I obviously am not rooted yet. I need to know how I can restore a backup using a non rooted program that will include app data like game info. How should I go about doing this? I have the old phone right here with me, so I can do a fresh backup if needed. I already have backups with titanium, but I can't restore them without root access it's telling me.
I would think that there is some way to restore app data without being rooted. What do you suggest?
Edit: Is there a temp root for people with 2.3.3?

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.
I'm interested in rooting my HTC Evo that has the 2.2 firmware, but I want a very thorough method of backing up all my data first. What is the best method for a complete backup of all the data on my phone?
MyBackup Pro from the Market. When you restore, do not restore system settings as this will cause interference with the new ROM. Restore only apps and data for the apps.
After you root, use Titanium Backup. It's the best app. Also after root you will have the ability to do a nandroid backup which is like a Windows Restore Point such that you can rollback everything to the way it was when you performed the nandroid backup. Very useful when you totally mess up everything.

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?

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.

I'm looking to completely back up as much of the data on my GalNex as I can before I root it and jump into trying ROMs again.
I don't mind re-downloading all the apps I have now again, but I do mind losing all the data associated with them. I know that Titanium Backup is capable of doing this, but as I am not rooted yet using it is out of the question unless I'm grossly misinformed.
What can I do to back up everything before I take the plunge?
Just root it and do the backup. Where's the problem with that?
you can use Galaxy Nexus ToolKit and Titanium Backup.
These two tools can backup your date.
If you have the SDK or ADB setup you can do the non root required ICS backup method.

As a previous user has said you can use the Galaxy Nexus ToolKit to backup all installed apps and associated userdata. You can also use the ToolKit to backup your virtual sd card and restore easily after unlocking. The only thing it cant back up is your system settings and HomeScreen placement.
Mark.
Or you can root without unlocking your bootloader, use Titanium to back up everything, and then take the plunge.
I was just wondering if anyone might be able to assist me with how to save the progress or save file from a particular game?
I want to do the OTA or maybe even install the AOSP rom from the AT&T section, but do not want to loose my place in Cut The Rope (yes, I am lame, lol)
You won't loose any data with the OTA.

If you're unrooted stock and you get the OTA, you won't lose the data.
If you're going to install the AOSP, you'll have to be rooted. What I would do then is root the phone, get titanium backup, back up cut the rope and any other games you want to save, then install the custom rom. Once you're done there, reinstall titanium backup and then restore cut the rope. Done.
so all i do is a regular backup like titanium or apps2zip or watever and when restoring them, the save game progress will be restored as well? I am rooted, but cannot get OTA because I am modified, so I want to go back to completely stock by using odin my original image, and going from there...
or do you guys suggest waiting until there is a ODEXED version available of the OTA update?
yup. titanium backup will save your backups in a separate folder in the sdcard (which you can certainly export out to the external sdcard or throw it in dropbox). When you restore using titanium backup, tell it to restore apps and data, and you're done.
Thanks
