Sorry for my wording. I backup all apps with Titanium. I wiped all data and installed a new rom. restore all apps to new rom by Titanium. Apps didn't show in the market. how can i make them show under "my app" in market so i can update?
Thanks
wait.
you make a backup AFTER you install the rom?
you are supposed to backup your apps BEFORE you install a rom, then RESTORE them after you flash new rom
am i reading this wrong?

The only way you will be able to automatically restore all your apps each
time you flash a new rom is to re-flash you current rom and do a full clean
install, after it's done flashing in CWM Recovery do not reboot until you
select "Wipe data/Factory Reset" then reboot.
After you do this and the phone is fully rebooted follow all the GOOGLE
prompts and make sure that each checkbox is checked, do not skip any
steps at all.
After you do the above and reboot your phone and go to the market
google will not only show all your apps which you had previously
downloaded and installed, but it will also start to download each
and everyone that you have downloaded prior to flashing a new
rom. (This feature only works on those apps downloaded from the market)
If you skip any steps or do not check each and every google check
mark this auto-restore feature of gmail/google will NOT work.
This process has nothing to do with Titanium Backup.
Good Luck! Hope this helped.

this is the part that so many people get confused on.
as a general rule of thumb, you should never wipe data/factory reset AFTER flashing a custom rom. just do it BEFORE you flash the rom.
if someone puts together a rom with a /data folder in it, with various pieces/add-ons for the rom, and you wipe data/factory reset, you will NOT have these added features/apps/pieces when you boot your rom.
for example, in the captivates, part of the gps fix included a .conf file in /data/gps/
we had some similar stuff in the inspire roms too.
if a dev includes a particular app that they think the people using their roms would benefit from, they stick it in /data/app

my solution to that has always been:
restore apps
reboot
goto menu/settings/manage applications/all/market
force stop
clear data
launch market and accept terms again

I'll go ahead and apologize for the length of this, I just want to provide as much information as possible.
I have a rooted Thunderbolt. My original issue was that I was having numerous restarts daily, and I would drop the mobile network all the time and thus couldn't send/receive texts or calls. I posted on AndroidForums and it was suggested to me to flash the rom and update the radio. My previous phone was a rooted incredible, but this was my very first time messing with the radio and/or rom. I did a nandroid backup and followed the guides to do both. I flashed the das bamf 2.1 rom with mr2.5 radio. Everything seemed to be ok, I didn't have any weird issues, but since I am new at this, I'm not completely sure if something went wrong or not. Here is the current problem I am now having...
I can no longer sync my google calendar, I keep getting the com.google.process.gapps force close error. And I get the com.android.phone force close error as well and will loose connection with the mobile network for a few minutes. Also I cannot get any pic messages to send/receive. And I just noticed that when someone calls me, my screen turns on, but it doesn't come up with the answer call screen it just lights up, and I can't answer the call.
I have tried searching for solutions but haven't found anything to work. I fixed permissions with rom manager, and have tried toggling sync on and off on the calendar and cleared data under manage applications with no success. Is there maybe something that I missed along the way or maybe some other solution to try that anyone can suggest? Or is there any additional information that I need to provide? Thanks!
Did you use Titanium Backup to restore apps? Also did you use ROM Manager to flash ROM or did you do it directly from Recovery? Also did you wipe before flashing the ROM?

I followed the guide on that site.... I did use titanium backup to restore the apps. I used rom manager to flash, but I did wipe before flashing (I think!). I have the new rom manager so what I did was download the zip files for the rom, move them to sd card and use rom manager's install rom from sd card, and selected backup, wipe data & cache and dalvik when prompted.

Don't flash from ROM Manager. It seems to cause problems with some phones. Flash the ROM directly from Recovery (Make sure you wipe). Also when you successfully do that and everything is working, download the latest version of Titanium Backup from the market. The Titanium Backup included in the ROM caused problems for me as well. Just to be safe, download the ROM again.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot later tonight and see if it fixes everything!
Haven't personally had any problems with RM on the Tbolt yet. Performs each function just fine. Since he said he wiped, sounds like he's restoring something from TiBu that's causing problems.
If it's lots of things with FC's:
Wipe and don't restore using TiBu. If you still get FC's then that's not the problem and you may want to reflash the rom.
If it's only a few things, you can wipe the data for those particular apps in Settings->Applications->Manage Applications
This might be off topic, but you mentioned Titanium backup. I had my first major issue with Titanium backup last night. I too am on MR2.5 and everything went fine when I flashed the ROM but after I ran Titanium backup my phone kept going to the HTC screen as if it was doing a fast boot. I ended up having to clear out all my Titanium backups and restoring my applications directly from market to get my phone back to par. I hope that helps someone.
Things that were mentioned and things to add.
*Always flash roms from CWM (Clockwork Recovery Manager) not ROM Manager
*Always do a full wipe before flashing any new ROM. That means, go into CWM, Wipe Cache Partition/ Factory reset, Wipe Data, go to advanced and select wipe davlik.
*Run the ROM for a couple minutes to test if it's running smoothly and can connect to Google market.
*If it's running well, then proceed to titanium backup.
I've flashed the task650 and phantom rom. Then installed titanium back up from the market and restored all of my apps. It then said that the android launch error has stopped or something.
What have I done wrong and how can I fix it?
Did you also let TiBu restore all your settings as well? or JUST the apps? Did you restore an app that was included in the ROM?
When switched ROM's you should only restore apps that are not on the device already. You also should be careful with all settings that you restore as well.
For me, I restore the missing apps, that I still want, with data along with accounts, BT pairings, and WiFi settings. That's it.
---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------
Oh, and to fix it, I would just hard reset your device, verify that all is running as it should, and then begin installing your apps again.
This is what I think the sequence of what I have done is.
-Obviously rooted my tablet.
-Backed it up with Rom manager and copy and pasted the back up to my PC as well as the back ups of the apps and settings from titanium.
-Downloaded and transferred the task650 and phantom rom to my tablet.
-Flashed it and deleting the cache and dalvik etc in the process.
-Followed the process of not selecting google during the factory reset and changed my wifi settings and synced google once the flash had finished.
-I then went to the market place and reinstalled titanium from their and restored the apps and data.
-It was at that point when I could not get back onto the android desktop (if thats what its called.)
Now when I click the power button I can unlock it and it brings up this box:
Sorry! The application Launcher (process.com.android.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force close or report.
If I hold the power button I see a recovery option with rom manager icon and a download option.
So to answer your question I did let TiBu restore setting as well because I am a total noob. I more than likely did restore an app that was in the rom.
I can't really see if all is running as it should because if I force close the error message it just goes blank and brings the error back up.
I haven't bricked it have I? I hope to god this is fixable.
You are not bricked. I would just follow the steps again on the Task650 and Phantom thread to re-flash the ROM, and just start over. Once you have re-flashed, then reinstall TiBu and then begin restoring only the missing apps with their corresponding data. DO NOT RESTORE any settings or any apps that are already in the ROM unless you know specifically that they are safe to restore (MOST ARE NOT).

Thanks for your help I'm back on ok after a hard reset. I think its back to the way it was before I restored apps and data off tibu.
Im already on the task and phantom rom after the reset so do I need to still reflash the rom?
I'm not really bothered about reinstalling apps, but is their any I should restore?
Would downloading an app from the market I had on the previous rom cause problems?
No, you do not need to re-flash if the hard rest took care of your problem.
The only apps to NOT restore are the ones that are already on the ROM, as that may cause a conflict. Apps that you have downloaded from the market in the past, and that are not currently in the ROM should be ok to restore with TiBu.
Again thanks you have been very helpful.

Correct. To be safe don't restore any system settings or system apps. these show green in titanium. This error if from restoring sudden data on launcher. Task snuff phantoms tom uses a different launcher from stock touchwiz.

I've just left it as it was to be safe, was not to bothered about my apps or settings anyway I'm happy to start over.
So to avoid anything going wrong in the future, do I not update my tablet?
It happened today morning, but i didn't change anything since last night, didn't install any apps or updates
At first i manage to enter in the Contacts app, but i couldn't save a new contact, i did a system reboot and after that all three apps were gone :O
now i'm using GO Contacts, but i would really like to get the stock apps back
Rooted (CF-Kernel) KI4 2.3.4
any thoughts guys?
also, in the GO Contacts app i'm unable to save a new contact

Hmm ... really strange.
Maybe a problem with your Google account.
But disappearing system apps ... ?!
If you have got a recent system backup, then recover it.
If not, I recommend to re-install a stock ROM (flashing with Odin).
Do a hard reset after flashing.
Root your phone (e.g. flashing CF-Root kernel).
This should bring back the missing system apps.
Good luck !
Whit a hard reset, you mean a factory reset, right?
And no, no backups
there is no way to reinstall those apps?

Hard reset: Dial *2767*3855# into your phone.
This will wipe internal SD card!
EDIT:
Please do a full system backup in future!
I backup my apps with Titanium Backup (free app from the Market) and make a system backup with CWM Manager app (which is included in my CF-Root kernel).
i'll be sure to do that next time, i wanted to do a Nandroid backup after rooting, but i kept delaying it... until it was too late
i guess i can backup my user apps now with Titanium, or should i just start from blank with a stock rom?
flashing the stock rom will also bring back the stock kernel?

Yes, the ROM contains kernel, modem and CSC.
You can restore all user apps you have saved with Titanium Backup.
Do not restore any system app.
Just to be safe.

Hi,
So i'm planning to stick with the Apex Launcher and have reorganized how I want it to look and so forth. My question is, when I do a flash for a newer version of a custom Rom, say for example Omega series, what do I choose in Titanium so that it backups up my current Apex Launcher settings as well as all my games with their saved data, bookmarks, and any purcahsed apps? Thanks
Backup all apps + system data but..
Restore Missing apps + data. dont do restore all system apps if you move to another firmware/custom rom

I see. Also, before I update to a new version of any custom rom, I usual;y do a factory wipe reset in CWM, clear cache, and clear dalvik. By doing that, would it somehow affect the backup in titanium if I were to do one?

Move your existing backup manually first
Set it before you backup again. Preferences, backup folder location, detect, whole device.
You'll pretty much lose your home screens. You shouldn't need to wipe between versions of the same rom

You will not lose your home screen if you're using other launchers it will be backup-ed like any other app, been wiping and restoring thru TB and my Nova Launcher home screens are still intact from which i backup-ed.

I just have 11 apps that I have downloaded, is there a quicker way of doing it instead of selecting each one by one? Wouldnt choosing "Backup all user apps" mean EVERY app currently on my phone including the ones that I personally didn't download?

Well if any problems occur after flashing, then you need to do a full wipe that's way you need to back-up all apps

Why wouldn't you back-up all? in worst case scenario it would be very useful plus you have options in restoring to not restore all apps so I think that would be fine.
If your worried about the size of the back-ups don't worry it will not go even close to 500mb, as you said you have only 11 apps at the moment :good:

Ok thanks again!
Also, what happens if I do a user apps + data backup in titanium and decide to upgrade to another version for example, omega 6.0 to omega 7.0, will there be a conflict with the data portion of the restore because the developer might have changed something once I do a restore with "missing apps + data " in the 7.0 version?
Hi there!
Using SGS 2, Rootet, CWM-based Recovery 6.0.3.1, AOKP-Rom patched with OpenPDroid
I was experiencing some Battery Drain and found an app that was using CPU all time.
Used Titanium Backup to freeze that app.
The app was "Einstellungsspeicher" (Guess something like "Settingsstore" in English) and it was NOT marked as system-app. But still i haven't installed it manually.
Unfortunately the system wasnt able to boot afterwards.
Id like to keep my data, so a factory reset is not the first choice, but the last resort.
Is there anything i can do to unfreeze/defrost the app?
[Q] Can i just flash the patched AOKP-Rom again and the system-apps will be restored (and the normal apps will still be installed)?
[Q] Is there a recovery-zip i can install to defrost all apps that are frosted?
[Q] Can i defrost it manually?
[Q] When i made a backup with CWM after i freezed that app, can i install the rom, then recover the "normal apps" by doing a advanced restore? what would i have to restore in order to not restore the frost-state?
What kind of data u want to save?
I think u should check ur choosen ROM for auto wipe during install feature.
Look the thread and name the ROM btw
If its non autowipe u should just flash it again from recovery without any wipes. all the user apps will remain

Thanks for that. I flashed it again, but the system still wont boot up. At least i got my boot animation back, so i guess the system-settings have been reverted already. (I disabled that animation in the settings before)
Since it still wont boot, I guess the question is still how i could possibly defrost the app from CWM.
The flashed rom was http: -- aokp.co - devices - i9100 Milestone 1 (2013-04-16)
I want to keep the app-data i stored since the last backup (which was when i installed the rom last time, a few weeks back).
If i could backup that data for certain apps now, i could make a factory reset.
