I had a stock unlocked Streak 2.2 baseband 315.
I backed up my apps and data with Titanium Backup and ran the update from Dell for 2.2 baseband 318. It completed properly (my screen now shows 318 installed).
Imagine my surprise when all my apps and data were still on the Streak and working properly. I had expected to have to restore everything.
Did Titanium do this without any input on my part? I can't find anything on their website about this?
If you downloaded and updated directly to your phone and did not go into recovery to install then you should not lose you apps and settings.

I tried searching for an answer but couldn't find anything.
When i go to the downloads section in my market only apps i have recently downloaded or paid for appear. Not all the apps i have on my phone.
I recently softbricked my phone going from bionix 4.2 with the ul kernel to bionix v5 beta. I was also one of the unlucky few who had my internal sd wiped when i flashed 4.2 with the UL Kernel. I odined back to JFD and then flashed Bionix 5. I logged in to my google account before and opened the market before i restored any apps from titanium backup. I have tried clearing the cache from the market, tried clearing all data and cache from phone through clockwork, and tried flashing back to 4.2 stock kernel.
It doesnt even recognize apps that came installed like gmail or maps or youtube. only apps i downloaded or have purchased. Does anyone know what could be wrong or what i could do to get the market to recognize my apps?
Downloads, by definition, only contains your downloaded apps. The pre-installed apps don't reside there, unless they've been updated....

Well yes I understand this, but every other rom I have used before the soft brick, would show all of the apps that I restored with titanium backup as downloaded in the market.

Apps can be backed up with titanium backup. Just make sure it's backing up to the external card, not internal.
New updates shouldn't wipe the phone if it's only the newer version of the same build. Just load the zip on to the external card and run the recovery app to load it
But sometimes you have to wipe everything to get a new rom.

Titanium Backup works perfectly. It backsup everything from settings to homescreens to apps. As long as your phone has enough space to store the backup (or large enough sd card) you can store your backup files from the phone to the computer. Then update. Reinstall Titianum Backup from market. Copy the backup files back to your phone, and restore using TB

i know that, i have titanium backup, but you didnt answer my question....
i will need to wipe everything, use RSDLite to install 4.1.27 (i think it was) and then restore all the apps and then update the phone to the newest release and then put gladatrix again???
or just update the phone without wiping everything and restored to factory and it will work?
I didn't have to go back to .26. I just ran rsd with the .83 download, re rooted, and reflashed

Hi all,
So, I gave this HTC Aria to my girlfriend with Liberated 2.1 installed. She ran into some troubles, why I asked her to install the new liberated 2.2 version from this forum. I backed up the phone with nandroid. I told her how to wipe and install the new software over the phone.
Now she started it and all the apps, texts and documents are gone.
What can I do to get it back on an easy way? Restoring only the DATA-part of the backup from nandroid didn't work. Will a full restore get her back to 2.1 or will it implement here data and apps into 2.2?
Is reinstalling the 2.1 ROM and restoring afterwards a possibility to get her back to status quo?
Thanks so much in advance!
restore her backup which will take her back to 2.1 with all her data. Go to app market and download my backup root. Pick what you want to back up. Then delete cache and data and install 2.2. Go download my backup root and click restore. Now restore your data and most of the data will be there after the phone reboot besides the android settings, sometimes clock alarms, and bookmarks.
Signatures are fancy.
Wow, sounds great!
Thank you very much!!!
No problem

Ok, problem solved, which should've been asked in the Q&A thread by the way.

Did you log into your google account? If so and you open the market and they don't automatically download...
Did you make a backup of all your apps before you flashed BAMF (titanium backup)? If not...
Did you make a backup of your nand (nandroid) before flashing BAMF?
If not, unfortunately you will have to redownload all of them again.
I haven't updated my phone in a while. I don't get the over the air updates anymore. I saw the new update and thought it was time.. My phone is rooted and I'm running G900tuvu1ane6 and want to update to 6.1 and then root the phone again. Can you let me know if I can do a straight update without messing anything up or do I need to do an incremental update? Also, what is the best way to root the new version. Are there any issues with mm that I should be aware of. Thanks in advance.

No. You can go straight to 6.0.x
Flash twrp flash supersu
Not really. There's been a crap load fixed/improved since KitKat tho lol
Hi!
Yes, you can
You can by using ODIN
Go to sammobile to download the last MM version
Download ODIN (sammobile has a link to ODIN)
The phone will be swiped. You'll lost all data
Fisrt boot can take 8 minutes or more
The root again
So I'm running a backup now with twrp. If my phone gets wiped with this update, what is the best way to save and restore settings like app data and personal info. I think twrp is just for a full backup and restore correct?

You can restore just data with twrp but honestly I highly suggest just starting fresh especially going from KitKat to marshmallow. So much has changed betwen the 2 from dalvik to art, file structure, etc etc. Back up your contacts and just restore them. Download all your apps back log in etc etc. Take you 10 minutes longer and starting completely fresh and clean.

I'm agree
There are a lot of changes from KK to MM.
you can use google backup and restore mechanism to restore some kind of configuration: when you are running first wizard google ask: "restore from previous phone"?
This restores desktop confiig and install your apps you installed from play store
Whatsapp restore automatically from last backup
Call log and SMS can be backup and restore with "SMS backup and restore"

I followed instructions I found in another thread but it didn't wipe the phone completely. Not sure what I did wrong but the phone seems to be working well with the existing apps.

Odin doesn't touch data by its default settings so did nothing wrong
I was trying to remove bloatware and I've been finding threads for other phone's firmware but they have different apps. I've seen some apps that remove bloatware automatically but don't know if I should use one of them or just uninstall apps through titanium backup. If I use titanium have you guys seen a good list for the newest firmware?

Helloooo
I have a galaxy s5 900T, but I am in Europe and I have problems with the mobile network.
Individual network frequencies are unavailable, so I do not have 3G and 4G networks in some places.
I'm thinking to install software from Europe version of s5 900f on my s5 909T but I am not sure is that possible.
Can someone explain to me whether it is possible or why not. For example, CyanogenMod is the same ROM for both models (900F and 900T, and mire else s5 with Qualcomm procesor.
