Good morning guys! Is there any way to save your market apps instead of having to download them everyone you change to a new ROM?

Titanium backup?
Probably the most useful program you will see mentioned all over these forums is "Titanium Backup". It is the best. It will back up all of your apps and the data associated with them. It will also back up your system data, which can be useful if you are restoring to a new device with the same ROM, but can break things (obviously) if you're switching from one ROM to a different one.
The free version of TB will allow you to restore your apps one at a time, and the paid version (recommended) has a batch mode, where you can restore everything in one go.
Of course TB requires a rooted device. If you are not rooted, you could use the backup feature of a program like Astro File Manager, but it is limited. It cannot back up the data for the apps (your Angry Birds high scores will be lost! ), and certain apps are "locked" and cannot be backed up unless you're rooted.
Thanks for the help! I already have the paid version of titanium backup. Just Jane to figure it out now! Lol

Hello everyone! I'm a first-time Android owner, and so obviously this is my first time rooting and first time installing a ROM. That said, I am reasonably tech savvy and read and reread instructions backwards and forwards before doing anything that could possibly brick my phone, so I was able to get as far as installing EaglesBlood without a hitch.
I ran a Nandroid backup and backed up all my apps and system data using Titanium Backup before installing. My question is this: I'm getting ready to restore all my stuff from TB... Do I restore missing apps + system data, or just the apps?
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere... I swear I looked and didn't find a concrete answer for this particular ROM and this particular phone.

I was using the Titanium Backup to restore the apps after installing a new ROM, but it ask permission to install every app (I have about 100 apps).
Do someone know an easy and free way to restore a lot of apps after installing a new ROM?

Look for ic_backup and ic_restore here on XDA. These are flashable zips from recovery. Sorry, cannot upload them atm.

Many thanks!!!
After a little bit of googling I found the ic_backup and ic_restore:

It will be very easy to install a new ROM now
The paid version of Titanium allows batch restore. It will also restore to previous app location (int or sd) if that box is checked.
I'm currently using an older FrostyJB rom and would like to update to the latest version. The problem is that I've spent alot of time tweaking the settings, downloading apps, and tweaking app settings to my liking.
Is there a way I can save all the apps, app settings, and data? That way after I update to the latest rom version, I can just load it up and won't have to fiddle with downloading all the apps and setting them up again.
Nandroid backup!
From cwm (rom manager)or (goo manager) from the playstore! It does a whole backup of all you're stuff.
Also titanium backup's you're apps n stuff. Either or but if u want the whole thing I suggest a NANDROID BACKUP!!!
U BETTER AXXEEEEE SOMEONE ABOUT IT! dont forget it

Titanium backup look up a tutorial vids on YouTube. You can just select backup data and then restore it after wards. Make sure you only select data not system

All of what he said.
Also it might be safe to assume you can just flash over on top of the old version, just don't report bugs if you have some, if things start acting weird and you get force closes, then wipe and start over. Longest run on ever.

Yeah um gonna try that too thanks for sharing.
Yep. Titanium backup is what you need.
Me I use app2zip in order to backup my apps and what i like about it is that it makes a zip that you can flash right after you flash a rom.
It says that if your data is not erase it will restore it but it doesn't work all the time for me so I use a different app to backup apps and phone data to restore them.
More steps than TB but free

I don't think he's looking to restore a full backup such as a nandroid. He's wanting to flash a newer version of a rom and make sure all his settings are the same afterwards. I'm sure he wants to have all his messages and bookmarks and apps and widgets to all be there afterward.
Honestly, I don't think there is such an app as I would have found it by now. I hate flashing rom updates every other day and having to restore my messages (and finding out that the backup is from a week ago so I've lost a bunch), downloading my apps and having to reset the settings (usually forgetting an app or 2 every time), not having my bookmarks anymore, etc.
I know you can restore a lot of this stuff from TB, as I usually do, but I always had worries about restoring things from one build onto another for compatibility reasons and to avoid FC's and such. I don't really think there is a foolproof way of doing what he wants. It's a little safer to do this by hand but inevitably you will lose or forget some things along the way.
Using TB I encountered many problems after a frosty upgrade awhile back. Something about the file system? Has anyone encountered this, as I would also like to upgrade from an old nandroid frosty bk

I agree. I prefer this over TB when it comes to backups but that's my personal preference.

Did you try to restore system data? If so, then that's the problem. Never do that for any reason (when updating the rom).
What I usually do is restore apps like evernote with data basically apps that have info on it. While others ones like Pandora without data in which I could start from Scratch without losing anything. If you want to keep actual settings really I think the only way to do it is if your upgrading the same rom to a different version and rom has to support it.

I have a rooted S6 Edge running android 5.1.1 with 3.10.61-S6_UniKernel_v2-0003_rb kernel. I used Titanium Backup to backup and uninstall a number of Samsung apps. I then began to get messages "Unfortunately Galaxy Apps has stopped".
With the assumption that I had uninstalled the wrong apps, I tried to restore the apps using Titanium Backup. Doesn't work - restore hangs with spinning circles.
Is there an apk I can use to reinstall the Galaxy apps? where?
Thanks, Gus
Did you reboot the phone after un-installing the apps?
