I backed up all my apps using Titanium Backup, then went ahead and flashed CM7, yet once I got it to run, I tried to restore the backups, so I went to titanium backup and tried to restore them, yet my apps weren't there. I think it's something about the Titanium Backup I was using on CM7 using the wrong storage, i.e. Internal rather than external or vice-versa. I restored the backup and went back to stock asap, as I would hate to lose all my apps and data, but I would like to give CM7 a try. How can I do this?

Wrong forum supposed to be in q&a and there should be a setting in titanium back up to change the back up location

Go to Settings-->CyanogenMod Settings-->Application, Then tick the "Use Internal Storage. Reboot Then try it.
Most on this forum aren't as nice as I am when a topic has been so thoroughly covered in the past. Please do a search before posting a question.
Thanks
I'm no genius, but I think the proper place for this would be the atrix-dev-team's Project page for the development of CyanogenMod rom - as they have their own issue reporting system hosted via google code found here:
https://code.google.com/p/atrix-dev-team/issues/list
Again, I'm in no way a genius, but this is where I would think that you would have the best visibility and chance to get this resolved/answered by a developer on the atrix-dev-team.
If anyone else has an answer, feel free to help!
Edit: Looks like someone already provided a suggestion!
It is something with the naming of the storages in CM7. Probably the titanium is looking for the backup folder in the wrong storage type.
Possible solution for that (Works for me...):
In the first screen in titanium backup press MENU>Preferences>Backup folder location>Press the Detect button, choose "Whole device" then the program will scan all your storages and if it finds an other backup folder it will tell you as well as the amount of backups in each folder, choose the one with the highest number of backups, this will probably be the one you are looking for.
Once you chose the correct folder press "Use the current folder".
Hope this helps you
This is not an issue folks. TiBu IS looking in the wrong place.
Do as was previously mentioned, then instead of scanning the whole device which can take forever, manually locate the backup folder. Mine is always set to A folder called Titanium Backup on my external SDCard. Easy to find.
And don't attempt to restore any system data.
If everyone would quit worry where one post & just help person this be better form..
In Titanium Backup when running Cyanogenmod look under ..
Menu
Preferences
Backup Folder location
Click "Detect"
Then it should give "Option: to search "Whole Device" on phone then when it fines Backup.
Click "Use Current Folder"
Also you can change setting in Cyanogen Setting to just use internal...
Thread moved to proper forum.
I've got TB pro, so i did a batch backup and decided before i flash any new roms again, that TB is working.
Backing up completes fine.
But it won't restore apps.
I updated to the latest TB pro, cleared my data and set app processing mode to AUTO, Indirect, but that didn't help either.
Any solutions?
Maybe TB can´t find the path for the backup? That happened to me when I flashed an ICS rom that changes the path of both internal and external SD.
I cant imagine how, i havent changed roms at all!
I literally just batch backed up all my apps, then uninstalled two apps and tried restore them but neither would restore
Got the same problem for a long time now..... Tried everything
If u made a zip file then extract it nomrally and install the apps
next time use nandroid backup.
Dont forget hitting thanks......
Has anyone ever had this issue with the S5? I downloaded an update for Facebook yesterday that I can swear was a virus. That update wanted to take over my phone. I was on the latest firmware installed via mobile odin. I had Link2SD, XSPOSE, XPRIVACY, Titanium Backup, XStorage, and BusyBox installed. I don't know what happened. Facebook kept telling me that I needed more storage to operate it. Can anyone help with this issue?
Did you restore from a backup right before this happened? Or rather, did you use Titanium Backup to restore your apps right before this happened?

This sometimes happens to me when I install a new rom and then use titanium to restore all my apps. I have pro, so I have the ability to change the id to what my previous id was. If you don't have pro, I'm pretty sure that you can't restore it. If I were you, I'd donate. It's a great app that I use daily.
Good luck.
Can anyone recommend a system backup/restore app that I can use to save my apps and settings, then later restore them to a new phone? I tried Helium last time but when I tried to restore my backup it told me that my backup file was invalid, so I'd like to try something more reliable this time!
I'm running stock Android 7, not rooted.
Titanium Backup (paid version) is what I've been using for years since it backs up to the external SD - plus I use the regular Google sync to backup my settings etc. That way I'm back online pretty fast after flashing a new rom

Unfortunately I'm not rooted so can't use Titanium Backup
Hey All,
What is everyone using to backup apps/data on android 10?
I have used Titanium Backup pro since android 2.2 and have sort of become lost now that it really just doesn't restore like it used too (Batch backup/restore all apps). It will just hang/fail after 1 app each time. No real updates from devs. I emailed them with a detailed request which appears to have gone no where.
I am cool to use command line, mod or whatever I just want something that actually works to backup/restore of just apps/data.
I still frequently update/clean flash and want to easily restore all my apps/data.
Cheers
