[Q] Titanium backup breaking MMS? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I've had this problem on every ROM I've tried but one. Everything is working fine until I restore apps with titanium backup then MMS won't send. They just hang. I don't know what app is doing it or if it's just the act of restoring the data. Really giving me fits. The only ROM that MMS worked after the restore was CleanRom 2.0. I thought it may have had something to do with touchwiz since I did not have it on that install, but further testing has shown that is not the case. I'm stumped. Any Ideas?

I've restored 3 times and is worked every time for me so I can say it does work. Not store what to tell you add to why yours is having issues. Maybe check the apn and make sure incorrect settings aren't getting restored or changed.

Are u guys restoring system apps ?

Don't restore system apps, system data or system processes with Tibu. User apps and data only. Restoring system apps will cause some of them not to work, and can destabilize your ROM. Fixing permissions doesn't solve it.
Do a full, clean wipe reinstall and restore only user apps. You'll have to re-do your system settings manually, yeah, but that takes ten minutes or so if you note what you've done down before wiping.

Ya....What he said

Restored system data only and apps and data but I only restored system data that I needed like email accounts and stuffand everything works perfectly.

Nnn

I'm an idiot
Just found the problem. It seems AdblockPlus was blocking mms (wtf?) but once I turned it off they went just fine.
I never restore system data/apps... just user apps and I only restore data to games I have put a lot of time in or others that would take too long to restore the hard way.

Need to do it this way

Synergy rom

Just wanted to know if anyone else had issues with this rom endlessly force closing and rebooting until you pull battery. And if so were you able to fix or correct it?

When you flashed the ROM did you go into recovery and wipe/factory reset and wipe dalvik cache (found in advance)? You have to do that before flashing to different ROM's.
Another issue that may have caused it is if you did a restore of all your apps with Titanium Backup. I'm guessing it's the second one because that happens a lot when you overwrite apps that came with the ROM.
I prefer to redownload all my apps manually and I only use Titanium backup to restore the data portion of the app after I installed it. An example would be restoring my data for the game Angry Birds so I don't have to start the whole game all over again.
Yeah I wiped everything its not my first rom but I think it was when I did my restore from titanium backup

I'm having the same problem. If i try to restore data from a nandroid backup it either never boots or the screen stays black. I need all my backed up data so unless this get fixed i can't play with it. I was really looking forward to making that rom my daily too!
I had the same issues when i tried gengersense originally.... defiantely the titanium backup issues... i've started only using that as a good list of apps and for user data. I've used it to restore apps sometimes they don't end up working right. BTW even the synergy nightlies work well enough to be a daily... my favorite rom yet.
Plus one on the titanium.
When coming from a different rom, only restore apps and app data, kind of a hassle but dont restore settings, it jacks stuff up

[Q] Titanium Backup message history

I'm using Cyanogen 6.1 and I've backed up with TB. Which line contains my backed up messages?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Im wondering that too. I just loaded a new rom and lost all my messages. I don't remember this happenning in the past.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I didn't know Titanium backed up messages glad i looked at this thread
If, for example, you were on Cyanogen 6.1.1, backed up everything, wiped and flashed it back from scratch, then batch restored everything and rebooted, you would get your messagees back. However, if you do something like that, it's probably because you were having issues, and you likely DON'T want to restore everything.
Does nobody know the answer to this?
There are 2 backups that start with [SMS...] one is dialer storage which I think holds the messages. The other says prefs so I assume it's just message settings. I restore both so I can't tell you exactly which one it is.
They are both green by the way. One is a bit further down the list from the other.

Going try cm10 just one question

What is the best way to restore data backup from a tw rom without getting a bunch of force closing. I know about restoring apps with data from TB but I rather restore my entire setup. With having to set up my screens all over

Restoring screens and settings is always problematic, especially when going between ROM types (TW and CM10).
Best case for restoring screens is using a launcher that allows you to back up the home screens.
Restoring settings is best done manually.
Restoring apps can use TB or Mybackup root, or any number of other backup apps.

What's the first thing you do after flashing a ROM?

I personally delete all the unnecessary apks and leave only the barebones.
I flash gapps
No but seriously, I usually install some sort of sound enhancer followed by an entire day of tweaking and customizing to my heart's content.

Reboot the phone.
Next question?
I let all of my apps download from the play store then use GO Backup to restore sms and app data.
Cross my fingers and hope it boots

Expand? What do you tweak..? ROM?
I have CM10 but have never changed anything about it besides the kernel.
Restore my play store apps, restore NOVA backup, make my desired changes in ROM control, and install/tweak my kernel.
remove bloatware and apps i dont use
Play xbox for 15 minutes while phone reboots, restore my apex settings and desktop, restore my apps with titanium backup, restore contacts, and then restore my texts. Lastly, enjoy the new, smooth rom.
I check all cracks and scratches after in frustration that I can't install Rom correctly was throwing my phone around.
Like all above . Restore my data and apps

I set up my google account for my contacts and calendar. I use Titanium Backup to uninstall and freeze unneeded apps and to restore my apps and data. Restore SMS. After that I set my screens to my liking and enjoy my new ROM.

Titanium backup and downloading any missing apps from google play> my apps>all ( If I d/l an app, dont like it and uninstall it it still appears under "my apps>all" which is a bit inconvenient since i wont use it or need it. BUT these can be deleted manually so I keep this neat by only having the apps I use here. Makes the restore/update process MUCH easier.)
I also synch google account for contacts/calendar
Once it is all to my liking I performa a FULL clockwork backup. This way the ROM is nice and clean and set up when it is time to restore at a later point.

Best way to move app data from old phone?

Hello
I just got my note 2, moving on from the Galaxy S2 running CM 10.1. I have not rooted my phone yet but tried us my backup pro. It worked except for none my apps have my old data, such as saved games. I had problems with this before with titanium pro. Has anyone tried google backup or any other suggestions?
Thanks.

Download the app on your new phone and sign in with the same account thats linked to the old phone

I do it with Titanium backup. It works fine. Apps are fairly easy to restore with data. Big games are much more troublesome. Their data are bigger and store in different areas so no so easily backed up.
If you haven't rooted yet, try Carbon. It doesn't require you to be rooted to backup apps and data.
