I am trying to transfer titanium backup files from my ond incredible to my GNEX. Can someone explain to me where I can pull the saved APK's?
Thanks
Why don't you just put the whole titanium backup folder on the nexus and use titanium backup to restore..?
i drag the whole folder into GN but for some reason it freeze on batch restore.

ok, i had two evo's and ran titanium backup on both of them...had different apps etc on each and want to put all apps on one phone. is there any way to combine the folders so all apps are backed up in one place?? is it as simple as copying all contents of one folder to the other folder (i.e. TitaniumBackup folder) thanks for any tips ...i couldn't seem to find this on any of the titanium backup sites (legendroid, modaco etc.)
Is there a way to delete some of the backups that you have made in nandroid?
defiantly go into your sd card with astro or any file management app and look for a Clockworkmod folder. there's a back up sub folder. you can delete from there which one you dont want or need anymore,
I got a new Galaxy Nexus GSM.
Shortly after turning it on, it upgraded OTA to JellyBean.
Then, I rooted it.
Installed Titanium Backup.
I copied the TB backup made on my rooted Nexus One running CM7, I just want to restore some regular user apps.
But cannot no matter what I try.
If I copy the Nexus One backups via USB to the Galaxy, there is no restore option for the uninstalled apps in TB. And if I try to verify the backup, TB reports an error. (It doesn't say what the error is, just that there is one.) Of course, the backup and verify on the Nexus One for the same backup is just fine. The MD5 has on the file on the GN (as shown by Root Explorer) matches the MD5 on original backup file on the Nexus One.
If I copy via dropbox, the file shows up in root explorer but it doesn't show up in TB.
I'm getting super frustrated and feel like an idiot.
I can install apps from Google Play, but I paid for TB Pro, and it just doesn't seem to be able to do this.
Also, I hate MTP and lack of SD card in the GN. I might just return the phone it is driving me crazy.
I copied files to the GN yesterday from my computer. I DELETED THE FILES. The files do not show up in Root Explorer on the phone, or when doing ls with ADB, but when use Windows Explorer to look at the GN, the files appear to be there! They really aren't there, because any file operation on it fails (with no error), except for properties - it shows the properties of the non-existent file! What is up with this?
move like that: copy nexus one tb folder to your pc. open it and browse only for .apk files, don't take other file in the backup. put all .apk file in a separate folder. select all and extract all file in a folder (because titanium make compressed apk file, from my experience). put new folder with .apk extracted file into your pbone and with explorer app like ES file explorer install each one. i advise this way because if you restore a tbackup into a phone from another, or from another android os version, you have to restore only app without data. so this is the same way without auto restore for each app function of titanium backup.
i hope this help

I have downloaded an app + data (so it seems), from a friend. He made a backup for me and told me I could restore it using Titanium Backup.
It's a zip file and it contains a .tar.gz of the data, a .apk.gz (app) and a .properties file.
The .properties file seems to contain Titanium Backup information.
So I assume there should be some way of importing this zip file using Titanium Backup. But I can't find that option.
What I can find is "Backup" (which creates a backup of an app and stores it *somewhere*) and "Restore", where I can't specify a path or anything.
How can I restore the data inside this zip?
Extract that .zip file to /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/ folder. If you installed app which you want to restore go to Titanium Backup app and just restore it :good:

Can someone please help me? I have all of my backed up info on Google Drive from TB. I moved that info from Google to my phone and have tried to batch restore, but it keeps showing 0 files. Please help as I have a lot of apps and data backed up and I don't care to start over. I purchased the TB Pro app for just such an occasion and now I can't use it.

This works indeed.
I selected a batch operation for backing up apps and system data. Downloaded it via the TB Webserver and thought I was okay.
Tried restoring by uploading it to my Nexus via TB Webserver anddd it's gone. Not in the Titanium Backup app, nor to be found on the Nexus with a file browser.
Uploaded the zip manually using an usb cable to the emualted sd andddd no,option in Titanium Backup to say "its here!".
Downloaded an unzip thingie in the Play Store, unzipped the shizzle and let the files in the zip -one level down- being unpacked in the TitaniumBackup folder.
Restarted TB and yay, it can see again. Batch restored everything and... it works. Kinda. Stuck on Swiftkey as we speak. But this is the best I could come up with.
Sigh.
1. Is there any method to update the apk files stored in the zip file with newer version ?
2. How can we delete /update the backup apks with newer version?

There may be a better way to do this, but somewhere in Preference you can tell it how many backups to keep. I think the default is "All". Set it to 1 and that should do the trick.
I rooted my GN this morning, installed CM10.1, did a titanium backup, and then when I tried to copy the backup folder over to my computer, I couldn't find the titanium backup folder in windows explorer. I know that the folder should be in the root folder, but it is simply not showing up. I copied the titanium backup folder into the DCIM folder (on my device), and I was able to transfer that copy to my device, but I want to be able to see the original Titanium backup folder. Yes, hidden files/folders are enabled. Any advice?
Reboot device and try again. The device needs to do a media rescan to appear on your computer. It's happened to me lots of times before. Or use a media rescanning app. Look on Play Store.

try renaming the folder to something else like Titanium Backup instead of TitaniumBackup
Simple, You kill the batman.
on another note, you need to use adb to pull it, or use NexusToolkit to pull files from it, then TitaniumBackup, location would be /sdcard/ and it will pull the contents of the folder. this is much more reliable as copying and pasting corrupts data.
Are you on the latest recoveries like twrp? If you are on an older one, when you flashed the cm10.1 the files stay on "/data/media" while your new sd location is "/data/media/0" try check there with a root browser or such..
Please post questions in Q&A
