If I'm moving from GB to ICS can I restore my user apps with data from my titanium backup?
I can understand not restoring system apps but cannot logic out why the data from a user app would be OS specific.
Sorry for such a basic question

Yeah but only user apps, don't attempt to restore system apps though cuz that'll mess up your phone

I have installed the FF18 twice through the Odin restore installer using the one that does not preserve data, and the first time it will boot fine. But then I will restore apps with Titanium and try to reboot and it will not get past the first Samsung splash screen. Has anyone else had this issue?

Did you try to restore apps with data? And did you try to restore system data? I'd say Odin back to FF18 and just restore apps only no data restore. That maybe is causing the problem.

I restored user apps with data, no system apps or data. I will try and see if this works. I also was setting a custom DPI with DPI changer, if that could have an effect.

If those are apps that were on GB they dont play well and you have to do a fresh install.

I have utilized the search function and found 1-2 threads on acceptable apps to remove. However, there were none that I found that were specific to the Sprint GS3. Can I still resort to the other threads or should I just wait until one developes for the Sprint variant?
Thanks in advanced!

Can we get a dev to help us out with this? I am especially interested in how to stop Chat On from re-installing
there are roms that are already debloated which you might want to check out.. Blazer rom is pretty popular. if you read through the post, there is a zip file with all the bloat removed.. you can use it as a reference.

Yep...I was gonna say the same. And if there were no complications after freezing them, then it's backup and uninstall. Always worked for me...no problem.
Brought to ya by way of my GS3 from T-town, OK.

You can also disable them in your applications menu if you're on a stock rom. Essentially its the same as freezing in TB

Rom Toolbox LIte
I usually use Rom Toolbox Lite or Titanium to remove the apps that I do not want. Works great. I always reboot after. I highly recommend the Jellybomb Domination ROM. It is becoming a great rom and he removes all the bloated stuff that we don't want or need.
Hey guys im gonna flash a new Rom and I need to know what file to restore so I can get my shorcuts backs on my home screen.
I used to restore apps and system data but they cause a problem. So im restoring just apps and data but I need to get my shorcuts back.
Thanks.

If you are using a third party launcher like Nova etc. , TB would backup its settings

Assuming you are using the built-in TouchWiz launcher, backup system data of TouchWiz.

Since the upgrade to 4.3 OTA I've tried the CM11 nightlies a couple of times. They aren't quite ready for my taste yet, so I restore the stock 4.3 from CWM.
I then spend the next 15 minutess or so with gapps & my launcher force closing repeatedly. But usually after a while it will stop almost as suddenly as it started.
Has anyone else noticed anything like this?
The only thing that absolutely prevents it is a clean wipe after the restore. That rather negates the idea of a nabdroid backup in my mind though..

I can't possibly be the only one who has seen this, can I?

Have you tried wiping the dalvik or a fix permissions after the restore? Seeing as how data, system and cache are auto wiped with a restore this is all I could think of that may cause this.

Is Dalvik not also wiped?

Not really, but depends on what you plan on doing

Titanium backup is to back up apps and data or settings that you like. I wouldn't recommend restoring a backup to a different ROM. For example let's say I'm on wicked right now and I made a backup with titanium backup. It wouldn't be wise to move to darthstalker and restore it. It will most likely conflict with other Roms. As long as you keep track of what ROM the backup goes to you should be fine.
