Bit of a strange one, but MBP didn't restore all the app's I backed up.
I was running Pinkies 1.8 ROM, but wanted to give Neo's 7.6.1 ROM a try, so backed everything up with MBP and flashed the new ROM.
Out of 37 apps, only about 7 showed up in the porgrams list.
So I thought it might be an issue with the ROM, so flashed back to the 1.8 ROM using the original ROM Image I used to first install it. Same situation.
I'm sure I've used it to install all the apps before, am I doing something wrong?

Running DC 3.1.2 and a netarchy's 5 pt multi touch/fps fix kernel, Paid version of titanium backup.
I've fixed permissions
verified backups
installed app, apps + data, apps + system data
When i attempt to restore any app i've backed up on the sd card via titanium backup it wont restore them. It goes through, acts like it installed but when i reboot the phone and do the above mentioned things it just doesnt show up...
I should mentioned i came from stock rooted EVO 4G 1.3x ROM
Anyone ever heard of this problem before?
bump, anyone?
ANother thing its now doing is i was able to get the apps to show up in market, however they show as installed... until i click on the app then it asks me to install it.
Friggin weird.
anyone at all?
That's a weird one. I've been using Titanium quite a bit lately with no problems. You might just have to wipe and start over. Have you tried uninstalling / reinstalling Titanium? Its also possible there's a problem with your SD card. Do you have another one you could test with?
Did you go into settings / applications and put a check in the unknown sources box?
.....
Frank...
yes unknown sources is checked.
SD card as far as i know has no problems, ill try with a new one.
Thanks for the info.
im having the same problem. i have unknown sources checked, reflashed a couple times, and have even re-rooted. it works perfectly in both fresh and OMJ, but DC just fails. if you install the apps manually and then do a restore of app+data, it will restore the data properly, but it fails when you try to install from the backup.

Same problem here...Fresh, Calkulin's EviO, Baked Snack, and Toasted Delight ROMs have all been able to restore just fine using Titanium Backup.
It's too bad...I really wanted to try DCs ROM, but I'm not gonna go through installing all my missing apps and setting up all the screens again.
Has anyone found a way to fix this yet?

Just make a nandroid backup, wipe, and try out DC 3.2.3 yourself. 99% chance everything will be fine.

The problem isn't loading the ROM. I'm able to install DC after doing a full wipe...it seems to be the only ROM that causes problem when trying to do a full Titanium Backup restore.
Okay, I just flashed MIUI 11.5? Anyways it's the stable version. And I'm trying to restore the apps thAt I backed up previously on cm6. I can back up my data just fine. But I restore my apps and reboot, everything is gone. All of the pre installed apps that come with the rom everything. Also, when I try to do a MIUI backup, the same exact thing happens. I did the original app and data back ups using my back up pro. It's worked all other times thAt I've flashed a new rom. Sorry if this a noob question. I'm new to this stuff.
Using evo 4g
re_flash the rom wipe everything might have corrupt data from backup
also try here

i think i just figured it out. all the apps were under one icon.
Nevermind, it was just the stock apps that come with it. None of my downloads.
I am running Virtuous and it is running smooth as butter, but I would like to try one of the CM7 nighly, and want to be able to go back if need be with out hours of work. I am running clockwork recovery and rom manager, and also have titaium back up installed. Phone is rooted with s-off. Can I just run a back up from rom manager do a complete wipe and install CM7. I also need to update hboot from .79 to .92 should this be done prior to the rom manager back up. Should CM7 not work out how do I restore back? Thanks
Yeah just nandroid (which means backing up the rom and all your settings) and you can go back at any time. In Rom manager just go to Backup current Rom and you will always have a copy of your setup EXACTLY as it is.
You can update HBOOT whenever you want, it really doesn't matter when you do it. Once you do it will stay that way.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't doing a nandroid backup essentially make a complete clone of your entire phone that you can restore later?

Okay, here's what you to do back up:
1. Back up your apps with Titanium Backup - DO NOT BACK UP PHONE DATA. Backing up data for games (e.g. Angry Birds) is fine, but don't back up contacts or Gmail or anything that's going to be included in your new ROM. Reason is, when you restore everything (more on that later), you don't want to have conflicting data screwing things up.
2. Make a nandroid using ROM Manager. Just go to where it says backup current rom, and let it do it's magic. You can (and should) rename it to something you can remember. DO NOT USE SPACES. I like to name mine with the date, ROM name, and version number (e.g. 2-3-11_Virtuous_3.1.0)
3. After the backup finishes, install the new ROM - I always do this through ROM Manager.
4. When CM7 is finished installing, download Titanium Backup and restore your apps using the batch operation - it's a lot simpler than trying to find all your apps and download/install them yourself
5. To go back, simply click "Restore Backup" in ROM Manager and pick Virtuous and all your hard work will be restored
Enjoy!
I've had lots of trouble with ROM manager not restoring or backing up my current ROM properly.....it'll always say that the installation was aborted or say the file is corrupt

How much free space is left on your card? Format and try it with a clean card. I have never had a problem with it restoring anything of mine.

Am I asking for trouble when backing up apps via titium, and switching roms? I thought that I read that somewhere? I have used app brain to do the restores, but it is a little slow. Also Thanks to everyone for the replies.
I've read that the newer versions of Clockwork are troublesome....anything after 2.5.05. I just went in and erased any previous ROM's that I don't use anymore to free up valuable space on the SD card. Hopefully it works, but the message error i've been getting......well not a message error, but my phone seems to freeze up while developing MD5sum. I read to leave it alone and it might take 10 min's actually, but just want to confirm this is true. Thanks.

I've gone from Stock to Virtuous to MIUI to CyanogenMod and I can say definitively that I have never had any problems with Titanium backing up/restoring apps. You are asking for trouble if you try to back up system data and restore it for ROM's that they were never intended for - just back up the apps you downloaded from the market/installed yourself and you'll be fine
So here is what I did,
1 Did a Rom back up from Rom manager
2 Backed up user apps with Titanium Pro
3 Updated Clock Work Mod to 2.5.1.2
4 Flashed Hboot from .79 to .92
This is were ran into a problem, after hboot flashed it just went into a boot loop were all I could do is go into hboot or clock work recovery but that is it phone would not boot. I searched a little and read that hboot wipes the kernal and that is why it will not reboot. I then went into clockwork and restored the rom I backed up in step 1, and it worked like a charm. Thought I would share so any one else who runs into this. Now off to flash cm7!
Rocking CM7 now, Thanks for all the help and advice from everyone. The Android community rocks.
Hi,
I did a backup of my ROM with ROM Manager, because I wanted to try and see the new 2.3 Gingerbread Cyanogenmod7. All was fine and well, i went to backup ROM and it backed up or so I thought (-.-'). I went and copy the backup from my SD card to my computer just and just in case also made a copy of my contacts (thank god for that).
Then I installed the new C7 2.3 ROM via ROM Manager and it asked me if I want to backup the ROM (which i already did) and to wipe data/cache. I checked the wipe data/cache and went on with the boot and everything. The installation was successfull and the C7 is great, but then i wanted to go back to my Rooted HTC Sense ROM.
I went back to ROM Manager and went for recover ROMs and did a recovery. Went the phone booted all my files, applications, sms's and every little thing was deleted.
Now my question is this, how is that possible, i made a backup BEFORE checking the wipe data/cache ?
Is there a way to get my data back ?? I still have the backup on my computer.
Thanks for all the comments and help...
Hmm... you mean current message and contact is missing when you restored to 2.2?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
Yes messages, contacts and applications (for apps im not too worried).
And I've restored back to 2.1 !
I never went to froyo 2.2.
I've installed Redux and enjoyed it on my phone for over a month now. However, I see there is a newer version out. What is the best way of updating (bearing in mind I've got quite a few apps that I don't want to install)?
TIA
You can just flash the new Redux version with the Rom Manager or with the Recovery. You dont have to wipe because you're already on Redux.
Nothing would be deleted. But it's helpfull to do a nandroid backup (a nandroid backup will backup everything on your phone (Apps, Data, Settings,...)) with Rom Manager or Recovery if something goes wrong with the update.
