Does anyone know in which folder do all the apps downloaded from the Market go? Where are they stored on the phone? It would be nice to transfer a copy of these downloaded files to the laptop for future use.
Install ASTRO (which is free in market), then try to perform a backup of all apps, it will store every installed APK files in a folder.
the pre-installed apks go to a cache folder that gets intermittently cleared out... the installed apk's go to data/apps
data>apps, btw, I had asked this question yesterday

Thanks for the reply, I will install that app. But I wanted to be able to manually pick up the files which are downloaded from the Market and put them in my laptop as a backup so that I don't have to download them again. For that I need to know which folder are they stored.
@kryptoner: Only those files which I got from other than the market are stored in data>apps. I am talking about the installer package of the ones which are downloaded from the market. They are NOT stored in data>apps
@lennyUk: I wanted to know where they are stored while they are being downloaded from the market, before they are installed. When you order any app from the Market, it automatically downloads and installs it, and after that the installer package is nowhere to be found. Are you saying they are downloaded to the Cache folder and are immediately deleted after installing? Coz I can't see any of my previously installed apps in the Cache folder

yes the cache immediately clears out, if you want to backup the app (which is silly as your google account always remembers purchases) then use an app like titanium backup or just copy the apk from a root file manager.
"just copy the apk from a root file manager".........
I have Root Explorer, that's why I was asking where the files are stored. Now after you've told me it's Cache, I will be able to copy it to some place else so that I'm able to transfer it outside the phone. That way I can use the file in another phone without having to download it again. Thanks. That's all I needed to know.
you can copy the .apk file using root manager in /data/app/
the installations from market do go under /data/app/
Hey everyone, i'm currently using a xperia x10i - 2.3.3 - rooted.
I looked around alot and I couldn't find the steps to un-installing applications that came with the phone.
Some Applications that came with my phone include: Hami, Hami Apps, HamiBook, KKBOX and a whole lot of other asian applications (I got my phone from eBay). I don't use any of these applications and they are apps that arent supposed to come with the phone (like messaging etc.)
Anyways I can't uninstall them normally but i really want them gone, my device is rooted and I heard it's possible to remove them. Can someone please help and tell me how to do so?
Thanks!
use the titanium backup apk. Go to the backup and restore in titanium backup and search for the application for delete. click on that and select uninstall! Hope i helped you
Or, mount file system as r/w, and mavigate to /system/apps. Delete the .apk's from there.
Titanium Backup ★ root but also ASTRO File Manager
Titanium Backup ★ root but also ASTRO File Manager.
Titanium Backup to uninstall the apps and future backup an app management .
ASTRO File Manager (for file an Phone management) To find all the data that the apps left behind if you don't delete the data an backups then when you login to the market they could say installed, besides you do not know if they are spammer apps or what. I would just delete them all an data too with out backing them up. And then do a Titanium Backup. Or just do a Sony repair or better yet do a factory reset an do a Sony repair then flash a stock/generic 2.3.3 for your region. Just to be sure that way you know what you have. And here are some links too do all that just read and watch the videos and it's easy too do, The first one is the easiest but you can look at them all to be the judge.

But the problem is he got the phone off EBAY and most sms/mms have access to all the phone accounts so I think the best thing to do is WIPE ALL reflash/reroot because the phone is rooted and you don't know where/who the phone really came from or who made the apps. Just to be sure i think that would be a good thing to do don't you, I mean if I/you got a hard drive or sold one you/I would wipe it, The phone is the same thing it's just a different type of computer/hard drive.
I've created a backup called "app +data (easy import)".
Now I can't find any option to restore an app from this backup.
Not from dropbox nor from a titanium backup folder.
Titanium does not see this file and says there is no backup for that app.
So how to restore an app from this kind of backup??
Try clicking on the backup file either in Dropbox or the local file system and running it. Titanium Backup will then ask if you want to restore the app and or data. I know I saved my backup in Gmail, and after downloading, I just press view in Gmail itself and TiBackup will show that dialog.

it was enough to update to the nevest verssion.
Now I have a bigger problem.
It does not restore any data of system apps.
Not Go Launcher, nor Go sms, or rom settings are being restored.
I've tried to flash the rom again an then restore - no result.
How to force titanium to restore system apps data?
ps. I was able to do it before. It's just stopped working.
Hi I am having similar problems, backed up using easy backup apk & data, sent via gmail to my other phone with Titanium backup on it, when I open it TB recognises it and says please wait, but nothing happens the app does not install. It is only a widget that I want installed but its not having it :crying:
Also I have a tf101 which is not rooted is there anyway I can unzip without TB to use this free widget as its not on the general market, I have a paid version of TB and using the latest release, but obviously not on the tf101.
Any help appreciated as it is frustrating I cannot save apks to other phones.
Thanks
How to restor Titanium backup "TiBkp files

I never found the correct answer to this question, which - from my experience - is a rather improbable one. This is the answer:
Find your TiBkp file with some kind of file explorer. In my case: I used "root explorer", probably any other one will do as well. Tap on it.
You will see: "No activity found to open this file."
Your options are
a) cancel
b) open as.
Choose "open as".
Now you get a lot of options (I see seven). One of them is: APK file. Choose it.
Now you may select an "option for null" (probably the null refers to the unknown file extension TiBkp) .
The options are: cancel, view and Install.
Choose install.
Now you get the option from Titanium backup to restore your files. And that works perfectly.....
Cheers :victory:
Hello, i Know this thread is old, but i seem to have run into the same problem. My tibkp file is grayed out and i can't access it. and when i navigate to it and try to open it, it won't give an option to open it with Titanium. Help please. Thank you
PS I have a rooted S7 Edge. Thank you
Hm.. I'm having a similar issue: I can't import .TiBKP files anymore; two devices, S6 Edge running SuperSU-rooted nougat, and Tab S2 running magiskSU-rooted nougat (in both cases the nougat itself is from samsung)
Hello im having troubles backing up an app.
Whenever i back up i get three files (.apk .tar and one PROPERTIES) instead of the .TiBkp. I cant restore said files.
Help please.
New phone, Old problem. Trying to use .TiBKP files to migrate apps&settings from my old phone to my new one, rather than just simply copy everything using smart switch, but opening them in Titanium Backup is NOT an option for .TiBKP files.
Any hints?
Hello all,
I've recently rooted my sk17i and removed some stock apps using Terminal Emulator and it worked perfect for me.
But I still have two apps that I want to remove but I am not able to find thier .apk name:
1. Games by PopCap
2. Games & apps
Any one know which .apk s to remove ??
Thanks
Install an app that gives you ability to view system files and folder (Root Explorer or ES File Explorer), navigate to system/app folder using one of the aftermentioned apps, and there will you find apps you want to delete.
Edit: I don't know their correct names, but you will be able to reckognize them by icon.
Use Titanium Backup and you will find it quite fast.

Thank you Deyo
I tried that before but didn't work
now I installed Root Uninstaller and could remove those apps
How come?, as I used those two app for the same reason as you - deleting unwanted apps, and there were no problem.

Titanium Backup shows ALL apps(system and user) installed on your phone by their name, allows you to backup and restore them with userdata and lots of other stuff. Check it out, it is actually a must-have root app.
Again, I searched but cannot seem to find this...
Well, I was trying to remove stock apps after I rooted my phone, I used to use Absolute System to do so(with my old samsung fit), but now I cannot seem remove stock apps, at all... most problem is with ASTRO FILE MANAGER, i cannot seem to remove it, AT ALL...

Titanium Backup, ROM Toolbox, System Cleanup ( you can find it here on XDA or Play Store) or using a Root Explorer - delete the apk files

So i should just directly delete the apk from the /system/app folder?
You should backup the folder on sdcard first

Titanium backup is probably the easiest way to do it.
