[Q] how do i backup apps as .apk files?

i would like to backup apps to a .APK file so i can put them on the computer .....TB (titanium backup) doesn't seem to put them in just a .apk so how can i do this?
id like to be able to use "adb install _______.apk" to put apps on a phone all at once without needing to buy TB as i don't have the money....

I just found an app that does that this morning. It's called apkExtractor by Kim Heeseok. I'd post a link, but you need 8 total posts before you can do that.

*sigh* can you put the link in a PM? or just put spaces between the parts so it doesn't register as a link, i can put it back together when i get it.

Here (delete brackets around https and .com):
[h][t][t][p]://play.google[.com]/store/apps/details?id=net.sylark.apkextractor
Edit: Just as a note, inside of the app, a long press of the app you want to export will give you the option to export it as an apk. It will be exported to "/sdcard/AppManager/yourappname.apk".

Titanium Backup
you can download it

Titanium Backup DOES back up apks, they just have them compressed...IIRC, you'll see the appname.apk.gz

You could also use something like ES File Explorer, which has a backup function. Other apps have similar capabilities.

I use the computer side of the 'wan dou jia' export! It is one of China's software.

i was also looking for the same.So i won't need to download the apps everytime after flashing or any other reason.
thanks mate

I gave up and use titanium backup pro

A short video tutorial on how to backup apps as apk files.

I am using astro file to backup my apks. It is quite user friendly imo.
