Hi,
I just rooted my phone through the CF root method. I had titanium backup on my previous S4. Do I need to reformat my ext sd card or delete the titanium backup on it because I moved to a new type of phone? I have a Tmobile note 3 now, my S4 was ATT.
Thank you for your time.

No, you shouldn't have to. You probably could actually use the titanium back up, but it's up to you...

Hi,
I did not do any restores from it. But I would like to add back the data on one game.
You can restore data from users apps you backed upped on your S4. Nothing bad happens. Now restoring data on system apps can cause problems.

You'll be perfectly fine if that's the case. I have one specific game I always have to do that with as well. Just do a full restore of the app.... 'app+ data'

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.

Planning to do a factory reset and was wondering which program is best to sync my apps and its layout? I just dont want to redo my phones layout again.
Titanium backup or rom toolbox pro. Both work good.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
Both of those required rooting my phone?
Sorry, if your not rooted then maybe try carbon backup. It has a way to backup apps plus data without root. Otherwise to backup the apps data too I'm pretty sure you need to be rooted.

Before I rooted I used my backup pro (but the free one works too) and I would back up apps and data and then install the app again after flash and everything would go back the way it was.

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.

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.

does rom toolbox pro do the same job as tibu?

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.

Yup - MyBackUp Pro OR Titanium Backup for data - Or a CWM backup of everything.
Yes it is. Referred to as a Nandroid. Reboot into your custom recovery CWM or TWRP, select back up, the destination of the back up to internal or external and run it. Hope that helps.

What he said about nandroids. And I like to use Titanium Backup PRO to backup my apps and data. Also, there are many SMS backup apps that don't need root.
