[Q] A strange bug in Titanium Backup - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I installed Titanium Backup yesterday and when i backup my apps, it creates a file TitaniumBackup (with no extension) instead of a directory with the backup inside. The file is only 4 ko. To make it works i must delete the file and create the folder manually. Anybody else got this issue?
Thanks

[Q] Titanim backup - how to resore an app from .TiBkp

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

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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?

[Q] Recover apps from TWRP backup using TitaniumBackup does not work

When I try to recover my apps using Titanium Backup's "Extract from Nandroid" feature, it says "Could not find any data in this TWRP backup"
The files in my TWRP backup folder are
data.ext4.win000
data.ext4.win001
data.ext4.win002
md5 for the above
recover.log
Any help would be appreciated
Yup, same problem here. Im on a Galaxy Nexus running XenonHD and TWRP.
I've tried unpacking them on my pc, so i could use an emulator and run my phone through there.
That kinda works, and using Titanium Backup, it seems to extract it without an error. But afterwards, the app is very glitchy.
Im guessing Titanium Backup doesnt really do well on TWRP as i had no problems using clockworkmod.
I'm experiencing the same problem running Marshmallow trying to restore apps from a TWRP backup (Galaxy S4). At first, Titanium backup just refused to even see the backup files (although it accepts the containing folder as a backup location). Once it finally and magically accepted to see the backups it now tells me that it cant find any data in them...
Has anyone solved this yet?

Titanium Backup ".txt files"

Hello guys!
I don't know if anyone figured this out before..
Today I was trying to restore my applications normally like every time.. moved the backup to TitaniumBackup folder and so on.. But the problem is the application is not detecting any backup! I tried to guide it to the backup folder but is shows nothing.. I searched the whole web for a solution and can't find a way to fix it.
I figured out that TB depends on 3 files (.apk.gz / .tar.gz / .properties).. and the major problem is in my backup folder the (.properties) file is converted to (.txt) file, how and why? I don't know. I tried to change the extension to (.properties) but it didn't work.
Anyone faced this problem?? Or anyone found a solution??
Thanks
Same problem.
Ciao

help with Titanium Backup?

hello! I've been using titanium backup all this while, whenever I flash a new ROM, but I recently did a batch backup of all the apps+system apps with their data (total size around 1.5gb) and then after flashing the ROM I open titanium backup to restore it, and It recognizes none of them!
please note that,
I have all my backups in the backup location, there are no permission issues as I can create new folders while making backup, I tried clearing data, uninstalling, installing a different one...
PS: I tried making another backup of an app in the new ROM and when I try to restore the backups it shows only 1 backup found where as the folder has 1.5gb of older backups which are not being recognized?
Open the Preferences and search for the backup folder location. Also, don't restore system apps / data. Typically a bad idea.
doesn't work... it just shows 0 backups found...
I've had this happen once or twice before, I believe this is what I did:
Go to preferences, then backup folder location.
Click the line of text that talks about file system.
Select document provider.
Click the menu button and click show internal storage.
Navigate to the PARENT folder of your Titanium folder, not the Titanium folder itself. Select it...it will then say you have permission to view it and go back to the familair TiBU folder selection screen.
Then select your Titanium folder. Press back to reload then proceed as usual.
don't you try to root it again?? or did you try to check it again in your storage, if the file is missing?
The root access works just fine... And I have 3 files for each backup ( 2 compressed files and 1 text)
