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.
Hi all,
I am using ViperOne ROM S-OFF and Titanium Backup
And have have noticed that when I run a batch query to "backup new user apps and newer versions" or ""backup all user apps", Titanium is prompting me to backup all the google related apps such as;
- Gmail
- Google Play Store
- Google Search
- Google+
- YouTube
Etc...
Aren't these system apps ?
And if yes, why are they being categorized as user apps ?
Any help would be much appreciated as always
Thanks in advance and have a great weekend
In viper rom that Google apps is put in /data/app folder so the titanium prompted u to backup it..

hi, i use titanium backup pro to make the Android system webview user app (don't ask why) and then titanium backup get into endless process and when i restart the phone Android system webview was uninstalled, i installed it again from Google store but some of my apps like keep, Gmail etc stop working.
help please
Have you tried to change the Web-View-Implementation in the developer options to Chrome Stable? Are you Stock? Then you can reflash the system from a factory image via fastboot. But ONLY SYSTEM! I use Lineage without System-Web-View. It uses the Chrome-Web-View.
ive changed to chrome and problem solved. thx.
Hi,
I have recently replaced my LG G3 stock rom with Lineage 14.1 official rom. I have also rooted my device using the 'su-addon' suggested by Lineage team.
Unfortunately, since I moved to Lineage some of Titanium Backup's features have stopped working properly. For instance, I tried to uninstall some system apps, and after reboot they were still there. I also tried to convert system apps into user apps, but Titanium Backup couldn't accomplish the proccess (I had a message telling me "Please wait" for more than 15 minutes).
However, Titanium Backup does succeed in taking backups (for both system and user apps). Another interesting fact is that I managed to uninstall system apps / convert them to user apps manually, by using a File Browser with root access. Therefore I really don't get why titanium backup stopped working....
My guess was t. backup doesn't work properly with Lineage root addon, and thus I replaced it with SuperSu (latest version). Still, titanium backup doesn't work... It looks like it fails in each action requires to change files in the system partition (maybe it doesn't have write permission?)
Any suggestions?
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.
