[Q] Accidentaly changed Google Play ID and lost links

I was testing Titanium Backup and create a .zip file to flash while in recovery.
When I've booted the phone, it says if I want to restore back (at least I've thought I've read this...) my ID.
I answered yes.
Now, all my apps disappeared from Google Play.
I've lost all my links and wouldn't be able, in the future, to update paid apps...
I've restored a nandroid backup but it did not solve anything...
I've tried to restore the market links using Ultimate Backup Pro but I couldn't...
Is there anybody who can help me!

Help with a Titanium Backup issue

Just flashed the Darth Stalker ROM to my TMO Galaxy S3. Before that I made a titanium backup of all my apps, and a nandroid backup. After I flashed the new rom and restored all my apps, the call log and sms/mms log aren't there anymore. Every search result I've found say to enable the data migration option, but I can't find that anywhere on this version of titanium backup. I've tried to backup app+data, but it always says it's failed because it's already installed, so I just try to restore data, and it says it does, I reboot, but still no logs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i have always avoided using titanium backup for such quirky issues and the FC/bootloops it generates .

Is there something better than Titanium that I should be using?

Google backup fails on Nexus 5

Hi guys.
Sorry in advance in case of double thread, I looked around but didn't find anything similar.
Recently my Nexus 5 sends me this daily alert: "backup failed. It's been 3 days since last backup". If I click on this notice, it sends me to the backup settings page, and starts a new backup attempt that freezes at the very first step.
Every setting seems correct to me, and I'm at my wit's end.
I am waiting for a new device, so it would be great updating my data backup, so I could restore everything in my new phone simply by logging with my Google account.
I can send screenshots, but they're in Italian.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you all.

take Titanium backup always works. 1st try Syncing the account like app data and stuff then manually backup!

Thanx for your suggestion. I should root the device in order to use Titanium, right?
Anyway, I woud like to undertsand what's wrong in Google backup anyway, if anyone else can help.

CLOSED - DUPLICATED How do you backup apps when moving to a new ROM/Phone?

I was wondering how you guys usually backup your phone when going from let's say stock to LineageOS? I was wondering this because I feel my way takes more time than it needs to and if there's a better method I'm glad to hear it.
I'll go first:
I backup first through Titanium backup which is a great app for restoring most data such as wifi passwords and app data for some apps. Secondly I'll make a backup using Helium because it backs up some apps that aren't compatible with TB's way of handling things such as Defenders III. Thirdly and most Important backup I make is through twrp in case I need to go back and get something I forgot or if the new ROM bootloops.
