I been searching the forum and having a hard time looking for the type of help I need. I have a Desire Z running Cyanogen Mod I think version 9. I want to back everything up and restore it to an HTC One. What is the best/easiest method? I want to keep ALL apps/data. Will Rom Manager or Titanium Backup do the Trick?
I would advise against it, not only are you going from one phone to another but different android versions. If it were me I would just install apps from market and then set up everything fresh, but feel free to try titanium, some of it could restore ok

hello,
despite asking a million questions about the process, i still haven't rooted, so my phone is as stock as stock gets. anyways so my girlfriend plays frozen bubble on my phone and she is at lvl 70 and she really wants to continue that even after the phone updates to froyo. so is there any way i can back the state of this particular app with all its settings and whatnot and restore it..
i dont want to save all my apps because i would much rather start customizing a clean phone, i just want to save this one app.
how do i do it?
thanks.

i just rooted and then turned S-OFF
now im about to remove some apps, then i will install titanium backup, backup this one app, and then restore the stock recovery.
Let it backup everything as it is.
You don't have to restore everything. You can use it to restore just one app if you want.
That way, if you remove the wrong thing you can restore it.
I rooted my phone with revolutionary and switched to cm7. I origanally used my backup root tosave my apps and it always worked. Now I have the app file but it wont open my back up. I tried to back up my apps in the stockromandit says I dont have root. Ive tried every app I could find in the market. There are a few I have that arent in the market anymore. Any ideas on how to save them?
titanium backup?
Did you back up with clockwork mod?

How did you backup your ROM? If you used recovery then you're up a creek without a paddle.
Titanium backup and start over. Best advice

I did back up in recovery. I ended up using my backup. Titanium wouldn't work. Then reopened the file with my back up root. Thanks for all the help guys. Just a newb learning the ropes.

The only app I back up is angry birds n that's just data backup. What apps do u really need to back up vs just reinstalling? I don't really see the point in backing up anything other than a game save

Your stock rom probably isn't rooted.
Restore the nandroid backup, then flash Superuser through recovery. You can find the file here: http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
You may need to install Busybox for Titanium Backup to work, but I think the developer removed the need for it. You can use a Busybox Installer from the market to install it if you need it.
Don't restore system apps or data when you restore on CM7.

Newbie question here.
What are you guys using to back up your phone when you flash a new rom?
Is there an easy way to reload all the old apps when you flash a new rom? or do you have to reload everything manually.
I just put the starburst rom on my phone and really liking it. I assume I will want a flash a later version at some point and am wondering if there is an easier way to the apps back and such after flashing.
thanks
TitaniumBackup. When backing up, I would just backup the apps, and not the system data. I have StarBurst too, and it works great.
FYI if you have the free version, when you restore apps you have to manually hit install, done, install, done. If you buy Pro, then I believe you won't need to.

Exactly what Apoc said. But just buy it. Its WAY worth it
Be careful using Titanium backup to restore apps. It can cause big time problems when restoring backed up apps from different ROM bases.
AppBrain is a good app that will keep track of all the apps you have installed and you can use it as a reference to reinstall them from the Market. This is what I do, then I use Titanium Backup to restore the data to those apps.
Hey all, long time no talk.
I noticed everytime a new ROM comes out you guys are always flashing. Is there an easy way to flash without having to "re-install" everything and keeping your screens the way they were previously? Or there is no simple solution?
Mike
Generally not really. If its a minor update for a current Rom u don't always have to erase everything but generally u will have to start from scratch. That's always the best bet for squashing bugs ect

You can always use titanium backup to reinstall apps, I'd definitely recommend dropping a few bucks on the paid version for no click restores. If it's an update to a rom I'm already running, I usually just wipe cache and dalvik before flashing, but you should always wipe before flashing a different rom.

Excellent that is what I had figured. I just had noticed some guys flashing everytime a new rom comes out, that has to be a pain in the a**. But I have been using Astro to back up everything.
Thanks guys

Titanium is a great ap. I have noticed that restoring aps with it can cause some issues and slowdowns. I always used titanium but now I prefer a fresh install. When u log into your gmail account u can set it to automatically restore your previous aps also when you look at the "my aps" section you can slide to the right and look at all aps you had ever downloaded.
Good luck, have fun and follow the roms specific instructions!

I'm with you. I used TiBu a couple of times, but had random crashes and stuff.
I do the full wipe now, every time. Stability is worth the trade-off of reinstalling everything
Titanium can be buggy at times but I use the heck out if it... I make a backup of xyz rom and rename it, then switch roms. Set everything up (if it's new to me) and backup/rename. For example I have titanium backupUKB, titanium backupCM9 and titanium backupSRZ all on my SD card...

I have been using GO Backup instead of Titanium lately and it is pretty good. You can restore all your backed up apps with one click; it only backs up user apps. It also can backup your messages and wifi access points if you backup that kind of stuff, and most of all it's free. I definitely recomend you try it out.

I only restore the user apps using Titanium Backup. I believe that should technically not cause any problems. Well I am glad it didn't the few times I did use it, so far.
I know this is sort of a noob question, but I just got the Nexus and I want to be sure before I lose all my stuff again.
1. When i signed into my account on the nexus, it started restoring all my apps from my Incredible.
2. I got my Verizon Nexus tonight, set up everything how I liked it... then I decided to root.
What should I have done before I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it to save all of my apps and settings?
After rooting I returned to the phone and found that everything had been wiped, and nothing restored... Why?
If i wait until the Jellybean OTA update, and apply it, will I lose everything again?
This is frustrating as hell, and I want to know how to keep everthing between flashes.
I know you can nandroid.. but thats of no use to me cause I want to keep the new rom...
Do i really have to use Titanium backup?
Titanium backup is a secure and simple way to backup, imo.
I dont wanna buy the pro version.... any other ways?
I use mybackup pro it works perfectly.
