Titanium Backup is asking me to tick unknown sources in my phone settings in order to restore a backup. I tried going to settings to locate this but no luck. Where can i find the unknown sources box?
edit* Found it it was under security

I think I need to reflash the android system onto my device, because I uninstalled the wrong files and now so many system features are broken (phone book won't open, fc when I try, gmail app fc on opening email, all user installed keyboards fc, surely many more but this is enough to tell me I need a reflash). Question is, where do my current backups stand? Will I be able to use them?? Please help, thanks.

Officially, you can't backup anything and all your data will be lost. If you were careful (maybe you did ?), you would use Titanium Backup and xRecovery to do full backups, but now you've messed everything up, it's not even safe to do a backup of a corrupted system...
To reflash, use Pc Companion or SEUS. You can also (not recommended) use custom flashers you can get from developping section...
Hi, thanks for your quick response. I forgot to mention of course I used titanium to fully backup everything, glad to know this can be used. So what do I do, how do I initiate the reflash process???
well, check the top sticky post..

If you have unistalled any system application,then you do only push that application to phone,after that restore the sytem data by Titenium backup.hope you have schedule backup...
if you have deleted some system files, then reflash ur fone by flash tool....you can only reflash the system.bin.(you need to root again)
hope it will help you......
Thanks everyone, all I had to do was restore my titanium backup (all missing) and I'm good again!!! Sorry I'm a girl that's a little new to this (however I have been following these threads religiously for a while now) so I just kinda freaked out when it all went wrong lol! Thanks

Trying to do a restore using Titanium Back up.....however it sticks on this and wont move on
GSU 1.0.110722.8.21
Wondering if anyone has any ideas what this is and a remedy ?
Thanks

It's a 'galaxy security update'. Adds more security to your phone. If you ask me, it's useless.
Any Idea
thanks for quick reply ....... any idea where I need to look in order to get rid as it freezes titanium restore.....

Ehm, or check is usb debugging is enabled on your phone... When freezing apps for example having it disabled lets titanium backup 'hang'.
Hey Guys
I'm running the AOKP Build 2 ROM with the Jokersax 1.0 kernel.
I've wanted to switch to another ROM as the camera no longer works.
The other ROMs I have tried are different CM9 and MIUI US which seem to work fine except when I go to restore my apps from TiBu.
The date is exactly when it was backed up but the app only gives me an option to delete it, not restore. This happens with productivity, news and game apps, basically all the ones that I have had working well beforehand.
Any help is much appreciated as I'm about to destroy my phone with frustration.
Regards
Paul
Before you get flamed (perhaps), this belongs in Q&A, not this section. As for TB, I've never had that problem, but try uninstalling and going to root > data > app and delete the odex file. Then reinstall.

Since it's an app I thought this would be the best place for this.
Thanks for the quick reply, I'll give it a try.

Can't find the odex file and I've realised that it's only apps with data that haven't got the restore button as an option.

I've been trying to backup my EFS folder from my US Cellular GS3 (SCH-R530U) with very little luck. A couple hours of searching has pretty much everybody recommending the use of EFS Professional, so I grabbed that (release version 2.0.26), Problem is that it crashes after initializing the ADB server, hitting me with event name "CLR20r3". Searches to troubleshoot that error suggest that I check to make sure my .NET Framework is up-to-date and that I don't have any other ADB processes running in the background. Both of those have been done; error still pops up.
As-of-yet the phone is unrooted; I've been trying to backup the EFS before I begin a root and subsequent flash to AOKP (for starters). Does an unrooted R530U have issues backing up the EFS folder? Any ideas on how to fix the error EFS Pro is hitting me with, or alternative EFS backup options?
Many thanks in advance.
Are you asking in the right forum? Anything you try or download from here can kill your phone.

Was going to post in the developer's forum for EFS Pro, but don't have posting rights. So posting here on the off-chance somebody has an idea or an alternative.

He means this is the gt-i9300 section of the forum.
Download HC-ktool from market the easys way to backup efs. But u have to be Rooted.

I'd suggest a start from some modern recovery f.e. PhilZ Touch or CWM 6.0.3, both of them have very nice feature of making a backup, including your /efs folder. Then you can flash original stock recovery if you wish or simply flash any ROM you want because custom recovery is everything you need.

Have the same problem on my GNex. It's not root because Adaway can install the adblocker.
my root is working perfectly fine tho
temasek already explained. i'm guessing it's that sdcard permission thingy screwing things up
BUT, i've tried to backup to local and still showing error....weird
this is really scary, can't backup my data...
i did flash back the cm10.1 and it works fine again, guess just the app doesn't support cm10.2...

I've found a fix that may help you:
To fix, simply go to Settings->Developer options (if you don’t have that option go to About phone and hit Build number like 5 times until it says you are a developer), and set Root Access to “Apps and ADB”.
Then close all of your apps and re-open, you should now see Superuser window, problem fixed!

Unfortunately, because I've not enough posts, I can't link direct to the article but, I found it on the HighOnAndroid website.
Worked for getting Titanium Backup running on my S2.

It's not worked for me (S4 cm10.2 from cm10.1)...
This is worked for me:
Titanium backup Users
1. In tb go to menu>preferences>backup folder location
2. Navigate to storage/emulated/legacy
3. Select your Backup folder and Select "Use the current folder"
4. Then it will ask you to move backup to that folder.... Select that
5. Restart app and restore.
