I deleted that via titanium backup and i made a backup of it. I want to recover the app back but i titanium just freezes when i do that. Can anyone help me get this app back on my phone?
Nandroid is your friend.
How does that help now?
Reflash the rom and learn from your mistake :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Well.....MOST are smart enough to make a Nandroid Backup before changing anything. But if you need help then I'll need to know what Rom you we're using or if it was stock..

Well im new to this stuff. The only thing i done to my phone was root it. I didn't know what nandroid was till i looked it up. My phone is stock besides the root.
Here is the phone.apk from the T-Mobile ICS ruu that I pulled from a nandroid I made before I did s-off. You can try to push it to system/app and set permissions to rw-r-r using root explorer or similar. Not sure of it will work or not. You may just want to titanium backup and restore to factor. Good luck
I assume you are on ICS, probably shouldnt use this if you are not

Been reading for 2 weeks now. Here's what I have come up with and would appreciate help. Have ADB, rooted Tbolt. Know how to work with ADB. Have Titanium Backup, have run backup all user apps and system data. Downloaded perfect storm rom. Know how to put that on.
Question is this. Before I put on the new rom.. If I want to go back to original rom do I just go to titanium backup and do a restore? OR am I missing something? Sorry for this if it's somewhere in the forums. I can't find all this in one! Thx

You do back ups and restores in the recovery system. Reboot to recovery and then navigate to backup and restore

And that takes you back to the original rom just like before you changed rom? Thx
Yes. This is a full backup (including kernel, ROM, data, etc).
How to use the recovery
Hey guys!

But mate i read on some sites that wrong titanium restoration can brick my device. That's why i 'm kinda afraid of using it.
Dude, i do not understand how someone can brick a phone using titanium backup. Maybe that guy did not gain proper superuser access, resulting in a bricked phone? Also, I think a lot of users here in xda use this app everyday, and I don't think most of them get bricked as titanium is very easy to use
Hey don't worry I am using titanium backup since a year and am not getting any problem. Yeah I admit it that some times restored apps misbehave but that is all when you play with extreme level of setting believe me and also don't forget to press thanks button

Using Titanium Backup ever since I got my first Android.............
NEver had any kind of problems. and Titanium jst restores apps it won't do anything with system as long as you haven't asked it to. So no worries abt it.....
Thanks to all of you. Now i guess i'll be using titanium backup from now on.

may be u mean the rom manager.. yep, rom manager restoration will brick our ace.. but titanium back up is safe to use..
Titanium backup is a good app too.
Titanium backup would never brick your device. I have never heard anything like that. Its upto someone who should be smart and careful enough at the time of restoring. For example, if you try to restore the system apps and data based on CM7.1 ROM to something completely different ROM, its obvious you will get trouble. But, bricking the device completely? nah....
I have unnamed ROM on my phone now. I want to jump into ICS, but I had a question regarding backups.
I have a nandroid backup, I have a MyBackup backup of all my contacts, sms, mms, apps and data, that kind of thing. I have plugged the phone into the PC and physically copied and pasted the entirety of the internal and external memory to my PC.
Is there ANYTHING else I can do to make this as painless as possible? The new ROM will undoubtedly call for a complete wipe and reinstall.
Is there any way to make a bit-by-bit image of the phone before I start, so that if I don't like it or it doesn't work, I can just go back to exactly the way it was before I started? Or am I asking too much?

That's pretty much what a NANDROID backup is as long as it doesn't get corrupted.

that's kind of what I thought, I ran it twice (one to internal one to external) just in case.
Once the phone's charged I'm off to the races I guess.
Might I suggest that you save your NANDROID backups to your computer? That would be a good precautionary step. They are under /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup or something like that.
Have you ever heard of Titanium Backup?
NVM you need nandroid haha
Careful about replacing system data from one rom to another with MyBackup! That stuff doesn't end well.

1.) Copy Nandroid back to your PC along with your Titanium Backup files.
2.) Run the MD5 file through a checker (I use QuickPar) to confirm the backup is not corrupted
3.) Backup your SMS with a market tool of your choosing
4.) Remember your settings and whatnot
5.) Make sure you have any flashable scripts you use availaable to reflash if you're using them on the new ROM.
6.) FLASH new ROM, then use Titanium Backup to install your APPS (not system stuff). Restore your texts, then flash whatever other junk you want back.
7.) ENJOY
Hi there, I'm kinda new to android and was wondering: is there a way to back up the S3 like the iPhone? Where everything gets backed up into a file and if i were to reformat my phone I can just restore it and everything will be there. Thanks. :angel:
I really like Go Backup. Never had an issue with it, even from going to stock firmware to CM9 or 10, which usually ruins titanium backups.
But the one file backup would be a nandroid, which is done through recovery.

Yes you can restore but it is not advisable..will create conflicts and FCs..Best bet is to restore all the apps with data from TB..all the apps will have their settings intact..only problem is TW launcher but if you are going to AOSP then that is not a problem...otherwise backup TWlauncher also and restore it with Data..force closes may come though..
Titanium Backup works great for me, but be careful restoring system aps.
Make a nandroid backup just in case you mess something up
With both nandroid backup and titanium backup, I feel like immortal

But i heard that installing cwm recovery, i will lose the samsung maintenance...
Is it true?
Sent from my GT-I9300
Yes that kinda of correct; rooting it voids maintenance
Titanium Backup is pretty simple, press the top right button and you get all the options, just read them carefully.
Rooting voids your warranty but it's ridiculously easy to unroot.
Best do a system backup though. I found normal CWM to be a bit flaky here with data backup, but Touch has been fine (and little reason to avoid using it really). Again, self explanatory, and will save you so much time.
To make life easier, grab an SD card. Not a must but useful for external backups, and transferring from one ROM to another. Otherwise you'll have to copy to a computer, full wipe, then put the backup folder back.
CWM Nandroid does not backup modem nor does it backup the more important EFS folder .
Titanium is used to backup apps .
