Having trouble restoring System App: NFC.APK
I intend to swap between two different NFC.APK using Titanium Backup
The original NFC.APK is from ROM LK4
The Modified NFC.APK is from ROM LK3
1.) In Titanium Backup, backup the Original NFC.APK
2.) In Root Explorer, Replace the Original NFC.APK with the Modified NFC.APK, -REBOOT Device
3.) In Titanium Backup, Backup the Modified NFC.APK
4.) In Titanium Backup, Restore the original NFC.APK
Results: Nothing happens, Titanium Backup says restore succeeded. But the modified NFC.APK is still there.
Why doesn't restore work?
Options selected:
-USB Debugging
make sure you've enabled backing up system apks
Yep it's enabled

and it asks you whether to restore the app or data?
try converting it to a user app and restoring, then converting it back
Yes, those data/apk options were presented.
You might be right, Might needed to convert to user app for it to work.

Hi
I am about to install Villain rom 2.1 onto my GS2. As per instructions, I have backed up using the app that got installed by the cf root called CWM.
I would lose all my setting etc when I install the rom right? If I want to get it back while keeping the villain rom do i restore from CWM. And will this keep the root and the custom rom.??
Thanks. Please help. ASAP
Yes you will lose your settings, and app data, if you want to save it, use titanium backup and backup user Apps and data.
You can restore anything in white or green, but items in red will most likely cause problems
The backup you made is a nandroid backup which if you restore you will restore your whole old rom.
As far as root, cf root will auto root, and villainrom is rooted so you can just install the superuser app from the market.

You mean on the homescreens etc? Depending on the launcher, you can try backing up twlauncher and restoring it after you flash, but it may not work, so take a nandroid backup before you try.

i forgot to perma temp root and backup all of my apks and apk data. My question is, what is the best way to restore my stock backup and backup my apks and data? or is this possible?
Unless you made a nandroid of your previous ROM you can't go back. If you had "Backup My Settings" checked in Settings>Privacy, your apps usually restore automatically, but not the data. I've always used TitaniumBackup to backup and restore my apps and data, but there are other apps out there.

I did back it up, im not that stupid. But programs like that need root, im trying to see if i can restore my old backup and install superuser to get the permissions for my backup pro?

This makes no sense.
If you are S-OFF, all you have to do is flash the superuser app after you restore your stock backup to get root back.
That's what I was getting at if I have root I can back up all my stock app data

Probably a stupid question, but is "nandroid backup" that's required e.g. to flash Task's ROM the same as the backup I do using Titanium Backup? I noticed TB does not backup whole Tab, as it is only 2-2,5Gb in size, while on my Tab I have some 10-11Gb of storage occupied (apps, photos, movies, mp3).
Is it the same, then? If not, do I need to use some other tools to do a proper "nandroid backup"?
Titanium Backup
1. What can Titanium Backup back up ?
All the applications you have installed, included protected ones,
All the data and settings of these applications,
Most (nearly all) of your phone's settings and data.
Titanium Backup 3.8.0+ will also backup the system applications from your ROM, not just their settings and data.

A Nandroid backup is a backup of the whole system, you need to have Clockworkmod recovery installed to be able to perform a 'nandroid' backup.
You do a nandroid with ClockworkMod recovery. It's a advanced recovery instead of the stock. You can install this recovery with Rom manager from market.
This nandroid takes a snapshot of your whole system. And you can use it to go back to when the backup was made.

If you get the paid version you can send the backup to a Dropbox account. Well worth the peace of mind.
Why do JB rom cookers say do not restore apps with TB?
I have some necessary data so i have to use TB..
Is it okay if i install apps manually with Google Play and restore data only with TB?
Thanks.

Cause you might have bootloop after restoring data.
Simply you need 3 files with backup:
Contacts: .vcf
SMS: .xml
Apps: .txt (list of them)
I upgraded from ICS to JB yesterday and restored APP+Data for a few apps via TB. All of them work fine.
I didn't have any problems with TB on jb.
Upgrade your TB to the latest version.

Just make a nandroid backup and store it on your computer just in case something goes wrong. Then try to restore whatever you want. Just know that you are responsible for your device, so if you mess it up, you will have to solve it.
Ok, so i have made backup via titaniumbackup earlier. i installed few custom roms to my Samsung galaxy S3 and restored my apps succesfully to that rom. however i didnt like those roms that much so i installed the old stock rom back. this process unrooted my phone, now im running stock galaxy s3. i went to play store and downloaded titaniumbackup + the pro license which i have. i went to the app and saw there were no backups or anything, i went to my phone files and saw my titaniumbackup folder to be emty for some reason.
Now the question, after i did backup to my phone earlier, i copied titaniumbackup folder(with app files data etc) to my pc.
Is it possible to do a succesfull backup of these files if i copy the titaniumbackup folder to my phone? (apps+data are in that folder)

In order for Titanium Backup to work you'll need to re-root your phone because you mentioned you lost root when restoring the stock ROM. After you have regained root access place the contents of your previous backup into the empty Titanium Backup folder then use Titanium Backup's restore function to restore the backup you transferred from your computer to your phone.

yes you can restore you backed up apps and data,but you must be rooted,if you want easy root,you can use framaroot
Thanks guys! sorry i forgot to mention that i actually rooted my device again after i lost it. but titanium didnt recognice any backup files because there werent any in the phone because they got deleted by accident or somehow i dont know. but if i just move those files from my pc to original titaniumbackup folder i should be fine restoring my lost apps and data? thanks alot!
