if you back it up by update.zip you have to flash it via recovery.
I usually just back up and restore using the batch method.
Not working. It doesnt even detect the file. Oh well i downloaded everything again

I rooted & ROM'd a friends phone last night. He asked me to try to save his Angry Birds app/data because he'd won so many levels, it would take forever to get them back.
But I forgot!
So I've got his nandroid but can't just flash it to my phone because it's got a gesture lock and I don't think you can hack those.
So is it possible to pull his Angry Birds data from the nandroid backup I took of his phone before flashing it?
Nandroid the new setup.

I figured out how to recover the angry birds old scores data.
Just copy the nandroid to your computer desktop.
Use something to extract it (I use 7zip).
Navigate to this folder:
\data.ext4\data\data\com.rovio.angrybirds\files
Copy these two files:
/highscores.lua
/settings.lua
Then copy them to your phone.
Open root explorer and navigate to:
\data.ext4\data\data\com.rovio.angrybirds\files
Rename these two original files to .old for the file extension.
/highscores.lua
/settings.lua
Then move the two files you extracted earlier and paste them into this folder.
Works great.
Maybe this would help...

if you are rooted then make backup of gunbros with titanium backup and also backup its data files too
I hope it is the right forum to ask.
I've just flashed my GS2 to JB 4.1.2 and Rooted.
Before that I made a mistake and backup my files with Go backup pro.
Now I can't restored because it is not find my backup files on the path..
I have searched in your forum vertically and horizontally and I found some thread about this problem but without a solution.
Could someone please advice me how to restore my files back?
Thank you very much.

I also backup my files using Go Backup pro. The backups by default are in external sdcard ( sdcard1). After flashing a rom you reinstall Gobackup Pro from Play Store. Launch the app and you will see the two tabs onscreen : backup tab and restore tab. Just click the restore tab and you see a prompt showing all backup files. Choose the latest files and click restore.

I tried it and still I don't have any backups on screen.. :crying:
See which storage has been set as default. ( under settings - storage)
If you backed up to SD and now internal memory is made as default, it won't show the files. (as it searches only internal memory)

Thank you for your answer.
I did backup on the SD card.
I did check and both shows no backup..
GoBackup doesnt recognize old backup files problem solved!
OK...got something for all of u punks like me out there. After installing new ROM i couldn't restore my backuped upfiles with GoBackup coz app couldn't recognize or find old backup files. I really had some important stuff there and wasn't intending to just give up. I have read many forums but everyone said to just give it up and forget it. Said hell no! So after few days of trying (reinstalling rom,gobackup,deleting caches and god knows what else i have tried) i came a cross of this lame idea . I actually opened GoBackup files on my GoogleDrive(so.... i had backup but app couldn't find it or recognize it to be able to restore it) and checked what i had installed. Made a list and installed all apps i had when i was making backup. Then i installed apps and made backup via gobackup. And here it goes... i copyed old backup files in latest backup directory , renamed old backup files using names from new files. So u get your old backup using file names of latest backup. Now app will recognize your old backup coz u renamed them. App thinks your old backup is actually latest backup. U just go into app and restore your things.
So:
1.Check out your GoBackup directory where u have your backup files (which after rooting app doesn't find or recognize) and make a list of apps u wanna restore
2.Install apps from your list
3.Make new backup of all apps u wanna restore later(old ones u had installed)
4.Now open backed up files that u wanna restore and open latest backup directory and rename old files using names from new backup files.
5.After renaming old backup files, move them into latest backup directory replacing latest backup files with renamed ones.
6.Go to GoBackup app and make restore of latest backup which is actually old one .
Found an easy solution
1. Connect your phone via cable.
2. Open SD card, locate GOBackup folder and press copy.
3. Go to local memory and press paste.
Now open GOBackup on your device, and its a miracle, all your backup there
Currently running Dirty Unicorns 5.0.2 on my Nexus 7 Flo
I've just run a nandroid backup in TWRP 2.8.5.0, and after trying to use "Extract from Nandroid backup" in Titanium Backup, all my app backups show only having data for the apps and not the apps themselves. Trying to restore the nandroid in recovery causes my tablet to boot to a black screen.
After looking in the /data/app/ folder using a file explorer, i noticed that each app is sorted into individual folders as shown in the attached screenshot (as opposed to on KK, where this folder used to be full of just the .apk's) so i'm assuming this must be a change in the way Lollipop manages installed apps?
I have used the flashable zip found here on XDA for the modded Playstation Remote Play app, and this is the only app in the /data/app folder not in a specific folder like everything else, so in Titanium Backup it shows up as a smiley face (meaning the backup contains the app+data).
Has this happened to anyone else? because of this i can't restore nandroid /data partition backups through recovery or with Titanium Backup which is beyond frustrating
Ideas?

App folders changed in Lollipop just as you supposed. Easy way to fix it: Install all the apps you need and then restore the "data" by extracting from nandroid backup using Titanium Backup. Its a little annoying but it works
