After reinstalling apps from a backup/restore app they are working properly on the phone but dont show up under "my apps" in the market. Ive experienced this before with changing roms and was always able to fix via settings, manage apps, market, clear data. Now the clear data option isnt available. Anyone else experiencing this of have any solutions
I sure have, use titanium backup and long press the app on the list off apps and chose force link to market and you will be all set!

Actually an easier fix is, in titanium backup hit menu and choose more then market doctor, let me know if it works for you!

How can one use Titanium Backup? The phone isn't rooted yet. If there is a workaround, I'd love to know!

You can't titanium backup requires root, but you wouldn't really need to backup apps unless your flashing different roms which would require root

I know HOW to remove the bloatware from Android phones using Titanium Backup Pro, but I'm curious to know what bloatware is SAFE to remove without causing any major problems with the OS. Thoughts, ideas and suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

I took off faves, modes as well. Also amazon, setup, all themes, swype if you don't use it. I think that was about it. Make sure you do a good nandroid backup before you do it, so you can restore all of it if you need to take it back in for some reason.

Did you delete ALL your themes or did you just delete the ones you weren't using? Also deleting modes and faves didn't conflict with anything? I was kinda on the fence on these apps
Nope I used titanium backup to uninstall the stuff, I also did take off amazon as well

With Titanium backup, you don't have to uninstall, if you want to keep them in case you need them later. You can simply 'freeze' the apps. This way, you keep them, they just go out of system memory and the icons will not show up either on your Launcher.

You cannot delete system apps via Titanium Backup. You can only backup the data. You will need Root Explorer or something equivalent to delete the system app. Make sure you make a backup first though.

Ti Backup cannot backup system apps - only their data. It can, however, remove them with the 'force remove' function.
But, a major +1 for freezing them instead. It might just save your ass, and it serves the same function as deleting the app anyway.
Can someone please share the htc lockscreen app from the app folder I mistakenly deleted it and the oden file

I wouldn't remove friend stream if you plan on using facebook. What happened, was the phone was constantly looking for friendstream to "sync" but since the app was gone, it never reported back as completing syncing...so i'd always have the circle with arrows "sync" in my task bar. got so annoying.
had no problem when I froze friend stream and still use FB.
Anyone know what the my device, my account and search people is listed under in titanium?
I can't seem to find them.
Also any one have a complete list of what can you can freeze or uninstall?
So far I only freeze but here is what I have:
AppPack Asphalt com.tmobile.theme x6 demo videos Faves x2 flickr Friend Stream x2 Gallery I use 3d HTC Weather locationPicker x2 Mail x2 Email account messager x2 my Downloads Provider (No clue what it does) my modes news x2 peep quickoffice ringtone trimmer rockband screen share setup stocks x2 t-mo tv themes provider (no clue what it does) TTS Service Twitter Visual Voice Mail Voicemail Weather x2 Weather Agent and provider
Has anyone uninstalled the genius button app after remapping the button to the search function? I don't use it at all and its always running...

So typically my apps will automatically come back but this time they didnt.
I wiped before I installed MIUI, and under "My apps" it only shows the apps I paid for, not the free ones. So I lost a ton of apps and I cant remember them all.
Any ideas here?

Titanium backup would have made it easy for you. It doesn't rely on backing up with Google. Do you have sync active? If you backed them up with Google you should be able to get them back. I'm not too sure because I use tibu

Hi all. I have Barclays app installed and runs great without any issues (yes Rooted). But when I do a backup of the app so i can say eg flash a clean install of the same rom and then restore it. It no longer works? I have to call Barclays up and they have to delete my sign up info on there side so that I can do the first up again. This is the only thing stopping me getting Titanium Backup pro app as want to support the dev and use the app regularly. If anyone has any advice or a solution I would be very greatful

When you are restoring the Barclays app, don't restore the app data, just restore the app alone.
But I could download off Google play and enter details again. But I am hoping I can do a restore of the app and data to save entering the details in again

No. you can't do that. Apps like that wont accept using your old data in a way.

^^This.
Its the same with the natwest app. You cant restore backed up data for security reasons.
All I do is install the app, clear data and then launch app and set it back up, only takes a few seconds to get sms code and back in business.
Thanks for the answers and your time.

I was wondering how do multiple ROM users switch between roms so fast. It seems so slow for me to always reinstall apps, login and password, for each rom. Even using Titanium with just data is slow because you need to spend time to reload apps.
Are people just using nandroid backups to switch and taking a new nandroid when there is a ROM update?
Just wondering how you guys do it.
Thanks.
Do you have titanium pro? You can restore apps, all in a row without having to tap buttons in between each app

Titanium Backup Pro is your answer my friend. Also a lot of apps allow you to save/restore your settings. For example, I use Nova Launcher and I can save my desktop configuration, so when I switch to a new ROM, I'll first reinstall Titanium Backup and use it restore my apps in one fell swoop, and then I restore my Nova settings which restores my home screens, widgets, shortcuts, app drawer options, etc. Finally in the Messages app, I can restore my text messages.
That and I'm a big OCD nerd who enjoys starting over from scratch, so even without all these shortcuts it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to me. That's just me, though.

I had read on some threads before that the best way is to save on data on Titanium and then reinstall your app from appstore then restore data only. Is this true cause that is what I would do but still took forever to restore apps from the Play Store.
Do people run roms from nandroid backups and just update the rom when needed?

I back up both the app and the app data and I restore the app and the app data together, all using Titanium Backup. I don't touch the Play Store at all unless I'm getting a brand new app, or if I've lost/corrupted one of my backups somehow.
If a restored app gives me trouble (very rarely), then I will uninstall the app, and then restore only the app without the data.
I don't know what you mean by "run ROMs from nandroid backups." A nandroid backup is like a system restore point on your computer. Like a snapshot in time of your ROM and never changes. So after you make or restore a nandroid backup and install even one app it will be different than your backup copy.
What you are using right now is your "system ROM" or "live" ROM if you will. Nandroid backups are just checkpoints you can activate again (restore) if your system ROM breaks or you made a change you want to undo.
Some people have more than one favorite ROM. So they will install a ROM, set it up to their liking, then make a nandroid of it. Then install a different ROM, set that one up, and make a nandroid of THAT. By doing this, one can quickly jump back and forth between multiple ROMs by simply restoring the appropriate nandroid. Having a bunch of nandroids can take up a lot of space, and if you don't rename or organize your nands it could get confusing!
Hopefully this answers your question?

Is there any way to back up Google Apps data? I have 4 gmail accounts and it takes time to have to set them up each time.
System apps generally perform poorly from data restore and can actually affect the overall performance of rom. Gapps are considered system apps so I wouldn't count on restore. I've never actually tried it though
Only app I back up is my texts.... I do clean install each time.

Backup "Accounts" in Titanium Backup. It will save your accounts and passwords, then all you have to do is set up the apps again. I haven't had issues with TBP and backing up system apps yet, but I know it's not recommended.

Settings and system apps are generally not good to restore across roms. I've been using titanium for about 3 years now for user app/data and hardly have any issues.

I use system tuner pro. It has an option to restore apps and widgets to where they were on your home screens so you don't have to set it all up again. You can also back up or restore everything all at once with a 'one-click' option.

If you use similar roms you can just format the system without affecting the data. But still it is better to reinstall everything. Also use titatium backup for all your apps and my backup root for your personal stuff. I change roms allot. Doesn't take too long.

Titanium pro backs up all your accounts so u don't have to sign in with them all again. It also backs up texts, call logs, and WiFi access points.
Only thing I haven't figured out is for it to backup your home screens like some of the other apps listed.
I rooted my device using the framaroot method, and I still can't delete the at&t apps that came preinstalled. Not sure what to do next. Any advice?
Yes.
Install Titanium Backup. There is a free version. Then find the apps you want to remove, and use the Freeze feature in TiBu first for a while to make sure that there are no dependencies. It functions just like deleting the app, but you can unfreeze it if there are problems. You can also delete apps with TiBu.
Also use this to back up your applications. To make it easier, buy the full version from the developer, which has batch back up and other features. It's a pain to try to back up apps one at a time.
Of course Yes. Titanium is the best app for backup, restore, delete app
