I am currently using Xperia Sola. I frequently flash custom ROMs. However, after installing a new custom ROM, I have to go through the process of installing apps all over again.Also, I would to preserve the settings and data for each of application (which gets lost everytime i reinstall the app). Is there anything which can install/restore a fixed set of apps along with their data(whatsapp,fb messenger,sms backup restore etc) directly in one go for a new ROM.
In case I haven't looked deep enough, please post links to threads which already discussed this.

I am facing one minor issue , not sure if it is because of Titanium Backup.
I use Facebook Messenger a lot, when I restored this , I dint get any notifications from this app , the app was even updated from Google Play Store but stil no notifications
So could it be because the app was not installed cleanly in first place and restored using Titanium Backup? Any one faced similiar issues while using this tool?

I backed up my apps using Titanium backup and I tried flashing the codename android rom but when i tried to restore my apps using titanium, a lot of the apps cant be installed. Will i have to re-install all the apps one by one? What will happen to the app data?
Thanks

I've never personally had good luck restoring App + Data. I think it only worked for me maybe two or three times out of all the times I've tried to restore.
I've had much better luck re-installing the apps from the Market (now Play Store) individually, and using Titanium to restore JUST the app Data.
It makes it a pain, but at least it works, and you only have to do it once.
same problem
even i am facing the same problem...
yesterday i rooted my phone & installed AOKP ROM
before installing that ROM i had taken a titanium backup of all the apps & data..
now i am not able to see any apps.. not even the titanium backup app..
also my sd card shows no folders..
please help...

How is this at all the same problem?
Sounds like you lost root when you updated, and need to re root. Also sounds like your AOKP install either was a wipe install, or you did a wipe when you installed, thus wiping out your apps.
ok,, after doing some research & analysis.. & also with some help from my fried.. i have restored the apps.. but they are not restored properly.. i havent checked all apps.. but when i opened whatsapp i see tat the display picture of 1 contact is applied to the display picture of another contact.. its reflected in people app as well..
also my sd card issue remains the same..
i am not able to see any folders which were present in my sd card..
@ctomgee - i still have root access..
please help
i dont know what has gone wrong..

Internal or external sd?
I don't know anything about AOKP, so I doubt I can help much. You are probably better off asking for help in the ROM thread.
Also you can restore your APP manually using the APK installer. Just locate where those APKs are stored...
Hope this helps!
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 .
jje
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.

I am having apps that were installed using their APKs. And they are backed up by Titanium Backup Pro. Now if any of that apps gets a newer version and I need to install it by uninstalling the prev version first, will I be able to get the data restored back using Titanium? My confusion is whenever I uninstall an app will Titanium make its backup vanished as well?

why would you need to uninstall previous version if you are getting it from Play Store?

No need for any backup unless you are doing factory reset.....Just install the new version and replace the old version if it prompts. You will not loose any data.

Had it done. Generally when a newer APK (Hopefully people in here know why me is using APKs with Google Play as well) of an app comes out if I click on the install button it just asks for permission to replace it. But there are some that mess it up. That is why I have to uninstall them first and then install the newer version APK. I have seen if I restore back the data, it is just fine
No issues.
Thanks.
Titanium backup Restore
Hi!
I can´t restore any apps after I flashed a new rom ([ROM]Oct 26|JellyBean|☆☆☆MS Team HD 5.0☆☆☆|Stable |Eye Cacthing|Aroma|Online kitchen)
I have dual boot and First rom is [ROM]Oct 26|JellyBean|☆☆☆MS Team HD 5.0☆☆☆|Stable |Eye Cacthing|Aroma|Online kitchen

I cant´t restore my apps in Titanium in neither of them, tried to restore only app..app and data.. but neither work! Is there any fix
Do I have to format my SD?
Having always rooted my phones I never had an issue backing up apps and data via Titanium backup but am now looking for a solution to back up apps and their data on my non-rooted Z2.
Having just flashed the latest Z2 firmware via Flashtool which wipes the phone, I've restored backups I had made with Sonys Back Up and Restore app only to find it didn't backup all it said it did, so had a number of apps and data missing.
Can anyone recommend a solution to this

I was in the same boat as yourself, Ive found a good one is HELIUM, plus helium will state what apps don't have a backup option coded into them so unlike sonys own app u wont be annoyed when some apps do/don't backup Also Helium allows cloud backups as well as internal and external sd card backups
Im currently using helium for apps and Mybackup pro for my text message backups as I found heliums message backups were weirdly in the opposite date order to normal use( instead of latest being at bottom of list it was at top)
Thanks mate, will give Helium a try

Just confiming, does Hellium doesnt back up the app data like TB?
I know ive read somewhere there is an app by chainfire for app and data backup for non rooted but at first glance it seem a bit long winded so never bothered with it.
I used easy backup which restored my apps, sms, mms, call log etc all no probs but yeah problem was no data backed up so had to set them all up like email, settings etc all over again.
I understand Unlocking and Rooting an Xperia is a tough task. But the stock ROM is good enough.
A good article here. It helped me and it may help you too buddy.

well your not gonna get the same level of backup due to lack of root, but for me it saved things like game progression(i.e angry birds) but didn't save things like custom widget sets in HD widgets app. But not the end of the world.
Ive started looking at my backups a bit more in detail and asking do I really need a backup of some apps, as some are just install-login to app and use no custom data to speak of to really backup. Or other apps like XDA app and game progression which have custom settings and progression Id like to save.

bro, Last time I used Helium is when it was called Carbon, I tried it with Xperia S and it didn't worked at all, after that I saw this in it's description in Play Store
Note: Some Sony devices have issues with Helium. This includes the Xperia S and Xperia Z. Sony has *disabled* backup on these devices completely.

I lost hope after that, so does it work now on Z2 ?
I'm still not in a hurry to have Z2 as there's still no way to root without unlocking the bootloader, and I will not unlock the bootloader without backing up the TA partition first ( which requires root )... so I've been looking for a way to copy some of my app's data from my old phone to Z2, I used to use Titanium Backup always but you know, no root = no TB...
so can you confirm please that you used Helium to backup AND restore app's data to the Z2 ? or you're just guessing from a non-xperia experience ?

I used helium to backup my apps on my s3 then install them on my z2, ive also backedup up my current apps on my z2 since, but like ive already said helium cant backup certain apps as the app developer hasn't allowed backup function. Helium did the job for me for my game progression and a few apps where I wanted current setup saved.
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.
