Here you go!
Oh btw this will completely get you back to stock everything (what phone is like when you buy one) and will delete everything (except sd card) and will lose root. But you can always re-root using unrevoked. And you can use titanium backup to restore stuff.

hello,
despite asking a million questions about the process, i still haven't rooted, so my phone is as stock as stock gets. anyways so my girlfriend plays frozen bubble on my phone and she is at lvl 70 and she really wants to continue that even after the phone updates to froyo. so is there any way i can back the state of this particular app with all its settings and whatnot and restore it..
i dont want to save all my apps because i would much rather start customizing a clean phone, i just want to save this one app.
how do i do it?
thanks.

i just rooted and then turned S-OFF
now im about to remove some apps, then i will install titanium backup, backup this one app, and then restore the stock recovery.
Let it backup everything as it is.
You don't have to restore everything. You can use it to restore just one app if you want.
That way, if you remove the wrong thing you can restore it.
Hi,
I need advice what is-not-possible if I delete the backup file inside the folder. I am using backup apps nowadays.
These filed are very big in mega byte size.
Thank you.

If you flash a rom and something goes wrong then you will have two options to wipe and start again or restore your backed up rom and data .....useful if you like to flash custom Roms alot, or if you like to modify your phones boot,splash etc and then want to revert back

The reason it's big is because it's the backup of your stock ROM. You should NEVER delete this as you may need it in the future if something goes wrong with your handset.
It is not purely a back up of apps on the phone, it is the backup of the operating system that the phone cannot run without.
If you delete it and you brick your phone somehow, then you have small chance of getting it back again.
Nah it is not that serious, a full wipe + custom rom will restore a phone just like a nandroid backup would.

True, but what if you want to revert it back to stock in order to send it back to your carrier if you have a hardware problem that needs fixing?
Thank you for you reply. I will keep one the oldest copy.

to be on the safe side, keep a backup of your stock ROM and all of your installed ROM on your SDcard and on your PC/Portable Drive. If you upgrade your custom ROM, delete the old one on your SD to save space. Anyway its just 800MB on your stock ROM plus 400-600MB on your custom ROM
I rooted my phone with revolutionary and switched to cm7. I origanally used my backup root tosave my apps and it always worked. Now I have the app file but it wont open my back up. I tried to back up my apps in the stockromandit says I dont have root. Ive tried every app I could find in the market. There are a few I have that arent in the market anymore. Any ideas on how to save them?
titanium backup?
Did you back up with clockwork mod?

How did you backup your ROM? If you used recovery then you're up a creek without a paddle.
Titanium backup and start over. Best advice
Sent from the future of a long time ago.
I did back up in recovery. I ended up using my backup. Titanium wouldn't work. Then reopened the file with my back up root. Thanks for all the help guys. Just a newb learning the ropes.

The only app I back up is angry birds n that's just data backup. What apps do u really need to back up vs just reinstalling? I don't really see the point in backing up anything other than a game save

Your stock rom probably isn't rooted.
Restore the nandroid backup, then flash Superuser through recovery. You can find the file here: http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
You may need to install Busybox for Titanium Backup to work, but I think the developer removed the need for it. You can use a Busybox Installer from the market to install it if you need it.
Don't restore system apps or data when you restore on CM7.

Do a Nandroid first then you can do whatever you want and then always be able to safely go back.

Is this statement true?...the part about nandroid restoring the rom too
blindfusion said:
I think the main difference is that nandroid will restore everything back the way it was through recovery. With Titanium Backup, you can backup your apps+data and restore them if you flash a new ROM. So like if you upgrade to the latest version of CM6 or Liberated, you can carry your apps over. If you restore the nandroid, it will restore the old ROM too.

Nandroid makes it so that you can restore everything to the way it was before you went flash crazy.
Titanium backup is for backing up apps+data so that when you flash a new rom you don't have to take 5 million years installing and trying to remember all your apps.

+1 This. Nandroid will restore your old STOCK rom if that's what you backed up. TiBu is meant for apps+data.
Ok...I backed everything up just in case even my imei. I have yet to brick a phone but hey, you can never be too safe.
Hello everybody,
I'm thinking about to speed up my phone again as it was in the past. Those 4.2 Features are pretty poor compared to the slowness they bringing into our phone.
I was very satisfied with 4.1.2 it was like made for gnex only and not for hardwaremonster like n4.
So my question:
Is there any possibility to flash stock rom 4.1.2 and get all the data from 4.2.2 so i dont have to set up everything from scratch?
Maybe an app that sync with a cloud or something else like full backup of the settings and appsettings and so on.
And after that the system should not push the notification about new updates.
thanks

You could flash the stock image from Google.
Titanium backup could be used to backup your user data

You could try Carbon. I haven't used it myself so I can't comment on it but if I remember correctly it does not require root.

I always do nandroid backup first....no root needed, just custom recovery. Then flashing new factory image (full wipe) , copying everything back to sdcard...and finally restoring backup.
I would say root for the purposes of baking up to cloud with tibu, then flash, root, restore, unroot if you want to.
