Open the superuser app before titanium, should fix it.

Not content with installing apps one by one, I decided to see if Titanium Backup would work..and alas! It does!
Pre-Reqs:
1. Rooted NookColor: http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Rooting
2. BusyBox: http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Installing_Busybox
3. SU/Superuser.apk: http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Installing_su_and_the_Superuser_app
Titanium Backup installed on the phone: http://www.appbrain.com/app/titanium-backup-★-root/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup (I recommend the paid version!)
Steps:
Open up Titanium Backup on your rooted Android phone, and backup the apps you'd like to transfer
Use Astro to backup Titanium Backup(Oddly wasn't able to do this through Titanium Backup itself?)
Use adb/astro to install Titanium Backup on the Nook, after BusyBox and SU have been installed
Transfer the 'TitaniumBackup' directory on your phones SD card to your nooks
Run Titanium Backup on your Nook, and go to batch restore, and then restore missing apps. I chose to restore the apps only, and not data.
Let it do it's thing, and you should be set Just did this with about 50 apps, and it seems to have worked.
you know, i was planning on trying this but never got to it. i'm glad you've already found out it can be done.
also, this is the easiest way to get busy box installed.

i wish, ive got busybox in the xbin folder but i get permission denied when installing
I was trying to use Titanium to back up whatever I have in my NC but no go.... it would always stay at 0%. Any ideas? I'm rooted and SU-ed.
I cannot get pass step 7. It said "bad mode"
A better way to install Busybox. Just install it from Titanium backup.
if you get the "bad mode" error, just use root explorer and copy busybox to the /system folder anthen install using the code in instruction # 11. then your good to go. thats how i got around it.
also i used a terminal emulator on the NC itself

just click "problems?" and titanium will install busybox in the correct location for you.

wish i had known that
bad mode
the "bad mode" was due to the chmod wrong format, it is now corrected on the site.

Titanium Backup is also an awesome way to get apps on to the NC that has problems installing otherwise:
1) Make a backup of the app you want on another device that has it successfully installed (in my case, my Vibrant).
2) Find the three files in your Titanium Backup folder on the SD card of the device. It'll have a date stamp with when you made you back up.
3) Copy and paste into the TB file on the NC's SD card.
4) Start TB on the NC and you should see that there's an uninstalled app at the bottom (the one you just "exported" from your other device).
5) Click on it and choose install (or is it "restore"?)
This is probably a repost and some of you already know it, but its just something else you can use TB for.
On my A101 with the 2.1.08 firmware, the main reason I bothered to root with Archangel was to use Titanium Backup. This program works flawlessly on my (rooted) Evo 4G. On my tablet, after running Archangel, TB looks like it's running, and backing everything up - no errors.
I had to RMA my tablet because of the USB/Sleep problem, and I thought I was good to go because I had a backup.
It turns out most/all of the backup files are empty. Restoring them either does nothing at all, or restarts the launcher.
Has anybody confirmed a successful restore using TB on an Archangel-rooted Gen8 device?
Just thought I'd put this out there for anybody assuming their TB backups are good. I'm about to try MyBackup.
Yes, I restored a backup to a freshly formatted unit, no problem. I'm sure with all the testing people here do, backups are tested quite regularly.

Yes thats correct. The first thing to do when installing titanium backup is selecting the "Problems" button to install a good busybox.
It works perfectly after that even with archangel root.
Ok - maybe I forgot to update BusyBox this time. I'll give it another chance.
- thx.
TB worked flawlessly with my rooting method after updating the busybox.
Hi,
I installed this custom stock rom on my TF300 and it's fantastic.
[ROM] ASUS ICS HYDRO 4.4-(8/10)-TF300/TF300tg-Super Fast!! MANY TRY BUT NON COMPARE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750861
It's rooted with busybox and SU permissions and works fine in most apps that require root. The only issue is that Titanium Backup uses it's own inbuilt version of busybox and states I don't have root.
Can I do anything about this rather apart from download an alternative backup app? Titanium is great and also gets rid of bloatware but is useless unless I can trick it into using external busybox SU permissions.
Any help would be appreciated.

You could try installing the version of busybox that TB prompts you to install when it says it can't find busybox. Alternately you could try installing a different version of busybox altogether. If those don't work I would recommend you try My Backup Root or the paid version My Backup Pro. My only word of caution with My Backup (Not sure they fixed it since the last time I used it) is that when it went to restore my music playlists it messed them up. So if that's something that is important to you then I would look into a different app for backing up music playlists.
hey guys,
I have a really tricky Problem with my Phone. I just updated from cm-10.1-20130728-NIGHTLY-i9300 to cm-10.2-20130814-NIGHTLY and i didn't realized that this one is the first CM with 4.3. I update my Phone nearly once a weak (CM for 3 Months) and I've never had Problems. So I don't make Backups anymore. (I know that isn't really smart )
But now the Problem is the following:
My Play Store can't download or update Apps. It says "Update for {...} could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error while retrieving information from Server.[RPC:S-5:AEC-o])"
My Backup apps (Titanium and Go Backup Pro) can't backup apps anymore. Go Backup Pro just says "an error has occurred" and Titanium backup says "Backup successful" but when I try to restore it, Titanium says "An error has occurred" too. Unfortunately they don't give me more information.
When I started my Phone the first Time with 4.3 there actually was no Root. If I started an app needing Root it just said my Phone is not rooted.
after reinstalling my Backup-Apps through an apk they now have Root rights. I think. I can't check cause they can't backup apps
I tried backup my Apps through ADB but It just freeze.
I still could use my Phone but every 30 seconds it says some App has crashed^^ even if the App doesn't crashed and it works fine.
What I want:
Just to backup my Apps und their data. So I can wipe my Phone and reinstall CM.
Any Ideas?

If you dont have a nandroid backup....
Flash 10.1 again over 10.2 - phone should work as before update. Use titanium to backup.

If I flash 10.1 over 10.2 I get a Bootloop.

You're gonna have to use ADB then. I know you said it freezes, but really you should be booted into recovery when doing this stuff (adb)
Try that.

Hi All,
I'm running the latest AICP 13.1 nightly on my Moto G4, rooted with SuperSU. My issue is that Titanium Backup throws an error when launching showing: "Sorry I could not acquire root privileges... This attempt was made using the "/system/bin/.ext/.su" command""
Starting a terminal and switching to root prompts SuperSU to ask to grant permissions and is successful. Same with busybox or the official TWRP app.
I've done a lot of digging and I'm at a bit of a loss. The only thing that seems somewhat odd is that busybox, SuperSU, and the Official TWRP App are all installed on the internal storage while Titanium Backup installed to the SD card. Moving Titanium Backup to the internal storage doesn't change the results though. The choice of where to install the apps wasn't made by me so I'm not sure what decides that.
Does anyone have any idea what I might try to get Titanium to work?
TIA!
The next daily of AICP seems to have fixed the issue, so I'm not sure what the root cause was.
