I want to change to another rom, what i asking is, after backup with titanium backup. Do i have to wipe everything, including internal storage? If so, how can we restore the apps data, copy the titanium file to the computer first and then paste it to phone when the new rom flashed?

From TWRP, wipe eveything but internal storage. Your Titanium backups won't be deleted.

I have few questions about backups:
Nandroid:
1) So when I restore from a nandroid backup what do I exactly restore. I restore the rom this means any .zip mods I installed are gone. Do I restore radio, kernel, firmware, hboot?
2) When I do nandroid backup what happens to applications and data?
Titanium
3) What exactly system data backup (batch) backups? If I want to backup my my settings and WI-fi pairings and sms and phone call history and maybe some other 2-3 little things. If I do system data backup I will backup these things but when I restore if my previous configurations had lots of bloatware would I get unwanted things on my new configuration and slow down my phone?
4) Backing all user apps backups only .apks it means it installs the applications again?
5)User apps+ data means it will reinstall the apps and include saves and settings and etc right?
6) I've heard when backing up apps it's better to skip data why?
Thank you!
1. If you restore a previous backup then your mods will be gone (if they were not in that backup). kernel & firmware restored; hboot & radio not.
2.They get backed up (but not the data from the SD Card - just internal memory).
3. What you select (in Batch you can select). You just delete bloatware using TB after restore.
4. Correct, for settings and data you need the APPS+DATA option
5. Right
6. To avoid any complication with newer/older firmware - I always restored with data, and had no issues.
Thank you!
I just didn't understand completly about nandroid backup and apps.
If I use my phone for 5 days and install 5 aps and do a backup then use it 6 more days and install 6 more aps. After I do a nandroid restore the 6 aps installed after backup are lost and from the 5 installed before backup the ones that are not on SD will be restored. Correct? And if this is correct the restored apps will be only apk or apk + data?

What is the best program to do a full Android backup, including apps, additional files, Folders, Contacts, etc.... ??
Titanium Backup... requires root access.
Titanium Backup but if you want a complete back even of your firmware then a Nandroid backup using CWM
But Titanium backup doesn't backup folders!

Titanium Backup covers everything you need to restore the device after a factory reset. A factory reset normally does not affect the internal or external sdcard (which you can easily backup yourself).
Titanium Backup can save external app data (unlimited, never or up to a certain amount of memory), configurable in the settings.
But as you backup to the internal or external sd card, TB would backup itself when storing everything blowing up the backup.
Hello, when I select backup to external SD and I then select advance restore from external sd after the backup, it gives me some option such as restore, system, data, and even external SD. However, it doesn't provide the option of restoring internal SD. Why? When I made a Nandroid backup, isn't it backup everything?

No, when you make a Nandroid backup, it backups two folders, /data and /system. /sdcard0 is not backed up when creating a Nandroid Backup. You would need to use another utility such as Titanium Backup.
I wipe catche sys dalvik then factory reset then flash rom (liquidsmooth 2.10) gaaps and bms kernel after all that i was setting back up my settings apps etc then realized i needed something from my txt saved on backup file so i put back my backup files to internal storage wen i go to TWRP restore thers no files there but i can see the files in es file explorer.. Any suggestions how to get my backups back so twrp can restore them
What directory did you place your backup files in? It's possible they got wiped. I know it doesn't help now but I recommend buying TitaniumBackup it's the best app I've used for those types of issues.

Hi guys, i received a new N5 because my old one was broken.
So i did a TWRP and a Titanium Backup to keep EVERYTHING i had on my old N5.
After restoring my TWRP Backup (System, Data, Cache, Boot, Recovery) on my new device i noticed that every media is gone.
(music, pictures, ringtones, wallpapers, etc).
Apps and settings have been restored.
Is TWRP not backing up that data or did i screw up?
Thanks for you help!
edit:
50% of my storage have been used on my old N5.
The TWRP Backup is about 2,2GB.
Is this a realistic value which indicates that everything has been backed up or is this Backup too small for all data?
Thats on the /sdcard. Recovery does not backup sdcard. If you think about it, if it backs up sdcard, how would it fit the backup ON sdcard
