Apps 2 sd, restoring data - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I flash a different Rom, using gobackup, should there be any problem restoring my backed up apps and data?
Seems like a while back I went from cleanrom to carbon and encountered some problem...but then when I went back to cleanrom I didn't have the issue.
Are some backup apps better than others? Helium, titanium?

Which issues did you encounter? You can try Titanium Backup, i think this is the best.

Whenever I flashed a different rom, then tried to restore apps + data, gobackup didn't find the saved backup though I could see it on my extSD.

Titanium Backup
Is it just me or is anyone else noticing that Titanium Backup is having problems with Jellybean.
Yesterday I flashed my Nexus with Jellybean. No when i go to remove an application with Titanium Backup, the app just freezes after i choose to uninstall.
Anyone else having this issue?

Which program do you use to sync your apps?

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.

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.

Backup and restore issue

I been having issues trying to backup and/or restoring my rom. Ive tried internal and external but as soon as I swipe to restore or backup, it immediately takes me back to the twrp home menu. Am I doing something wrong or should I reflash twrp?
The last time I tries to restore jedi x11 it just kept saying failed no matter if I put it in int or ext. Ibjust had to flash the rim all over again along with all my apps. Please help. Thank you in advance.

Are you running on the latest twrp? if not, then update it. Also I find using google to restore works best.

Backing up a non-rooted device

I have the Epic 4G Touch. I'd like to proceed with rooting it and ultimately CM10. I'd like to back up all the random stuff that I've accumulated over the last few years of owning this phone before I do that. Titanium Backup is only for rooted devices, as I understand it. What is the preferred method for backing up a device before rooting?

You can root it without losing any data.

Ypu can also just use odin to flash the el26 kernel. Then go into recovery and make a nandroid. After that flash whatever rom after wiping. Then on your new rom use titanium backup pro to restore from nandroid. Choose your apps and the data and restore. Do not restore anything system.

If you haven't moved forward with yet you can also use Helium for your backup -- it is available in the Play Store for free and is one of the only suites that will let you backup apps and data without root. I think that it will require access to a PC for the non-root backup. Good luck!
