorry for the confusion.
hello there
it is safe to remove Samsung Apps such as S Planner, S Voice using "Force remove app" function?

It is safe but make a backup first then remove it. As this are system apps I won't recommend to remove it cz this apps could be associated with other apps which may not work properly if you remove them..

I installed new Rom and After restoring the message, it gets deleted in few seconds. I already ticked the "system data migration" option in preferences

It's OK... I was switching from 4.1 to 4.4. Both os uses different core apps. May be that's why I can't restore the data.

Unable to Restore APKs
Hi all. Hopefully someone can tell me how dense I am for not being able to solve this problem (or whether it's a problem at all). I have an Asus TF700 and recently changed from a stock-based jb custom rom to a cyanogenmod-based kk custom rom. On the old rom I ran the batch bakup all user apps filter, wiped tab from recovery, then installed new rom. TB was already installed on new rom so I just opened it, granted su, enabled USB debugging, and went to batch restore option. All of my app data is available for restore but none of the downloaded user apks themselves are backed up. When I open up the backup properties display for each app it shows Has App: No, Has Data: Yes. I was hoping to batch restore all user apps + data but the only way I can do it now is to install each app individually from the Play Store and then batch restore the data. This has the potential to be a very long process. I don't know if I made a mistake during TB backup or if my new rom/wipe is the problem. I'm hoping someone can point out to me where I went wrong. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks.

hi, @a-t0m as you are describing your problem.. I think you are not selecting the proper option..
When you open TB you will see a tab called schedule..
In that select add new schedule.. You will see drop down list..
Tap on the first drop down list.. You will see option of backup all user data. Select it.. Save it.. Manually run it or schedule as you like.. Your apk as well as data will be saved..
Hi, wondering if anyone may have a suggestion. I'm not getting any action restoring a backed up User Dictionary with TB. It seems to create the backup but not restore it. Tried both data and app+data and reboots but still no action. HTC One rooted ARHD 71.1 (4.4.2)

Well you can try is manually take backup..
How? tap on your dictionary app take a backup..
Now restore that only.. See if that helps..
Data not restored?? Tap on the app again.. tap on wipe data.. Now restore data only not app+data or app only..

Yes, it is. These are bloatware, not required by the system to run.
Cloud sync
I have the full version of TIBackup and used the sync feature to have a copy of my backups in my Google Drive account (manual sync, I lauch it every now and then or just when I want to backup a particular app), what does it happen if I want to cancel them from my phone memory (a nexus 5, if it matters)? next time I make a backup and I give the sync command, will it delete those backup files from my cloud too?
I want to keep them only in my google Drive account.
I have been having issues with Titanium for long time across multiple roms. I have pro version. I have it set to keep 3 latest backups and to restore titanium settings automatically. However, when I do a clean install of a rom and I try to restore apps manually the restore button is missing. It shows the date the backup was created and the delete button is on the right but there is no restore button on the left. I can restore backups from Nandroid using Titanium but this takes forever and the backups are not as fresh.
Any help would be a lifesaver!
