I already have titanium backup, but mine is the free version and not the pro. With the free version when you restore apps in a batch you have to manually do it, by manually installing one after one. So I was wondering whats a better free option? Mybackup Root or Go Backup?
I use MyBackup Root and like it. Haven't tried others besides Titanium and noticed the problem you mentioned. Since some ROMs have it bundled I do still use it, but mostly to restore MyBackup Root and go from there.
The PAID version of titanium is by far your best choice and it's really not all that expensive. I've talked to the dev and found that an awful lot has gone into getting to the point its at and keeping it updated. He deserves at least the meager bit he gets from paid licenses.
Nothing beats the Paid version of TiBu. For the very meager price of admission, it's one of the most thoroughly useful tools available on Android.

guys, i cant stress this enough and i'm sure the old android heads here will agree with me. their are many many different android phones out there that have root. And although they're all different they all have a few apps in common. setcpu, rom manager, terminal, titanium back up.
I just want to touch base on Titanium backup.
It allows you to totally remove any app, including bloat ware. You can also suspend apps.
the freeze feature was handy because i enjoy sense but didn't like its apps and widgets hogging ram for no reason; considering i never used those sense apps. it netted in a nice battery and performance gain, at least.
one awesome thing about TB is the ability to back up your apps and reinstall all of them. the whole experience is as streamlined as batch market downloading and waaaaaay better than astro file managers one at a time annoying install.
Also, after a full wipe you will definitely want to run market dr so u can easily keep tabs on your updates.
in short, you wouldn't bang her/him without a condom right? well don't flash with out titanium backup!
I totally recommend the paid version!!!!!
So now we can uninstall completely without consequences web2go, Pico TTS, Quickoffice, Listen , Home screen tips, Google Skymaps, Google Translate, Goggles, Finance, wifi calling, etc ??
I was about to but i got a message that said i might have to reinstall the ROM if something craps out...

you should be able too delete what u want. I wouldn't remove wifi calling though lol
I would wait for a clockwork recovery version to be available. This way u can make a backup before u delete all that

oh i see,
in regards to a backup? i think itll be best to be safe than sorry and wait till clockwork recovery is released.
is there a big difference between the free and paid version? what im asking is would i still be able to do back up and delete bloatware with the free version
The batch is MUCH better with the paid version, definitely well worth it

I agree!!!!!!!!!
Just one thing: please don't forget that system apps (ie: apps that are part of your ROM) themselves can't be restored by TitaniumBackup for now. Only their data is backed up. So if somebody is not 100% sure about removing a system app, it's wise to try freezing it first -because that's easy to undo.
So how do we do the remove of unwanted apps

I've tried the restore feature with Titanium back up and its a bit tiresome to click every application, by any chance theres a 1 click restore that is offered by some other applications? I dont mind paying for the app..
You can backup + restore in batch? At least with the full version.. I think its possible with free version as well..

Doubt it, the install screen when installing apps is kind of like a safety feature, so you know what's getting installed on your phone. I don't think there is an alternative to this at the moment.
Just buy titanium backup full, it gets rid of the single install. Thats point of full version
EarlZ - I have titanium backup PRO. Like what he said in the post before mine, PRO does have the feature you need.

Did you pay for the full version ?
Also since you there is a paid version, does it store online ??
Mybackup Root saves online I notice have not check it out. Waiting for feedback as I will buy one of them to have that option to save online.
Thanks MetalHead, and all.
Yes I have the paid version and yes it can store online, provided you have a drop box account.
I use titanium for the simple fact that i don't need MyBackup to backup my contacts since they are already saved to my GMAIL account.
Plus titanium has the ability to remove bloatware from the phone once it's been rooted.

Wow. That I did not know. Thanks for that Neipas09!
Thanks everyone. I guess this was easy.
Tb hands down, I tried mbpro, bad thing is evan with the paid version there is a upload limit.
When I tried it wouldnt bkup all I wanted .
Tbpro is worth every penny, I use it almost everyday
Swyped from a galaxy far far away......
Why would you choose Titanium over MyBackup? I know that a majority of the users have Titanium but I don't understand why. What are the differences? I have MyBackupPro and it has worked flawlessly forever! FIGHT!
I've had Titanium for so long, I can't be bothered to try something new/different..
It just works.
With options like freezing apps, pulling backups from nands, and controlling market links, Titanium is hard to beat. Add to that syncing to dropbox and it is a pretty good package.

Freezing, wiping cache, and wiping data are also available on mybackup pro, controling market links also. How would syncing to dropbox be helpful?

Your backup is stored safely in your dropbox in case of an sd card crash or your phone gets lost or stolen. You will still have your backup to put on the replacement.

okay, thats pretty cool, other than that, it looks like a wash. I don't think I need to buy Titanium, MBP works fine, and also offers the option of storing backups online.
After almost 1 year using MBP I tried Titanium Backup. TB is faster at backing up system data and users apps and also restoring but a little too complicated compared to MBP. Also MBP can restore apps directly to the SD card(only apps with that option obviously). Maybe TB can do it too but I can't find that option.

Right, MyBackup Pro can do ALL item titanium can do, and more.
It can backup the SMS, MMS, contacts, other system data from ANY Android version to a different Android version, so you can go from Android 2.x to Android 4.x, which titanium cannot do.
If you want faster backup and restores of Applications and their Data, you can turn on the Busy Box option in the options of MyBackup (Pro).
Also, MyBackup Root is FREE and does a lot more than the free titanium
When I do full restore of system data on Titanium I get all my settings back and have had no problem going from Froyo to Gingerbread with a backup. I don't think you have used it in a while.

As well as scheduled back ups and the customizability ( made up word?) of the backups
I bought both and went ultimately with Titanium. Mainly, it was because, at the time, MyBackup did not have a master page to see what apps were frozen. You had to select each one at a time. In Titanium Backup you could see all your apps and the frozen ones had a blue bar highlight.
Titanium. The end. I used to use mbp, but I got fc's or the app just wouldn't show up after restoring

The best thing to do is really to try both.
You can get the free MyBackup Root application, which gives you just about everything you need, and the free titanium, and try them out.
MyBackup Pro does have all items Root has, plus a few more items like freezing/disabling bloatware, market linking/detaching, etc...
It's seems they are almost identical Apps. The main difference is the interface,
My Backup Pro seems to be a LOT more user friendly whereas Titanium is for more technical minded people who love control over every little thing.
My Backup Pro - Simple interface and seems not to need root, good for the normal user or the occasional rom flashing.
Titanium Backup PRO - Geared more to the technical minded who likes exploring and control, and compulsive rom flashers.
MyBackup Pro doesn't have DropBox functionality because they also make money out of selling more space online for your backups.
A way around it is to manually get your backups on your SD Card to your DropBox yourself.
In the end it comes down to a matter of preference, as they both much do the same thing
I use Titanium and I like to be able to choose every little thing I'm backing up but on the other hand there is the case of the 'unfriendly' interface (which I gotten used by now but had to do some reading on some bits).
Titanium really needs a Usability Engineer(?) on their team. They would benefit having a 'Normal' and an 'Expert' mode for their interface.
Agreed. Titanium Backup should revamp the interface or give us a choice of interfaces: Classic or Simple
I use MBP, but I don't like it. When I first used it on Froyo and Gingerbread, it rocked. Now on Jelly Bean it regularly force closes, it doesn't copy all the data for applications, some applications don't backup or restore properly. I have never had any problems with Titanium, ever. It's just so darn cumbersome.
I have used Titanium backup on 3 different devices, from Froyo to KitKat, over the past 3 years. It has worked fine thru it all. Backups & Restores are a snap to do, and are reliable. Only problems ever has been an occasional hang up, where I have had to do a shutdown, reboot, but it did not seem to affect the restore.
Love MBP, never had a problem.

MyBackup Pro now supports Dropbox
Hey guys the new version 4.2 of MyBackup Pro now allows you to use your Dropbox account as the Cloud storage option for Backups and Restore. You can use this by running the app and hitting Menu->Options then select the "Cloud Storage Location" option and selecting Dropbox.
what app or method does everyone use to successfully backup their game data? ive been using my backup pro alot but i can never retrieve for example subway surfer...i lose my data every time i flash a different ROM..
Titanium Backup.

Titanium backup for me too. No problems after about 3 years of use.
thanks ill try that
The pro version is worth the money. It allows batch backup/restore. The free version makes you restore one app at a time.
Another endorsement of Titanium Backup Pro. And if you are going to buy it the better deal is to buy it direct from the Titanium Backup website. The advantages are:
- The price is lower than on the Play store ($5.99 vs $6.58)
- The license is provided in the form of a key file that you are allowed to use on all of your devices. (not tied to a single Play store login).
Buy it and support the developer!
