AKOP apps restore - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I recently installed the newest aokp as of 7-11-12 release and was trying to restore apps from tb off a gb rom I was using (calks el29) I get them to restore everything works fine but when I restart the phone certain apps that require install to sd such as aldiko or some games are gone any ideas on how to restore them hopefully one that doesn't involve me having do do everything over again thanks in advance for the help

Dont do that. Install your apps from scratch to make sure they don't screw anything up.
ICS and GB are different OS's

That really doesn't tell me much. I I've been restoring with no problems since android 2.1 Ive restored on ics builds built on stock with no probs its only with aokp and cm9

Just installed aldiko fresh then imported the books (which installs to sd card) and restarted and it still didn't stick

[Q] Can you force APK's on ICS rom??

Half of my APK's i saved through TB. But on a ICS rom, more than half of the apps i use actively dont work. Is there a way to force them on and work fine?
Elaborate on "don't work" please. I had trouble restoring with TB, this is what I did. I unmounted sd card and restored all user apps + data without issue. This is a workaround for the repair kernel, it also (obviously) saved everything to phone storage. So I flashed the stock no cwm kernel and moved then to sd

You are probably using the repack rogue kernel. Unmount SD card by going to settings - storage - unmount. Try restoring again

[Q] Using Ti Backup from GB to ICS?

Sorry noob here but it's my understanding that I can't back up my App data and upgrade to ICS from GB, Is that correct? Is their anyway of updating to ICS and keep app data? I'm rooted and running Juggernaut ROM.
I believe most user apps and data can be restored from GB to ICS, just don't restore any system app, and keep in mind that some apps and games may not be compatible with ics and that's going to make the restoring batch get stuck, just keep that on mind

Will it Brick or Soft brick my phone if i redo a batch and it's not compatible do you know?
If you restore system apps or their app data, then it is likely, but if restored user apps have compatibility issues then you'll mostly get force closes.

quick reference
I do suggest referencing this post which has so far the best route if you're going your route. I have been able to upgrade and keep all the data using the stock upgrade in Kies for two other phones (not mine) and they have not had any issues.
I went the odin flash route and just want to remind you to wipe all the system partitions (I used Darkside SuperWipe) then flash Radio then flash ROM
hope that saves you some time.
Thanks Guys!!
Yeah, just hit batch and restore missing apps w/data. You'll be fine.

That's what I used. However the only constant between all of the roms I've used has been my backup and restoring of my apps. Right after I posted this It occurred to me I might have an app thats causing the problem. Right after I installed the ff18 rom I did a nandroid backup before I loaded any backup. I'm going to reload that nandroid then use the system like normal and see if the error occurs. Once I get to a point in my day where I don't NEED the phone ill try it.

What are you using for backup/restore?
If you're using Titanium Backup, I believe one fix is just restoring Missing data+apps. Do not restore system data and see if that helps.
If you're using Nandriod advanced restore, you should be fine if the backup was on ICS and you're on ICS, but have seen a few issues with that. Oddball stuff.

Im coming from gb el29 stock tw.
I use mybackup pro. I opted not to restore system settings for fear that might have caused the problem.
Where can I find nandroid advanced restore? Sounds like a good app to have.
Update:
As an experiment I tried using just just a few of the Apps That I was getting This error using, Facebook tapatalk and browser. I started using just 1 app at a time. I browse to have a lease for facebook posts and I've been using tapatalk sent this morning . Neither app gave me the error that I was getting. Then I started browsing heavily hey there my error has popped up several times in the course of a few minutes.

Its in the custom recovery itself. I'm running the kuban kernel. I believe agats has it as well.
:edit: I failed to mention that if you don't have a currnet , good, nandroid backup, it won't help you in your current state.

Thanks! I figured if restoring my apps are giving the fault then I can't rely on the nandroid backup either.
EDIT: SOLVED!
Since I narrowed the fault down to the internet browser I cleared the cache and data and it seemed to fix it!
Thank you all for the help and suggestions!

Going from 4.2 back to 4.1

So I'm on cm10.1 and I'm wanting to go back to 4.1 probably frosty jb. Am I able to just flash frosty from twrp or do I have to odin 4.1 first??
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
just flash the 4.1 after wiping everything including internal and external storage, (I do and suggest it). This way the emulated/0 folder wont be there and cause you to clutter the threads up. Of course back up your both of your storage areas, if you choose to wipe them.
Beware, it seems going back from 4.2 to 4.1 could break your GPS. If that happens, you can look in the General section on a possible fix.
You can install any Rom with twrp whether you are going from 2.3.2 to 4.2 or vice versa.
-------------------------------------
ROM: All-star ROM v7
Kernel: Lighting
Radio: LB7 blaze

I'm trying to make an app, message if you are willing to help!

Yup I have just be sure to wipe cache dev cache and delete data a couple times before and after. You should be OK.

I also flashed the 4.2 rom when I was experimenting when I first got my phone. When I flash back to 4.1.1 I had the emulated /0 folder. At that time I just copied everything out of that folder into the internal. Problem with that is the /0 folder can not be deleted. I have been wondering what is the best method to format internal sd. I am currently on Frosty rom and I have nothing to lose in my internal that can't be replaced. Can I just format and reboot system or do I need to reflash rom after deleting internal? On other devices I have had there was always a risk of bricking if you formatted internal. I would appreciate any advice so that I don't mess up my phone. Thanks is advance. BTW I use TWRP as my recovery method.

Thanks for all the help. Wiping data and both caches worked perfectly fine to get back to 4.1

Hey is Bluetooth working in 4.1 cm10? Specifically the music streaming to blue tooth?
Just went back to stock for Bluetooth but I hate stock...
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Imma say... going from 4.2.1 back to 4.1 was a b!tch. Caused me to have to start all over. And as another individual stated above, there is an emulated /0/ folder that 4.2 uses due to the new profile architecture. Basically you wiping your phone, it leaves a copy of your SD card in the /0/. The restore process in CWM (I've not used TWRP on my GS3 so I can't speak for it), it breaks the restore process as CWM can't read from other than it's predefined restore location. Now I've read on the Nexus 7 forums that do restore, you could potentially make a copy of your CWM folder from /0/ into your base sd folder.
I guess just play around with it, but personally I recommend not jumping to 4.2.1. I personally had to ODIN back to stock and wipe everything and start over cuz I ran out of space to move files and it just took too long since each time you wipe, it would embed everything in a /0/ and eventually the copies just overwhelmed.
But basically key understanding of this whole restore/downgrade issue is 4.2.1's profile architecture dumping all your SDcard (phone) content into /0/ and your CWM is used to restoring from SD/clockworkmod/backup rather than looking @ SD/0/clockworkmod/backup.
I flash from 4.2.1 to 4.1.1 and back all the time... Never ever had an issue

ICS -> Gingerbread

Please forgive me if I've missed this. Tried looking/searching and came up empty.....
I've been on the UKB & Tazz ICS ROMS for a while now but, just out of curiosity, wanted to go back to Gingerbread (Nits', to be specific). Anyway, I restored the backup of Nits' GB and had significant problems, like Gmail FC, etc.. I suspect it's because I installed the ICS firmware along the way but not real sure. Is there a way to get back? I have not tried fully reinstalling the GB ROM yet, just restoring. Been on skiing and didn't have the time to try different permutations.
Any ideas/experience appreciated.
EDIT: Mod, meant for Q&A, feel free to move.

If you restored app data from ICS that could be causing the FC. The firmware makes no difference because I am also running Nis' cm7 with ICS firmware.
You should also have done a full wipe (meaning system, data, cache, and dalvik) before restoring your backup.
If all else fails, do a full wipe now and a clean install. Maybe even use the SuperDuperWipe script from the dev section.

Thank you both. I'll should have some time this week to try again.
Re: ICS -> Gingerbread
Just to follow up. After a full wipe & restore I had to remove/reinstall a few apps that were the problem. The last hour all has been going well.
Thanks again.
