Is there another way to backup apps and their data? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Okay I'm really in need of a response from who knows the mechanic of backing up
I've two questions
1. I've noticed that u can actually flash apps with a zip file. So if I put my personal apps into the rom folder after extracting them and recompress, is it possible that my apps will also get flashed along w the rom?
2. I've also noticed when u do a factory reset in the recovery, it only deletes cache and data. If I copy the data folder to my sdcard and paste to the orig directory after factory reset, is it possible that the data will get restored?
I'm not just curious. I think if this is possible, it'll be much dependable
Thnx

1. Yes, put the app's APK under /data/app in your zip package (although I do think that you need to modify the updater-script a bit to make it actually flash the apps).
2. Depending on how you do it - you MUST keep ALL the files' and folders' permissions untouched (which is nearly impossible since there are just WAY too many of them), or when you simply copy back, the permissions will be messed up and you'll face continuous FCs. Better use apps like Titanium Backup or, if you're brave enough, try restoring only the /data partition from an existing nandroid backup.

Titanium Backup is the best way. The way you are doing it sounds like a lot of unnecessary work.

look for an app called zipme from author jrummy on the play store

I wrote some code a long while back that allows you to pack/encrypt and unpack/unencrypt your own android backups so that you can do your own partial backups and restores.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730309
However, for the past 18 months, I have just used BackupPC to back up my android devices. BackupPC is a linux-based backup that allowd for automated backups with all types of options for incrementals & fulls. The backup files are pooled so that you can backup every day while requiring minimal extra space since only new files add to the poo size. It can use several different transport systems for the backup ranging from rsync to rsyncd to tar to ftp etc.
I use rsync (over ssh) since it is fast -- only the deltas need to be transported across the network when files change.
Basically, all you need to do is install ssh + rsync, modify the server side config file and then you get automatic backups at your own pre-determined frequency over wifi whenever your device is connected to the wifi network.
Now BackupPC is probably overkill for just backing up a droid -- since it is typically used to backup whole networks of linux, Mac, Windows, etc. pc's. But since I already use it to backup all my home computers, it was a cinch to modify the config file to also backup my droid devices.
I verified that it worked when my Gnexus broke and I was able to flash the replacement device which restored not just my apps and data but also all my settings.

I agree. The play store has a bunch of other ones too but I would go with Titanium.

about titanium backup

so i want to change again my rom again but now i have a lot of things on my phone that important to me
so i would like to use titanium backup but im not quit sure how to use properly
so can somebody explain to me how do i backup everything
and when i mean everything i mean like saves from games and sms and music and pictures and more
so please i need your help
thanks
Using Titanium Backup:
1. Menu -> Batch -> Select RUN Backup all user apps + System data
2. The backup will be in the folder on ur SD card. Copy and save it in case u earse the entire SD card
Using Recovery:
To backup enitre ROM which ever you are currently using. Reboot into recovery..
Currently I use Clockword Mod, so I know how to do it only by this one
1. Reboot into recovery mode.
2.Under Backup & Restore do the nandroid Backup which backsup the currently using ROM with data.
3. This will also be under the folder ClockwordMod in ur SD card backit up in case u do SD card formatting
For SMS, Call Logs & Pictures I use McAfee Wavesecure which I bought long back and backsup all the data.. not sure about Titanium backup for SMS & stuff...
I think this might help you.
Excuse a newbie question, but doesn't the nandroid recovery just take a snapshot of the current setup with ROM and all?
How do you use it with a new ROM?

You use the nandroid if the new rom doesnt work or you of some other reason want to go back to the old rom.

Don't backup System Data if you are changing from one ROM to another, you will invariably get problems backing up system files that won't work smoothly with the new ROM. Just backup user apps.

No, that's fine. You can back both up and just restore apps and app data with no problem. I've never backed up system data I really don't see the point, I guess you could backup and restore to the same ROM, but i'd rather just start afresh each time.

Being able to backup system data selectively isn't a bad idea, i.e. Wi-Fi access points and literally one or two other things, if someone is after a system backup this is where nandroid comes into play, in my opinion.
I do agree backup for user apps. Also I would prefer Nandroid to restore the old ROM fully. Since I have been using some CM7 RC builds & also nightly builds.. i started to restore system data as well, which literally helps me to have all settings as well.
Also he can run Restore apps with data alone...
But it is upto OP which method he prefers..

Open the app and select Backup/Restore and long press on the system data you want to backup. You should exercise caution and not backup system data that will potentially disrupt another ROM. Wi-Fi Access Points, User Dictionary etc can all be found in there. Hope this helps.

I have a question regarding Titanium that I hope you can help with...
I've just upgraded to the Gingerbread RUU, so I lost root and can't get it back, or frankly want to have it back, but I've backed up a number of apps with Titanium Backup, and is there any way to reinstall them?
They're all saved to my SD card, and Titanium Backup obviously refuses to work.
I can't and don't want to get root back, so is there any way to manually use these backups, or use them with another program?

You can recover the apps by searching the TitanuimBackup folder and extracting the APKs from the Zip files. It's obviously not possible to recover the data as it's zipped up in a tarball and it requires Superuser rights to access if using Titanium, however I don't know that it's not possible to manually replace the data. If you unzip the tarball and extract the folder to your desktop. If it's the BBC News app for example the folder should look like this after you extract it.
'Data/Data/bbc.mobile.news.uk/cache
-----------------------------------/databases
-----------------------------------/files
-----------------------------------/shared_prefs'
I don't know if you can access Data/Data from the phones internal memory without root, I am using Root Explorer. Try with Astro, I am guessing you can read/write to Data/Data without having S-Off as I am not getting prompted to switch to R/W to delete files (I have Root and S-Off).
If you can read and write to Data/Data without root and S-Off you can manually copy and paste the data over after installing the app, it will take ages to do if you've got any number of apps and I am not ever sure it will work, but I suppose it's worth a go.
I hope this makes sense, it makes semi sense to me as I read it back!

ROM Change - Best way to keep the apps and files

Hi all,
I'm thinking about the change the ROM. What is the best way to keep all my apps and files? Can I just backup with Titanium Backup and restore it? I'm not sure if the SD card will be restored too through a factory reset.
I use MyBackup Pro - Paid app but does all the work for you in theory. Backs up everything. Quite cheap for a backup app.
And what's with the SD card? If I'm not completely wrong, I think the SD card is going to be deleted...

Not unless you want it all to be deleted. When I flash a new ROM and wipe data, it doesn't delete the files on it, all my wallpapers are still in there and APK's I want to install.
I use titanium backup, a complete backup tool for root users which works really well
I use titanium, it works great even the free one

Titanium Backup all the way mate.
There is a special partition layout that prevents the SD card (/dev/media) from being wiped. The only exception is if you flash a stock Google ROM - that will wipe the SD card.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
my backup root is the way to go saves all apks and data as well as photos, txts, call log, and most settings only have to redo a couple things whenever i flash
also think about using a custom launcher to preserve your homescreen setups, most people are loving NOVA launcher available here in the forums and it allows you to backup all your home screens so that after you push your new rom you wont have to re-set up your shortcuts.
I use both Clockwork and TiBu. I have never flashed a ROM that alsoformats my card, but I suppose its possible.
However, I have not always had good luck with TiBu restoring all icons and widgets. Apps and data always come across fine, except in cases of dramatically different ROM versions, like jumping from Gingerbread to ICS where data like contacts can fail to transfer. No big deal because I just re-sync with Outlook.

[Q] Titanium Backup: restoring after wiping

I have the premium version of Titanium Backup which I have been using for over a year with much success.
I have one query which would make it really awesome if it can be accomplished.
I normally only use it when doing a ROM upgrade. When I am getting ready to upgrade, I delete all my old backups, do a new set of backups on all user apps + system data, and wipe and flash the ROM. Then, when I'm back inside, I go into the Market and download Titanium plus the Pro unlock, and restore the backup.
(First of all, is this what you guys do? restoring all system data shouldn't screw up the features of the new ROM from the old one, right?)
The question is: Is there any way to have Titanium run without having to first go into the Market, find the app plus the unlock, download it, and install it? i.e. If I could just run it straight off the SD card, or install it straight off the SD card without having to use the Market.
Ideally, it would be even better if I could have a startup script on first run where it just restores the full set of apps + system data after I've flashed the ROM.
Is this at all possible?
download or extract from a rom the titanium.apk, put it on sd-card an install the apk after flashing new rom and it´s done.

Never restore system data as it can and has causes issues. It is only advised to restore user apps and data never system data.
As for your other question no not that I know of. Most roms worth anything already include TIBU so all you have to do is install the pro key and run it.
Start Titanium backup
Goto menu/more/create update>zip
scroll down and hit "create update.zip"
when you install a new Rom just use "add another zip" when in Rom manager or 4EXT recovery
Goto SD card and select "update.zip" from root of SD card
Hope that helps

Thanks, that's great!
Do you know if it is smart enough to bundle the Pro unlock into the update.zip? I opened the zip file up and there only appears to be 1 APK in there.
Would it be difficult (or even possible?) to manually adjust the update.zip so that it includes the Pro unlock APK?

So I'm returning my nexus for a replacement today. Some kind of battery issue that makes it keep turning off every night:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34923533#post34923533
On restoring, if I understand right, I'm going to move my titanium folder back to the new nexus to the SD card area.
Run my TiBU apk and just restore my apps and associated files.
If I understand right, I Should Not restore my system files right? (Although i did a lot of customizing i was hoping could come right over).
Then when i have it all customized again, I'll back up the new system and hopefully it won't have any issues anymore.
Just an android noob talking it through, sound good?
I'll be installing the rom and CM10 again of course before doing this.

Issue with TiBu Update.zip

So I made an update.zip before I went from my 4.1 ROM to a 4.2 ROM. However whenever I try to flash my update.zip file it makes my phone not boot. Unfortunately I was stupid and didnt make any other backups. Is there a way to restore individual apps/data from the update.zip file?
Could have something to do with how titanium created the file.
Does the .zip only contain the tibackup app? Or others as well?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It contains a large list of apps. When I created the zip I went through the long list of stuff and only backed up what I wanted (none of the red system stuff).
All in all its not a huge deal. Was mostly wanting my SMS/Call Logs/Wi-Fi
All the other stuff would be nice but can be redone
File and directory structure has changed in 4.2.

Yep I dont think thats the cause though as it also happens if I try going back to my 4.1 ROM (JBSourcery).
I went through my update.zip file and removed a bunch more stuff that I likely didnt need and it worked!!! Obviously I backed something up into the zip that was causing the issue. There was also some system apks/files in there that I am positive I didnt choose for the update.zip... not sure if it auto-adds some or if I just spaced out but so far so good!
EDIT: Well it kind of worked... I got some of the apps but some didnt show at all and it didnt restore my SMS messages
Just to update if anyone else runs into this...
As I said above I got it to work by manually editing the .zip file to remove some stuff that I didnt need but it didnt restore my SMS/Call logs or anything like that (Wi-Fi APs as well).
I then went into the .zip and removed all the SMS/Call Log/Wi-Fi lists and then put them in the TitaniumBackup folder on my phone (overwriting my old ones) so it will allow me to restore. I also tried removing all files from my .zip file except the SMS/Call Log/Wi-Fi stuff and will see if reflashing helps
It would be a really great addition to TiBu to have the ability to restore from your .zip file from within TiBu. I dont think it would be super hard to implement but I'm not a dev so thats just speculation.
I will update again later if my workaround does the trick.
Not sure if you've ever heard of it, but grab the app named "App2zip". It will do just that. You select apps that you want installed back on your ROM after flashing a new one. When finished hit the OK button and it will make a flashable zip of all the selected apps. It also keeps all user & system apps on separate pages so you don't accidentally backup a system app that might cause issues. Another good thing is that it works for 4.2! I used it to restore over 150 apps on Mmuzzy's first build after 4.2 dropped and everything restored properly. Just know it zips only the apps, no data. If you want your app data backed up use TiBu and restore data after you flash your ROM & apps zip.
i was able to restore my apps using the update.zip from tibu, it then restored data after i booted the OS. I had to mount /system before i flashed the update.zip because if i didn't mount it first, it wouldn't restore my apps at all. The only problem is my phone lagged like an SOB after restoring the data. I just use tibu to restore apps and data after i boot the phone, keeps the problems off my phone.

Yep I have used App2Zip. TiBu has basically replicated that functionality.
So as is normally the case the problem here was my own stupidity.
I thought that by choosing the option to make an update.zip and then choosing all the programs I wanted it would make a current version backup of the apps I selected. However I think how it works is that it only makes the .zip file out of an existing backup. So I should have run a full TiBu backup before making my .zip. I verified this by going through the xml file with my text messages and verifying that it was old stuff.
So in the end it was my fault for not understanding how the program worked. I still think the ability to restore directly from the update.zip from within TiBu would be a welcome addition though.

About backup
What is a backup?
In information technology, a backup or the process of backing up is making copies of data which may be used to restore the original after a data loss event. In Android, this affects applications, settings and documents.
Which types of backups do we have for Android?
Basically, we can distinguish three types:
Nandroid
A Nandroid backup (as it's done by e.g. ClockworkMod) basically creates full images of all your device's partitions, without any abstraction. This does not necessarily mean one could not pick single items out of a Nandroid backup, but its not that trivial. If you restore a single partition only (such as /data), it must fit the other parts of the system. The /data partition also holds the /data/dalvik-cache, for example, which consists of the byte-code for all installed apps, optimized for the ROM which created it. If you would restore only the /data partition from a backup of ROM-X to a device with ROM-Y, those DEX (Dalvik EXecutables) would not fit. Also ROM-Y might use different directory structures for several things, which are not reflected here. As a result, you might have a unstable system (which might not even be able to complete its boot process), see apps crashing, and the like.
Doing this would not be such a good idea. So for the average user, a Nandroid restore is rather an all-or-nothing: Either restore it completely, or not at all. Unless you know exactly what you're doing, of course.
ADB Backups
Backups created with the adb backup command are a different case: they are "abstracted". If you look into such an archive, you will not find the directory structure reflected. Thus, at least in theory, an app backup (including the apps' data) created on ROM-X should restore fine on ROM-Y, as the ADB daemon on the device should take care of what belongs where.
App-based backups
There are several apps available for Android that create backups of apps, their data, or both. Some only cover system data available via so-called "data providers" (contacts, call logs, bookmarks, SMS/MMS, and the like). Others can capture/extract the .apk app installation archives. A few can backup apps, their data, and even system data—which before Android 4.0 required root permissions. Two of the powerful apps shall be mentioned here:
Titanium Backup is one of the best-known, most-powerful, and most recommended Backup solutions. It is able to backup apps, their data, data available via data-providers, system data, and more. And it can read (and restore) things from Nandroid and ADB backups as well. But it requires your device to be rooted.
Helium - App Sync and Backup (previously called Carbon) creates backups compatible with ADB backups (in fact, it is a front-end to the adb backup and adb restore commands). It can backup apps and their data, plus some other system data and stuff available via some data-providers. More to come, we hope. Helium Backup does not require root.
