Hello all.
I had Litening ROM 4.2 installed on my SGS2, then I wanted to try Cyanogen Mod, and first made backup with CWM. Now when I try to restore backup, it restores it, but when I boot phone, everything is messed up, apps that I installed dont work, etc... It even shows me that first-time screen, to set up connections, time etc. Can anyone give me some hints what am I doing wrong please ? Thanks.
I even tried to install Litening ROM from scratch, deleted cache & davlik cache, and installed it with Odin, but when I try to install any application, after install it works fine for couple seconds then it shows me error and that "force close" dialog... And it happens with every app I try to install.
I have also tried to install Frankesteins Stock ROM that I found here, then install Litening ROM, but got same errors again...
Same problem here. After a restore, I get the first time screen. No apps, no data, default settings. Please help!
This just happened to me as well.....
Version of can? There's deffo something odd with some of the cwm versions going about. Also I notice that v5 doesn't like yo restore v4 backups. And vice versa

Backup created with ver 4.x.
Both ver 5.x & 4.x failed to restore system data. Tried installing ROM and wiping everything, reflashing CWM, but still the same problem.....
CWM4 and CWM5 use different formats for the backups. That's why backups of those are not interchangable, you have to restore with the CWM you made the backup with.
Also, don't change the dir names of the backups, I did it once and the backup woudln't restore anymore, changed name back to original one and it worked again.
The OP also sounds like only the /system partition was restored for some reason.
Try a clean format of /system, /data and /cache before the restore.
Were apps installed to sdcard?
Just to be sure, you can try advanced restore, and restore *.img one by one.
Just posting to point out that it seems to have affected me too. I made a backup, but restoring just restores the ROM without my data.

thanx man thats my problem
CWM is great for restoring the actual rom. But I have found with a large app load (I have 3-400 at any given point) it struggles.
Reconfiguring is common place, personally I use CWM for roms and titanium for apps these days.
You can coax CWM by restoring bits at a time rebooting then doing the next piece.

Help,
Found similar topics but no real solution.
Was on Wolf v6s. Backed up all my apps. Went back to stock with SEUS, installed titanium restore and choose batch.
All my apps are greyed out! I can't manually restore them. it just says: What would you like to do? and no buttons to click. They are stored on SD/titaniumbackup
No problems restoring my messages, wifi connections, ...
Please don't tell me that it's lost cause I really need them.
What titanium version do you have? Pro or root? If you have pro can you try root.
If thats not working then go
Settings>Applications>Titanium Backup>and select clear data or cache
If thats still not working, uninstall then install again.

I just have root. Clear cache didn't do anything cause I had to reinstall titanium after full wipe.
Reinstalling also didn't do a thing, cause i just installed it after wipe.
I'm still hoping
Use root explorer or astro file manager. Go to sd files, open titanium folder, and either install from there or cut and paste to data/apps then reboot.

I'm getting a really weird error and I can't figure out how to fix it.
----------------------------------------
The application Google Search (process com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Anyone have any ideas?
sounds like you either had a bad flash, or you restored system data with titanium backup.
back up the stuff you need, go into cwm recovery, and do a wipe data/factory reset. you will have to set everything up again, but this should take care of your force closes.
if you continue to get force closes, then try to re-flash the ROM you are on (after wiping data/factory resetting).
Is there any way to fix this without re-flashing? I spent a ton of time tweaking everything to get what I wanted and would have to re-do everything.
you could try settings > applications > manage applications > all > google search > clear data
i'm far from 100% positive that google search is the process that is force closing... and even if that is the correct process, i'm not sure that this will permanently solve your problem, but i think it is worth a shot. i think this will clear all of the data from your google search widget, which i assume is what you are trying to use when you get the error.
let me know if it works!
Thanks for the suggestion. I gave it a try, but still no luck. Any other ideas?
When are you getting the error, are you using the Google search widget?
Did you try backing up and wiping cache/factory reset as other user suggested? When restoring with TuBu restore MISSING apps only.

I only get the error when I try using the Google Search function - either with a homescreen widget, or by pressing the hardware search key on the device.
So, what you're suggesting is that I back up my current rom/settings using Titanium Backup, wipe cache / factory reset with CWM, then restore the backup using Titanium, but for missing apps?
That would give me my current setup, but with any missing system apps?
Fix Permissions and wipe cache/dalvik (both in CWM) - if those fail, time to wipe data and restore your apps in TiBu.
Thanks for your suggestion, Entropy. I reset permissions and wiped both caches, but still have the same issue.
I think what is causing this is that I deleted the system app "ApplicationsProvider.apk", which appears to be related to the Google Search app. I previously tried to restore the file manually using Root Explorer and my original backup and I don't think it fully restored.
Could I use Titanium to restore this file if I've never made a backup with Titanium?
If you never backed it up, then you can't restore it. You could do a google search for the .apk, or else you can see if someone on these forums will pull theirs off of their phone and upload it for you. But you're really better off wiping and starting over at this point.
I have that apk from my original CWM backup before I loaded Cyanogen. I tried to restore using Root Explorer, but it doesn't seem like it "took".
It shows up in my system applications area in SystemApp Remover. But, when I try to delete it again using the program I get an error: "Application not found. The application was not found in the list of installed applications."
Any ideas?
Hi
Tried to find a similar thread but failed so I ask here.
I have a 10.1 Wifii & 3G
Did a full backup with Rom manager before doing anything.
Upgraded to overcome ROM 2.
Realized that there was no Swedish language in the ROM, so I decided to go back to the backed up ROM instead.
When I choose Restore in the Rom manager menu, my restore is there and it looks like it is working. It reboots, it checks the files, applies all img and other files, BUT. When it's done it just sits there on the Overcome CwM Recover v5.1.2.6. It feels like it never gets done? I also tried to do a restore from inside the nandroid menu but same thing. I also tried to wipe several time, but same thing. If I try to reboot the 10.1, it gets stuck on the splash screen.
SO, my question.
I really want to keep my data on the sdcard...
Scared of doing the restock on teamovercome homepage because it says
-"IT WILL ALSO WIPE OUT YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE!"
Is there any tips anyone can give me. Is this because my old ROM had different(older) boot files or something?
Please help

Try installing CWM 4.0.0.4 using Odin and restore the backup and see if it works.
A small advice: Don't use ROM Manager for creating backups and restoring. Always do from the CWM directly. ROM Manager usually messes up the things

I already had that version, but i tried to downgrade but same issue.
Can one extract data from the backup, example favorities and manually add them ? If so wich img file is that and how do i open them?

You can use the paid version of Titanium Backup.
It can restore individual apps+data from CWM backups
Been having some issues with my SGS3 and charging, using JellyBam (v7, fairly old, so thought I would start fresh on latest version).
Using CWM5, I did a backup. Factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache, then flashed the new ROM. Figured out what I needed to for the charging issues, but forgot I didn't to a titanium backup with all my apps, and more importantly the app data.
I can confirm looking in the CWM data.ext4.tar that the data I want is in there.
So I backed up my new flash setup, restored the previous backup, thinking I would do a titanium backup and get everything setup in my newly flashed ROM. After restore (I did another factory reset + cache + dalvik wipe first), it presents me with the google login wizard, and it seems to have remembered some of my apps but not others. So the restore seems to not have worked.
If I try reinstalling the app it gives me the 'Unknown error code during application install: "-24"' error
Any ideas how I can get the restore to work correctly?
OR some way from the fresh install (providing that restore works too) to grab the app data from my data.ext4.tar and move it into my working install? I tried just copying the file into /data/data but that didnt seem to do the trick
Old CWM
Flash the firmware you made a cwm backup of restore via CWM .
Flash Philz recovery and make a new backup .
Now get 'error while restoring /data'. Seems to be an issue on CWM5 for >2GB backups.
Going to try flashing Philz recovery and try again
Nope no joy. Is there any way I can extract data from a nandroid backup?
As I'm only really fussed about a handful of apps so could do it manually

maybe there is the way, but is better if you make a update of your CWM,... 6.0.3 or 0.4 touch... by the way I always use two mores apps for backing up data from my SIII ... one for sms, contacts ecc.. to extSDcard "Super backup pro" and the other app for backup data apps "Ultimate backup pro"
