I have now tb pro. But i don't know which one i need to choose i also don't know how to restore it after i installed the new rom.
After installing new rom tb pro is also gone right?
Can you guys please help me ?
Use batch backup to backup all user apps + system data. Also you'll need the tb apk for re installing after flashing

Indeed, just click on 'Back up' to back up your apps and their data, but only on your own user apps, never system apps. After flashing, install TB from the Play Store and click 'Restore'.

Allright I know how to backup my own user apps. But how can I backup my contacts too? Do i need 2 backups then?

There is no need to backup your contacts, they are automatically backed up by your google account. As soon as you sign in on your new rom it will sync your contacts for you.
If you want to backup your apps you should just use the batch icon in top right and then choose the section for backup of user apps and it will backup your apps and appdata.
On your new simply re-install TB and then use restore option. If it doesnt find your backup location/show backups in batch you will need to go to preferences and choose backup folder location again.
To do all this silently (not click install on each app) you will need to be rooted and have pro version.
PS. This is not a galaxy s2 topic. These types of topics belong in the general/android section as its not device specific.

backup & restore
...there are several ways to do that..
apps
- through tb..normal backup->restore..update.zip...your choice..
- or any other b&r app
contacts
- sync via google
- import/export trough app (.vcf vcard)
- through tb..backup&restore Contacts data then reboot
[Kontakte 4.1.2-eng.root...]
& optional , cause i don´t know atm if needed..[Kontakte-Speicher 4.1.2-eng.root...]
cwm-backup to be save :angel:
yes..at the new rom you will have to install tb first in order to use it.
dowload the apk from authors website to your external sdcard
.u could do.
dowload titanium-backup-apk to your phone..
sync your contacts with google..batch-backup all inc sys apps+data..
make a cwm-backup..copy cwm & titanium backup folders to a safe place..
do your rom-update
do the appropriate settings and install tb..restore what you need and have fun :victory:
Or if you've bought titanium backup you could restore it from store after installation

Allright thanks everybody, it worked

Hi everybody!
I was wondering if there is a way to install in "batch mode" apps from the market. Since I change rom very often, it takes me a lot of time to install over 200 apps, one by one, from the market every time.
Thanks everybody.

Why don't you use Titanium Backup? You can just use the Batch option to backup and then restore all your apps with data. (you should have the pro version for this). You don't have to depend on the Market (or the Play store) for restoring the apps. Titanium Backup even restores the apps with the market links. Couldn't live without it.
Ok thank you for fast reply.... I already bought titanium pro but if I restore the apps from titanium, will they updated from the market? Or what happen with the purchased apps? Thanks you for your help!

Titanium Backup Pro not only backups up your apps and data, but it also backs up 'market links'. So after restoring your apps, your market app will recognize the installed apps and you can update the apps in the future when you get any updates. And it will also work with purchased apps, so don't worry.
My silly method for new roms .
Update apps on the market .
Update the Titanium Pro backup .
Do a Nandroid backup .
New rom .
Restore apps from TB .
Nandroid in reserve in case you want to go back to old rom .

Wow! Perfect!
Now last question: i heard that somebody suggest to restore only the apps and not the data, because it can creates some problem for mixing old data with the new system. Is it true or i can go on in this way?

You can restore Apps+Data for all your apps. No problem. But do NOT restore with Data for any system app coz your new ROM will have different system data. You don't have to worry about normal apps though.

Hi all, I was on an unrooted 2.3.3 standard rom, I then rooted, made a full backup and an apps backup using titanium. I then flashed to Ressurection Remix 1.8.1 and noticed that my contacts did not come back. I thought with a full backup and apps backup that the contacts would be backed up, but I am not sure If I have now lost them or what I can do to get them recovered, can anyone help ?
If I recovered my full backup, would that have my contacts in it ?
If you had signed in using Google account, sign in again and you're contacts will be available.... Unless you set the option specific to phone only

One its wrong forum rules say Q&A for questions .
TB backs up your apps only .
Nandroid backup is full image of rom .
Kies backup of contacts or Google synced or restore from Sim card .

It's bordering on a question and a request for assistance. I'm sure a moderator will move it if its in the wrong place.
TB makes a backup of apps, but I have noticed (after the event) that it will also backup contacts if you manually select it to. Why this isnt turned on by default is baffling.
The Nandroid backup is not a backup then, its a rom backup. That was my mistake for thinking it was a backup of the phone.
I dont use Kies, or google or store contacts on sim. I take it I have lost my contacts completely now then and no way of getting them back ?
Would a data recovery program be able to read the phones internal memory as a drive ? You would think there is something it could recover ?
The file recovery program RECUVA free ware is worth a try or you could open a Nandroid backup .
Nandroid is an image of the phone rom in full including contacts .

thanks thats encouraging and good to know, I'll have a play around with it tonight when I get in from work.
RECUVA wouldnt see the phone memory. Nandroid backup let me look at the backup that was made, I saw the contacts.apk but even after I saved it to a location (I did this several times) I went to the location and it didnt show. I even tried to install but it says there was a contacts list there and wouldnt let me overwrite.
I did a full recovery and now all my contacts are back. I will make several backups of these hehe. I don;t want that to happen again.
Thanks for the help.

You can use Titanium Backup to restore your contacts. You have to backup everything first (user applications and system data), flash your new ROM, reinstall TB.
At this point, you can restore your contacts: just open TB and search the backup list for something like "[Contacts....]......" with green title. Restore it (data only), reboot and you should see your contacts.
All the "[something]" items in green are settings and data. Contacts, wireless networks, bookmarks, and so on.
I use this procedure for every new ROM.
Only problems found: restoring SMS/MMS from GB to ICS doesn't work (for me, at least).
Good Luck
You can recover lost contacts from Samsung Galaxy after rooting. To do this, connect your Galaxy phone to your laptop and use a Samsung Contact Recovery program to be able to view the deleted files in the task window. After this, click on the ones that you want to recover.

Yeah use Titanium Back Up as mentioned in the post above.
Once u open TB, on the top right of the screen u will see a tick within a box. Click on this. It will open Batch Backup/Restore options.
Click on Backup all user apps before flashing a new ROM.
once u have flashed a new rom, click on Restore missing apps with data.
Titanium backup
Ultimate Backup
App2Zip - You choose the apps you want and it puts them in a flashable zip on your SD card or internal storage. When you install your new ROM, just install the flashable zip and you have your apps back. Only thing is, it doesn't save the app data with it
AppExtractor - You can extract and install apps AND/OR app data from CWM recovery backups. You can also restore WiFi info, Bluetooth settings, contacts n I think a couple of other things.
All in the market.

I already checked other threads about this topic, but I have more specific stuff to ask about backup of user apps + system data, since I'm doing the GB>ICS update with downgrade+fullwipe+root:
- won't the restore of system data bring back old gingerbread files/broken stuff (I had a problem with video recording, I don't want to bring it with me)?
- are the phone contacts part of the "system data"? Can I just backup those and not the rest of data, since I don't care at all about sms or phone settings in general?
- do i lose photos and videos in the SD card if i wipe-flash a new rom?
- can I choose which user apps to backup? I don't really need to backup 'em all
- after the full wipe, all i have to do is redownload TB, look for the backup in the SD card and restore it?
Maybe there was more, if i remember I'll post it here =)
- do i lose photos and videos in the SD card if i wipe-flash a new rom?
Nope
- can I choose which user apps to backup? I don't really need to backup 'em all
Create a label. Its under Filter options.
- after the full wipe, all i have to do is redownload TB, look for the backup in the SD card and restore it?
Yes. After you install TB the backups are already listed there with a Smiley face

* in full wipe, all contents like photos. And videos or others are not deleted.
* you can backup ur user apps and data using titanium backup and get back after flashing new rom through it do don't worry about user apps.
* yaa only redownload TB from play store and get back ur all user apps through it.
Cheers...

but you shouldnt backup apps from gingerbread and try to restore them under ics
i heard with some apps this will bring you force closes
Ok then, let's say I backup contacts directly on the Gmail account, as for the apps, does the backup save the whole app or just the data/savings? I don't mind reinstalling all the apps since Gmail keeps them saved on my account, I just don't want to lose some settings and games' savings, what should I choose in the end?
Edit: and backing up apps moved to SDcard, does it bring them back automatically to SD when you restore? Or should I move to phone every app I want to backup?

titanium will do this job
if you want to backup it will ask u wether u want to backup only the data or the whole app
if u restore it will ask this again
Great! So if I backup the app data only, then reinstall the app on ICS and restore its data, I shouldn't encounter the compatibility problems you mentioned, right?
Exactly
I did it several Times this way and all went great

Hey
Im using Custom Roms now for over a year, but i always have one problem with restoring data.
I mostly use the Google Feature, that restores all your apps. But all the time i have to login in every app again and again. I mostly als make a Titanium Backup, but when i restore these over the preinstalled apps some apps crash or on Lineage OS the whole System was unusable. I also make a TWRP backup, restoring is not always possible when you switch to another Rom.
I also dont own Titanium Backup Pro, so autoinstalling dont work.
How do you restore apps + data ?
What guide did i miss ?
Thanks in advance
move up.
I 'm also interested which app for backup is recommend.
I know oandbackup and TitaniumBackup.
Till know I only tried oandbackup but there are several problems. Backup to SD-Card doesn't work. Also to internal storage the backup was complete but only a few MB big but should have a lot more.

After letting Google install all the apps just restore data from titanium, NOT app+data. Also, if you do this often just buy titanium. You spend so much money on the phone and titanium also works on all your future phones. It really saves you a lot of time and is well worth the money.
Titanium is the answer , it is feature packed as hell.
Also if you want to use a different android version backup to another version (Like from 9 to 10), you can always just restore the Data, it works for me always.
You can let google download all your previous apps in android 10 and then restore only data from Titanium, you can obviously batch select the apps to restore.

About the best way to Backup & Restore Data on Xiaomi phone, if there is a computer, my suggestion is Coolmuster Android Assistant. It's easy and safe. You just need to connect your Xiaomi phone to computer via usb cable, enable usb debugging on it. A deep scan later, you can take backup of your Xiaomi phone with 1-click. After that, you can use it restore data from backup directly.
