First, You should read the complete op of cm thread carefully.
You better download the latest build and flash.
Gapps should be flashed right after the cm before restart.

Regarding backup, I personally don't recommend using device manufacturer's native backup software as it may not work on other custom os like cm, so I suggest you use another third-party backup and restore software available on Google play which may work on almost every variants of os.
The one I use is "sms backup & restore"

I also use SMS Backup & Restore and have been for a long time. It works well and keeps your messages in an XML that you can leave on the SD card or back up to a cloud service. For apps, I generally don't recommend restoring their data across ROMs (particularly going between stock and custom) but Titanium Backup or the App Manager within Rom Toolbox should do the job just fine.

I cannot get titanium backup pro key so i cannot restore my backup from it

[Q] What does Titanium Backup classify as "system apps"?

Can someone explain this to me? I've done a search and read through the Titanium Backup FAQ and guide and am still a little unclear
I currently have ver. 1.0 of a ROM on my phone. I use Titanium Backup to do a full backup.
I do a clean wipe and install ver. 1.5 of a ROM on my phone. If I use Titanium Backup and do a full restore of "missing apps + system apps+, will Titanium Backup overwrite any changes that were made between v1.0 and v1.5 of the ROM?
Should I be doing a missing app restore on the clean ROM and then just manually configuring all the other system settings / homescreens? If that's the case, is there any way to specifically backup the homescreen configuration? I'd like to do a clean wipe between all ROM installs, but sometimes it's a PITA to set up all the folders and homescreens again.
Thanks!
don't restore system apps. system apps reside in /system/app and usually are replaced only when you flash a rom. so you could overwrite rom updates with an older version.
Any suggestions for backing up homescreen configurations without having to switch to an aftermarket launcher?

What's the name of the application that holds the data? I can't find any app listed under "desktop" in Titanium Backup. Am I missing something?

Thanks...added that one too. It never bothered me too much not having those on a new wipe, but now that I know how to do it, I'll keep them all.

any tips for setting up phone

sorry for the noob question, tried to search, couldn't find anything related.
i've been trying out the different roms to see which one i like. Is there any tips, process or app to use to speed up setting phone, like configuring your emails, contacts, etc...
thanks
Backup your user apps with titanium backup, then do a batch restore user apps. I use gosms to backup my messages.
Also if you use nova or apex launcher then do a backup with those apps.
All of my contacts are merged with Google so when i sync my gmail account all my contacts are already on my phone.
Hope this helps, happy flashing!

the only things that can be setup to speed up the configuring process is in the sms/call log/apps backup restores. You don't want data restoring going from rom to rom, and I've yet to find an app that will restore widgets to the pages that you had them previously.
sms backup and restore= sms/mms backup
call log backup and restore= call log list
my backup or titanium backup= apps backup
I know it's not much but to maintain the way your homescreens are setup from rom to rom would require you maintain your data intact and that will give you nothing but issues/bugs, because data from a rom won't behave correctly in the next, this is why all roms suggest a full wipe before a flash.

Nandroid Backup on Custom ROM

Hi
I am running Rootbox 2.9 which has android 4.1.2 but I can not make a Nandroid backup.
It runs the process of backing up but then in the end it says,
No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext.
Generating md5 sum...
Error while generating md5 sum!
and it stops there.
What should I do. any ideas ?
This has been asked & answered 9,871,450,098,672,149 times in the 14 mths I've been coming here. Search.
I can't see how is that true. I tried searching for "Nandroid backup" or "CWM backup" but cannot find any thread with the same problem. Most of the threads are people asking to backup their stock rom's before trying a Custom Rom.
I am asking for the opposite. If you know the answer please let me know.
As I was saying... (I get the sneaking suspicion you can't be bothered reading/doing a bit of work. Funny bout that eh ?)
I never knew how to search like that. I used the search tool here on XDA. Anyway it seems that the way you searched via Google puts the results from all over the XDA forum and not only on Galaxy s2 section.
Anyway in the meantime I tried backuping with an app called Online Nandroid Backup found on Play Store. It did the whole process but not sure it is right. here is a screenshot inside the backup folder... I'd appreciate if someone can confirm this backup contanis all the required files to be a succesful backup

HELP! Missing Live wallpaper selector !

Hi guyz , i rooted my galaxy s3 and i installed an app wich helped me to delete few sys apps , after i deleted some sys apps it's much smoother but ... i can't set any kind of live wallpaper because i don't have the live wallpaper selector , i don't want to loose my apps and my files , so don't tell me to flash it again , i want just the live wallpaper selector , i use XXELLA FW europe version , thanks in addvance
If you didn't take a backup first, then all you can do us flash again. You wont lose anything but still, take a nandroid backup first and titanium.
I'd recommend flashing wanam lite as a touchwiz rom. You'll get all the things you NEED and none of the crap you don't
...
You could even download a rom and extract it from there....

I should have listened to lookout scanner and blocked this program. But, ignoring that and installing the apk later that day is when I noticed LWP picker and all apps 'unfortunately' quit working. For whatever reason, Titanium Backup had the app 'Live Wallpaper Picker' froze after a few hours of searching. So, if this helps anyone stumped as to why the setting is all of a sudden gone, Your welcome.

Lost my root

i recently decided to install a new LP rom on my galaxy s2. i was previously running the unofficial cm12. but before wiping the whole phonei decided to do a little internal sd cleanup, which led me to deleting most files (some that were important). i then successfully installed the new rom without any problems. Once the phone booted up and i tried to run titanium backup to restore my data it didn't detect root on my phone. so i have lost root and need help getting it back. any ideas?
Previous rom: [ROM][5.0.2][I9100] CyanogenMod 12 by Lysergic Acid
Current rom: Resurrection Remix by varund7726
PS: i know i am a giant noob at this so save the instults pls
thank you

You didn't loose root, you just haven't activated it. You can do so by going to developer options and enable root access for apps and adb.

Your recovery version is too old. You need recovery version 6.0.4.7 and higher. Download newer CWM version here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9100/
