Can Titaniumbackup work on CM - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I start titanium backup it says it might night work properly without SuperSU. Cyangoenmod comes with it's own root manager that's not SuperSU and it can't be turned off.
Backups fail in Titaniumbackup and they say there's not enough space (which isn't true). Can this be fixed? Do other people have this problem? What do people use for backups under CM 12.1?

Never could try but it should work. Here is an example with Dead Trigger 2. To know what is the package name of your game go to Settings > Apps > All > Select your app and you will see it.
Go to /data/app and search for the right package name. The one of Dead Trigger 2 is com.madfingergames.deadtrigger2.
The file you have to copy/paste to your 2nd device (same directory of course) is com.madfingergames.deadtrigger2-1.apk.
This is a manual method but you can do it through a 3rd party app like Helium.
Backup app data:

Hi there, there are many apps on the market you can use to backup apps/games + data ( I use Titanium Backup), it's very easy to use you just install it and find the games you want to backup and it will automaticlly backup it's data and progress.
You should install the app on both devices and then send the files from "Titanium Backup" folder to the other phone and RESTORE the game (the game's progress will be automaticlly restored).
That should do it. Enjoy.

Helium doesn't need root. You can backup into your internal storage or in the Cloud.

[Q] Apps from S4 to S5

Changing phones and what to transfer the apps that I like on the S4 to the S5.
Are there any compatibility issues that I should be aware of while doing this.
Since I am currently on KK 4.4.4 with the S4, my plan is to copy my none system apps to the S5?
Anyone having any problems in doing this?
These are both Samsung phones and the only real difference is going from Sprint to TMO. My current phone is rooted and has a custom ROM. I do plan to root the S5 immediately and install CWM Recovery.

Using Titanium Backup has no issues. Came from S4 like you.

Worked great.

Just to confirm, I can just install my apps from my last TB backup after I root the S5?

Usually. It's not guaranteed or foolproof, but it will work with most apps. The best path is of course reinstalling apps. But many people find it easier to transplant them as you are planning to and it usually works.

Only app that gave me an issue was Viper4Android because it restored the data and thought that the drivers were installed when they weren't, so repeatedly forced closed. But yeah just let TiB do its thing. You may encounter some apps force closing but a clear data usually fixes it. User apps aren't that big a problem when switching devices.
Thanks to all for the help, made the move with TB and all went well.
I use Shareit
This thread got me thinking, why doesn't android have a more native non root method for making and restoring backups with app data?

When you go to themes customization in miui 7, select the option where you can change lockstyle, lockscreen separately (2nd option from the right).
And If I remember correctly, down there should be a button for backuping your current theme. All other (downloaded) themes won't be wiped as long as you don't wipe your internal storage.
Btw, miui 7 themes don't work too well with miui 8.

Thanks, while updating it asks whether you want to erase data so I think this is going to wipe out all user data. Though can you tell me if there is any way if I can backup all themes in my pc?

You just copy the miui folder that is in your internal storage.
If you're using the updater app then it will only wipe user data, not internal and external storage.

Mokiee NIGHTLY Rom - Update file Corrupted Error...

Hello
I installed MK71.2-le_x2-201710060929-NIGHTLY rom to my Le Max 2 phone.
Clock is not opening and zoom option is not working on camera. I have 2 bugs but these are not imported for me right now.
I saw a update notification on my phone at Saturday night and I downloaded it. But I can not install this update package (MK71.2-le_x2-201710070930-NIGHTLY.zip - 647MB)
I saw second update information next day. But I can not install second update package again (MK71.2-le_x2-201710081057-NIGHTLY.zip - 647MB)
Phone is restarting and "File Corrupted" error appears.
Should I install whole package (647MB) ?
I want to install only updates and corrections.
How can I do this process?
I tried in Recovery mode or Fastboot mode but I failed. I got always "File Corrupted" error.
Please help me about this problem

Maybe you changed some system files. Anyway just download the rom from official website and try to flash it after wiping the dalvik and cache. Also if that still doesnt then do a clean flash by wiping data, system and cache. This should solve your problem

Dont wipe internal storage, clean install means wipe everything except storage and usb option. Yes you will lose your apps, but all the other files like pics, videos and music will stay. If that is also a problem for you then download es file manager, open it you will see apps option. Click on apps then select all your apps and then you will see a backup option, choose the backup option. All of your apps' apk files will be created in your storage which will be inside the folder named backups. So free your mind and do it. Its better to lose some data rather than having a problematic device. Best of luck, i wish clean install solves your previous problems with mokee

Ota updates are about just installing the changes, not the whole rom again. Usually, custom roms are updated through a dirty flash where you don't wipe data. But if you start getting stuff corrupted or not working properly, a clean flash in recommended. It should be just this time when you need to use titanium backup. I think you can make a zip with all the apps and just flash it. Tho always have a backup of your rom

I think I can apply only updates with OTA zip file.
Should I copy to the root and flash from TWRP this file.
AM I right?
Thanks for titanium backup suggestion. I will try that.

Yup using titanium backup saves so much of time. Can you guys make me remember that which custom rom doesnt has inbuilt root cause then i wouldnt suggest the es file to other rom users.

Yeah you're right. You were also talking about some 600+ MB zip files. You can download them from their site and install through twrp. Anytime you install something it's recommended that you wipe Cache and Dalvik cache. You won't lose anything if you wipe just this. Just remember to make a backup

Yes but magisk is still root. I do remember that there is a rom which doesnt has root, you have to flash another root zip or magisk zip to activate root in it

Backup without rooting or hacking?

Other than the TeamWin or TWRP how can I backup my system settings, software, apps and such. I don't want to root as it will void the warranty with Verizon and Samsung.
Helium (previously known as Carbon) in the App store. It needs to be authorized via USB.
Good luck getting Helium to work. I spent days struggling with it, and could get a partial backup about 1 time in 10. And the developer provides zero support.
Super Backup Pro can backup your apps and other things, you can also use Samsung Backup to do that.

But not app data (without Root).
FYI, Helium works fine for me on all the devices I've recently used: Sprint Galaxy Note 3 (flashed to AOKP 7.1.2 Nougat), Unlocked 910C Galaxy Note 4 (both stock ROM & LOS 7
1.2), Unlocked GS7E, Unlocked GS8+ (Nougat, Oreo beta), and Unlocked GS9+ (Oreo).

All app data is stored in "Android" folder on the root of your internet or external storage.
how did you guys manage to get helium to work? It just refuses to work for me I activate it from the pc and the min i close the app and start it again it asks for activation again. I contacted the developer but got no response from him.
