To back up my apps I use the software that comes preloaded on the device then transfer the backup file to my dropbox account

Can you expand on that? Are you talking about ASUS MyCloud thing?

Will that work for selectively restoring data or some apps and data to the prime?

Ahh, just noticed that. Awesome. Haven't been playing around with too many of the stock apps in the app drawer.
The app is called appbackup it was preloaded on the device it displays ask your apps in a list then you just select the ones you want and back them up I then take the backup file which you can get from using a file manager and going to Asus/backup and transfer it to my dropbox or any other cloud storage app to make sure I never lose the file

Here is some software that you might consider
"MyBackup Pro will work on all Android mobile devices, regardless if they have root access or not."
MyBackup Pro - $2.99

Does the prime come with the same program for restore or are you saying it backs them up intact so that you can move them with ADB. Also been so long with root can we adb push without being rooted? Lastly do we need to reset permissions in the data directory

The app let's you restore the apps just as easy as backing it up just press a button and it restores the app

trying to transfer my apps from my captivate over to my atrix
(app+app data)
I copied over my TitaniumBackup folder from my PC to my atrix
but my titanium backup can't seem to "see" the folder or the old apps.....is there a fix or am I doing something wrong?
thanks
bump my thread
Maybe you should check the direction of the folder where you have backupped your Apps.

Check to make sure that your Titanium Backup folder is in the same location that you had with your Captivate. This was a problem for me in the past.

^yup
same location
SD card
just to make sure, I tried backuping fruitninja THD that I installed on my atrix
it went into the titaniumbackup folder that I put on the internal sd/storage but it doesn't detect my other app backups

Hmm, you could try creating a new backup folder in TB and then moving the old backups over.

fiddled around with preferences.....now it seems to work now
thanks all
I'm glad you figured it out...i had problems when i loaded a new rom...i went into settings, preferences, down to trouble shooting and set App processing to "Auto, Indirect"
Also another setting that has helped some in the same situation is in preferences as well... scroll down to "Migrate system data" this helps compatibility issues with ROM's.
Hope this helps someone in the future.
cheers
I see you fixed it but I believe you needed to choose refresh app list from menu. Just in case anyone else has this problem maybe it will help them.

I believe i did do that each time but nothing happened
but then I went into preferences then selected the folder for the "where to store" part of TiBu
nonetheless, glad I got it working and if anyone stumbles onto this problem, hopefully they'll see this thread
I didn't see another thread on this, so here goes nothing: anybody know of the best way to transfer data for my apps from my phone to the prime?

If you are talking about "data" like the progress on Angry Birds, then there is no way to do that without root. (at least on 2.x,afaik)
If you have root you can always create and restore backups with Titanium backup.

That's pretty much what I'm talking about – I'd like to transfer all my Tapatalk forum logins etc. over to the prime. I do have root on my phone.
I would think you would need root on phone AND tablet. Use something like Titanium backup on phone.. copy the Titanium folder to tablet.. install Titanium backup there and then restore the app on the tablet.
So I finally got my Transformer Prime and rooted it manually using the NachoRoot method because I wanted to get rid of all the ASUS bloat apps. After I rooted it, I installed Titanium Backup (free version cause my Market account is broke right now with purchases stuck in the Pending state) and since I couldn't use the "Freeze" function with the free version, my n00bness thought that if I backed them up first using Titanium Backup, then deleted them, that Titanium Backup would be able to restore them, but I found out the hard way, that wasn't the case... I've since read that it will only restore them if the app is still on the device.
So, my question to the people with more wisdom then myself is...
Is there a manual way to get those apps back on there via the backups that TiBa made?
I tried unarchiving them and manually putting the .apk's back in /system/app/ folder, but I noticed that the .odex file I don't have anymore and they're not showing up in the app drawer just putting the .apk files in there by themselves.
Is there anyone that would be so gracious as to do a full dump of the /system/app/ folder on the 8.8.3.33 build so I can just put the .apk's and .odex's back in there using Root Explorer?
My goal is to get those back in there the way it came stock and go back to using the Freeze method so it doesn't remove them so I don't have any issues when the ICS update hits.
Thanks in advance for anyone who chimes in to help!

i experience with Tbu is that you can batch add apps and their data regardless of whether you have them on the device or not... thats the whole point of it
and there is a dumb i believe in the development area... if i had my cable at work i woulda done it
but as long as you backed up in Tbu, just batch install them all
System dump: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1418487
Also, next time do a NAND backup of possible.
You could always reflash your ROM too.
And yes, Titanium backup keeps all the files you backed up in a folder. So even if you removed it from your device. Titanium has a copy on your SD card.
Thanks for the reply.
When I go into the batch section (I'm now on the paid version of TiBa), if I go into "Restore all apps with data" or "Restore missing apps with data", those both show nothing in the list to restore... but I know they're there cause I see them on the SD card in the TitaniumBackup folder and if I do a "Verify all your backups", they all show up.
I take it I'm missing something or am in the wrong menu?

means you didn't restore them, really.
or something is wrong with the app
Can you restore without data.

No, does the same thing as when I try to restore with data... just sits there saying "restoring" but I can let it go for 10 minutes on just one app and I eventually just force quit it since I know it's not doing anything.

Okay, so I downloaded that dump (thank's for the link)... so if I just put in the .apk and .odex for each app TiBa removed, will that do it? Is there anything else attached to each app that would go anywhere else besides the user data (which I don't want anyway)?
If you see tbu app backup stuff on your memory card you may need to go into the settings menu of tbu and change backup folder location to the place where that folder is on your sd

how would you do a NAND backup without booting into ClockworkMod? Unless i've missed it somewhere that is not yet available on Primes, and there are no ROMS available as of yet.

Okay, so I downloaded that system dump and tried taking the apk and odex for AppLocker (one I had removed with TiBa) and put them in /system/app/ and set the permissions the same as the other apps in the app folder and restarted the device... AppLocker doesn't show up in the app drawer
Any ideas why?

You should be able to push the apk to system to data - the odex should be created in dalvik_cache on boot (you need to rename them if you want to move them into /system)
what happens if you just run the apk? will it not install itself?

have you tried putting .33 on an sd card and doing a manual update. I know you already have it on, but if you put it on the sd card, it usually asks again if you want to update.
So until we have root again does anyone know of anything that will backup and restore our apps and data??

I backed up all my apps with TiBu on my Rezound, then un-compresed them and installed them manually from the internal storage. :good:
I used ES File Explorer to back up some apps. But you know, all your apps will just automatically install when you first sign in to your google account. Unless you have some apps that are not properly acquired

Hi everyone.
I have a Sony Xperia 1 III, it's my second Sony phone.
Is there any way to backup all disk data to a image file and complete restore data?
Even if the device is not decrypted or unlock bootlocker?
Like some PC software can backup all data to a .WIM .ESD files and restore it.
Of course, it's best not to damage the machine.
Thanks!
some PC software will make the magic happen yeah yeah sure

there is also kinda clone of this app, but it doesn't backup anything except what you can get from play store anyway.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.swiftapps.swiftbackup
depending on android version it might possible to override the app settings and create adb backup regardless of its AndroidManifest.xml.
There is also an old app for adb backup, but I haven't tested any of this.
