You can try appbrain to synch the apps you have installed, or if you are rooted, titanium backup.
my backup pro is good

If you're switching ROMs, using Titanium may cause problems. Remember download the FAST WEB INSTALLER - it will reinstall all your apps with a click of a button.

I'm looking for the best possible solution to backup my apps and apps settings (Handcent Gmail, etc) so when I flash a new rom I'm able to open up the app thats already configured relativity head ache free.
Is this something apps 2 sd would do?
MYBACKUPPRO, TITANIUM BACKUP, ASTRO FILE MANAGER, etc etc - Just search the market for "backup" and google the diff apps to see the features of each.
+1 for Titanium

DITTO makes everything easier
Titanium for sure
dunno about mybackup pro but titanium backup donate has gotten me out of some stupid situations before. It does the apps / data / system data all seperate and lets you restore each or all at once...going to and from CM6 and keeping two roms updated to play around with has never been easier.
Titanium backup. Back up app+data.
If you are going to a new rom and not the same rom it is best to install the apps fresh and not install the apps using Titanium back up. The apps that are saved are saved with the first roms settings and sometimes just the littelest diffrence could cause all sorts of issues leading to FC's or something else.

Didn't know Ti had this issue but MyBackup Pro doesn't. I've flashed different roms to test (always gone back to Fresh because it's just my preferred) and MBPro has always restored apps+data with no issues. The newest version finally doesn't list SU, which always gave me errors back then until I figured not to restore it. Anyways, Ti and MBPro are both great options.
I'm currently using mybackup pro to do backups and restores between rom installs. It retains market links, application databases, and other system settings. My only problem is that it is SO SLOW to backup and restore. It takes probably over and hour to backup my applications and another hour to restore them. I don't even have that many. Is there any quicker way of doing this? I'd like to be able to install a new rom sometime before the singularity.

Go to the Market and use Titanium backup. It backs up your apps over to your SD card along with app data. You can batch the backups and restores as well as schedule your backups. You can also use AppBrain. It updates which apps you download from the Market and then does a back up. But I think App brain only works with market apps. I'm not 100% on Appbrain.

How long does it take for titanium backup to do its thing?

The back up takes me a few minutes. 10 if I have a ton of apps. The restore is pretty annoying since you have to click install for EVERY APP YOU HAVE.

I realized this after running a backup and installing a new rom. Looks like you have to buy the pro version. I did and it restores automatically.

so i have calk vs. 2.5 and i want unnamed rom with all my app's. so when i go into recovery do i need to format all data or can i just instal the rom ??? and ik u can use titanium backup but in titanium backup is there a button restore all backed up apps? thanks!
In order to flash a completely different ROM, you need to wipe data, which will erase your current ROM and apps. You will need to use Titanium Backup to restore your apps after formatting and flashing the new ROM.
I think (not positive) TB has a batch option to restore all user apps.

Back up your apps on the current rom you are running. Use Titanium back up from the market. I usually wipe data and then back up the app. Go down the list until you got all the ones you wanted.
When you flash the new rom, flash it normally as you would going to any new rom. I use Calkulin's FORMAT ALL zip folder. It's easiest. And then flash new rom and reboot system. After you let the rom settle in for a good while, I usually reboot the phone. Then when you start setting up on the new rom, download Titanium back up again from the market. Once it's on your phone, go into the app and all the apps you backed up should be at the bottom. I usually just restore the app not the data with it.
Try not to restore system apps + data because it can cause problems when switching between ROMS.

I've never even found myself backing up/restoring system apps. I just stick to the "user apps".

Yes. Click menu then batch but it only works with the paid version of TB. I've had plenty of problems restoring apps and user data with TB on a new Rom. Yes it's quick and easy but in my opinion it's worth the time to reinstall everything you can fresh from the market.
I've always found switching roms a good time to clear out unneeded apps, just select the ones I really use and forget the rest.

Agree with this sentiment. Connected to Wi-Fi and take 10 minutes to fresh install everything so you know you aren't getting any of the conflicts that can arise using restored apps from different firmware.
Hi,
i have a Jelly Bean ROM an my DHD (this one) in the version Beta 7. Today is Beta 8 published and now i want to Update. But i dont know how to do this, without delete my Apps and Settings. Can one help me to do this ?

You can try and do a dirty install over top of Beta 7, but I wouldn't recommend it.

backup all with titanium. then you try simply instal beta 8 over 7. When it will not good, then wipe all, install 8 and restore apps from backup.
titanium backup is the best solution for this..
you can also backup apps with App Backup & Restore... it will backup the apps and restore without downloading the apps again
Titanium Backup is the way to go. I fully recommend paying for the pro version if you plan on flashing a lot.
Just search the Play Store for it.
It also has the ability to backup your phone log, messages, and wifi hotspots, which is increasingly handy.
You also have the ability to back up to GDrive and DropBox.
Just don't restore system apps or data, as you don't want to restore older versions into a new ROM.

Never done this so i was just wondering, if i was to take out my old backup files from another phone and install them into my G3, would i be able to use those to restore apps and data using TB on my G3 or would they not be compatible coming from another phone?

App + data will be compatible...
System files won't...
I restored some of apps that were too long to configure, but I really suggest you to download fresh new apps from playstore etc.
New phone, new life, fresh new apps?
