App backup failing - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

HI everyone
I am trying to backup my apps using App Backup. My prime is on .14, rooted. Every time I try backup even one app, it fails. I have tried both backing just the application and both app and data, and it failed both times
Can anyone help me please?

Un-rooted the tablet and still App backup is not working. I don't want to reset the tablet...can someone please tell me if their app backup is working on .14?

I attempted it as well and it failed. I've been using Titanium Backup. Never even tried the included program.

BUMP
Just got my PRIME and after installing some Apps thought a backup was in order.
I rooted the tablet, and now App Backup will not run. Bombs out before backing up the first App. Unrooted, and the same thing (aborts without backing anything up).
Suggestions?

[Q] Titanium Backup Pro Restore Fail

I flashed CM7 Nightly Build 20 this morning and found out that it messed up my phone, so I odined back to stock, rerooted my phone and reflashed nightly build 17 which had been working on my phone. When I batch restored my missing apps with data (I made sure not to restore system apps) with Titanium Backup Pro it said that it restored everything but a lot of my apps are missing their data. I have tried restoring some of the missing data individually but TB says that it failed each time I try to restore any apps or data that way. Help!
Ur backup is corrupt I think?

I'm worried you might be right. The only reason I have any hope that it isn't corrupt is that I have TB set to store 3 backups and the one before my previous backup used to work fine and now it doesn't. I've tried searching but haven't found a solution yet.
tb does have a verify backup. U have to make sure u use that every once in a while so if it is corrupt u catch it. good luck

That's the weird thing, I made my most recent backup this morning and then verified it and everything said it was fine.
The same thing is happening to me using #22, data restore is not working.
Even for the same rom, if i back an app+data, uninstall it, and the try to restore it i always get "data restore failed"...
Please tell me if you can solve this, i'll do the same
where u getting #22????

I thought it was only me. I get data restore errors on both MIUI and CM7, so I assume it's an error with Titanium Backup since they just released an update today.

maybe because the build 20 cant mount SD
Titanium backup new update... it works now. They messed up with the last one for sure
Thanks for all of your responses. I just downloaded the latest update to TB and I am able to restore once more. Thankfully I now have everything back to normal.

[Q] ASUS App Backup - No data?

Has anyone had a problem with ASUS App Backup like this? I ran a backup last night just before downgrading to .15 so I could root the Prime, wiped data, then ran a restore. Appbackup (couldn't use Titanium as not rooted) says 'success' for all data, but nothing's actually restored.
I've tried clearing data as suggested in the app itself, along with uninstalling and reinstalling a load of stuff. Should I just accept it's all gone, or is there a way to look inside the backup file from something else and see what's in there?
I have the same exact problem. Glad I am not the only one!
Odd isn't it? I ended up getting most of what I needed from an old backup in the end. I didn't realise the backup file was too big - 300MBish backed up turned into a file almost a gig in size, I wonder if that had anything to do with it.

I can't restore any file. I originally thought it was my password but then I ran a small backup test.
Here is what I posted on some other sites:
I backed up my apps using Asus's App Backup Program.
But when I try to restore an app, it won't open file no matter what password I try to enter, which I never set a password to begin with.
I tested this issue by just backing up one app with no password set and then trying to restore and once again it won't open the file.
Thank
Rob

Hi, I want to know if you ever happen to fix your issue with Asus' Backup App. I continue to have issues, even with doing simple one file backups. I can't open any file to restore.
I finally called Asus and opened case (case# 1866051) but they immediately wanted me to perform a 'wipe' first. I guess after that they will want to try a factory reset.
But I complained that I spent too much time setting my 300 for the look and settings that I like and that I need to backup everything first.
Of course, I can't backup using Asus' Backup app, since that is unable to restore. It is the issue!
So I need to find something else that will backup my settings so that I can't restore my unit to how it looks and is set.
I am rooted so I can using Titanium Backup. But I wish there was something else that I would not need root to use, that can backup my settings. Does anyone know if anything, that can do that without the need for root?
Also, I need to 'unroot' my device first before I start playing around with 'wipes and factory resets' I can't have that get in the way of all of this.
And in the end, if they offer to replace my 300, I need to send it back without any of the root stuff on it.
Please let me know if you've fixed your App Backup app and about any other backup programs that I can use that don't need root what will backup my settings.
Thanks!
Rob

I have ICS Resurrection Remix 2.2 and yes i am rooted, i think i solved it!!, i just located the backup that had the bug (Angry Birds space and angry grand) , downloaded the apps again and restored data and made another backup!,
Thanks for your time
Titanium Backup error solved.
If parsing error occurs, reflash SuperSU and make sure it updates binaries using CWM/TWRP.
Another reason could be in 4.3, TiBu doesn't look up location of the Back Up properly.
There is an easy fix.
Titanium Backup> Menu> Preferences>Select Backup Folder Location>Select Detect>Select Whole Device
Select storage/emulated/legacy/TitaniumBackup
Use the Current Folder
Restart TiBu
Worked on my GS 3 .
Let me know how it goes.

Not all apps restoring with TB

Hello everyone,
I just got my S3 yesterday and have already rooted it and attempted to use Titanium Backup (TB). I was able to successfully restored a couple of apps, but the bulk of my apps wont restore. When restoring I am not receiving any errors, and it appears as it is processing/restoring them correctly, but when it finishes it says (it does say Restore complete), the apps do not appear in my app draw and in TB they have a line struck through them (typically means that it sees the backup information but it is not installed on the phone).
Anyone have any ideas?
Im on Sprint 16gb S3 and am coming from rooted OG Evo. I use the Root method found here
Thanks for your time and help
Maybe they are not compatible with ICS?

Did you try rebooting your phone?
Thanks for the quick replies guys. I have tried rebooting my phone and still no luck. I came from CM9 on the EVO so there shouldnt be a problem with ICS (unless there is something that I dont know). Thanks though.
I did download one app and it was a lot of steps but was able to restore the data for that app. I am going to see if I can find the files for my sideloaded apps and restore the data that way.
If anyone else has any idea why this isnt working in the first place I would love to hear about it. thanks
Did you try manually restoring the apps? Titanium backup won't mix old data with a new version of the app or vice versa. If an app updated and you have old data backed up with the app, you would have to manually restore the app if I remember correctly.
Thanks. I tried but it wont let me manually restore them. When i click on the app, the option to manually restore is not there (it happens both when I have or havent manually downloaded the app). I can see that it still says that the current rom/phone is my Evo. So i am wondering if that has to do with it....just really strange. wondering what i did wrong.
Check out titanium backups website and Check the troubleshooting page. I think it talks about transfering apps from different phones.

Does it say which app it's trying to back up when it hangs on 2%? I've found that some apps don't play well with TiBu, especially when I'm trying to restore the app. Maybe you can exclude that app from the backup run.

I dnt know about the backing up issue but I can tell you when restoring apps and your having problems and ill asume its when restoring app/data cuz thats what I had problems with. When I try to restore both it hangs. If you just reinstall the app for playstore or the apk from wherever you got it from then use tb to restore just data ...That works everytime.
Maybe for backing apps and data up maybe do one at a time. It may take longer but youll get them backed.
