New here to pixel and am having an issue with an app to connect to my NAS drive.
I have read on the apps forums that it needs to be converted to a system app. I have tried with titanium backup and titanium backup freezes up. I also tried with lucky patcher and it caused my system to be corrupted and I had to reflash the firmware. I also tried manually placing it in the system app folder and got the same results.
Does anyone have any idea how to do this on the pixel?

converting to a system app is not going to fix your problem. what program do you use for you nas and what brand is the nas

Its the ZyXel nas326 uses ZyXel drive app.
I beleive the app is not compatible with Pie as it has not been updates since 2017

Well there's your problem.
Converting an incompatible app into a system app is not going to fix it.
You might need a feature called "hairpin NAT" in your home router to connect to your NAS using a DNS address from home.

None of the processing modes work for me, and I get "parse error" when using the interactive mode. Any ideas?
i was able to restore succesfully
Hmm. Maybe it's because I downloaded straight from my Dropbox. I'll try directly copying the files.
Edit: That did the trick.
Any ideas why I might be getting a problem where I select an App, it says 'What would you like to restore?' and there are no buttons underneath to select App or Data?
Hi all,
Yes it should work with 2.3, I've already got positive reports, including a couple from G themselves
Parse error means an apk backup is corrupted. I'll do some additional tests on the Dropbox download code, since it might be related.
Thanks!

This happens when you have a data-only backup, and you can't restore it because the app is not installed anymore. The typical case is system apps that are gone in your new Rom.
Okay, it looks like I backed them up wrong I guess. Will have another go, thanks.
I tried again, still not working...
Each app has 3 files in the folder. Some apps I can install from the market and then re-apply the data, but others wont (K-9 Mail for example)
Any ideas?
This is very strange, you should definitely be able to restore the data from any backup, as long as the corresponding app is installed...

Indeed, there was a serious problem with the Dropbox download code. That's the last time I'm taking Dropbox's sample code for granted. It's fixed in 3.6.5 (and the problem existed only for *downloading*, not for uploading).
Thanks !
I can restore app data if I manually install the app first. I used to be able to batch backup all my apps and then batch restore them all. Why can't I from 2.2 to 2.3?

Probably something wrong with your source, in this case, the apps and data. I've had no issue at all besides updating busybox when I first launched the app. I just transfered the TB folder from my computer to the phone and did a restore, everything worked fine.

Thanks for the awesome quick fix! Just another reason why Titanium Backup is one of my most loved apps!

I've tried two backups now both the same problem.
Market busybox is 1.17, so I installed it (and ran it), but in TB it still says 1.16?

Am having difficulties too. Restoring from a Desire (Leedroid 2.2f) to a nice new Desire HD (Leedroid 1.51). Have even tried to restore from the original SD card, but Titanium on the HD never sees / recognises the backup made on the desire. And yes, the backup folders in titanium are set to the same name and path (default). The Titanium app versions are different - The newest version is on the HD and I understand that it is meant to support backups from previous versions. I can see all the backup files in the backup folder too. Any ideas or advice would be appreciated.

no problem at all
just hit restore all user apps
30 min later done
300+ apps (aprox 1 min each restore)

Wouldn't that be 300 minutes at 1 per minute...?
I think it's 0.1 mins/app, or about 6 seconds each based on your time and apps.
i do suck at match

i used to remember the whole multiplication table up to 12x12, and come up with the answer immediately
but now it takes me a while to even think the answer for 3x7 LOL

Should I try it via dropbox - Would it make any difference?
Am not using the same gmail address for the new phone - Does Titanium try and be very clever and link the backup to a user or a specific device?

Hello all on xda forums. I am new here and need some help restoring my phone. I was rooted on 4.2 Kitkat and decided to upgrade to 5.0 lolipop on my Galaxy S4 Active (GT-I9295). I made the mistake of using helium to backup my apps and now can not restore my apps. When I look in the app folders on my PC there are no files in the folders which makes it impossible to use the server client. I backed up the full app on helium so I would assume that there would be some files there. I've heard some people say that you have to re-install all of your apps and then restore the data. I have really slow internet and would like to avoid this method if possible. Let me know if you need more information. (Cant upload images since I'm new here sorry about that)

Something just happened and I can see my app files........I'm never using helium again. Apparently you need to download an app in order for all the data to show up? (If you cant tell, I have no clue what is going on)

I GOT IT! So apparently you need to download an app that you used to have and back up the fresh download in order for your old app data to show up. I had my old carbon folder stored on my SD card (Make sure you also back it up to your PC) when I downloaded the app onto my phone. So glad it works!
Hi guys, as the title says, I'm having problems restoring apps and app data both individually and through batch restore. I've tried changing the SuperSU mounting method, different versions of TB and changed the app processing mode. I've tried it all on the latest version of TB and the version before that. I have no problems backing up apps though. If I try manually installing the apk (after extracting it from the archive TB backs them up to) it installs fine. BusyBox is also installed, USB debugging is enabled and apps from unknown sources is also checked.
I would manually install all the apps, but I want app data restored too and it would be a very tedious job since I have quite a few to restore (some 173 apps) as I just updated to Marshmallow.
Any advice on what I could try next?
No advice, sorry. But I have the very same problem...
Might have been fixed in new update?

TB had an update today for Marshmallow support, so maybe that fixed it? Well, anyway I installed them with adb instead since I needed my phone today. I extracted all the apks from the archives and used a batch to list all my apks in a text file, then added "adb install X:\app dir" to the beginning of each line in the text file then changed the extension to .bat and found that TB would restore app data alone in the batch restore commands.
Code:
DIR *.apk /B>APKlist.txt
A fair bit of effort for all my apps, but I got them all back onto my phone eventually with all the data too. I'm happy now, but I'd still like a solution for future reference.
Todays TB update didn't fix it, at least for me.
Luckily I made the update to marshmallow so far only on a spare N7.

I wonder what the problem could be.... Do you know if there's an official thread for TB on here?
EDIT: I've emailed TB, waiting for a reply.
Same issue. It just hangs when trying to restore on Marshmallow.
I agonised over this for hours last night - turns out that the the fix for me was to switch SELinux to permissive mode.
Install this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=12506 -- open the app, switch to permissive, and give it another go.
I fogt the same problem for hours messing with everything I could think of and this fixed it thank you very much. I know it's a temporary fix until they get the application straightened out but hey its a fix

Not sure dude, sorry. Switching to permissive mode seemed to fix everything for me - Titanium Backup, Social Contact Sync, StickMount... pretty much everything that needed root.

thanks though
not sure why but if the app is already on the device(older version or with no data) then the restore works
so if i try restore an app(looks like only google apps are not restoring)..then tb just hangs at 0%...
once i manually install the app from the app store., tb stops hanging and restores the data?
maybe this can help someone figure out why restores wont work
I'm having the same issue with Titanium Backup Pro 7.6.0.1:
I backed up and validated user apps and data on my rooted Nexus 4 Cyanogenmod 13.0 Android 6.0.1;
Copied the folder to my SuperSU rooted Xiaomi Mi-5s Miui-8 Android 6.0.1;
Enabled apps from unknown sources;
Set SELinux mode to permissive;
$: su
# setenforce 0
# getenforce
# Permissive

Updated Titanium's backup storage by searching the device for the Storage folder then 'Reload Application';
Set a filter to list my backed-up user apps from the Nexus;
Set Preferences - App Processing Mode to Auto Direct, and Auto Indirect;
Ran a batch to restore 152 missing user apps with data
Tibu counts through the apps very rapidly, but doesn't install any.
I also made an update zip of apps and data in the new device, and updated it from TWRP without success.
What's the problem?
Thanks
Hello.
I'm having the same issue on titanium 7.6.0.1:
I've tried integrating update system apps into rom but those apps disappear:
-google play store
-android system web view
-smart suite
-talkback
-google text-to-speech output
and the most of my apps are not working now.
I've tried restoring a backup of them I have in titanium backup, but when I click to restore it just don't do anything (it stays at 0% for ever).
My phone is now not connected to my google account anymore now and I can't even add it going to Settings/Account.
Tried rebooting phone but nothing changed.
How do I get them back and the other apps back to work properly?
Thanks.
As I have the Pro version I emailed Titanium support with the problem - but no reply yet.
TiBu seems to work sometimes but not other times and support seems sadly lacking for a paid app; so I copied my issue and a link to this thread to their support.
This is my first post at XDA.
Recently I rooted my phone. I also installed Titanium Backup. I saw for apps in it and saw two Download and Gallery apps. I deleted one of each thinking of them as a duplicate created by the backing up using the Bacon Root Toolkit (I did everything using this, rooting, restoring, backup, etc.). I deleted the smaller app, thinking it is just a copy without user data (I think that App size (not the apk) increases when we use an app because some data is stored). Now the Gallery and Download app is missing. I think both of them were necessary.
Can you please help me. Should i do factory reset? or something else? or get those apks?
Note that i do not want to clear my internal memory because when restoring the data back by copying the data into the internal storage using Windows and Media transfer mode on OPO, I often get device disconnected or busy errors in between and thus could never actually copy data more than few gigs, also if I copy around 55 GB then if it stops in between, ihave many missing files deep into folders that I can't accept, allover, it's very frustating.
Actually I sent all the data using Shareit app to my phone.

Device Model: A0001,CyanogenMod version: 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL,Android Version: 5.1.1, Android security patch level: 2015-11-01.

If you have YOG4PAS3JL zip file, just flash it using recovery.

Nope. Just dirty flash it. Backing up is good, but flashing the zip doesn't clear the data.
I'm trying to restore an app's data using adb restore. A weird thing is that it works on my A12 phone but it fails on my ATV9 TV box. After restoring, ATV9's app data is reset. Why does it fail???

If it is a system app, you can't backup or restore its' data via adb without root.
If it is a user installed app, you should be able to backup and restore user app data via adb.

The same app was installed from a normal apk. I think it is the same normal user app on the both devices.
