When I restore them and they get installed will I continue to get update notifications from the play store for the apps I bought or will I have to download them again from the store for that?
If I can remember correctly when I used tb there is an option to restore market link. Then you should still receive updates for your apps

I decided to go back to stock after trying some of the custom ROMs here. I backed up all my apps using ASTRO. After flashing back to stock and rooting, I restored the apps but they are not showing up on the downloaded apps in the Market. Is there a way to fix this?
It will remember your apps from the gmail account you used when downloading them.

No, what he's saying ia that the market won't recognize that those apps are installed on the device and won't notify you of updates, etc.
If you're rooted, you can use titanium backup. Its free and it will update the market place to show the apps installed.

The donate version of Titanium Backup is easily worth 5x the cost.

Let's say for example, that in the future I'll upgrade to the Android 4.0. As far as I know all my info and apps will be lost (I could backup them but I am too lazy). But, will the apps I downloaded remain in my Google account so I can see on the Google Play what apps should I download again?

Only if you paid for them does it really keep track (if you go from your computer you can access the log of apps downloaded and add 'em that way. Or titanium backup pro has one click batch backup/restore...

Data on your internal memory not on your SD card will be wipe out if you upgrade your stock ROM. I just flashed a custom ROM yesterday and my apps installed on my SD card are still there, but of course I also performed a nandroid backup first and titanium backup as well. All the apps I got from Play Store (aka android market) are still showing when you click "My Android Apps" link.
Thanks for the info guys.
I am doing full wipe almost every week because of new developments on Sandvold´s ICS. Is it possible to quickly reinstall all apps and widgets after a full wipe? How?
Titanium backup from market or my backup root what i use because u can just save the app without all the data. Just backup all apps then put the backup file on ur computer, then once u have flashed rom update just download the app again off market then send ur backup file back to ur phone(usb) then using the app to restore apps

For me (using BCM ICS) it works great with the google backup. Just choose to backup settings like apps, Wifi passwords etc via Google. When I enter my google password the first time using the new rom, it asks if it should restore my settings. It then downloads all of my apps directly from the play store. However for most apps it doesn't include your app data, but that's OK for me.

App data? You don't have to restore it. It asks you if you want to.

I have installed Titanium (free version), and it says:
(...)
Hypershell (fast): NO (only for donators)
Apps installation fast/auto: No (Hypershell required)
(...)
I guess Titanium only does the full backup, with fast apps installation if I donate, right?

The free version of Titanium also restores all your apps with data but you have to confirm each app to be restored. This can be somewhat annoying if you have lots of apps to restore.

But I cant find "Google Backup" on play store. What is the name of the app?
PS: Ive already installed Titanium, but I also wanted to know about "Google Backup"
It's not on Play store. It is found under settings in aosp and >= Sense 2.1 roms. It remembers apps list and starts downloading them after you flash a new rom. I hate this feature.
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk 2
Right, it's nothing you need to install. It should be at Settings -> Backup & reset -> "Back up my data".
It can be a bit annoying, especially if your device immediately starts to download tons of data before connecting to wifi, eating up your mobile data limit. (However this backup includes wifi passwords, too). So if you don't have unlimited data, just ensure your device connects to wifi after restoring your google account.
Re:
From what my friend told it should work with the Play Store.
it doesn't seem to be possible with all roms though? Only once my past apps have installed automatically...
Ok so I bought some apps from the market when I was running miui and now that I flashed a new rom those games have disappeared I'm not sure if there is a way to get them back or not but I'm not worried about it. How can I save the new ones I pay for that way when I flash a new rom they will be there??

Anything u purchase or download should be saved under my apps on the play store.
I personally use titanium backup pro to keep all my apps backed up.

+1 titaniumbackup is worth it... get the paid version. ou can do a batch back up, set up a backup schedule and restore apps that you have deleted as long as you have a backup of it. one of the 1st apps i bought and iv never regretted it,
As stated the apps you buy will always be available in the market for re-download but I would suggest at minimum the free version of Titanium Backup. It doesn't have all the features enabled but it will still do the job nicely and will also back up the data in the apps.. You can also D\L ES File Explorer and use the App Manager there to back up just the apps but no data in said apps.
All of your apps (paid and free) should be listed in the market when you hit Menu >> My apps. Personally, I don't recommend restoring all your apps using TB etc. I think it's better to just start fresh and download them again.
However, I do like to backup data with TB (My Backup Pro also good for this). I find there are cases where I do want to restore data for an app.
Wanted to throw an idea out there. Titanium Backup and Mybackuproot take up space, I backup all apps thru attachments on my gmail account. Just log in to account and download, however, cannot backup data this way, but just throwing it out there.
I need to return my phone for a replacement through amazon, and I'm wondering what the best way to backup my phone is? I've tried searching around on XDA and it's a bit overwhelming. HTC and google offer some sort of backup but I'm not sure what is being saved and there are other threads for different phones. If possible, I'd like to just be able get it set up where it's just like I never got a new phone with all the files and settings the same way. Also to have apps backed up too.
My phone is NOT rooted.
Thanks
If you are not rooted, make sure in settings you have enabled Google backup. Once you get your new phone and login with Google account select restore and it will auto download all your apps. But it will not download the app data. There are other solutions like backup apps like helium and titanium backup. I know helium works without root not sure about titanium backup. If you are rooted titanium backup is the best out there and it will restore all the apps and it's data.
The stock Google backup and reset is not good, but that's all we have currently. Hopefully it's better in the next version and we can restore app data as well from Google restore.

Is there an easy way to backup files? I suppose I could just transfer them to a PC but if there's a way I can do it with like with Helium that you suggested, that'd be great.
What about phone settings? Will helium take care of that as well?
Thanks

Is this an app, or is this native to my phone? I see an HTC Backup for HTC One in the Google Play Store
