hi guys can you suggest to an app or something to backup apps before changing rom. it's a hassle to install all apps all over again after flashing a new rom. anything but TB.
Titanium Backup. You can even create a flashable zip file.

If I install a custom rom and then want to restore my apps and programs from my backup I made of my stock vibrant, can I just restore the data file from clockworks backup?.... or would that mess up my rom?

clockwork backs up your rom so if you restore that it'll just restore whatever rom you did the back up on
you need to use titanium backup or a similar app to backup and restore apps

ok but clockwork has an advanced restore which will let you restore just you data. I didn't know if I could just restore that data to a new rom?

You could restore this way, but you very well could have a lot of bugs and issues from this.

Hi everybody!
I was wondering if there is a way to install in "batch mode" apps from the market. Since I change rom very often, it takes me a lot of time to install over 200 apps, one by one, from the market every time.
Thanks everybody.

Why don't you use Titanium Backup? You can just use the Batch option to backup and then restore all your apps with data. (you should have the pro version for this). You don't have to depend on the Market (or the Play store) for restoring the apps. Titanium Backup even restores the apps with the market links. Couldn't live without it.
Ok thank you for fast reply.... I already bought titanium pro but if I restore the apps from titanium, will they updated from the market? Or what happen with the purchased apps? Thanks you for your help!

Titanium Backup Pro not only backups up your apps and data, but it also backs up 'market links'. So after restoring your apps, your market app will recognize the installed apps and you can update the apps in the future when you get any updates. And it will also work with purchased apps, so don't worry.
My silly method for new roms .
Update apps on the market .
Update the Titanium Pro backup .
Do a Nandroid backup .
New rom .
Restore apps from TB .
Nandroid in reserve in case you want to go back to old rom .

Wow! Perfect!
Now last question: i heard that somebody suggest to restore only the apps and not the data, because it can creates some problem for mixing old data with the new system. Is it true or i can go on in this way?

You can restore Apps+Data for all your apps. No problem. But do NOT restore with Data for any system app coz your new ROM will have different system data. You don't have to worry about normal apps though.

Try with Titanium Backup....here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&hl=it
PRESS TNX BUTTON IF I HELP YOU :good:
Yeah use Titanium Back Up as mentioned in the post above.
Once u open TB, on the top right of the screen u will see a tick within a box. Click on this. It will open Batch Backup/Restore options.
Click on Backup all user apps before flashing a new ROM.
once u have flashed a new rom, click on Restore missing apps with data.
Titanium backup
Ultimate Backup
App2Zip - You choose the apps you want and it puts them in a flashable zip on your SD card or internal storage. When you install your new ROM, just install the flashable zip and you have your apps back. Only thing is, it doesn't save the app data with it
AppExtractor - You can extract and install apps AND/OR app data from CWM recovery backups. You can also restore WiFi info, Bluetooth settings, contacts n I think a couple of other things.
All in the market.

So which app can I use to backup my apps and data, so that when I install new ROM, I just restore that backup and I dont have to sign in in every one of my apps.

Titanium Backup is the best one.
+1 for TiBu
There's also Helium or you can backup through ADB if you want.
I use to flash new Roms every time. But then everytime I have to install the basic apps again from playstore .
To avoid this reinstalling , I made titanium backup of apps and I restore apps on different Roms from titanium backup app. But here problem is I have to root the rom to use titanium backup on every rom.
I just want to ask , how can I make a flashable zip of some important apps so that with new rom flashing I can flash this all zip too....so that apps get installed without root.
And as flashing from twrp install gapps in system partition ...so can i install apps in data partition from twrp recovery ?
Use nandroid Backup

Look carefully there is an option for making flashable zips for backup in Titanium backup itself so just find it and use it but i would suggest to try and check it first because it doesn't always work so try it first before fully relying on it.

Yes I tried it too and it is not working for me. There is option of making update.zip from titanium backup. But when I flash thi zip from twrp,nothing happens. No app gets installed .

There is an app in playstore app2zip or something developer @jrummy
please try that too and report back .
First make backup of all apps in titanium with data. Then just tap on "tickmark" button on top-right corner. Here find "Recovery Mode" and Run recovery mode with desire apps with data. Name it whatever you like.
Now Go to twrp and flash that "Recovery.zip" file that you created in flashing zip. Restart phone after 1-2 times to make it stable. (you will probably can get app crash frequently by flashing zip"
But I think in this method too you need installed titanium backup for "app-data" installation. (All apps will installed without titanium backup but you need TB for data installation)

I think miui has better options for local backup which u will not find in custom roms. I hope our devs should have included this in custom roms.
If i remember There are 2 options in miui
1-User settings
2-Apps and data
If u moving from one from custom rom to another then its always better to backup and restore only "apps and data".. Never restore" User settings". Coz restoring user settings brings bugs and crashes. Coz different custom roms got diffrent tree.
Make sure if u backup using titanium then never backup user settings. Only backup apps and data.
