can you attach screenshot of backup/Restore page of titanium backup?
and have you check size of titanium backup folder?

Sir I also had taken a backup from Cwm recovery mode however as soon as I went to paranoid the restoration process showed no files present there.

You don't have any backup on device
Have you wiped device?
I think you have lost all backup when you have factory reset
It is advisable to make backup storage on ext sd card

Go to preference and then go backup location. Then click on detect and search whole device. Once located just Click on it and it will show up on the restore menu.. If you backed up on your external memory or internal memory without formatting it during the installation then it should be there.

Question about titanium backup key root

If I flash a rom and empty all data, then wouldn't the backups be erased too? Is there any way I could transfer the backup files from phone to pc?
Titanium backs up to your sd card

Custom recoveries don't touch the "sdcard" when doing a factory reset.
In other words all you have to do is wipe all your data and flash a new ROM or whatever you want to do. Boot up and open the play store and download titanium backup and batch restore all your apps back.
Yes, but doing backups to external source is not a bad idea. Always.
You can also backup to dropbox.

Kies backup or Nandroid?

Alright so I'm on JB, rooted, Kt kernel and I wanted to factory reset my phone to see if battery life will improve because I've heard it works for some.
My question is, is it better to backup through Kies, reset, and restore from kies backup or will I risk bringing back theb (maybe) source of problems by doing it that way?
Or suck it up and restore from a TWRP or CWM backup. The only reason I prefer the Kies backup is because I hardly have enough memory left on my SD card to hold a Nandroid backup.
Thoughts?

I always hate dealing with kies but i get the issue of memory. That's why i like extra sd card space makes it easier for backups. I prefer cwm but its Ur call

Do a nandroid on external SD that's where I do mine. Also use titanium you can back it up to dropbox , box or Google.

Nandroid on external sd. As far as the pictures go. I have mine default save to the sd. I normally do not format the external sd during restores, backups or rom swaps. So the pictures always remain.
However, one time I left the the sd card installed when I was returning to stock via oden. It wiped both internal and external. So now when oden is involved I pull the external. Just to be sure.

So now to my understanding in TWRP the option to create image.zip is just creating a backup that I can flash right through Odin like a rom as opposed to the option to create a backup?
What can I do with that option to create a backup? Is that also an odin flashable zip?

Usually Odin doesn't flash zips but it creates a flash able zip through cwm

Yea I meant CWM. Thats the recovery I had installed that allowed me to create the image.zip
So basically that just creates the exact state that my phone is in and allows me to flash it via cwm to get right back to that state.

ROM Toolbox Pro backup data/app

Sup,
I have the latest version and I just can't figure out how to backup my data with my apps... With the older versions it would give me the option, now its just a generic backup... When I went from 4.2.2 to 4.3 just my apps were backed up... Any help is appreciated! Thanks

I think if you enable root in the settings it will backup data with the app automatically. Some other options are es3 file explorer which can also do app + data or nandroid manager which can restore apps+data from a nandroid backup.
Yep, it backs up app data automatically. If you go to App Manager > Batch Operations > Backup, you'll see you can redo backups for new data. I do that every once in awhile.
I've had thus issue since 4.3 too. I choose to backup app+data, then when I restore I only get the app restored no data, tried several times.

Wiping and Restoring?!

After flashing a Rom and then wiping my data. What's the easiest way to restore that data??
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Also I have Arabic language installed (which I want to keep),will it get deleted when wiping my data?
P.S: the language was installed with the phone,I did not install it manually.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
If you are rooted with a custom recovery just make a nandroid before you install your new rom then you can restore your phone exactly as it was. To restore your data/apps back them up first with titanium backup then you can restore them after you install your new rom

Two best apps for restoring data are Titanium backup and Helium Backup.
1. Titanium backup: required root. Does all kind of backups.
2. Helium backup: required nonrooted and rooted phones. As it works with nonrooted phones, you can even backup after unrooting phone.
sent from my GT-N7100. Press thanks if I helped..
As above said , and just incase you lost arabic language and your device is rooted
use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wanam
will get any language you want

Backup

Ok this is really bothering me I use TB for my backups for my apps. When I flash a new Rom and I go to reinstall my apps they are not there because you have to do a full wipe when flashing a Rom so how can I flash a Rom and be able to reinstall my apps and games with the data with them. Like games I lose all my saved points

Maybe I'm missing something but I back up my tb on my sd card so a full wipe only effects the internal storage.
When I back up with tb it saves to my internal not my external card I have always used tb never any problems is there a way to back up to my external? So what I did last night is back up my game real racing 3 moved it to my external card flashed a Rom installed tb and it did not pick it up on my card moved back to internal card and it picked it up. So I restored it and all it restored was the app no data so I lost my cars and everything. So I went back to stock cause I made a back up and I have all my stuff but if I want to flash a Rom I will lose my game data

You have to go to preferences and set backup folder to external card. After flashing, reinstall TiBu. Do preferences again, detect whole device, select backup location, say use current folder and you should see your backups.
