All my apps on new roms

Can someone tell me how go put all my apps somewhere whenever I flash a new rom? I always have to download everything again-_- and also my gmail contacts aren't saved from where they were saved on previous roms..any help? Thanks

Titanium Backup does this. You can backup/restore apps & settings. Also, you can extract the .apk files and copy them to your sd card.

I'll second the Titanium Backup recommendation, makes it easy to get your apps back where they were after your flash a new ROM or wipe. It's a must have app for any Android phone IMO and is good enough to be a sole reason for rooting (I rooted my mom's OG Droid just so she could use TB)

Is there a auto install for titanium? Instead if running batch and clicking install for every app?

The paid version doesn't require you to click install for every app (it's a true batch operation).

Do i need the premium key??

make sure that your data and contacts are syncing with google, you can do that by menu>settings>accounts>autosync

[Q]Can't get Tap Tap Revenge to download on market. Please help.

Wasn't sure which thread this should be in so I posted it here as my question. Please feel free to move it.
I just noticed that this game is now available for us. By when I retro download it in the market it won't download. It starts then quites(as do some other apps for some reason.) Is there another place or way I can download the game??

you said other apps, do all apps not download? I ask this because a few weeks back my market wouldnt download any apps and I had to wipe everything and reflash. Turns out it was an app causing the problem when I used titanium backup to restore apps. Just a thought if that is your problem. Oh and to answer your main question, if its not what I previously mentioned then I suppose you could check androidzoom or app brain, I think they do stuff with apps. Last resort, check 4shared.com

I say its about 90% of apps I try to download. Mainly it seems to be the ones I want, but if I pick any random app it'll download.

You can try clearing your market cache, force stop it, the try again; or the above listed methods.

Probably going to have to move all your apps over to your phone and delete the android_secure folder. Then reboot and give it a try. Sounds like that folder got corrupted. Pretty common occurrence.

I've never put apps on the SD card, so I should be all set to do thY. But by erasing that folder would it erase anything on the phone?

Nope won't erase anything. Once you delete that folder (while nothing is in there)you will be good after reboot. It won't erase anything and it will create a new one once you start downloading again. Give me a few minutes and ill send ya the link
Here ya go. This will explain it all. I've had to do it 3-4 times with all the flashing I've done. This is the "more permanent fix" http://forum.androidcentral.com/gen...not-downloading-installing-image-warning.html

Followed step by step and I get "error deleting files". I'm using the free version of Astro to delete it because ES File Explorer doesn't even show the folder.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Not sure why es wouldn't be showing it under SD card files. Have you checked into maybe getting astro pro, or root explorer? If not, sure you could use adb to erase it.

I've deleted the folder and restarted and they still don't download, repeated process, and still no luck. Guess I gotta reflash :/
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Dang that sucks. Make sure you clear the data for the market and once one starts downloading, cancel it. Then try again right after you cancel it.

This probably won't help you any but just a heads up, you'll probably have a ton of download#.apk files in /sdcard/downloads

Never cleared market cache before, how do I go about doing that??

Only thing I can thing to do is maybe delete the market and pull another market .apk from somewhere and reinstall the market if nothing else has worked.

Well, I don't have a fix for your problem, but here's Tap Tap Revenge if you haven't found it yet...

That game is way too addicting.
You could try using App Brain & Fast Web Installer to download apps. It actually works better/faster for me than downloading from the market. If you need the apks for those apps I can post them for you.

how to extract the rom off my evo

how do I extract the rom in my evo, so I can do more mod on my pc?
Sent from my pimp out evo using xda premium

You can just take the apk's that you want to mod out and mod them that way I'm not much of a themer to help you with that.
To remove apps that you don't want or anything you don't want you can use a file manager with root like es or root explorer and just delete them.
You can also just do this to the ROM before you flash it using 7zip or something similar.

I was able to remove apps with scrip manager, but to add apps that I want like the new htc music from sense 3.5 "they call it listen" I couldn't add it. I used app manager to install it, but it would say, app did not install 8(

I'm not real good with that stuff but I on don't think you can have 2 htc music apks at the same time also if its not for that ROM I would think it might need to be signed the right way not sure on that.
But you can try putting it in system/app then change permissions to rw-r-r then reboot .
Make sure you have a backup messing with things like that.

Odd file appeared in my storage?

I was transferring music to me phone, and I saw a file called "and me.destroying" and it's kinda worrying me. Should I delete it ASAP? And if known, what does it do?

What does your heart tell you to do? Lol I'm kidding.. Do you to think you down loaded any apps that would have something to do with it? Go through the file and see what's in it, see if you ecognize anything
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Delete it. If an app needs it, it will just recreate it. No worries, people format sdcards all the time so no critical app data is on the removable storage unless you moved the app to the sdcard.

Perhaps you could copy it to your PC and share it so we might see what it is?

What is changing to a new rom going to do for him? If his music is gone it's gone... Unless I'm missing something? Why isn't your music on your computer or somewhere else? How did you get it on your phone, lol? If it some where and you can't find it, pull everything from your storage places and put them on your PC and search both files with in your computer search index and see if you can find them... If they are there, then create a folder named /music and you will good to go. If they aren't there then get new music or however you got them there in the first place.

I would start putting the music somehwere other then only on phone storage, just in case. I've accidentally wiped internal storage once, and I've had External sdcards go bad or just randomly out of no where lose all data in it. make a dropbox and do TiBu once a week and move them there your self with some type of file manager if you don't wanna pay the money for Titanium Backup pro. I also bet all your stuff is there you are just looking in the wrong places. What file manager are you using to look for your "lost stuff"?

Aokp is awesome ROM. I dont mean to be rude but if you think those files are still there (in your phone) ;install different ROm or restore backup and pull al data from it. And wipe both internal and external cards. Amd install aokp and enter those files again via PC.
