I have like 400 apps in my Titanium Backup.. But I only need some 150 apps and rest I install or uninstall as per requirement.. Now the real issue is that when I Flash a new ROM, I have to check all those 150 apps first out of 400, which is a very tedious job and then I restore... I am looking for some solution which would see exactly which apps were installed in previous ROM and install only those "INSTALLED APPS AND NOT ALL 400 BACKED UP FILES" without requiring me to individually select every app..
I used MIUI inbuilt backup app which can backup and restore only currently installed apps, but I can't restore that to a NON-MIUI Rom from where my trouble arises, meaning I have to select individually those 150 apps out of 400 and then restore ;( Any help?
It always gets stuck when trying to restore my apps. I have to go into the market, install the apps and then restore the data. Otherwise it just keeps saying trying to restore for hours on a single app. Tried in both batch and by selecting single apps. Never had a problem before this phone.
Second issue. I have a game, Bard's Tale that is around 4GB's large. I like to keep several backups but I don't want that app backup every time because it's size. I actually don't wish to backup the app at all, just the data. Is this possible because it is really taking away my space. 4GB's to play the game and 4GB's for every backup. I have other games that around 1 to 2 GB's in length with the same problem.

1.Go to Setting / Apps / All / select Titanium Backup / Clear Data / Unistall / Reboot / Redownload it
Then,try again restore app with it
2.For The Bard's Tale, u just backing up the game with Titanium Backup, after that u just go to Sdcard and find Titanium Backup Folder, if u backup an app Titanium Backup will backup with 3 file ,
1st.App

I tried to clear data and uninstall and rebooting. But I'm still getting stuck in a neverending loop with some of the same apps during restore. My first time installing my apps on my GN2 I didn't even try to restore them via TB. Instead I used the market and just added the data to the ones I needed the data for so everything would work. However, now I'm noticing that the restore isn't working.
As for the second part dealing app and app data. I think it is stupid they don't give us any control over what gets backup. This makes me wish to have a second script that goes back behind TB and delete all the apps that I don't wish to keep in the backup.
Hey guys, I have a small issue restoring apps from Titanium backups, everything restored fine except few apps won't restore( saying, "restore elements failed")? Any suggestions?
It happens sometimes for me also, try restoring manually ,,, question the ones that failed aren't system are they?

Nope, just regular apps, like Google Chrome!
R: Titanium Backup, restoring elements failed?
Try to restore one by one.
Bach(multiple) restore doesn't work for system apps in my phone.

I have had this frustrating and once perplexing issue several times. I now know what the issue is and how to fix it.
("Market Link" is the term TB uses for The Play Store)
The Issue is that the "Market Link" that Titanium Backup uses to "restore" the app (non system downloaded from The Market) is "broken" The "Market Link" TB saved doesn't match your phone's Android I.D.#..
Allot of times after flashing (or OTA) a Rom your Android I.D.# will change. TB will even ask you if you want to use the new one or keep the old one..
TB does not make a "nanadroid type" of backup for an App to be backed up. What it does is copy the Apps "Market Link" so that when you "restore" the App TB DOWNLOADS the App and INSTALLS the App with a "FRESH" download of it..
THE FIX;
1) Uninstall TB and its Pro Key if you have one. Settings> Application Manager> Clear Data in both the TB app and Key> Uninstall.
2) Delete the Titanium Backup folder that is on your phone's Internal (root) sdcard. (You don't want to simply just download and install TB again because it will use this same "corrupt" backup folder)
I rebooted after this.
3) Clear Data and Cache in the Play Store Application and Google Play Services. Settings> Application Manager> All> Google Play Store and Google Play Services.
Now back completely out of the settings menu and open the Play Store Application. Accept Terms. Download Titanium Backup and Pro Key if you have one. Open Titanium Backup and make a backup of all your User and System apps.
You now have a complete backup with the correct Market Links associated with your current Android I.D. Titanium Backup will now work as intended! ..

Thanks for this post and sorry for the dead thread revival but I have a question.
I'm experiencing this exact scenario, except... now I have cleared all the data and caches etc, I want to restore the backed up app data that I took before switching OS! If I clear Play Store & Play Services data and cache, reinstall TiBu and take a complete backup... Then I'll just have a couple of apps, and no data! Do you mean to copy the previous backup files onto the phone afterwards and then try to restore again?
I am having the exact same problem right now . I need to restore the old backup . can you please help
I have very strange issue here. I am using Whatsapp since 2013. I am using it on same number although that number is not with me anymore and I cannot have it also. So I am using it just the way it is. I changed my phone from Sony Xperia C to LG Optimus L90 to OnePlus 2 to Redmi Note 5 Pro to Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 to Redmi Note 7 Pro. Every time whatsapp restore worked well. I do format and clean install new version of custom ROM. Everytime, I backed up whatsapp and restored it after install and it worked.
Only this time when I decided to move from Redmi Note 7 pro to Redmi Note 8 pro, it failed unexpectedly.
Not only app, it failed to restore even data.
Now this Redmi Note 8 pro has Android 11 and all my previous phones were having till Android 10. Is this the issue?
Where should I check the logs? and How to correct this?

I flashed ResurrectionRemix based on Android 10 on Redmi Note 8 Pro and Whatsapp restore worked well.
Now since Redmi Note 8 pro crashed and I moved back to Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 and was working fine. I am using ResurrectionRemix based on Android 10 on Asus.
Yesterday when I tried to flash Spark ROM based on Android 11 on Asus, Whatsapp restored again failed. Same issue which I faced while switching to Redmi Note 8 pro.
I think Android 10 backup cant be restored to Android 11.
I havent tried to restore other backup (taken on Android 10) to Android 11 so cant confirm that.
I have raised this on Titanium Backup official Site and logged a complaint but no acknowledgement even after 3 months.
Today morning I backed up my current rom then installed some roms for testing. Then restored the backup but to my surprise only some of the applications installed rest of the applications were not installed. When I go to playsotre to install those apps which are not installed i get error as " insufficient storage " but i have 10 gb of free space . And also I cant restore the apps theu easebackup.
Is it because of the corrupted backup ? Please help me.
When I came across this, i cleared the dalvik and cache to fix it.
Hi guys, I would like to save my Apps and associated data using the Titanium BU.
I unlocked the Bootloader, installed TWRP 3.3.1-0924 (unoff.) and Magisk 19.2.
Device is: RN8P, MIUI Global 11.0.3 Stable, 11.0..3.0 (PGGEUXM)
Problem: I can install the Titanium App v8.04 or the v7 version. When the TitaniumBU trying to start, and there is some long error message (approx. 2 pages) that all list only Java errors.
Unfortunately, I have not tried the Titanium before (without TWRP and Magisk Root).
Now, I can not say whether it worked before this modification.
Question: Is there any Java settings in the MIUI settings. I didn't find anything in Settings / Developer mode. Maybe someone can help me. I just want to back up my data and the apps with Titanium. On my old Samsung it made a perfect job.
Thanks
regards wa2ld
I downloaded Titanium Backup from play store seemed to work perfectly fine for me.
I had trouble getting titanium backup to install from my backed up apk's but as JuanM2020 said, from the play store works fine. Only issue I have is I've noticed some apps fail to restore with titanium backup on my rn8pro, just hangs, doesn't matter which settings I change. Maybe 10% of my apps have to be manually installed from the play store and then I can restore "data only".
I did not have any issue installing Titanium backup I grabbed from apkmirror, latest version available.
Gave it root and done.
Tbh I had been looking in that solution to backup my apps due to TWRP issues with work profiles (second space) which I am using, and so far none of the apps I tried to backup and restore worked. It backed up the Apk yes (but I dont care about that I have backup of those already) but not once I could make a backup of the app data (well yes I made the backup) more precisely could not restore those apps userdatas. Simple thing I wanted to have my login passwords saved so it could be restore without having to retype them.
Whatsapp, telegram, protonmail and some others, restoration of userdata failed all times.
Still have not found any solution to backup and restore apps and their associated datas from both profiles. Fails on both.
It is likely working for some apps, but certainly not for the app I need it to work. Too bad for me.
Speaking of which is there a way to only backup OS settings alone (without all the apps) for like walpapers, colors, default apps, per app settings like notifications and such?
Thanks.
