PA & Titanium Backup - Paranoid Android Q&A

I'm not sure if this is an issue with PA or TB but I cannot uninstall system apps or convert apps to system apps using Titanium Backup on Paranoid Android v4.45, but I am able to do so using apps such as "/system/app mover"
Is there any workarounds for this?

It's a problem with titanium backup. It doesn't work with superuser correctly

Titanium Backup-Restore deleted apps?

I ran a titanium backup, then I deleted a bunch of stock apps, then I ran another titanium backup in preparation to flash my first custom rom.
My question is, after I flash the custom rom and use Titanium Backup to restore my apps and settings, is it going to restore all of those apps I deleted? I opened the Titanium folder on my SD card and all of those apps appear to be listed there.

If you didnt remove them apps from the back up then yes it will restore them. There shoudl be an option if you scroll down i batch where you can see delete back ups for noninstalled apps. I would do this and it should remove the back ups of any app you previously removed but had backed up.
Careful, Titanium doesn't actually take backups of system apps, just their data. If you delete system apps you may not be able to restore them with Titanium.
Does anyone have those stock apps, so i can reinstall through titanium? And how exactly is it done... Thanks.....

ditto! Need a zip file if possible with stock apps (mainly stock.apk and widget, news.apk, newsreader, rss.apk, friendstream and widget)
as far as how it's done it depends on your phone.
run
cmd
adb push filename.apk /system/app
In TB, it shows the system apps I had deleted, and they have a line through the file name. Below each one, it says that there isnt any backup of those apps. If I open them, it only gives me the option to un-install them. Should I keep them there in case I need them when I find a way to re-install them?
Certain system apps will not reinstall even if you have a backup of them. If you uninstall Facebook for HTC Sense, for example, there is no way of reinstalling it and getting it to work again. Be careful what you uninstall.
If you pay for the TB Pro Key, you can backup system apps (the actual apk) and restore them to /system/app - I've done so anyway. You shouldn't restore them (or their data) on other roms. You can also freeze the app to test if anything will break by removing it. Freezing doesn't remove the app, just keeps it from running or showing in your app drawer. I know it's a bit pricey, but I think it was more than worth the price. Plus you get background app restores, meaning that you don't have to agree to permissions and select install for each app.
You don't have to restore everything that you backup. When you choose to batch restore (select "restore missing apps with data"), you can uncheck which apps you don't want reinstalled. I usually only restore the apps I absolutely need after a clean install, then if I need an app later I'll restore it. This helps to weed out apps you don't use. You can of course do this with the free version.
If you've removed apps and need them again, you can download the rom and extract the apps you need then push them to /system/app. Or you can just flash the rom over itself without wiping data, just wipe caches. If you're running stock you can do this with the stock rooted rom.

Help transferring apps to new ROM!

How can I transfer all my original apps to any new ROM that I flash? I do have titanium backup, but when I flash a new ROM it does not show up in my apps screen but it does show that it is installed on my SD Card.
Download Titanium Backup in the market. Then open Titanium and restore the apps you want, assuming you did a backup of them with Titanium prior to flashing. If you're going from a Sense ROM to AOSP, or vise versa, only restore the app and not the data (you might experience problems if you restore the data too in that scenario).
Thank you very much will definitely give that a try
I had to do a reboot after restoring all of my apps for them to show up.

Hi guys
I understand that,to uninstall bloatware apps u install titanium backup and uninstall,via that.
But what about apps that u want to add, so that when you reset the phone it will be,automatically be there as standard
You can also use titanium backup to "convert to system app" which should do what you're asking about. You can also move the app to the system apps directory using system restore (search about incorporating system app updates into the rom to save space).
But honestly, why would you want to ADD MORE apps as an immovable system app unless you're building a ROM? Don't bother with the hassle, just leave it as a user app and make a titanium backup of it.

[Q] Titanium Backup Help?

I synced my Titanium Backup to Google Drive because I knew I was going to fully wipe my SD. Now I'm trying to restore my apps/data, and I'm having a bit of trouble. It shows about half of the apps that I have backups of (to be more specific, apps that on my previous ROM I had uninstalled). When I look into the folder, I see all the backup of apps that I need (com.xxxx.xxxx). Anyone have any idea what's going on/solutions?
