What does Titanium Backup do with extracted apps? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I extracted an application and it's data. But now it's gone from the nandroid backup .. I assume it would copy the app out of the nandroid backup, but it looks like it cut the app out. Because now I can't find that app in the nandroid backup.
I reset the phone and need that app again.
any ideas as to where that cut out app might be ?

Get Titanium from Market, update you busybox from titanium bkp, go to backup/restore tab, press menu button and then batch. Run the batch opperation you need. Save the titanium bkp folder from your sd to pc, and you're done.

Does this really work, so just dragging the Titanium Bkp folder back in to the SD and restoring installs all the apps again?
@shotgun32 & @Vivasanti
Yes. Put the TitaniumBackup folder back on the SD card after partitioning, wiping, formatting or whatever. Install Titanium Backup again from the Market on your fresh installed ROM and then restore. If your backup included system data, you will also have the SMS and contacts restored, plus most of the system settings. Also, you can restore only the needed apps.
Guys need help here, ive successfuly installed my 1st custom rom and restored my apps from titanium backup but my restored apps are not shown in market->myapps,
I need my restored apps to be linked back in the market so that I can still receive notification when an app has a new update. tnx

[Q] Restore APPS and Settings from Update.zip

Hi All
I am just wondering if it is possible to Restore APPS and APP Settings from a DATA.img file using an update.zip.
I extracted the contents of a DATA.img file and used the DATA and APP directories to populate the update.zip. I removed all the android and google directories and APPS.
When I apply the update.zip some of the APPS work perfectly yet others Force Close all the time.
Am I missing something, do I need to restore some other files?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Just use titanium backup to backup ur apps, than restore ur backup easily with batch operation.
Only app or app with data, choose what you want.
And its safe.

[Q] Import SMS from a nandroid backup

If I recall correctly, there was such an app, but I can't remember its name. :S
I use - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore&feature=search_result to backup and restore SMS.
It is not related to nandroid backup still, it may be helpful.
Nope. I cannot delete my current ROM to restore the nandroid. So, anyone can help?
Edit: I FOUND IT! https://market.android.com/details?id=com.handyandy.appextractor
For anyone that needs it. DD
Good find. This may come in handy in the future.
I also use SMS backup & restore, apn backup & restore, bookmark backup & restore, call logs backup & restore as well as titanium backup from the market.
This will help when I forget to backup one of them and only have a cwm backup.

[Q] Game Data Backup

I'm having a problem getting games to work after the data folder is manually copied into sdcard/Android/data it always says it needs to download them by wifi even though I'm putting the exact same files in there that its downloading down to the last byte, I even copied then deleted the files they downloaded through wifi and then copied them back in and the game doesn't work.
Anyone can tell me whats going on here this doesn't make sense to me I can't backup my games!
Would probably be better if you backed up the Game app and data using Titanium Backup or My Backup. Then you can restore them intact.

I could try that but Titanium Backup has hung for me before trying to backup Shadowgun so it might not work for all games, I'd really like to understand why removing and copying back the game data breaks the game, it would be great if I could just keep the files safe on my PC.

I've used Titanium Backup to backup the data of several games (Let's Golf 3 for example with 1Gb of aditional data) and when reinstalling the ROM the game worked without problems or saying to redownload the data.
The main issue with backing up just the /sdcard folder of the aditional data is that the app probably has some variable saved saying if the aditional data has been saved or not, so maybe if you only save the /sdcard folder and reinstall the app from the market, as it doesn't have its original data will prompt you to redownload the aditional data.
I would suggest you try the following:
1) Backup the app from Titanium Backup (app+data). This does a backup of the app you download from Market, not the aditional data.
2) If you're gonna format /sdcard partition, save the aditional data in your PC or an external device to be able to restore it. Just do a copy/paste.
3) Once resintalled the ROM or whatever you're doing, restore first the /sdcard folder saved in step 2.
4) Restore the app from Titanium Backup, select restore app+data.
5) Run the app and it shouldn't ask to redownload the data.
If you're still having problems, please post which app is the one you're trying to restore.
For some reason titanium backup doesn't work for me, it will backup successfully but won't restore the apps.
My Backup pro restores the apps correctly but any downloaded data isn't for some reason. Some help would be great.

[Q] Corrupted Titanium Backup. How can I restore my apps?

I just flashed a new ROM on my phone but when I tried to restore my apps with Titanium, only 1 app is showing. A few days ago I had also made a copy of the Titanium Backup folder in my computer but I don't know how to (if) I can restore my apps with only the folder.
Any help?
Did you get some kind of error message? Did you reboot? Maybe the apps are there but just not showing up in your app drawer?
To use the backup on your computer just copy the data back on to your phone then restore them. Since the backup on your phone is bad I would delete everything in the backup folder then copy the data from the backup folder on your computer into the same directory so you don't need to change the backup folder settings in TiBU.
Hi. I did try that. I tried using both folders from my phone, but even though they're both the same size (about 1GB), only one app was restore. And even the data for that app wasn't. I tried using Restore>Restore apps+data. So I wanted to know if there was another way.

Instead of doing a batch restore try to manually restore an individual app and see if that works.
Check your titanium backup location. It probably changed after the rom install.
