I noticed there's an option in titanium backup. My question is when I go to flash a new rom how do these get wiped or do they need to be?

Back up your apps with titanium back up and sync your contacts with google

K thanks and what about my photos?

Flashing a new ROM won't wipe your sd card so photos music etc are all safe.

As long as they are on your memory card you are safe as long as you don't choose to wipe your sd card. If on internal memory and you do a full wipe you will lose them.

full wipe does not delete your internal storage.
you would need to format EMMC to do that.
but anyways, wiping data, caches, and formatting the system does not touch any of your storage so it should be safe.
Oh and mybackup root is actually really helpful for backing up and restoring apps, it's quicker in my opinion.
I have rooted with paranoid android 2.57 utacka, and when ever I take a backup of my apps in titanium backup..... Nothing will be shown in restore menu..... So my first rooting went tragic..... I need help... So that next time I change my rom, all my backup are restored.

can you attach screenshot of backup/Restore page of titanium backup?
and have you check size of titanium backup folder?
Sir I also had taken a backup from Cwm recovery mode however as soon as I went to paranoid the restoration process showed no files present there.

You don't have any backup on device
Have you wiped device?
I think you have lost all backup when you have factory reset
It is advisable to make backup storage on ext sd card

Go to preference and then go backup location. Then click on detect and search whole device. Once located just Click on it and it will show up on the restore menu.. If you backed up on your external memory or internal memory without formatting it during the installation then it should be there.

I tried to run a backup using CWM recover 6.0.3.1 and I keep getting an error "cannot find mount point." it will backup to the internal storage but will not backup into the sd card. I have tried almost everything. Backing up to internal and moving it to sd, that takes to long. I have also tried to un mount/mount the card, move backup path, fix permission, re flash CWM. Please help! Thanks

OK when I boot into cwm and I have zip files that I down loaded and put into cwm and flash them and stuff but they are not in my root browser. But when I boot into recovery they are there

Are you using the actual app called root browser? Also are you looking at the same directory?

You're looking for old files from when you were on the lg software..
In root explorer they are in
Data/media/
On my s3 I would use TB and back up all my apps and data and when I flash a new ROM I would just do a batch reinstall of all my ****. Now I can't do that because I can't move apps to my SD card and I had stuff on TB but when you do a full wipe you lose it all. So I tried moving the back up to my SD card and it will not read that back up of TB on my SD card

I don't follow you...when I full wipe it doesn't format my internal sdcard..
Now again when I switched to cm10 from stock I had to manually go to
data/media/ and I had to move my entire titanium folder to the new internal sdcard location and then titanium found my backups fine.
I think he wiped the internal SD.

When I flash a Rom I should do a full wipe? The one that says wipe all user data I wipe cache and devik

Ok this is really bothering me I use TB for my backups for my apps. When I flash a new Rom and I go to reinstall my apps they are not there because you have to do a full wipe when flashing a Rom so how can I flash a Rom and be able to reinstall my apps and games with the data with them. Like games I lose all my saved points

Maybe I'm missing something but I back up my tb on my sd card so a full wipe only effects the internal storage.
When I back up with tb it saves to my internal not my external card I have always used tb never any problems is there a way to back up to my external? So what I did last night is back up my game real racing 3 moved it to my external card flashed a Rom installed tb and it did not pick it up on my card moved back to internal card and it picked it up. So I restored it and all it restored was the app no data so I lost my cars and everything. So I went back to stock cause I made a back up and I have all my stuff but if I want to flash a Rom I will lose my game data

You have to go to preferences and set backup folder to external card. After flashing, reinstall TiBu. Do preferences again, detect whole device, select backup location, say use current folder and you should see your backups.
