I noticed there's an option in titanium backup. My question is when I go to flash a new rom how do these get wiped or do they need to be?

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.

I have rooted with paranoid android 2.57 utacka, and when ever I take a backup of my apps in titanium backup..... Nothing will be shown in restore menu..... So my first rooting went tragic..... I need help... So that next time I change my rom, all my backup are restored.

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.

So I always backup (nandroid) to my exsd, then when I try and restore my backup it always fail s? Do I need to backup to internal? Our does it work from external I'm just not doing it right? The only thing I can think of is that I rename it to the room I was using after backup. ..

I personally store nandroid backups on my external and move them to my internal when I know I will need them. I would say it depends on you're SD card, if it's a cheap one I wouldn't trust it with sensitive stuff like restoring a nandroid, also are you using the latest recovery?

Currently on stock Rom, and when I flashed roms, carbon and pacman, I lost all my data even when I recovered apps through Tibu. Is there a way, most probably, that I can go from stock, 4.1.2 to a 4.3.1 Rom and recover old data?

If you backed up app and data with Titanium, it should be there. Even when restoring, you might need to restore the individual data from some apps. I have done this many times. But be aware, sometimes Titanium doesn't like some roms. I am using cm10.2 and don't have any problems with the restore. Make sure you set you backup folder for the external disk. When you flash a new rom, you will need to reinstall Titanium and have it detect the backup folder again under preferences.

Suppose to but data didn't work as well for me. Tibu, IMO, does the data better.

You need to move your data, it's all there but just in the wrong place, Android 4.3.1 puts your data in internal SD in a folder named 0, android 4.1.2 puts the data in internal SD, when you flash from stock to 4.3.1 you need to move/copy the data in your internal SD to that folder 0 and then everything should be fine and you will be able to restore with TiBu.

Why move it? Set Titanium preferred backup folder to external and don't worry about it.

Menu, preference, select back up folder. Make it a folder on external drive. I made on that says Titanium Backup... Easy to remember. Select it and follow instructions. Only thing is you need to have Tibu detect it on whole device each time you flash but it is there.

I always copy it, it may work to move it to external and I guess it doesn't hurt to try it.
