Titanium Backup/Faster Restore - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have/had over 200 apps that I backed up prior to flashing using Titanium Backup. Is there anyway to restore all these apps at once via CWM/Recovery or like ADB style so I don't have to go through and click install -> done on all the apps?

buy the pro version and you don't have to do that, still takes a little while though

uninstalling system apps with titanium backup Pro

hey there..
in this topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740338
u can read about the apps u can uninstall and how...
but u can also do it via titanium backup pro cant u?
ive deleted road sync and all the other crap...
its gone... away from the phone... so why the hard way?
im a noob, so maybe there is a reason for it, people uninstall trough the command promp and gain superuser access. ive got superuser access trough my titanium backup..
for sure you can do it with Titanium backup Pro, the "problem" is that it is paid app, so not all of us can do those things by Titanium Backup..
sorry for offtopic, I do to understand why you created a separate thread for this question, you should ask directly there.. I do not think this question needs separate thread..
your right, shouldnt have needed a new topic..
and by the way...
Im using the free version of titanium backup aswell. just check it out... i uninstalled the original homescreen aswell with titanium backup (free version)
I don't really follow. Why would you want Titanium Pro? Everything worth doing (uninstalling, taking backup, scheduling backups) is available in the free version. Or am I wrong?

Titanium is awesome for removing systems apps on a rooted phone. The problem with the free version is that it won't allow you to restore the backups you've made through the Titanium app. You could still do it manually though.

Ah, that explains it. So when I'm in deep **** I have to pay to restore everything I've backed up. Smart!
Anyways, what is it Titanium backs up? Is it just the apps or also app settings?
/Daniel
Backs up apps and data, full version does it and restores in one click. Well worth it!
to increase this thread's usefulness , I suggest that you try to share the apps you got.. =D paid and free.. thanks! [im begging]
Ok I tried following Myn's suggestion of unistalling Flash and now my phone won't reboot. I try to go into recovery and it won't let me. Any thoughts?
Trying not to freak out
I have an Htc Aria im trying to do this on it but when i do via titanium backup it restarts and i get a android with a yellow caution sign. Any ideas?
Im running TB Pro and I too am getting the Android with caution on reboot. Then I check and the App is still there. On Epic 4G

backup apps with titanium?

when i install my backups from titanium, is it a MUST that everytime a new app is getting installed it asks me if it should be installed or not, and i have to click INSTALL wait... OK... then wait until it happens over and over for my 30 apps?
Can i just click install and be done with it?
if you get the paid version of titanium, you can batch restore. But if you're running free version, you have to do each app one by one manually.
If your using the free version then that's how you have to do it. The premium version has a one click restore option.

You cant restore the CM7 system apps to devoid final. You can restore the apps/games that you downloaded to the devoid final though titanium backup. Just dont restore apps like google maps/talk/ etc which comes preinstalled.
PS: hows the devoid final rom ?
That's right, Use Titanium Backup. I haven't flashed void.final yet because of all the hassle of restoring apps and data.
Firs things first... use Titanium Backup or something similar along with you nand backups. This should make restoring apps easy. Run the backup batch and then the restore batch on the new rom. I do not recommend restoring system data, it may cause faults in the system, especially when going from 2.2 to 2.3 and back.
So, man, restore the nand backup of your CM7, use Titanium Backup batch, re-flash your void.final and then restore the Titanium Backups. That should do it. This procedure is a must if you want to test custom roms, or just flash often.
Cheers!

Mate, better get used to Titanium Backup, it's a life saver if you like modding.
Word of advice: update your backups, and (this is an important one) backup (copy on HDD) your Titanium backups (you can find them on /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/)!

Yeah. Getting Pro with better scheduling (plus Dropbox sync) is worth it, IMHO. Also, the backups are much faster with Pro.

Ah, you mean SMS/MMS... Well, dunno about Titanium. I am backing them up via GO SMS Pro; never liked the stock messaging app really. It can do scheduled backups (binary/XML, full/incremental) and even send the backups to your email.
i will try SMS Backup and Restore from market. if it does not work, i'll try yours! thanks for ur time man and all of u there who shared his time answering my questions!

[Q] How do you transfer apps and data to a new phone?

Hi,
Supposedly I buy a new android phone, let's say going from Galaxy S1 to S2. How can I transfer my stuff from the old phone to the new one?
Thanks
If you're rooted on the old and new phone you can use Titanium Backup, it can backup your Wifi settings too.

Pretty sure Google Play will install your previous apps automagically.
As for the rest, you can use apps like Titanium backup and SMS backup to transfer your other stuff and whatnot.
And don't forget to move your music, photos, videos as well.
Why do you go into radioshack. They have a cellbrite machine and its free to transfer everything over from your old phone to you new one. Better yet go into radioshack and buy your new phone there.
What if i want to install the latest version from the Play store instead of restoring from a backup? I do not care for the app settings. Is there a way to do that?

How to backup Home Screen?

Hi. Is there anyway to full backup the Home Screen, including shortcuts, folders, widgets etc? I'm tired to setup it on and on everytime I install a new ROM. I've tried MyBackup Root, but it restores only wallpaper! Thanks
Don't think stock but nova launcher has backup settings. Probably no good for you though
