Nandroid backup without CWM? - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

Hi, I have a Galaxy Player 4.2, and there isn't CWM yet for it. So I need to do a backup to do some tweaks. Anyway, I tried something called Onandroid which you don't need CWM for to backup, but it's not compatible with my device. I need a way to do a Nandroid to do a backup, any ideas?

Maybe you could pull your /system lib via ADB

Applications on SD?

If I have some games that I moved to my SD-Card, and I install a new rom, cleaning data/cache, will the games still be accessible?
No, it will not work.

So, they will just get deleted?

i thought if the phone was rooted and backed up using titanium backup that you could restore all your apps+data

It can be restored via my backup root or titanium backup (I use backup root before). But for his problem, his system file is deleted, only apps are in sd. Unless you fully backup via backup root, then it will work after it restored

*sigh* You're wrong, again.
Titanium backup is free, and probably better than everything else.
It has a paid extension which adds stuff like hypershell and synching.
i would recommend you use ASTRO file manager and create a backup of apps and games on SD card. After flashing new ROM, you just need to reinstall apps and games from your SD card backup data.
To know how to create backup data and download Astro file manager checkout this link http://goo.gl/29ykK

[Q] Installing new ROM and keeping old files

I know about Titanium, just to start with.
My question is about backup files using CWM, if I install a new rom and restore my system/cache/data will the phone work normally after that?
My main goal is to keep my installed apps as they are on the new ROM, so i guess data is the only thing i need to backup by right?
Thanks in advance!
Backup system + data using titanium backup.
Also backup current rom using cwm incase anything goes wrong while flashing new rom.
After u instal new rom instal titanium backup and restore.

Can you word the question differently?
I have never zipped my file. i just use the restore option from CWM.

Just boot into cwm and go to restore.
Correct, you don't need to do anything extra to nandroid backups, they are formatted to just be used as is.

Titanium backup problem

I'm having a problem trying to access my titaniumbackup after going back using my nandroid backup. My nandroid backup is rooted and unlocked. ...but yet my titanium backup app isn't showing on my device?

Are you sure you had it installed when you did your backup? Just download it again from play store
I did and plastered says its installed
The screenshots the pro
I downloaded the basic version and its working
Strange?
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
The app from your screenshot is just a Key to unlock a pro version of an app. You need an actual app for this to work. After installing the basic version it was unlocked by the key into the pro version.
If you came back from an AOSP rom, look in /0 for a TitaniumBackup folder, which will have anything that you backed up while on the AOSP rom.
