Ok. My wife plays alot of Angry Birds. Like several hours a day. And has all stars on the original, and RIO.
But she has had issues of late with Seasons. It just refuses to open and she has to either wipe the data or uninstall and reinstall. Either way she losses all her stars and has to start over.
I haven't really got into the Birds, but I feel her pain. I have painful memories of a corrupted FFVII save file back in the PS1 days. A mate and I had invested several hundred hours into leveling up enough to defeat the Ruby Weapon. Only to lose it all. Sad sad day for all involved........
Sorry I digress.
Where was I? Ah yes. Does this happen often on the android system? Is there any way to lessen the chances of corrupted save data? Like converting the file system or something? She is on Darky's 9.5. With system lagfix ect.
I have setup Titanium Backup for her to save occasionly so she doesn't have to start over. But it just seems odd that only seasons has this issue?
And truth be told. I have not had a corrupt data issue with my phone EVER! And I've been on the same ROM (darky's 9.5) since it was released. That's quite a few months with no re-flash/fresh install ect.
Has anyone experienced any data corruption issues. Could it be here internal SD card is on its way out?

Exactly the same thing happened to me on AB Seasons.
I read on Rovio's site and according to them the only way to fix this is uninstall,reinstall and restore data from a previous time before the app crashed,even if a new update comes it wont fix the problem..It happened to me when i had 10 stars left to complete the game so i know what she's feeling..
I hope this "helps"
Thanks for the reply mate. Good to hear its a issue with the app and not a hardware or software issue with the phone itself.
Cheers

Same thing just happened to me with Rio. Guess I'm going to be using Rio Backup religiously from here on out.
Same problem here.
Before update the latest Rio i did a backup using Rio backup app.Worked no problem.
Then updated the 1.6 angry birds and install the combined angry birds backup app. Installed, played one level and put backup back in and black screen.
Tried to reinstall 1.5.2 (i think it was) and then tried the backup and didnt work, re-installed 1.6.1 (which at least booted) and tried the backup and no chance, black screen again. Had full stars apart from on the new mine and dine. Still have the backup files but just started again
Reason why i havent updated angry birds seasons.
SGS1.
try to uninstall and restore app+data and then update
Make sure you restore data from previous version or it wont work. GL ,i deleted angry birds after my big disappointment!

I'm hating it with a passion and I don't know if its something that I may be missing. I purchased the full version and use it to ''Backup Apps + Data'' since I know that backing up system data screws up your phone.
Everytime I switch ROMs I run ''restore apps + data'' and upon completion I run into a ton of force closes and terrible lag issues. I also notice that the lag happens when I'm browsing on 4g. (the force closes happen all the time with almost all the apps)
I end up downloading all my apps all over again and losing my achievements and progress in games. I beat Angry Birds in like 2 days and now I have to do it again.
By the way I always download the busybox in the problems link in titanium backup. I always wipe dalvik and factory reset in between ROMs.

I only get problems when I restore system apps, If I just restore user apps there is no problem. dont restore system data, it will overwrite the good new stuff in the new rom you just flashed and frankenstein it into both the old and the new, hence yhe fc's
sounds like you're restoring something you shouldn't. Don't just do a batch restore, make sure that you're only restoring the apps you want.
Different roms work with different version of wireless tether, spare parts, etc. Just as ZJ mentioned, you restore something that a new rom changed and it could cause problems.
Also, be careful switching between Sense and AOSP Roms, even with just user apps. People have had problems with that. But going from AOSP rom to AOSP rom, I've never had a problem. (I have the paid version, and I switch back and forth constantly.)
I wouldn't say that I've lost faith in TB, but I have never really been a big fan of it. The only things I b/u with TB is Angry Birds, and bookmarks. Everything else I b/u to Astro, or just re-d/l from the market. I try to do a clean install from the market whenever switching ROMS to avoid any data issues.
I use it every time I do a rom to restore all my apps and certain system data. The green things are typically OK to restore to any LIKE rom (sense or ASOP)
Restore like sms messages, bluetooth, wireless, etc.
Don't restore the red stuff.
Ok I will try some of those suggestions.

GQ- I feel your pain. I only just recently started flashing roms and I experienced the exact problem you described.
I went from stock to CM6.1 At first it was nice and fast. After I did the batch Titanium restore it started to get really laggy!
Like someone suggested don't restore important system related stuff (such as system settings) I actually ended up using MyBackUp Pro because it seemed to restore with less stability issues.
Another good idea IMO is to d/l a screen saver app. You can find them in the market. Take a pic of each of your home screens so that you can copy them exactly when you flash your new ROM. Just a lil something I personally do...
Does titanium not work well with an Apps2Sd?

I'm very anal about my home screen and have it set up the same way regardless of what ROM I use. It's easy for me to remember because I prefer using 3 screens. I just notice lag when scrolling through my apps or random force closes on apps I use often. Like you mentioned before I only do a batch backup of installed apps and then I restore apps + data only (not system data).
The mistake I was probably making was having the restore overwrite the newer/existing versions of the same app that came with the ROM I just flashed.
I have noticed when I do a titanium full batch app & all data restore my emails will not auto sync. I have to open and refresh to get it to work.
I am using Reefermattness' latest package and the only things that do not work is blueooth and the camera\camcorder which i never use anyway so its not a problem for me. I am having a problem though, some apps will not install. I basically use XDANDROID for the apps\games so this is a big problem that I cannot get OPERA MINI 5.1 or ANGRY BIRDS to install.
Is there a solution to this problem? I have done alot of searching and have found alot of people have had this same problem but all the post were a couple months old so I'm not sure if this has been fixed. I have also read that ANGRY BIRDS won't install on devices like the EVO either. I have also seen about 30 screenshots on Reefermattness' thread of people running ANGRY BIRDS so I am wonderin why it will not work for me. Could it be my device (TILT 2)? Could it be because I am overclocking XDANDROID? Do I need to update something in the package? I have used several KERNALS so I don't think that is the problem cause I have never been able to install ANGRY BIRDS no matter which KERNAL I use. Do I need to write a code in STARTUP.TXT? I am really unsure why ANGRY BIRDS works for some and not others. Can someone help? PLEASE!
angry birds
i was never able to run it either till now!
I use Froyo X Jan.12.2011 from here.
Froyo X
in post #3 there is a download link for Angry birds.apk
extract the Titanium backup folder to root of sd.
copy over the froyo files and launch. Use titanium backup to restore Angry Birds and data.
should work then =)
I don't run with mine overclocked and it runs well, slight lag here and there depending on running apps. I might try overclocking to see how it is.
if u get a light blue screen only and sound on ur 1st startup for angry birds i just turned off Android and rebooted to fix. Usually always works for most issues

I got it workin on the package I am using but now I have a problem with the graphics. I guess I need a 3D driver.
I've had it installed on a lot of my other packages but this is the only 1 where I've been able to play it. Others either didn't have video and just sound or were too laggy to be playable.
There is a lite version out there which worked better then the Marketplace 1 for my old packages that u could try. But the Froyo X is the only working/playable 1 i have found for me.
So.... I would like to know if titanium backup is going to save my game saves, for games like zenonia and drag racing, I've spent quite a few hours on them in the past few weeks and really don't want to loose my progress.
From what I've read, lots of people's saved games do not get backed up through titanium backup.
Is there another way to backup my saved files, and be guaranteed to keep my progress intact?
I have root, I'm running ARHD 5.1.7 and I want to upgrade to 5.2.3.
Thanks in advanced, PixelVandal.
Oh, it's kind of urgent.
I want to update my rom before I go on holidays tomorrow.
Usually, all games store their save state in system/data or sdcard data. Titanium Backup can back up the app and data simultaneously, so you shouldn't be worry about it. In special occasion, some games generate save data by creating their own folder in sdcard. By keeping the game folder untouched will preserve the save data.
Btw, zenonia 2 has online save data storage. Super convenient

What are you trying to say? That they are missing from your device or that they are missing from the market?
My daughter lost one but it was a game, it was missing off phone but just installed it, maybe it needed updated for gingerbread

I lost a few. Astro, Titanium Backup and a few more. Seemed like the Market didn't know they were there or missing.
Reloading them worked fine.
One other thing I noticed is that most of the apps I had on the SDCard are now listed as Phone Only... ??
Not sure how that actually happened.
Other than that, the update (rooted so I used one of the nandroid updates) has been working fine. Not a lot of changes noted as I was still using the same formats I had before.
I had the same issue when updating from Froyo to GB. Just move everything from .android_secure on the SD card to .android_secure on the device itself and reboot.
Lost several apps that didn't matter, lost a couple that did. Lost all progress in AB Rio but have it on a nandroid backup. Lost a TB with backup, lost Grave Defense and now that have it back it will not update.
It's all sorted now but it's a pain in the buttocks
So I've finally gotten to that point, I can't take this verizon crap anymore. I have a nandroid backup and Ti ready to go. SO I started with installing Verizon crap, I removed VZ navigator, Backup Assistant, and Vcast Apps. After doing this now my Playstation games (both Crash, and ones I made myself) do not show in the launcher anymore, but I tried them and they do run. I guess thats cause of Vcast or???
That problem is livable, the worse problem is I am trying to convert the stock installed games (Asphalt 6 for example) to user apps to move to SD, when I do that it just says "Processing" and seems to sit there forever, I rebooted and restored my backup and tried again, and am still having the same problem. Does it just not work?
anyone? Bueller?
There's an app called preinstalled service or something, that app is needed to play psx games

Ha that's a classic!
But your correct, without vcast my apps didn't show up in game launcher and if you removed pre installed service .apk then they wont show even with vcast .
There's a terminal line you can add to make all apps installable to sd but it will also make all new downloaded apps Install to sd and I felt like downloads were slower, not that 3g is fast in the first place though.. I'll look up the line to punch in terminal and edit my post here
Edit: I think its "pm setinstallocation 2"
That's what I could remember I'll look it up officially though
