Widgit - titanium backup pro - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Hi,
Which widgit backs up just the apps I've installed with their data? (such as game progress)
Backup all new versions seems to just backup the app & not with its data.
All user apps with data seems to backup things I don't want, such as dialer, fonts, and everything else.
I just want a widgit that does a backup of the apps I've installed with its saved data.

if you mean the extra data you download for the game i dont think that can be backed up by titanium unless you copy the folder from memory card and later put back there after restoring app from titanium

No, i mean the data as in 'saved games'
Which widgit does a backup of only the apps I've installed plus my game/app progress?

A combination of "back up all user apps + system data"; to clarify this bu's YOUR installed apps + their data not "system data" proper. Add to this a "filter by label". You'll have to set up labels in Ti BU if you haven't already, and add new apps to the appropriate label group. So theoretically you could have a combination of system and user apps backed up by filtering by label if you choose the correct b/u option.
I b/u manually, so I can't confirm your thought that the data isn't being backed up.

The one your mentioned seems to backup everything,
Bluetooth pairing , calender, calculator, accuweather etc
I wouldn't class these as 'user apps' as i didn't install them.
Pain. Lol

Setting up labels might work. I'll play around with it today and see how it works. Might make a not so manual guy outta me.

Just replicated what you noticed; it backed up data for apps that I didn't install from market, and that aren't classed as a user app, etc...
Applied a label that I already had made (user apps, the ones that I installed and chose to be labelled as such), it backed up only these apps. You could break it down by label further, Games, etc... It just requires you to not forget to assign an app to a label.

So, when installing a new app / game, I'd need to add this to the label?

I want to start flashing some new roms but I want to make sure my apps are backed up... I dont feel like re-downloading all of them again... I have background data, auto-sync checked and I just synced my gmail... Should I not worry?

Titanium Backup from the market... get the paid version... Its totally worth it
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
So that is the only to get all my downloaded apps back? I thought they would sync with my account automatically?
the only apps Google backs up are the ones u buy. So if u get titanium backup it does all the backups on a schedule and it backs up data, apps and all that even the free apps
Ohhh okay, so if I dont want to re-download all my apps that I have now(free) then my only option is have titanium backup donate version?

Yes or the free version. The difference between paid and free is that the free one you have to restore the apps one at a time.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
It says my maximum backup is one... So im guessing I can only backup 1 app at most with the free version?
Or I can only have 1 backup per app at most? THen if I want to do another backup, it will delete the older one?

Thanks for your help... It went smooth and I was able to get back all my apps by backing up/restoring... Only thing that sucked was that I had to do 1 by 1 for each app haha... But atleast it went smooth...
Is there a site or something I can look at a comparison chart of the two? I tried the main site but came up empty...

great app for crack flashers!!

i thougth i would share this app as i will be including this in my roms as soon as i release a upadate mean while i will share this.. this app creats a zip for all your apps with passwords and everything keep in mind ics only compatible apps and visa versa i would create a ics only zip for them any way here you go enjoy

Seems like it could be quite useful. What about data? Will it retain data for apps, or just the app itself? And do you have the choice to retain data for certain apps or not?
Maybe you could create two zip files, one for just apps and another for apps+data...

Well, and yes this backups data, 12 of my 39 applications that required uninstalling and redownloading.
Depends on the the tool though. MyBackup Root still works beautifully for all data restoring needs.
This was such a better option though. I was excited. I wish there was an option for no data :/

So, if I am understanding correctly what this app does, it will create a zip file of JUST your apps, and when flashed, will restore the backed up apps to /data/app
I use TB to backup my data, and HATE to restore any data for apps until AFTER I have fully tested the ROM with my apps and no data restores, so this would be awesome!
And yah, I know TB does this, but if this is a simple one click thing, would make it super easy for me, and the price couldn't be better

Very nice app and much needed.

Probably going to get a Note 2 soon, coming from an S3

I am running CM10 on my current S3. Can I export my SMS/MMS from the S3 to the Note 2 or will I loose them? Everything else on the phone is either in the cloud or a program that I need to re-install so it's not an issue. Thanks!
Pretty sure there is a app that backs up sms

I have titanium backup and I know that does, I just don't know if it restores to a different device correctly
Search for sms backup+
Backups to gmail account just like email.
But then again you are on cm10. That might make a difference.

Use sms backup+ for texts and as for apps and such drag your titanium backup file over and restore
It will work. Titanium backup. But besure to restore asap. It will disorient the order or wipe the newer stuff. I brought my stuff from my samsung infuse. The note 2 and s3 are damn near the same phone software wise. Especially if you go aosp to aosp.
You can cloud the titanium backup via dropbox. But its a bit weird. Id just save it to the sdcard and swap.

What apps do you install first after switching to a new rom

Hey guys!
The title says it all! I am wondering what apps you guys believe are a must have right after you flash a new rom.
My first ones are Xtreme Alarm clock and To.do. Both are brilliant at what they are meant to do!
Stryg
I don't download apps when i install a new ROM for the first time. I restore my apps through TWRP. I use app2zip to generate the scripts.
----------------------------------------------
Phone: Galaxy s2 t989
Rom: PACman 21.0.1
Kernel: PAC
I'm full of great idea's, but don't have the time to create them or learn the coding to create them. If you want to make one of my ideas a reality just message me and I will give you my idea as specific as possible.
ideas:
-launcher/lock screen
-line rider type game where you control the character
-2d fighting game like art of fighting for the SNES
-multiplayer fps where you create your own map with a creative mode (minecraft style)
-roller coaster tycoon style game
-get phone out of sleep mode
-many more!
Just message me which idea you want info on and I'll tell you!

I reinstall all necessary and desired apps from the play store by sliding going to the "my apps" page, and sliding over to the "All" apps pane and individually choosing. This is because I know sometimes, depending on what rom and phone I'm restoring to, there may be some apps that I see as obsolete and choose not to reinstall. Then, using the app "Datasync" I pull down all my old settings from the apps from my dropbox account back onto my phone. Saves me 30mins of reconfiguring many of the settings. I can also automatically back up to the dropbox account using "Datasync" so that it is always up to date.
Another alternative to datasync is carbon, from clockwork recovery. And for those that are wondering, I tried setting up some "social gaming" using datasync pro on my device and a friend's, so that we could play and beat games together, like angry birds levels, etc, but datasync does a full wipe and backup for both uploads and downloads, and not partial incremental changes like I originally thought, so my social gaming idea failed.
Titanium Backup! Ever since my G1 its been my method of choosing what to restore and backup. Lol I've had it so long its before there was a pro version and you donated to unlock certain features.

I do this exact same thing when flashing a ROM from a clean start. Usually I do pick AdAway first from the list (I know it not on the Store anymore, so I install the APK from my SD. Then Root Explorer and XDA Premium, then whatever else I feel I want at the time.
On a side note does anyone know when the XDA app will be back up? It's been days (if not weeks?). My subscriptions don't show. That's the only (main) reason I paid for it. Easy access on the go to my threads.

[Q] best way to back up personel

before i take the red pill and flash the wicked rom, what is the best method to save personal data phone #,contacts, calendar appointments, email passwords, alarms, etc.?
the wicked rom says not to backup system apps, does that include app data?
thanks
Titanium Backup. You can restore app settings, say alarm clock settings, Temple Run accomplishments, etc.
I just export my contacts to my sd card and import back on a new rom. You can also link your contacts to a Google account.
I run Wicked, never had any issues at all.

Search your internal storage, it shouldn't of been deleted. Go through a file manager and if you can find it, go to titanium >preferences >and restore location.

yeah, you have to change backup location in titanium settings. In the S3, it uses your internal memory as an internal sdcard. That is where it saves all your personal junk by default. When you wipe though, it is possible to wipe without wiping that data, a factory reset should be enough. If you change in settings though, you would need to configure it to use your external sd card.
