Sorry if this question has been posed already, I tried searching the forums.
I finally rooted my Thunderbolt with Bamf remix 1.5 and have everything setup. When version 1.6 comes out and I want to upgrade, what should I use to backup all of my apps and data so I can restore everything after upgrading the ROM.
Thanks in advance!
Use Titanium Backup for apps and data. If you need help, let me know. Titanium Backup's UI isn't the most user friendly.
You should always make a backup of your current ROM before flashing anything new. Incase something goes wrong you can revert to your backup. Just use ROM Manager for that.
Thank so much. I made a backup and saved it as update.zip. The problem is when I browse my sdcard with root explorer there is nothing in the "Titanium Backup" folder.
OK nevermind. I think I've got it.

Okay, cool. I would recommend getting the Pro version so you can do batch backups. Although, that feature might be on the free verson. I dunno.
I think you can do batch backups on the free version but only for Apps. I think I tried that last night.
On the free version you have to manually hit install for each individual app and the paid version does of for you in batch mode. It is well worth it to purchase the paid version of titanium, along with root explorer and rom manager if you are new to the root game. Good luck.
My device:
I have a 7" iDeaUSA YG A777 Android Tablet that is rooted. The version of Android it is running is 4.0.3. The kernel on the device is 3.0.8-tcc [email protected] #97.
My problem:
When I try to back up my device using the MyBackup app, the device reboots in the middle of the backup. When I attempt another back up after the reboot, I get the same results. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the app, but that doesn't work. Clearing the app's cache doesn't work, either. I also tried doing a factory reset and restoring everything manually, but that also didn't work. I read a few posts that suggested that the SD card or USB flash drive might be the cause, but that isn't the case (at least in regards to my situation) because the same thing happens when I try to back up online to MyBackup's database with no SD card or USB flash drive attached.
I also tried using Titanium Backup ★ root, but I got the exact same results as I did with MyBackup, so the problem isn't app specific. One thing that did work was not allowing root access to MyBackup. When that is denied, I can back up my device as many times as I want. However, since MyBackup has been denied root access, it can only back up the apps on my device, not the data that accompanies those apps. That's a problem because the main reason that I'm backing up my device is to back up the apps on my device AND its data.
I've been at this for three days. During that time, going through all of the steps that I've listed here has made the backup go through completely without rebooting once or twice, but the reboot problem persists more often than not. I’m out of ideas to try. Any suggestions would be helpful.
I finally figured out what the problem was. I mentioned in my first post that I used Titanium Backup and got the same results as I did with MyBackup Pro. However, when I used Titanium Backup, MyBackup Pro was still granted root privileges. I think when Titanium Backup got to the MyBackup Pro app to back it up, it activated something with the app that was causing it to reboot my tablet. In other words, what I did to fix my problem was I denied root privileges to MyBackup Pro and Titanium Backup now works fine and produces a successful backup everytime. So, MyBackup Pro was the problem.

I do use 4.0.3. However, rooting a device depends on the brand of the device. For example, the process to root a Google Nexus tablet might be different than the process to root a Samsung Galaxy tablet. What you should do is put your phone or tablet's brand into a Google search engine and then add "root" to the search query (Ex: "Google Nexus 7 root").
I recently flashed a new rom (the last time I did this was almost 2 years ago so I forgot what to do). Titanium backup has been doing weekly updates for a long time. So when I started up the phone titanium backup is gone, I read that I must redownload from the play store, but when I run it, it says I failed to acquire root privileges. It tells me to get busy box, so I download that too, but that won't install properly.
What should I do now? Have I lost root? The bootloader is available...that means it's still rooted right? The internal sd card still shows my folder of titanium backup and all the other root folders I used to have on my phone, I just can't get titanium backup to run so i can't restore.
Thanks!

If you flash a new rom root is lost.
You have to root again.
S.R.
A few of the JB ROMS were causing issues with root. The fix was to re-flash the SU (superuser) apk and that would fix things right up. You should be able to find it doing a search.
Good luck and hope this helps!

Lets start with a few basic questions... dont mean to offend you, just wanna make sure its not something you may have overlooked.
What rom did you flash?
What, if anything, did you wioe in recovery?
Did you get a superuser or supersu prompt when titanium started?

Not necessarily so. Most custom roms are pre-rooted by the dev. Ive flashed countless roms and until recently w/ jb not had any issues w/ root access.

it pretty much looks like this in TitBack, give or take a few letters: "[SMS/MMS/APN] Phone/Messaging...". when you tap on it, the pop-up recognizes it as "Phone/Messaging Storage". this is where your text messages are.
some 3rd-party MMS apps like GoSMS Pro can back up your messages too, and I believe there's also an app or two solely for backing up your messages to your sdcard/internal storage.
Titanium Batch restore fail
Hi all
Having a few problems, I'm new to flashing roms and the use of Titanium Backup and I've just flashed my second ROM. I've gone from CM9 to CM10. Before doing so I created a backup of apps + data.
I flashed the ROM fine, and ran the batch restore function in Titanium. I have all the icons on my homescreen from the previously installed apps but after clicking on them my phone tells me that app isn't installed. I then notice that my notification from Titanium's batch restore shows the apps I had downloaded from the play store failed to restore (the notification said that the elements failed after batch restore was complete).
I noticed that these apps have a line through them when the list of apps I want to restore appears.
Titanium then advised me that the apps did not restore as the Android ID had changed, So I then reverted to the previous android ID thinking this to be the solution. However, after running the restore function again, the same amount of elements failed to restore.
Due to my lack of knowledge in Titanium and my need for these apps, I turned to the play store and decided to manually redownload all the apps again. This does not work either! The error message I get is the apps cannot be downloaded due to an error (491). I guess this is to do with the android ID changing?
Please help, how can I get these apps to restore? and also how can I be able to download apps from the play store again? :crying:
EDIT: So I was able to reinstall the apps from the play store by wiping the dalvik + cache.
This still leaves me baffled as to why Titanium wasn't able to do this

Did you try to restore system apps? I always use tb w/ the pro key to restore user apps + data, and have been getting the changed android id lately, but whether I keep the new id or revert to the old one, my restore works. Depending on what ROM I'm going to or from, sometimes I have to change my home screen shortcuts for system apps.

I didn't select restore system apps, instead I selected restore all apps with data, failing that I tried restore missing apps + all system data.
What option should I normally be selecting to do a straight restore after flashing a ROM? Does the fact that there is a line through the apps that I'm trying to restore mean anything?
I always select "restore missing apps + data" it's the 1st option under restore in the batch menu. The apps with a line through them are the ones that tb recognizes as being backed up but not installed.

That's why u always make a backup, I don't understand, why did u wipe the device to root? U don't need to, unless u had to unlock the bootloader to, but that's simple enough, just make a backup, and no titanium backup probably doesn't work with 6.0 yet

BTW Backup+ works on M.
EInstead of being unhelpful and spammy like the posts above, I'll help. Revert to supersu 2.49 and install the appropriate elemental x kernel.

I had the same issue, and although I didn't have the time to investigate it much, the problem seems to be the following:
Backups used to be located at
Code:
storage/emulated/0/TitaniumBackup (sdcard)
and they are now saved to
Code:
storage/emulated/legacy/TitaniumBackup
The second path is only accessible with a root browser. I think that if you've rooted your phone and you move (or better yet copy some for testing) your backups there, TB will see them again.
At first I thought it was a bug with TB and Android M, but now I start to wonder if it has something to do with ElementalX since I've also flashed that kernel to my device.
Use SELinuxModeChanger (Google it, is not in the play store) to set permisive mode. That worked for me
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
SELinux permissive mode is the solution! Kernel Audiutor has an installable plugin for changing SELinux mode.
Permissive mode is not working for me, for some reason. TitaniumBackup on Android 6.0/ElementalX v6.02/SuperSU v2.52 still saves at ''storage/emulated/legacy/TitaniumBackup'.
I tried both SELinuxModeChanger and the permissive.zip flashable that ElementalX post is supplying.

6.0 support was added with SuperSU 2.50+. Stop being unhelpful and spammy.
I'm having problem with titanium bkp. I had backup all my apps with data on 5.1.1 and flashed 6.0.1 rom. Now titanium bkp doesn't detect my bkp.
Tried many things like
copy bkp files to internal,
just made an app bkp and copy my bkp files to that folder etc.
still my TB doesn't detect my old bkp
Can you make sure that the filename casing is as TiBkp expects it?
Move away TitaniumBackup and data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup, then create a backup and see what TiBkp creates for these two folders.
I've had instances of TiBkp not seeing data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup because it was named Data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup (note the uppercase D at Data).
Dear community,
honestly I considered myself not a noob anymore when it comes to flashing, rooting and installing devices. But obviously I was wrong: Cyanogenmod, Titanium Backup and SuperSU are fooling me to madness. :silly: So I hope to find help here because all I want to do is to restore all apps' data. But I will start at the beginning:
I updated my rooted Nexus 7 LTE to CM 13.0-20151226-NIGHTLY-deb and it turned out that Google Play Services continue to crash, no PlayStore could be loaded and so on. I've searched for this issue and don't want to discuss this here as there are many threads for this already.
However, I deciced to switch to OpenGapps and downloaded the pico package for Android 6 on ARM.
By the way I also switched from CWM recovery to TWRP 2.8.7.1.
Finally, CM was running as expected and I danced my pants off!
During all this I formatted the device completely, but made a backup of all apps using Titanium Backup.
So, I re-installed Titanium Backup, copied the backup files to the device and started to "restore missing apps and data" from the bulk operations menu.
All selected apps were installed perfectly (danced again) but then I noticed that the apps' data was not restored.
I searched for this issue and found instructions saying that SuperSU is needed for Titanium Backup to restore data. That was new to me as TB worked fine without SuperSU on my device all the time.
However, I flashed the latest stable Version of SuperSU from chainfire.
After rebooting, the SuperSU app was installed and when it starts, an error popup appears saying that no su file is installed and this has to be done manually.
When I now start Titanium Backup, it prompts missing root access and consequently does not start up.
Furthermore CM is really unstable and freezes from time to time.
So, I lost root by flashing SuperSU? What irony!
Anyway, I am willing to format and re-install my device another time and I would gladly set SuperSU aside as I never needed it in the past. But I really need to get Titanium Backup working to restore the apps' data.
Can anyone of you help me on this, please? Is SuperSU really necessary or do you know a way to manage Titanium Backup without SuperSU on CM13?

lmao, your title is nice!
i believe your problem is you used the wrong su zip, you need the latest beta, not stable. should be .52 if im not mistaken. .52 is stable even though its not listed as, i have been using it for some time, and its whats needed for M. you may even find some .6 versions, dont use those, they are systemless, well you can if you want lol. i havent tried them yet, so i dont know what pitfalls may lurk.
Thank you for your help and I am happy to entertain

I will try to update SuperSU as soon as possible.
But sadly TWRP now freezes a few moments after I start the device in recovery mode. When the device starts normally, it freezes as well while showing the CM launcher screen. It stays animated but nothing happens. I will try to re-install TWRP via fastboot flash and then install SuperSU .52 and post my experiences here. :fingers-crossed:

Sorry to say so but SuperSU .52 does not solve the problem. In fact, after flashing the BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip using TWRP, CM does not start up anymore. The loading screen with the hypnotizing smiley appears and stays animated but even after 15 minutes CM does not start up. Even TWRP was freezing from time to time.
So I re-installed TWRP, CM and Gapps like in my first post again.
So, is the problem that my device is not rooted indeed? Could this be fixed with CF-autoroot or any tool like this?
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448352 although it is for the device deb-razor and my device's bootloader says it is a deb-zoo. By the way, the bootloader displays "LOCK STATE - unlocked".

hmmm,
i havent used 2.52 on a cm rom, but i have used it on plenty aosp 6.0.* roms without issue.
clean things up so its booting again, then look in developer options and make sure root is turned on. i have seen a few times devs default it to off, but i have never seen a custom rom come not rooted at all.

I cleaned everything up -- meaning re-installed everything -- so the device boots up. I checked the developer options and root is set to "apps only". That worked up to now.
Speaking of root: As I wrote I used to have CWM and switched to TWRP. Anyhow, CWM always asked to "fix root" when exiting. I think that's why things worked then and now with TWRP this "fix root" option is gone. But why is SuperSU not working for my Nexus 7 deb? I also tried to install older versions like advised in the Nexus 7 thread here but there was not even a SuperSU app.
So, I recap: CWM used to fix root, TWRP does not. That's why installing SuperSU seems to be a good idea. SuperSU's latest version freezes CM at start-up. Without SuperSU Titanium Backup does not restore app data while other apps do not have problems to get root access. I'm confused

so to clarify your last paragraph, when you say that installing supersu breaks things, were talking about the zip right?
i just want you to get the app from the play store, if you havent tried that alone yet. but change the root setting too.

Correct, I was talking about the zip which is meant to be installed through TWRP.
So, I downloaded the SuperSU app after double-checking that root is set to "Apps & ADB" in the developer settings. Btw. debugging and installation from unknown sources (I hope this is the right translation for this feature) is enabled as well.
When I started the SuperSU app, it first says the binary SU needs an update and I could choose the installation method: When choosing "normal", the app tried to install but failed saying "Installation failed! Restart device and try again!" but even after restarting this was what the app gave me. When I chose "TWRP" the app rebooted the device to recovery but I assume this would end up in installing the zip file which crashed my CM.
Finally, I installed CF-autoroot for deb via the .bat file included in the CF-autoroot package. Now, SuperSU and Titanium Backup are not complaining anymore, so I think this root issue is fixed! :highfive: (couldn't find a dancing smiley).
However, Titanium Backup is not bringing back my app data The restore process seems good as Titanium Backup installs missing apps but even if I install an app the official way via PlayStore and then restore the app's data from my backup using Titanium Backup, there is no effect and the app acts like being installed freshly.
TB claims "restore successful" but the app's data is still missing. I will now check if the backup files are really sound and if I can get them to work on another device. The worst thing I could imagine is that TB did not backup data of apps which had been installed on sdcard. In that case, the data is lost, I'm afraid...
Do you have an idea how this could be or what I could try?

sorry, i really dont know what happens as far as titanium when you put an app on the sd.
glad you got root working though, although i still dont understand why it wouldnt work the right way.
if you run into any more specific road blocks, ill try and help if i can, but this general problem with the data, i havent a clue the problem or solution, short of the data isnt there completely.
Hi again,
sorry for my late reply! I tried a couple of things but here's the most obvious one:
Apparently the backup files are kind of corrupt. I don't know what went wrong there but TB did not create a full backup. Indeed there is a .tar.gz file for every app but in fact none of these has more than 2 KB. So I strongly assume that this might be the mistake - which also means that all my app's data is lost.
