I may be having a blonde moment here but I am I right in thinking that is I restore my apps and the app data from TB in a different ROM that will be ok? If that makes sense?
Of course it's ok, that's the whole purpose of TB...
Thanks, I think did just have a senior moment. I think I mistook the app data and system data were connected in a way. But never mind all sorted now.
Thanks again

Just wanted to know if anyone else had issues with this rom endlessly force closing and rebooting until you pull battery. And if so were you able to fix or correct it?

When you flashed the ROM did you go into recovery and wipe/factory reset and wipe dalvik cache (found in advance)? You have to do that before flashing to different ROM's.
Another issue that may have caused it is if you did a restore of all your apps with Titanium Backup. I'm guessing it's the second one because that happens a lot when you overwrite apps that came with the ROM.
I prefer to redownload all my apps manually and I only use Titanium backup to restore the data portion of the app after I installed it. An example would be restoring my data for the game Angry Birds so I don't have to start the whole game all over again.
Yeah I wiped everything its not my first rom but I think it was when I did my restore from titanium backup

I'm having the same problem. If i try to restore data from a nandroid backup it either never boots or the screen stays black. I need all my backed up data so unless this get fixed i can't play with it. I was really looking forward to making that rom my daily too!
I had the same issues when i tried gengersense originally.... defiantely the titanium backup issues... i've started only using that as a good list of apps and for user data. I've used it to restore apps sometimes they don't end up working right. BTW even the synergy nightlies work well enough to be a daily... my favorite rom yet.
Plus one on the titanium.
When coming from a different rom, only restore apps and app data, kind of a hassle but dont restore settings, it jacks stuff up

Does anyone know why my phone has a force close on every app restored with tb when I return to a sense rom from an ICS rom. All aosp rooms restore just fine

Did you fix permissions
yup, and I tried it a second time to no avail

Did you restore app+data or just apps
app plus data, there are a few apps which I would rather have the data from before like games
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA
Try restoring apps+data for the apps you need the data for like games and such
If you restore data on most items you will get a lot of fc's. I only restore data on specific programs
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
Thanks, I will try that but it still confuses me why it does that only on sense roms
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA
I might be wrong but I believe this concept has logic behind it. I believe that ICS builds are backwards compatible with the data from GB builds but not vice versa. (?)
You don't want to restore app & data between sense and AOSP. With games you should be able to restore app with data, but make sure you reboot after restore. Typically, I only restore data between the same. Sense to Sense and AOSP and AOSP.
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...

But restoring data can break things!

Also, I'm going to try the **** out of this. It looks invaluable.

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 :/

mybackup pro has that i can just backup apps and thats it. i dont need to backup the app data either, or even other data like contacts, mms,sms, etc...
EDIT: I'm not entirely certain of what he meant... I'm actually not certain he knows what he meant, either... so I'll just delete my thoughts on that confusion

i know what i said, i'm saying that in the MyBackup Pro App you backup/restore apps and if you want you can backup the data that the app contains, you can backup/restore regualr data like txt messages, system settings, MMS, contacts that are saved in the phone, call logs.

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.
Hi,
I have absolutely no idea why and how it happened, but my gnex made a factory reset, and all my apps (doesn't matter) and data (huge loss) is gone.
Is there any chance to recover the data?
Nope.
Your appswill be backed up up with your gmail account as far as the data unless you made a backup with something like titanium backup you are out of luck sorry to here about this. You should get titanium backup and make periodic back upsthis will save data and apps

Good idea from here on to make a nandroid back up and keep a copy of it on your pc.

I want to start fresh after the kk update. I have a profile for me and my son. I looked into helium but it has iffy results judging by feedback I read. Are there any other options? I would like to avoid root for now but since I bought square trade warranty I suppose it's not a huge deal.
I back all my stuff using KIES. Backs up my apps, snotes, system settings, etc.

helium is working fine for me but you have to connect your device to a PC and runa script to be able to save or restore anything.
price for non rooted devices and probably the reason for low feadback.
I also use it to transfer apps from my phone to tablet.
Any one tried mybackup from the playstore?
Been thinking of testing it out, but never find the time....

I've had varying success with Helium. When I do a system reset and try to restore from Helium about 80% of the apps will restore with data and the rest just fails. There's no explanation of reasoning behind which ones fail. And, when restoring all of the apps the process stops when a restore fails. I have to then start restoring after the failed app.
If you are relying on getting that data back don't count on Helium.
So apart from all the great guy stuff do search on Google for full backup android using adb. No rooting needed.
I would give you the link but I am on my phone today...

I am using it for a long time, very fast with backup & restore sms`s & call logs, but toooooo slow restoring apps.
What about Ultimate backup ?
Any way to backup screen layout? Without root that is...
