Really? Most of my apps are stored in my sd card. And I can back them up just fine using titanium backup.

This appliable only in case when you are taking backup as in copy /data/app you also need to take backup of app apeksha from sdcard also that's why we have backup software's.

Hi I was thinking of buying titanium backup pro but I was thinking.. don't you lose it once you flash a new rom?
Also when I want to flash a new rom can I just flashover the other one with clockwork ? Im new
No you just download it again from the market after you log into gmail

Thanks but how exactly? Because I flashed yesterday, logged back into my gmail. And no apparently were in downloads

Search for Titanium, and redownload. You can always redownload purchased apps after flashing or even uninstalling them, as long as you're signed in with the same Google account. You can also make an update.zip file within Titanium that will let you flash it back in to make restores quicker when you flash a new ROM.
Or you can do what i do which is anything that I purchase, make sure you save the .apk file not only on your phone but back it up to your desktop. That way you can reinstall Titanium immediately after flashing your new rom.
Okay thanks guys, but im kinda a noon soon how might I make the update.zip or save the apk to.my desktop if titanium the app itself is saved to the phone not the sd card?

If you have a rom saved to your desktop that already has Titanium then all you have to do is unzip and find the apk in there. I think its usually under /system/apps and /data/apps. Or...
You can use ADB. If you know the name of your app, this is the command:
adb pull system/app/titanium.apk c:\dir
Or to get a list of apps installed to phone:
adb remount
adb shell
cd system/app
ls
list the apps installed to the sd card:
adb remount
adb shell
su
cd data/app
ls
Titanium is different than any other paid app (at least this is how it used to work when I bought it.)
When I bought it, the author provided a text file that you placed in the root of you SD card that unlocked the pro version. That way, I just have to make sure that file's in my root dir and I can just download the free one from the Market (or install the APK) whenever I change ROMs. I don't have to worry about the potential that the Pro version doesn't show in the Market.
Does it not work like that anymore?
That version still exists, but you can also now buy it in the market.

That's good. I'd encourage anyone to use that method of purchase, if still possible.
That way, you're automatically upgraded to the Pro version, even if a dev provides the free one in a ROM, by installing from a backup APK, or just downloading the free one from the Market.
Noobish concern, really. And I couldn't make heads or tails from similarly-named threads.
So what I did is I copied some system apps to a folder on my sd. Thereafter I deleted both apk and odex files from the system/app folder hoping that copying them back will be just as easy.
Earlier today I tried copying the MoviePlayer apk and odex back. While it did copy, no amount of rebooting or cache clearing made it return to my apps list. I tried installing it by just running the apk from the sd but it had a permission issue.
Help on this? I might have other system apps to restore later like the music and messaging apps.
Next time you back up an app, use titanium backup. As for restoring it, you may have to download root explorer. Launch it then navigate to /system/app/ then click mount as r/w then paste the .apk & .odex files.

Titanium may back up a system app, but when you remove it, you can't restore it. God knows, I tried. Instead of the smiley it's just a check and there's no option to restore. Unless I'm doing something wrong here.
I already tried copying the. apk/.odex back in r/w mode using root explorer. That's the first thing I did.
Luckily I did the same thing like you before. You may have to download and flash (SAPPS.zip) or (Custom ROM)- this one I did.

Also, forget stock movie & music player, just use Doubletwist. It's a music and video player with an awesome UI.

I'll try SAPPS. Actually, maybe it's time for me to try a custom rom. de/void has been catching my attention recently.
The only reason why I started with the stock movie player is because I know that's expendable... just wanted to know how hard/easy it would be to put stock apps back.
And yes, I'll give doubletwist a try. Thanks!

The latest version of titanium backup can backup and restore system apps. Its working for me. Restored the think office app and is working perfectly

Hey guys,
I used to have a symbian, Nokia 5800 which have a very cool application batch installer, basically after wiping the SD card and place all my apps in a folder then run this app, it would install the apps one by one automatically so i won't do it manually (hence avoid doing it over 39 times or so), this was a time saver for me, is there any application for Android that would do this, just configure and have it install all apps either to the phone or the sdcard, this would be something that can lower the restoration of apps after a customer install or adding a whole bunch of new download via PC apps and games.
Thanks in advance for the help.

You could use titanium backup, backup all your app and then restore it...
Sent from my Shakira using XDA App
Can I also do this with Xrecovery, or only Titanium does the trick? and if so, would the apps all run back from my SD card once i do this or it would be diferent? thanks for your response dsaklein
You can create flashable zip with all your apps and then flash it with CWM or xRecovery.
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
i dont think that they would be different bacause you are doing backup so they must stay the same.....but like Godra says you can do it with xrecovery search forum for it
You can use FlashTool

I think the create my flashable zip file sounds good, should I just zip all files or is there a way to do that too?
also silentw can you elaborate on how do I use the flash tool? I want to do an autoinstall batch rather than something manual!
You can do a batch install/uninstall with titanium backup
I've just reflashed a new build of this custom ROM I'm using (Super Nexus to be precise) now I've done this before and the restore went fine but now I'm having trouble.
For whatever reason Titanium Backup can't find the apps to restore.. or anything for that matter. I have copied a folder containing all the apps that I backed up on both internal & external SD.
Can anybody help me out? it's annoying me now
Go to preferences and look for backup location.

just move it FIRST to internal memory, and if you are rooted, just copy it (the app should be in data/app)

If you are not rooted, then you should root.
If you are rooted, then using a root browser (you can use es file explorer) go to data/app an you will find your app there. Now copy it to your sd card or somewhere so you can use it
Simply Use myappsharer from market

On the root of the phone (in root explorer) go into mnt, and then asec. Then find the folder, open it and the apk is there. If not, move the app to the SD card in settings then try.

I dont think he should be rooted to copy anything FROM internal memory. Root is only required to copy TO internal memory.
False.
If you just want to look at your internal memory with all the system folders, you need root. Without root you can't even view that folder
Yes you are correct. My mistake
Use "App backup and restore" app to backup the required app and then share it....

You guys... I don't think its allowed to discuss about transferring paid apks (warez) on xda. :sly:
Correct me if I am wrong.
Simply buy it. Warez is not tolerated on XDA and shouldn't be discussed.
