I wanted to know if anyone knows of a good app that installs multiple apps at once just like in the Team Venom rom? I found a couple but none have the option as i have to install one by one instead of the app doing it for me.
how many apps do you need at any 1 time?
try app expert..
You mean like 'batch restore' in titanium backup pro?

Yes it's like batch restore. I have a lot of apps. In the Team Venom Rom you can click, lets say 6 apps, and then install with one click and not one by one by one.
With TB pro you can backup all of your apps and do a batch restore with or without data any time you have to factory reset for a new ROM its one of the best root apps ever.

I have TB. What I need is for something similar. It is for installing multiple NEW apps. Not restore old ones. I don't know if TB has the option for it as I haven't fully explored it yet.
In my opinion its not a good idea to install a bulk amount of NEW apps. If even one of them makes your phone not work properly you won't know which one it is. I think one app at a time is a safer way to go.

I am also curious about a program like this. I like Titanium Backup but when you have to reinstall 20 + apps it is still an arduous task because you have to tap install each time the next program is ready to install. It would be great to have an app that you select which of your backups you want to install, click ok, then walk away and in 5 minutes they are all installed. Is there such a thing?
Titanium backup pro does that. I restore about 130 apps in 10 minutes, automatically.

You need the pro version of tb to get batch restore. Its well worth the $5 or $6 whatever it is these days. By far the best paid app I have ever used.

No worries, I agree it's one of the best apps I've ever bought.

If you have ROM Toolbox Pro in App Manager you can backup all downloaded apps. Then if you clean flash a ROM, just sign in, add back ROM Toolbox Pro and batch restore all missing apps. Its great because you can also backup only newer versions of the apps you have etc..I swear this app is in my top 5. I use the,terminal emulator, build.prop tweaks if necessary, Font Changer and more
Edit...can't go wrong with Titanium Pro either.

Forgive me, I know this has been discussed by search turned up a lot of fruitless stuff to wade through.
Real simple: Is there a way to backup my phone 100% before trying a new ROM?
I'm not so much worried about contacts, etc... as I sync with Exchange at work. More about saving all customizations, apps, etc.... when I want to try a new ROM release. (I know I"ll have to re-setup all that on the new release... just want to be protected if I decide to go back to the previous ROM).
Thanks!!!
That's what a nand backup does
Backup - nand
Ahhhh..... always wondered about that, but my quick google-search came up empty.
So I don't need something like the app "ROM Manager", though it sounds like it'll make life easier.

Download Titanium from the market. It allows you to backup all of your apps, data within those apps, and system data (settings, etc.). You can run a batch to backup everything and even schedule it to do backups at certain dates and times.
When you flash the new rom, go back to the market and install Titanium again. Do a batch restore and it'll install your apps and all like you had it.
Also if you use ADW or Launcher Pro you can back up your home screens and restore them so they'll be set up just like before. Note - you'll have to manually add widgets back.

Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
For just restoring Apps and the data when switching between roms, I recommend.....no, HIGHLY recommend Titanium Backup. Not only does this app backup apps and the data of the apps, it also backups the market cache, so on the market, the app would list as being installed. It's incredibly useful. It also allows you to uninstall system apps by the way.
I know that and that's not what I'm getting at, I don't want to get titainium backup pro and the regular titainium backup takes forever to restore because u have to hit install for every app and its very tidious sooooo, I came to the conclusion since its in my backup files why can't I just restore it from there because its just one click and no hassle... but I want to know if that works.
P.S. I have titainium... and mybackup root too...

It may have apps that are specific to the previous ROM. I've done it and it can work but if its a differnt ROM it can cause problems. try it and see.
Personally I'd save up the 6 bucks and buy Tibkup if you are going to flash ROMS Titanium Backup is going to be one (if not the one) most used application you will use. If you can't part with the 6 bucks get MyBackup Root I don't think it prompts you for restores but I could be wrong (I haven't' used it since I bought TB)

Other than that you can take a chance and restore /data or if your on 2.2 or higher let Google restore all your apps from the cloud but a lot of ROMs don't seem to auto restore.

I've been using titanium backup when I flash a new rom. I usually do a full data wipe then, once the new rom is installed, i restore all of my apps and data.
The problem I'm having with titanium backup is that I have to individually install each app which is extremely time consuming.
Does anyone know of a more efficient method of backing up my apps?
BTW, I know you can make a .zip file using titanium but I wasn't able to flash it.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I just spent a couple bucks for the Pro key, which allows for batch restoring/backups. Completely worth it when you're wiping and flashing on a daily basis.
I agree. I bought the Pro key. I think buying it through the Amazon App store will bypass any currency conversion issues, possibly. (It seems like when I bought Titanium Backup Pro, I got charged an extra dollar because of the currency conversion....I don't think I had that problem with another app in a non-local currency via Amazon.)
I am seconding what he said. The Pro key is well worth the couple of bucks or whatever it costs. You just hit the restore and let it do it's thing. No prompts.
At $5.99, this will be one of the most expensive apps I have purchased but I'll give it a try if you guys say it's worth it.

It was the second app (of two) I ever purchased (the other being The Sims for $1), and it was totally worth it. Titanium Backup is simply a great program. The batch functionality alone is worth the price- Dropbox integration is a very nice perk (along with a few other Pro features).
I astro for back ups
I bought the Pro version of Titanium Backup after my first slow and tedious backup without the batch function. Plus the automatic backups are great.
i use my backup pro
Gonna have to invest in this as well. Thanks.
Alrighty. Just purchased and backing up as I type. I'll let you guys know.

It does, actually, in stock Froyo and above, but for some reason the ROMs we have on the Fascinate right now don't.
Normally, when you activate your Google account on a newly flashed phone, all your apps, paid and free, will automatically download as part of your first sync. It doesn't prompt you and it's totally automatic.
I do prefer using TB, though, as Google doesn't backup app data and it can take a really long time to download every app if you have a lot of them. Also, Google's sync occasionally misses apps or downloads ones that you had uninstalled.

I wonder if I have always done something wrong then, I may be new to the fascinate rom scene but I flashed multiple roms on my og droid and they never seemed to give me more than the paid apps
in the market.
admittedly these were aosp roms not stock verizon roms maybe that had something to do with it?
I have the paid version off TB as well but when flashing from say a TW rom to an AOSP rom I prefer to download the apps from the market everything seems to run smother when I do it this way.

Agreed...titanium b/u is worth every penny...on a side note, for me going into settings-> applications-> manage applications-> running applications and going to market (or in my case since I'm on ukb...its tsm market) and hitting clear data...then when I go to the market and hit my apps it will show all of my apps both free and purchased, assuming I don't have any of them frozen because frozen apps won't get recognized by the market...it doesn't start downloading on its own but at least I have a list of complete app download history should I need an update.

In my opinion, the best backup app that has worked as advertised in every ROM and every phone I've ever owned is Titanium Backup.
It's quick and easy to install and it's cheap to go pro, plus the dev offers incredible support and provides frequent updates to the software when needed.
You can do batch backups, backup only installed apps or the whole thing, it backup apps with the data; you can do cloud backups as well.
