I just updated to Froyo (Fresh 3.1.0.1), and I made several Titanium Backups prior. When I created a backup in the past, I would copy and paste the TitaniumBackup folder from the sdcard to my desktop just in case anything ever happened to my phone.
After updating to Froyo, I went to reload all my data, but Titanium failed to recognize the backup after I cut and paste it from my desktop to my sdcard.
I'm not so much worried about the apps as I am about the SMS and what not. How can I get Titanium to recognize the backup?
Thanks for your help!
did you mvoe the back up before you installed titanium? i have moved it after a few times (as i back up mine as well) and have run into this problem. I ussually just uninstalled and reinstalled titanuim once the folder was backa nd it worked fine.
as a note if your back up is from a 2.1 rom. make sure to go through the list when you tell it to restore all and uncheck 2.1 specific system components (ie checkinService_update 2.1, googleTalkserive_update 2.1) this reduces problems as well

That worked. Cheers, mate!
And I appreciate the heads up on the system components!
Ah, just noticed one thing didn't work -- perhaps I deleted it from the backup file.
Which files do I need to restore to retrieve my SMS?
what application do you use for SMS? i believe it stores it under "accounts" it has a tiback up icon I could be wrong cant test it for sure. Normally mine updates itself to current after getting a message or 2 (i have google sync on) so i think something is synced elewhere as well maybe some one else knows a little more about this. Glad you at least got some of it restored.

I'm using Handcent, but I don't think it matters because the text messages use to be viewable in the HTC client and all third party apps.
Hello!
I want to get a new Rom on my Desire.
Currently i have leedroid 2.2 (froyo-rom) installed and i want to go for redux (2,3 gingerbread).
Last time I've changed a rom is quit a long time ago,
so I dont really know what is the best method at the moment.
I want to get my current settings as quick as possible, so I need a good Backuptool and a good "plan".
Important:
-sms
-emailaccount settings
-apps WITH appstore connection (updates etc)
-calender
-folderorganizer settings, widgets, and launcherpro settings
-contacts
Is there an "allround"-app, for saving all these settings in an easy way?
Whats the quickest solution for changing a rom?
Thanks for help!
There easiest way for backing up most of your data is to actually use your Google Account. So when creating contacts make sure it's created as a Google contact and the same for your calendar. They will get backed up to your account and will get restored when you sync on a new rom (this has saved me a lot of time). You could try something like Titanium Backup although I don't know what you can backup other than apps. There are SMS backup apps on market.
Yes best way is to use google acct to backup your contacts and calender.
For SMS - there are many apps in market which can backup in yr gmail (but not sure of restore) or can back up on your SD card. You can restore it later.
So generally,
I do nandroid backup(just if something goes wrong),
after that titanium backup (which saves all apps so you need to reinstall and saves your progress in games)
Launcherpro settings can also use back up to SD card (i dont use lancherpro but I do remember having that setting) which can you restore later.
So just download new ROM, wipe everything and flash it and 1st restore titanium backup and later restore your SMS and launcherpro settings.
Use SMS Backup + backs up/restores all SMS/MMS to your Gmail account for free.
You can also use titanium backup. But note that some settings won't work on a different rom especially if switching from 2.2 to 2.3.x.so be Caucasus when restoring.

yes use titanium backup. works good.
I have a backup of my Gingerbread version (2.3.3) working fine.
Yesterday, I finally found a Brazilian firmware to my I9000 and tried to test it.
Now, I'm using the Froyo version (2.2.1) downloaded from Kies and I'm having a problem to restore some files.
All my games and apps from Market are restored without any problem.
When I try to restore my contacts I get the message: Google Services Framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped.
The process android.process.acore has stopped.
I have to FC them and it enters in this looping.
I tried to restore only the data (the green ones) without any luck.
I tried all kind of settings in the TB, but without success.
What can I do ?
Thanks a lot.
Factory reset first .

Thanks, but I already tried it before posting.
This problems seems to be related with Google Account Sync.
I'm not sure that restoring from a newer version to an older one will work.
Personally I never restore system data and settings with TB (except the sms storage), only applications. I believe that it is more safe to do the basic configurations manually than restore it from backup.
I use my Google accounts to store the contacts, they sync without issues.
Restoring system data like that never works well via Titanium.
I would go back into recovery, clear cache and dalvik, then do a factory reset.
Go back to Titanium, restore the apps you wish WITHOUT data. Then sync your gmail to get your contacts back.
Create a google account just for the contacts and calendar, thats what I did...
Thanks a lot for the tips.
I tried all these tips but didn't work.
I had to restore only my programs and games from market and imported my contacts from my sim card.
As always happens, I had to edit every contact, because the first name always is in the last name field and even having the option to not show the contacts from sim card, I the same contacts twice in the list and had to del them.
The worst problem was after restoring my programs and games from market. They are working fine, but market can't identify them as a file already downloaded.
I tried to use the Market Doctor option but it didn't work.
I had to download them again from market.I think it happens because I'm not using an English version anymore.
At least after trying a lot, I'm using a Brazilian firmware downloaded from Kies.
No more problem of running a program with Brazilian language, but as the firmware was in English, these programs run in English language too.
Having some problems with my phone and planning on getting a replacement today.
What's the best way to back up my phone and transfer it to my new one? I'm running aokp and nova can I just transfer my nova back up to the new phone? What should I do in tibu though?

Best way to transfer it would be through a nandroid using ext sd card. Otherwise you can use TiBU for USER (backing up system apps is asking for trouble) [apps+data] only.
Nova will only backup your layout and drawer. When you load the nova backup on the new phone it will mirror your exact setup and if there's any apps missing it will simply have a green android icon with the name of the app that was installed on your homescreen (currently not installed).
You'll also want to use google account sync to backup your contacts. Pictures/videos/audio obviously through an ext sd.
I had to backup my GS3 apps when going from root back to stock. For the apps you can find the TiBu folder in the internal storage, copy that to your PC. When you get your new phone- install TiBu, paste the folder back in and you should be able to restore them. Contacts can be restored by syncing with the Gmail account, and photos you should copy to your computer as well. Good luck

yep, best way to go.
I recently updated from Slimbean 4.2.2build5 to 4.2.2build6. I use Ultimate Backup Lite to restore my applications and phone data (sms,etc.) however I still can't find a way to restore (1) system settings such as interface, sound, battery and (2) desktop widgets. I use Apex Launcher and I can restore the icons but no dice on any of the widgets.
Does anyone know how to do either one?
I found this thread but it is old and note sure if it is still accurate. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39778324
