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.

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.

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?

no, TB will restore it regardless, but any purchased apps, will be gone from market
the purchased apps are linked to specific gmail accounts
I am getting a new phone tomorrow. Can I make backups of my apps with titanium and then just transfer the backups to my new phone, reinstall titanium and restore? I'd like to think it's a simple yes.
Sent from my Crespo using xda premium
Yes.
Use TI to make the backups, copy the backup folder to the new phone (its super easy if they both have microSD),then reinstall TI and restore apps. Be careful with system apps as they probably will not work on the new phone unless it is the same model.
Bumping this thread because I want to be exactly sure.
I want to transfer my Ti backup of all my downloaded users apps & data from my current Nexus 7 to the new one I just purchased.
So if I go to File Explorer and go to my main SDcard directory :
/storage/emulated/0/
And scroll down until I see the folder labelled
TitaniumBackup
Copy the entire folder to USB drive and then copy that entire folder over to the SDcard storage in the new tablet
Once I reinstall amd start upTi backup, it should automatically recognize my apps backup from the TitaniumBackup folder, right?

Hi. is this still possible? i want to make a back up and transfer it to a new phone. thanks
in a new phone tb will only work if its rooted??? then whats the point if warranty goes away on the 1st day
since its same topic would titanium backup be able to restore for LineageOS onto the default Samsung TouchWiz ROM on the same or different device
OK here is my problem. Im still a noobie at all this. I backed up all my files with titanium backup, wiped both my caches factory reset and flashed my ROM on my GS3. Downloaded titanium backup again and all the restore options were empty, nothing there. But my internal memory is still full and under titanium backup in my files all my apps and data is still there. Why didn't TB save my backup? Is there anyway to restore using just the files or am I pretty much f ucked? Please help thank you.

Have TB look for backup folders. It may be on your other memory location
And How exactly do I do that??
Hmm, what rom are you using? Cuz it may have changed your internal storage just a tad bit. If you're using AOSP, you might need to do this first: open Titanium Backup (TB) and go to Settings/Preferences/Backup Folder Location//Detect/Scan Whole Device.
That said:
1) open TB and choose "Backup/Restore" then "Click to edit filters"
2) select "backed up" and "uninstalled"
3) tap the check mark on the top right. You'll see your backed up apps now.
4) Tap the check mark on the top right again, scroll down to the "Restore" tab and choose "restore missing apps with data." Do not restore system data.
5) Done.

Hi-
Running xt912 with CM10.1 Rom.
Followed instructions above and all of my apps/data were not installed to the ROM. Any idea why this is (not) happening.
Missing so many apps? Any help is appreciated.

Aight, I see you're using a different phone so I do not know the file structure. Did TB restore any of your apps OR was it unable to find your backups at all? Cuz if it did not find any backups then open TB and navigate here: Menu/Preferences/Backup Folder Location/Detect/Whole device. This will force TB to scan your entire device (internal and external storage) for your TB backups. If this does not work then there likely is not a backup on the device.

Thanks! I have done all that u mentioned, and I was able to find backups. BUT, all of my apps have not restored. Am I too recreate every email account and every socia account. That sucks! What the devil is the purpose of TB?
All the forums say TB Pro is the best-does it all, well I found this and it is very upsetting:
1. Titanium Backup will restore all the apps along with their data to your device one by one. On the free version of the app, you will have to restore apps manually one after another. Just make sure that you don’t tap the open app button after restoring any of the app.
If you buy the pro version from the market, all the apps will be silently restored to your phone, and if you have tons of apps on your device, it makes it worth the purchase. THERE WAS NO SILENT INSTALL (and the backup are there and on my PC)
2. For some apps I don’t have the “Restore” button. Why ?
This is probably a system app that you don’t have anymore. System apps are part of your ROM, so Titanium Backup will only backup their data (not the apps themselves).
For this reason, if you backup a system app and then switch to a ROM where that app is missing, Titanium Backup obviously cannot restore the data for it. You have a data-only backup. Before you can restore the data you’ll need to install that system app again, either by reinstalling your ROM or by copying its apk manually into /system/app. I TRIED TO INSTALL JUST APPS/DATA. NO SYSTEM APPS.
If you had disabled the “Normal apps (apk)” and/or “Protected apps (apk)” options in the Backup settings, then all backups of your apps will be data-only, in which case you’ll need to re-install these apps manually before you can restore their data.
So, after deleting Rom from Slot1 (old Cm10 build) and adding the RC5 build, NOTHING was restored. How can this be??? Is there anyway that I can drag and drop files from my PC to the phone? Any and all ideas are appreciated.
Greetings all!! I came here from the T-mobile Galaxy S2 forums. I have a question I am needing help with. I have searched all over with no luck.
So I have TB pro, and I used it to make a update.zip of some user apps and data from my S2. Mostly just some games and oddball apps. Absolutely no system apps or anything like that. My question is can I flash that update zip to my new Oneplus one. Yes i have a custom recovery and I am rooted. Thanks in advance!!
As long as there's no system data it should be ok. But, I've seen at least one person have issues after flashing an update zip like that. It might be better just to restore your apps the normal way (through Titanium itself).
Transmitted via Bacon
Ok. Thanks for the heads up on that. Can you explain what is the normal way to get app data from one phone to another using TB pro? I am kinda confused on doing it. Thanks!
Just navigate to /sdcard/TitaniumBackup, copy all the files from that folder to the new phone in the same location.
Transmitted via Bacon
Im sorry if I seem like an idiot. But, do I copy the files to my PC first then transfer them to the Oneplus one??
That's how I do it.

depending on how much you have backed up, it might be easier to just sync between the two phones with Dropbox. Just make sure you export to /sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder on the OPO.

I used TB coming from a Nexus 5 and I don't have any issues.
I just synced with the Dropbox.
Thanks to all that responed!! I ended up flashing the update zip and so far so good. I guess im just kinda dumb about using TB to transfer from phone to phone. Thanks again!!
I recommend a lot Go Backup over titanium. It has Dropbox and Google Drive sync for "cloud backup" in addition to typical local backup. It also has batch restore and with that you will never need to restore app by app.
Sorry for my English, I am a Spaniard.

All the features that you listed has been in Titanium Backup for awhile. It has cloud backup, local backup, batch restore/backup.
Some of these features are in the Pro version but the money is definitely worth it. When a new Android version comes out, the developer updates it quite fast to have it working.
Ww thats so noob from me.
I have TB Pro from a while (since my old Gnex) and i never tought about using the backups to restore my apps on my new devices because i tought that i could have had compatibility issues (even if i dont never ever backup system data).
You never stop to learn lol.

And while titanium backup is restoring all my apps, i go into settings and set up each menu to how it was before. Multi tasking on the fly

I didnt find batch restore in TB, and a small but useful feature that Go Backup has but TB not is to backup only the data and not the apk. It is very useful when you want to backup the game data but the APK and OBB are very heavy.

This method is clearly unrelialable. As it doesn't backup my whole parameters.

You won't be disappointed. I freeze apps with icebox. Swift backs up more than just apps.
Of course, it's individual choice but I rely on OP Switch as my backup solution. I was a big fan for TB during my rooted days. With excellent Oxygen OS and OP Switch, I have no desire to root the phone anymore.
I haven't used Swift Backup app, but it might be worth the try. It's available on play store.

There aren't many apps on Oxygen OS that I consider bloatware. I use most of them. If I don't use a particular app, I simply disable it. If it still bothers me there are many guides online to debloat using adb commands.
I use paid version of AdGuard and have no issues with blocking ads. One license fee covers all 3 phones in my family.
