My question is, if i wanna flash a new rom how can i retain those apps and its state (like lvl 2 in a certain game)...is there a way to backup and restore?

Titanium backup in the Market, there's a free and a paid version.

Free version backs it up just as the paid one.
The main difference in the paid version I noticed is when restoring, you don't have to click anything when batch restoring.

With free version you have to backup and restore every App manual.
If you have 100+ Apps, it will take a long time....

No, use titanium backup for that. Stay away from system settings/data cause it will mess things up.

So titanium to backup and restore before and after flash with rom manager, right?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Yes, but also make a nandroid (rom manager backup) for safety before flashing.

I always do a nandroid backup, i think this is the safeest option.

Ya exactly....nandroid is very important.....very safe....

Titanium just backs your apps, fully, with settings & all, so you can restore them when you go from one rom to another. Left my Desire identical to before after installing Leedroid rom: same apps, same settings, wallpaper, shortcuts... Great if you dont want to reinstall & configure apps. But it messed with my Market, obliging me to wipe Market's data & cache from time to time. It is very confusing & I dont know to what degree use it, really.
Nandroid makes a full copy of all your system, and you want to use it when you are not happy with a new rom, or disaster happens, and want to roll back.
So they are meant for different things

Hi,
I'm collecting information about backuping the original rom. I have a brand new Desire and I'd like to root and get some custom rom. Is there any way how to backup my software state for restoring and eventual warranty repairs?
My rom is unavailable everywhere on the Internet. And yes, I did searches but didn't get the full-range answer. Tnx

App question

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

[Q] Cyanogen 7.1 and HTC Sence

Hello, I have HTC Desire HD. I rooted the phone with Ace Hack Kit and installed Cyanogen on the phone. I have a few questions:
1. I did a rom backup with all my apps installed with ROM manager just before I did the install. Then I did the factory erase and did a rom backup again saving it under a different name. My question is when you do a rom backup does it backups everything such as your apps, messages in inbox...
2. On HTC I had HTC sence so If I lose my phone I would be able to trace it and lock it or erase it. Can I install this on Cyanogen?
3. I had some messages in inbox, but they didnt come back when I synhronized. I was wondering if they are stored somewhere in the rom backup and if I can extract them back or I can just install the rom backup?
Thank you all for help

1. Do not know about the sms/mms, but it backs up everything apps ect, and you will find those in clockwork recovery / restore / advanced restore / system /data (i think)
2. Go to the market and install Cerberus, its classed as a free app but it does ask for a 2euro donation to unlock all features, which is the cheapest app on the market for what it offers you in protection with out any monthly fees ect.
3. Text messages are not synced with google servers, if they are stored on the backup i dont know what they would be under maybe someone else can help you out with that one, but imo they are only text messages, im pretty sure it wont be long before someone else texts you again. (You could always in the future use smsbackup and just make a backup before you flash a new rom again)

Try titanium to back everything

1) In my opinion yes, I change it from Titanium Backup
2) MyBackup Root support Apps + data
And about Super Backup - SMS and Logs are stored in XML file - that you can menage it from PC. Contats are in VCF format and can be simple use in other devices.

I dont backup sms etc so dont need that app.
I earlier used titanium backup but its too slow and at times unresponsive.
Then i tried app backup and restore. Its fast but it doesnot back up ( apps + data )
Now gonna try my backup root.
Btw did u exactly understood what i meant by app + data ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda app-developers app

I think yes - Apps and data don't backup in one file. You can restore only App, only data or App+data

Go backup is the best one. And its free!!
Apps+data, calls, wifi, msgs, call logs, all in one.
If u get the paid version u can have wallpaper, settings and online backup too.

E.g if i restore xda app, it wont ask to login again and go directly to favourites.. i want that kind of app.
Titanium backup can do that but as i already mentioned its a bitslow.
"App backup and restore" only backs up app. I.e like downloading an app...
Does Go backup restores app+data or only app ?
