Titanium Backup Question - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i back up all my apps with Titanium Backup (free version) if i was to format my SD Card when im copying another build onto my phone what happens then, do i just to to the Android Market,download Titanium Backup and all my apps will be there or can someone tell me how it works.
Cheers

First copy the TitaniumBackup folder from your SDcard to your PC. That's where all the backups are stored unless you've sync'd them with dropbox.
Then after you've formatted your card copy it back so Titanium can restore them.

the free version from what i can see doesn't give you the option of saving your backups to an SD card unless ive missed something?

anyone...?

Just think about it for a second. If TB doesn't save the backups to the SD then where does it save?
Anyway, do you're desired backup option, then copy the folder called 'TitaniumBackup' in your sd to your pc. Then copy the folder again to your sd after formatting or whatever.

Titanium backup, no matter what version you're using, does backup to SD. Specifically it backs up to /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/
So what you need to do is run Ti Backup batch backup of whatever you choose (userapps or system settings or both), copy /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/ to your computer, format the SD card, flash new ROM, go to market and install Ti Backup, then open it and do a batch restore. If you flashed a new ROM it's not recommended to restore system settings as they might conflict, but userapps (which consists of just apps you got from the market) should be fine.

Is it possible to convert TB to system app?

i dont think that backs up everything though.
i want it to back up to a PC or something aswell, as the SD card is what i want to format
As far as i know MyBackUp Pro creates .zip files on the sd card.
So after the backup we could transfer this .zip files to the PC and "format" the phone?

Doas Titanium also backup my contacts?
Yes. You could backup everything to sd card, copy backup folder to pc and wipe everything. Then reflash rom, copy the backup folder back to sd card and reinstall titanium. Titanium is the most complete backup you'll get on your x10 till bootloader is cracked. Another method would be the custom recovery, but i didn't try it out.

Can't you just use root explorer to copy every single system file to your SD, then copy the backup from SD to your PC....???? I would imagine it would be as easy as copying all the files/folders in your system root folder.
MyBackup sucks dogs bollocks - it's no better than the one included...
I backed up using the included one and Titanium, and did a restore from both - seemed to get everything back on as required...
For Apps backup.. you can use File Expert. It backed up all apks installed to sd card...
Contacts u can sync with Sony Ericcson. For messages i dont have an idea...

[Q] Titanium Backup

I use Titanium Backup for Backing up my Apps. I wanted to ask that if I back up the Apps which r linked to Sd card using Link2SD app would go back to SD card or would they be backed up to internal memory then?

Titanium works in its own way. It was not influenced by other application. It only back up the apps and user data. If you wanna link it to Link2sd then you should link it by yourself after you restore the apps. Cheers.

Titanium Rocks!
Link2SD can autolink. What I used to do when I restored from Titanium is force titanium to install into internal memory; then Link2SD would move them to the Ext4 partition like magic. Worked perfectly well for me, no need to move anything manually...
I now use S2E and do the same thing. Remember these scripts (A2SD, S2E, Link2SD) all trick Android in thinking /data/app/* is internal but actually they mount that location to the external SD Ext4 partition.

SD card question

Hi all. I want to format my SD card since I am going to move on to ICS. Are there any folders that I need to save? I already have a titanium backup and I will be saving my pics/video folder.

Save your Temple Run stuff. It's very sad to loose all your achievements.
If you made some backups they should be in clockworkmod folder. Save them too. But Temple Run is much more important, so don't forget it

Note 2 Titanium Backup Pro Help - Fixed

Anyone else experience Titanium Backup saving backups on their device rather than the external SD? Is there any way to change this?
See last response for the Fix.
Go to settings and change the path to extSd.

On the Backup Folder Location screen there is only a Detect Button.
I am in the process of moving the folder to my exd SD then I will hit detect again.
Fixed:
I moved the TitaniumBackup folder from my device to the SD card then opened Titanium Backup and clicked Detect.
Worked like a charm.
sd swap
Is it due to an sd swap option perhaps? I had a simular issue, solved it right away, but found it odd.
SD card and SD swap do not work how I had hoped.

Absolutely. Just as long as you change it to that location In TiBu you're good.

I went to setting but there are too many choices and I don't know what's the one that I have to take to backup everything right to the sdcard.
