So am about to get the 4G N7105 to replace my N7100. On the N7100 I have my apps backed up on Titanium to me ext sd card. To save me the hassle of transferring the apps and resetting the phone up with my apps can I simply root the N7105 and transfer the apps only via Titanium?? Thanks.

You can transfer apps to any Android device. You can even transfer apps and their settings for example from HTC HD2 with Android 2.2 to Galaxy Note 10.1 with Android 4.1.1

Thank you. So just root phone, install Titanium, point it to the Titanium backup in the ext sd card and restore?

Don't reinstall the system apps and settings, just the ones from the Play Store etc.

No I don't want to use Playstore if possible. As the thread said I want to see if I can restore via TiBu and just use the 'restore missing apps with data' option not system settings.
That's what I meant. Good luck with new phone.

How to use Mybackup Pro
hey guys!
I have just got mybackup pro and I am having some issues here. When I tried to do a backup to my local computer, I got the following message... failed or can't create.... path does not exist for all of my apps. Could someone assist me here with a step by step guide on how to use it?

Am I the only one having an issue with a advance restore of data after upgrading to a ICS rom? How do I go about just restoring contacts,sms and other data without causing a boot loader problem.

Restore your GB backup and go to the playstore and download sms backup and call log backup apps. They work great and save everything in xml format. And you cant restore data from a GB rom to an ICS rom.
One easy way I always do to backup my contacts and sms is go into contacts, then select options and tap backup and backup to sd card.
Then factory restore/ install a new rom and then just restore your contacts from your sd card.
Hope I helped you out.
titanium backup will work in most cases. restore app first, and if you absolutely must, restore data for apps one at a time in case any apps dont play nice.
Thanks guys

For reference when the ROM has a different base, you should avoid advance restoring because well... Different base. You can usually restore user apps+data with back up apps though

hi im new to the forum and the android world, but isnt you can synch all your contact with Gmail , and when you add your gmail account all your contacts will be there? also apps i believe you can move to SD and files as well and just when loading t the new ROM will be there when you mounted the SD. please correct me if im wrong .
i used to be a iPhone user and itunes let you do your back up is a way to do the same with the android where you just hit one buttom and everything gets backe up and to restore is also 1 click

Yes contacts sync through google
No, apps will not carry over between roms regardless of their location. Look into titanium backup or similar apps
Again, titanium backup. For one click restores, you'll need the pro version. Well worth it.

So I am about to get a GS3, and I currently have a GS2. I was wondering if anybody successfully backed up their apps and app data on one phone using Titanium Backup, moved the backup to a new a different type of phone, and then restored the apps and app data to the new phone.
I carried a backup from my HTC One X to the sgs3 and it worked fine. I only backed up user apps and their data.

I backed up 80+ apps from my HD2 running Ginger Bread with Titanium Backup and restored to my new S3...no problems. What a terrific app!!! A few of the apps/games did not work perfect...but even after fresh installs, they had the same bugs....so that was just app incompatibility and not due to TiB.
I'm doing this exact same thing later today. Do I just need to save my GS2 sdcard folder to my pc then transfer it to my new GS3 and then use TB restore? Also, is there a good way to clean out my GS2 so it's like stock or do I simply delete everything in the sdcard folder? I'm giving my GS2 to my gf and basically want it clean slate for her (not unrooted though).

Why not just format the SD card from the settings menu?

Easiest way to do it,yep. Just make sure you transferred everything you want to keep first.
As got the apps, you are correct. Just move your TitaniumBackup folder to the new phone. You may have to manually select the folder as the one to use in TiBu, but that's about it. I've moved mine from a Captivate to an HTC Inspire to my S3 with no problems.

Actually, you may not even need to manually select the folder in TiBu. When I moved mine from my Captivate to my S3, I didn't need to select. It just knew. I put it in the smae exact spot on the internal sd card as it was on the Cappy.
I usually keep mine on external sd, probably why..
Just got done rooting my ATT GS3, and flashed Cyanogenmod10 onto it. Before I did a full Titanium Backup, and did a backup of my previous ROM on CWM. When I got everything sorted in Cyanogenmod I noticed that my contacts weren't syncing, so I tried to restore them with Titanium Backup. All this did was give me an annoying error where something kept crashing, so I had to clear the data from my contacts app.
Then I found somebodies advice on the forum that said the restore the data from the recovery image I had on CWM. This was terrible advice and left Cyanogenmod frozen on the splash screen. So I reinstalled CM10 and got everything working fine again. Now my question is, is there any way to get my contacts back from my previous stock image, or the backup I made in Titanium before I flashed CM10? I've looked around and haven't found anything that works yet
Thanks

Your contacts will sync the second you enter your gmail info. Google syncs and backs them up automatically.

When I try to back up Contacts Storage and reboot, contacts crashes and then I continuously get the message processes.acore has stopped working. The only way I can get this to stop is if I clear data from the contacts app
Ok. Another way when moving between ROMs.
Install GoContacts free app. This app allows to export contacts and import after a new ROM flash. The safest method i can think of.

Any of the Go apps are far from safe.
This is why it is known to never restore any system data.

I never told to use it. Install it, export, freeze/uninstall. And when needed, install/defreeze, import, uninstall/freeze. Simple. Plus I use GoContacts from over an year ago, not the GoContactsEx version.

A general query.
I switched from samsung Y pro DUOS to samsung grand quattro. I had my old device rooted and had a titanium backup. That folder is also available in my laptop. Is there any way to have my contacts etc back again on my new quattro??
Btw, previous device got washed thoroughly! So all i have is a "titanium backup" folder.
PS: In no mood to root my new device.

Did you backup with contacts to your google account? If so, that's a way to get them back.
Otherwise, you'll have to root your device.
P.S.: This is the S3 section.
Another sort of general question on doing app+system data full backup on the SG3 using Titanium
Assuming I own the 16GB version, I've rooted and installed custom recovery on the device. I've done a custom recovery backup (TWRP or whatever)
Now I'm ready to install my custom rom zip and gapps, but say I have like 100+ downloaded apps with app data & whatnot, so I have Ti Backup installed and do a complete 'apps+system data' backup file...
but my internal 16GB memory doesn't have enough spare room to store the complete Ti backup file in addition to my existing system files, existing custom recovery backup file and existing apps and data/junk. And my options for cloud storage, lets say Google Drive or Dropbox, don't have enough room either.
Is my external SD card (say a 32 GB card in the slot) and option for backup of the Ti backup app+system data file? Will that Ti backup file be readable by the phone once I flash the custom rom on the phone? Or does stock ROM touchwiz format the external microSD card a certain way that once I flash a different custom ROM like CM, that external SD card and all its data is now unreadable?

No the external will work fine as that was always my default storage location. But a word of advice. Backing up your system data is a bad idea.

Ive heard that (danger or being caught in bootloop?) but for some reason every youtube tutorial on full Ti backups I see they always choose apps+system data in the batch operations. And I've been doing it on my rooted HTC one with no issues.

Never follow videos, they are seldom done by anyone that really knows what they are doing. The issue is with restoring the data. Like you say you are doing it on your HTC one. If you were to restore that system data on a non HTC device or a non Sense rom (if you are using a sense rom) you will corrupt the system data forcing you to reflash from scratch.

Yes your better off saving just user apps. This normally backs up game save data as well but doesnt always work across devices due to different layouts of the partitions.

Can't find my contacts
So I have a Verizon Samsung galaxy s4 model SCH-I545 NC5. I used the towelroot method and then I used safestrap to flash Hyperdrive onto it. Everything worked fine but then I looked at my contacts and hardly any of them were there. I had previously backed up my data but I can't seem to find the contacts. I used titanium backup and the safestrap backup. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

You're in the S3 section (SGH-I747). But that being said, if you had your Google account connected to your device, it should restore all your contacts you had on it.
So can you backup and restore contacts using Titanium Backup?
Considering the phone isn't rooted, I assume I won't be able to use Titanium. Is there any other app that doesn't require root where I can backup the data from my apps to restore on the Note 4?

Just got off the phone with Samsung support...the absolute best way to back up everything on the phone is to use samsungs homegrown app...
go to www.samsung.com/us/kies
It didn't work that well in the mac environment. but once we switched out to windows 8.1 it worked great..I had a problem with S-voice that stopped working and talking back to me...they couldn't figure out what was wrong..so we backed up everything...contacts, messages, photos, videos, app's you name it..music ect ect...it takes about 10 minutes to complete...backup all of it..don't do individual things...once that's done...we wiped the phone..restored it...apparently even on the At&T phone you can get into it..to also enable ADB....im assuming that's where someone will be able to get root access....then when its finished we restored it..and it restored everything including my apps...from unknown sources . The program on that page is KIES and that's what you need to run. don't mess with anything else. Hope this helps all.
I think I may go with helium. I'm on a custom rom so no sure how well kies will work for me?
