Restore from TB without TB - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Is there any app that can restore app and data from the TB folder? Using TDJ's Darkside Evolution beta2 and restoring data gives me issues.

Don't think so. But do what I did and restore what you want with Tb. Then use Root Tool Box to back up apps and app data then after that flash a clean install of Rom and instead of using Tb. Use Root Tool Box to restore. Worked like a charm. No reboot or shutdown issues! Good luck hope that helps!

I had a post made on my old account about app2zip. It can be a little buggy but in the right hands with the right tweeks to make it pics stable it did a fine job on gb.

Just restore with "APP Only" option.
or, copy the Titanium backup folder to an SD card and use 7zip to unzip the tar.gz containing the apk.

Nand backup won't create MD checksum

I can'tcreate a single nandroid backup, nor restore old ones when gear shifting my roms and room manager always fails to create a backup, it's tragic.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Are you booting into recovery, or using ROM Manager? I've had issues in the past w/ ROM Manager actually creating a backup, but if I reboot into cwm and start a backup, it works fine.
As for restoring prev. nandroids, are you changing the name of the file/folder of your backup? From what I've heard, it cannot have any spaces between characters, make sure it's a . or - or something.
Hope that helps!
I've tried using cwm and ROM manager and none of them work, I'm wondering if I should use my internal SD.

If that doesn't work, you can try reflashing cwm through Odin
I'll give it a whirl.

[q] nandroid backup question!

okay, so If i make a nandroid backup I know what things it saves.
I just wanted to make sure, when it restores applications, does it restore the downloaded ones from the android store? like temple run and such?
ALSO when i perform a restore, Does it automatically flash the old rom with data or must I first flash the rom of the backup and then preform the restore?
THANKS
It restores your phone to the exact same way it was when you made the backup. All you have to do is reboot after restoring and it will be exactly the same as before the backup.

Since when does CWM not restore kernel? Lol. If it didn't restore the kernel, going from TW to AOSP (or vice versa) wouldn't boot

You need to change the backup location in the TiBu settings so it can see the old ones.
Since 4.3 I haven't been able to use Titanium, mainly because I've been too lazy to look up how lol.

Help please

So I'm new to the s3 I successfully rooted and installed cwm. I made a back up of my stock 4.1.2 ROM but when I installed a new ROM my back up went away. On my previous phones in cwm when you wipe data it didn't wipe any backup. Now it did. How can I prevent this from happening and and does anyone please have a 4.1.2 stock t mobile ROM cwm backup!? Would be very much appreciated

What rom did you install? It's probably under /0 folder.

It should be on the root of the internal storage. To prevent this, stick to one version of the os. No one is going to give you their backup/nandroid. Go through the development section, there's a few 4.1.2 stock Roms with root.

It would be under the /0 if op made the backup after flashing and booting up the ROM.

What do you mean stick to one version of os. Does anyone have a backup without logging in to a gmail account. So its completely stock

In my past experience with cwm wiping data always wiped the internal storage.. So one way to prevent it from happening is to make backups to the external sdcard instead of internal.. I don't know how it works now because I've been using twrp for a while now.. And there is stock ROMs in the development section, you can just download one and flash it

Okay I have it some what fixed I found my backups in the ROM manager app. But can't find them through a file manager app. But my back up is in my phone some where but only accessible from ROM manager.

Normally rom backup is secured and will not be wiped
You can download es file explorer and give root permission
Go to /device,- mnt folder - shell folder - you will find cwm folder and in that backup folder containing your all backup
Try it

Yup - MyBackUp Pro OR Titanium Backup for data - Or a CWM backup of everything.
Yes it is. Referred to as a Nandroid. Reboot into your custom recovery CWM or TWRP, select back up, the destination of the back up to internal or external and run it. Hope that helps.

What he said about nandroids. And I like to use Titanium Backup PRO to backup my apps and data. Also, there are many SMS backup apps that don't need root.
