You cant restore the CM7 system apps to devoid final. You can restore the apps/games that you downloaded to the devoid final though titanium backup. Just dont restore apps like google maps/talk/ etc which comes preinstalled.
PS: hows the devoid final rom ?
That's right, Use Titanium Backup. I haven't flashed void.final yet because of all the hassle of restoring apps and data.
Firs things first... use Titanium Backup or something similar along with you nand backups. This should make restoring apps easy. Run the backup batch and then the restore batch on the new rom. I do not recommend restoring system data, it may cause faults in the system, especially when going from 2.2 to 2.3 and back.
So, man, restore the nand backup of your CM7, use Titanium Backup batch, re-flash your void.final and then restore the Titanium Backups. That should do it. This procedure is a must if you want to test custom roms, or just flash often.
Cheers!

Mate, better get used to Titanium Backup, it's a life saver if you like modding.
Word of advice: update your backups, and (this is an important one) backup (copy on HDD) your Titanium backups (you can find them on /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/)!

Yeah. Getting Pro with better scheduling (plus Dropbox sync) is worth it, IMHO. Also, the backups are much faster with Pro.

Ah, you mean SMS/MMS... Well, dunno about Titanium. I am backing them up via GO SMS Pro; never liked the stock messaging app really. It can do scheduled backups (binary/XML, full/incremental) and even send the backups to your email.
i will try SMS Backup and Restore from market. if it does not work, i'll try yours! thanks for ur time man and all of u there who shared his time answering my questions!
If I install a custom rom and then want to restore my apps and programs from my backup I made of my stock vibrant, can I just restore the data file from clockworks backup?.... or would that mess up my rom?

clockwork backs up your rom so if you restore that it'll just restore whatever rom you did the back up on
you need to use titanium backup or a similar app to backup and restore apps

ok but clockwork has an advanced restore which will let you restore just you data. I didn't know if I could just restore that data to a new rom?

never tried it, its just easier to use titanium backup
and doing it that way i dont know if it restores all apps and data, depending what rom you're on system data cant be restored or you'll get FCs

You could restore this way, but you very well could have a lot of bugs and issues from this.

Okay, so I've switched from .62 to MIUI and now I can't install SE Backup & Restore, which is stupid, considering the PC Companion still recognizes my phone as an MT15. I succeeded in installing one version for the X10 (found here on xda), but it doesn't do jack, it sees my backups but doesn't want to restore them (when I select one, it just goes right back to the backups list).
So, is there any way to install the original one? Unknown sources is ticked, btw. I've tried everything, downloading from 3 or 4 sources, installing to internal as well as SD Card, nothing works. I couldn't care less about the apps or the messages, but I really need the contacts.
Anyone know what could be wrong here or if there's another app to open sbf files?
I hope you took a backup with cwm.If yes restore it back and backup your contacts to memory card.Or use app like mybackup pro
If you didn't took a backup with cwm,then flash back to stock rom and restore backups you made with SE backup & restore.Then take a backup with my backup pro and move back to miui I guess.I am not sure app my backup pro works on miui or not tho.
Well, that sucks.
I was kind of hoping there was some sort of workaround for this issue. Isn't there any way to open that file? Had I known it was such a piece of junk, I would've backed up using different apps. I really don't want to flash the old rom since I just installed this one...
Thanks for the reply though

Well flashing back the old rom for 10 mins is nothing that hard,so do it I guess.btw what is this SE backup and restore(got no idea what is this tbh) ? Also MyBackup pro didn't worked with Achitjan semc debrand rom for me,so you should use something that works in miui to backup and restore I guess.
same problem here anyone has the solution

try restoring the backup via titanium backup by selecting
batch restore->restore apps with data->deselect all-> find the app by name you want to restore data -> run the restore
and you should be back to your lost memos
i think that should help .
if not tell me about your phone firmware and build and the cm you are running

I've had some lost notes as well. My cwm backup file wasn't corrupted, but I still thought it was a lot of effort for a list/note or three to cwm restore twice. My conclusion was that it sadly was the only way to get them back. Restoring an app (through titanium) like notes will only work if you're on the same rom. So it should work on your s2 with a factory reset only. My guess is you should fix your titanium backup if it's not restoring properly.
I tried to look into the titanium backup files of my note app with no success but maybe you're better than me.
Its my battery problem it is spoiled sometime when I use camera phone restarts..
You gave the right solution Thank you for your time
cheers

you can maybe check the battery replacement options or maybe try a different rom as some of the rom have a bug that causes the phone to restart or go in a boot loop when any app is launched
also u can get your kernel settings checked cause they might not be compatible with the rom
battery replacement is recommended only if its run out of its recharge cycles
happy that i could be of help to you

Hi guys,
I wanted to flash a new ROM. So before doing that I took a full nandroid backup. I clean installed the ROM. The ROM was buggy so I restored the backup. But after restoring the backup, my SMS were missing. Also the apps present in my SD card(adopted) were not seen. But my phone does detect the SD card properly. Is there anyway in which I can get them back?
Thanks in advance!
