Before i install a new ROM, if I factory data reset or wipe data and cache n everything from the recovery screen, will I still have Titanium Backup so i can restore my apps?

Nope, but if you bought it from the market you can redownload it without having to pay again. Just keep in mind doing a full wipe can wipe your backup folder too. Best to sync it to dropbox through titanium backup or back it up to a pc or external sdcard.

Is that the right thing to do if your going from 1 rom to another? I just don't want old files and data taking up memory/space
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA App
Yes its the right thing to do its what everyone that uses it does

cool thanks, I moved the backup folder to my external sd, that fixes that right? Now i can just wipe everything rite? Btw after I'm done and restoring in TiBu can i goto batch, restore all apps + system data? Or will the system data mess with the custom rom?

As long as you don't wipe external card you'll be ok. I'd remove it from the card just to be sure. Don't want to risk losing everything.
Usually you won't restore system data. The only time you'd do that is if you're reflashing the exact same rom. You'll only want to batch restore all apps and data.
Should be all good to go.

Indeed. I recommend keeping up on everything entropy512 is doing. Hands down he's helping this phone out the most.

Now that the GPS fix has come into play, I have been thinking of going into 2.3land again. My question is: I do not want to lose my saved game data [esp black pegasus] by upgrading to ginger. Other than TB, how can I backup and restore apps and data without screwing up the rom?

that's the problem. You can still install them on a 2.3 rom but the data saved from 2.2 isnt compatable and bugs it up...........
I think?

I've never experienced this with any of my apps. For example Angrybirds. For most /data/app it should be fine. Just becareful of anything that is system related (ie dialer, settings, etc).
yah listen to binary
All gameloft games save your data to the internal sd card, that way if you upgrade all you need to do is install the game again. However, it will tell you to download data, it is only 3 mb. But all your data will stay the same.
So dont restore as a batch, take the time to pick em off my sd individually and I wont have the same problems?

Use filter.
I went to 2.3.4 and restored batch app+data,no problem. I only use it to restore my games though. Black pegasus and a few others. What I always do is download the newest titanium off the market before any restores/backups. I have never had any problems with apps+data doing it this way

Can I just install apps+data through TitaniumBackup that I had on my Captivate and install them on the GS2?
I did. Rooted then restored apps with data. Stay away from system restore.

Hi
Do you need to full wipe data if you are are on stable CM7 to go the nightlies, because my mate is on stable he wants to go to the nightly but he didn't save his contacts on google account, he saved on phone. Can someone suggest me a program how to make a nice backup for contacts.
Thanks

You can move from stable to nightlys without a wipe in theory, make sure to take backups.

Nandroid for the whole system, titanium backup for system/user apps and data.
Sms backup+ for sms and call log (syncs to gmail account, other programs may sync locally).
You can export contacts to sdcard (I think).

I would be surprised if this wasn't already created but has anyone thought of a App that would work with google plays application list to install multiple apps at once? I think this would be Genius especially for those that fresh install a ROM every 3-4 updates. I find myself spending about an hour just installing all of my applications again.
I use titanium backup for that

Does it backup the data to the SD card? Because if you wipe everything on the phone, essentilay the app data from titanium would get removed as well and then your screwed again ahhaa

I prefer ROM Toolbox(i use paid pro version) over Titanium Backup.
Hello there,
I flashed Jellybean firmware using Mobile Odin and the phone works ok, apart from not letting me access App info properly. It shows size, cache, data, as "computing" then closes to home screen. Any help on what the issue could be?
I've cleared data /factory reset the phone. It showed correctly, but when I restore apps using Titanium or uninstall/install apps regularly, it messes up.
Thanks in advance

Update:
Going into recovery and clearing cache partition or dalviche cache didn't fix the issue,
I uninstalled apps using Titanium Backup, then restored them about 10 at a time, only with a few I restored the app data with, rest just the app. It messed up once, I uninstalled a few apps, then reinstalled them again same way
Was working fine after this
However, I downloaded a few apps of Play Store. Same problem started again
And help
I have about 7GB internal memory left on the 16gb model

Also don't know if this is relevant, but when I used to restore Nandroid backups, it always messed up on restoring data.
Boot, system, etc restored ok
