App to extract all downloaded apps (APKs) before flashing new ROM - Optimus One, P500, V General

Is there an app that easily does that just simple copy and paste of apks from all possible places to the sdcard
I hate how i have to copy apk's from different locations like /system/sd (ext/a2sd drive) and other places..I dont want backup (.tgz) by TItanium backup

don't know if it works, but try to search all the file using an explorer searching for *.apk and then copy them all to a folder. btw i will lose all the data if u don't save them. i think a backup with titanium or nadroid + data is better

[Q] How do you save an APK?

I just experienced an issue where everything on my phone was deleted, even my TB files. Soooo how can I save an apk so that I can just load it back on my phone later on?
The easy way to do this is simply save a copy of your Titanium Backup file to your computer. If you want to make a copy of a single app you can use Root Explorer to copy it to your sd card then save it on your computer. Apps are located in either the system/app or data/app folders.

I backed up all my Apks with super manager. Then backup on PC.

[Q] Restore APPS and Settings from Update.zip

Hi All
I am just wondering if it is possible to Restore APPS and APP Settings from a DATA.img file using an update.zip.
I extracted the contents of a DATA.img file and used the DATA and APP directories to populate the update.zip. I removed all the android and google directories and APPS.
When I apply the update.zip some of the APPS work perfectly yet others Force Close all the time.
Am I missing something, do I need to restore some other files?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Just use titanium backup to backup ur apps, than restore ur backup easily with batch operation.
Only app or app with data, choose what you want.
And its safe.

How do you remove apps from Optimus V after obtaining root using command prompt?

I have root access now by using Gingerbreak installed on my optimus sd card so now I need to find the correct procedure to removing them from my command prompt on my computer. What are the steps and then what are the commands to remove apps from my Optimus V ?
thanks in advance
I have found a more automatic way of removing the bloatware. I downloaded root explorer and moved the app files from within the system->app to my sdcard. That way if I ever want to I can move them back.
The guy above me is correct as well but E.S file explorer is a free app with no ads and does everything as root explorer and looks better while doing it.
Click menu enable root settings/mount then long click the app you want to delete
I prefer not to delete but simply "move" to sdcard so that I can bring it back if need be.
or you can use titanium backup
Before you move anything make sure they're safe to remove, as in won't affect other apps. Having a backup won't hurt too. Many apps can uninstall system apps, among them Titanium Backup, Gemini App Manager, Link2SD or file managers with root access such as Root Explorer($), Ghost Commander, ES File Explorer and File Expert.
A safer way is to freeze the bloatware using Titanium Backup Pro($) or Gemini App Manager rather than deleting. You aren't likely to be using the space in system memory anyway.
I like using the Harmonia ROM, but I have an S Screen, so I also use the Xionia Anykernel 14 with a button switcher, so it functions GREAT so far, and none of those crappy preloaded bloatware apps, but if I ever need to get back to the original OS, I can nandroid restore my backups of my old system.

Backing up phone, what is best way?

Hello, I am not a noon or anything but I have a question for a senior member. The other day I had my phone wiped trying to go from toxic rom to muiu rom. I had backed up titanium folder and clockwork backup to my computer but it didn't seem easy to get back up and some of my recent appear weren't in titanium folder although I had just backed up to computer before putting new rom on.. what is the way a more experienced person would backup to make it easiest to restore later.. thanks

once u back up your apps with titanium just go into your files and look for the folder called "titaniumBackup" go inside that folder..then just copy all its contents to a folder in your computer. then next time if a rom wipes all your data then just put the contents you copied back into titaniumbackup folder and go to titanium app and restore. simple. well that how i always do it.

[Q] System apps backup and remove

Hi Folks,
I want to backup all the system apps and remove the unnecessary apps which are running in background. Is it good to backup the system apps by copying the apk files from /system/app ?
Also is it good to remove an unwanted app from /system/app to delete a system app?

You can copy/paste them to your external storage, or the other and better way is to rename them with apk.bat in the end and thats it.

Hey I understood that removing system app may cause issues. I have tried Titanium backup tool but it stored the backup file in different extension instead of .apk
