After I flashed CM7 (after a full wipe) Titanium won't restore any apps or data. I made sure unknown sources was checked and made sure I had root and superuser running. I went to the online troubleshooting guide and followed the instructions to change the settings within the app also. Updated busybox and used fix permissions in Rom Manager and no luck. It worked fine on the nightly builds and worked great on Mikshift 1.0 and 1.1. I need to be able to restore my Battle.net authenticator on my phone for Warcraft but I need to be able to restore the data also or it won't work. Any ideas or insight on how to fix this issue or do a manual restore of the app and data would be great. I have the stock Rom and Mikshifts Roms backed up but I'd like to run CM7. Titanium works fine on the other roms and restores the apps and data like normal.

Are you running the Pro version of Ti Backup? If so, I read that it still has issues with CM7. Specifically, the batch one-click restore of apps+data isn't working. I read there is a setting somewhere to change it to a manual one-by-one app restore as a temporary workaround.
Titanium Backup>Menu>Prefrences>(Under Troubleshooting)App Processing Mode>Interactive Mode.
Try that and it should work...
I wondered if that was the problem, still not sure but nothings worked so far.

Only restores the app, I need the data so the app is sync'ed to Battle.nets servers like the original install or I can't log onto WOW with this rom running on my phone. A fresh install prompts you to sync all over again and the authenticator is useless if you haven't removed the old authenticator. I could removed the authenticator and reinstall it on the CM rom and then make another backup so I could use it across all the roms I already have saved (I like to jump around) but that's a lot of work.

If you made the backup with each app's data (it should, be default), it should be restored with data by default. I don't know why yours isn't doing that :/

The only only thing it'll do is restore in interactive mode which uses the stock android installer....so it only uses the apk file and doesn't pull any data with it. I've never has issues with titanium before on any device that couldn't easily be fixed. Still stumped lol. It does show a different version of busybox installed than all my other working versions show, and after using the busybox app from the market it still shows the old version. I've tried fresh installs of titanium and the CM7 rom and no luck. Guess I'll hold off and try to contact the developer or wait for updates. Shouldn't be long.

this is only an issue for the battle.net that puts a new serial with a new install. the Classic installer DOES restore data.
Once you have your battle.net restored the first time and it doesnt work, go back to Ti Backup, click restore and then choose Data only.
Should solve your problem. Please don't misinform others that Ti Backup doesn't work. It does, I promise, I use it often. It might appear that is only installing app, but it installs all data too (My angry birds better follow me!)
We had this issue and ran through a bunch of ways, and foudn that the method described above does work.

I asked for help and explained my problem, I stated it didn't work for me. My post wasn't labeled "Titanium Backup Broken for CM7!!!!" I tried your method and IT WILL NOT RESTORE DATA ON MY DEVICE on my CM7 rom period. I even downloaded the rom again I've done fresh installs and full wipes and as stated before it works fine for the older versions and Mikshift roms. Thanks for the flame though....that why I hate to ask for help here.

It just hangs until I kill the app. It will use the classic installer to install the app just fine but it will not do data. I'm gonna try a fresh backup on a different SD card. I know its just something off the wall, now its bugging me so much I have to figure it out lol.

Will you please try it one more time? Cosine83 had the exact same problem and it was fixed following the advice Riggs already gave you.
Go into Titanium preferences and change Apps Processing Mode to Interactive. Then restore battle.net via Titanium. After you've restored it again select it in Titanium and hit Restore. When it asks you if you want app+data or data only choose data only.

Sometimes TB just won't restore anything in CM7 if the backup was made in Sense. But backups made in CM7 work fine in Sense. Kind of weird. Had to manually restore data without TB, jesusice.

I've tried it lol I will try again. Quick question though, what version of busybox is showing in TB for you guys in your CM7 installs? Mine starts out with 1.16.2 and when I download busybox it rolls back to 1.16.0. It will not accept the new 1.18.? versions of busybox. I wondered if that was causing it.

I'm using Busybox 1.16.0.
Are you sure you're using Interactive (Classic Android installer) for all of this. Before you mentioned that there was a circle that was spinning and not stopping.
If you haven't restarted since that, you have to go and kill the Ti Backup process before trying any of this. We'll get your problem solved don't worry.
I got it. I swear the only thing I did was swap an old 2gig sd card into the phone and made a new backup from my Mikshift rom then a fresh install of CM7. I installed an old version (couple weeks old) of Titanium from a backup I made with Astro. And it worked right off the bat. Still had to go over every app and install it and then the data but I can live with that. Sorry if I got fussy earlier, I'm just not used to getting stumped like that lol. Thanks guys for all the help but I think its just my janky phone being a PITA. Its been kinda buggy since I got it.

You don't even need to do that second step.
While set to "Interactive mode", pick restore app + data. Once the plain-jane Android installer is done, CLICK DONE. Next, Titanium Backup will automatically restore that app's data, just like you told it to.
Unless this issue is specific to the "battle.net" app, this process has worked for me every time, with every app I've tried.

It is specific to this particular apk. Otherwise the method you described works fine.

Hey guys, I dunno if is the right section, however,
I read everywhere, everytime, to not restore data app when flashed a new rom with tb. I do it everytime, and not a single problem, till the lasts time: sometimes, some apps FC. Not a big deal, just wipe app data from tb and all restart working. However, this is not the point: when I go from a gb rom to an ics rom, I know that is (this time really) not good to restore app data with tb.
So the question is: could I restore only the app without app data or it could be some problem? If I restore only the app without data, is like automatically apk install or not?
Thanks all 4 reply, and sorry for bad English/American

Restore app only no issue just the minor bugs reported by ics. Do not restore any system apps. If there is any issue like white emails or blank pages just go yi manage app and clear data and cache. If you get blurred fonts lije some also just restart the launcher your using like nova or trebuchet.

My Tb Track Record
I've been using TB for a while now, as I've become somewhat of a flashaholic. That being said, and as was mentioned, never restore any system apps or system app data. The incompatibilities that may occur possibly are from trying to restore an app that hasn't been updated to work with the new operating system, such as going from GB to ICS or JB. I always try to run app updates prior to creating my latest back-up before flashing a new ROM. I've been lucky so far (and probably because I'm usually late to the game and the app has been updated).
I flash to KitKat factory image from CM10.2 (wiped everything including my internal memory), and then I flash to CM11 nightly and use titanium backup to restore only my app data. and here is where the problem comes in, none of my data is restoring from Titanium, although it says data restore completed in titanium, it actually isn't. Every apps force close when I open it after restoring. After that if I restart my phone, those app that i restored will be disappeared from my app drawer, it didn't appear in settings -> app either, if i try to install again it won't install, only way is to manually search for the apk file through file manager and delete it. I cant restore anything from titanium backup! FYI, I only backup the data of the app, not including the apk, but after restoring the app force close and restarting my phone the whole app gone missing from my app drawer. I can't lose all my data. what can I do? please help :crying::crying:
Another question, every time after u guys flash a new rom do u restore the old android ID or use new one in titanium backup?
Latest update of TB has caused some issues for many people. For me, on some roms, it fc's when I click an app to restore. Try googling for an apk of a previous version, and see if the problem persists. Regarding the id, you can keep the new one. Some functions might not work properly though, like location update. You can go into your settings for your Google account on a computer and withdraw access rights for apps and devices, then everything is fine. Hope this helps. Good luck!

I was messing with snappref for xpossed. And there is an option to hide a folder. I think I may have hidden everything. Cause my pic are not showing on my gallery and none of my music is showing up on the player. Can anyone help me out.
I can use es file explore or even root explorer and I can see the files. So they r all still there.

This is very strange sounding . I'm not familiar with that Xposed module and I have no idea how it works. (I'm assuming that you have the retail Note 3 and are on a 4.4.2 base with Safestrap... and the nandroid backup you're referring to was made in Safestrap prior to the current issue you're having). The easiest fix I can think of would be to flash back to stock 4.4.2 with ODIN and do a thorough wipe (cache and factory reset) in stock recovery.... then go through the process of rooting again with Towelroot, reinstalling safestrap, etc... then try to restore your backup to see if that fixes the problem.
After I tried to restore data using titanium the Google chrome app disappeared. I tried it again and titanium freezes when trying to restore data and the apk. I tried downloading from play for and it keeps saying there no storage available. Also it was install as a system apk.
