Restoring music playlists?

I flashed my DROID 2 to Fission 2.2.1 and it's amazing, but I have an issue. I have about 2.5 GB of music loaded on it and I had it divided into a few different playlists. Now those lists appear to be gone, but I can still see them on the SD card. Is there a way for me to restore them? I don't see an option to browse for a playlist within the music app on the phone. Thanks for any help on this!
edit: I did use Titanium backup prior to flashing the ROM and was able to get my apps and such back, but not the playlists. I don't know if I made a backup error or if there's another option to still get them back.

[Q] where did my apps go

ok, take it easy on me boys and girls. I am new to droid (2 months) I am a former Blackberry abuser. So I have an EVO 4G, rooted, I moved my apps to sd card before rooting , and now I can not seem to find them on the card. I know they are still there but can not figure hoe to access and reload them. Can any one guide me on this one?

What do you mean you moved them to the SD card? Like you backed them up or you used the default apps to sd in Froyo?
If you just moved them to the SD card as you would in "manage applications", then you'll need to redownload them - only part of the app is stored on the SD card. If you backed them up, you either need to use the same app you used to back up to restore, or locate the apk files with a file manager and install them.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)

I think you backed em up to the SD card? Use a file manager like astro. And don't call the evo "Droid"
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on Android OS. We now have CyanogenMod.

Yep, if you moved the apps to the sd card using "manage applications", you didnt actually move the app, jsut the data. So if you rooted and installed a new rom or something, you have now lost all your apps. This is why you should at least make a nandroid backup, and also backup apps with Titanium Backup.

If you got your apps from the android market or amazon appstore, you'll just need to reinstall them from there. Unless you backed-up your app data with something like Titanium Backup, you lost the data in those apps. But you shouldn't need to pay for any of the apps you already bought, just reinstall them.

[Q] Restore contacts from sd to nand?

I just went from ACA sd to ACA NAND (cLK).
After the first boot, titanium backup perfectly restored all my contacts to NAND.
But after the second boot, there are only two contacts left...
I tried to restore again with titanium backup, but it failed. (only data, as well as data & app)
Is there any way to grab the file with my contacts from my sd android folder and put it into the NAND?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you!!!

You could use the sync option with Gmail or just backup your contacts to the sdcard with the implemented function when you open the menu when you are in your contacts.

To be more specific, i'm away from home for the next 2 weeks.
Yesterday I went from ACA sd to ACA NAND.
Initially the sync / restore of all of my contacts via titanium backup went fine.
After rebooting, only 2 contacts were left.
I never did a sync with Google, maybe I'm a bit paranoid, but I don't want them to know everything...
So, left with no possibility to sync with my computer at home, BUT knowing, that all my contacts are still on my sd-card in the old android folder, I wonder, if there's a way to transfer them from their present location to the place where they should be in NAND...
Any ideas anybody?

Best way to transfer apps+data to another phone?

I am curious about what is the best way to back up apps from my current Evo and restore them on another phone? I'm asking because I shattered my Evo's screen last night after a year of taking such good care of it...and through Asurion I will be receiving an Evo 3D. Sad to leave this dev community, but I will gladly take a dual core phone over my OG.
I use TB Pro to back up and restore between roms. I normally avoid Google's backup/restore app process because it takes too long over the internet, but does that service also backup the data for the apps as well? Like saving all my info in games and such. Thanks for any input

titanium backup, just be careful with what you restore on the new device (system settings for example are a no-no)

How am I going to restore apps that are on another phone with TB?

Go on the sd card of your current phone, copy it, [or use the same sd card] start up new phone, install titanium backup, then simply restore all apps+data, NOT system settings.

This. Also TB allows you to upload your backup to a dropbox account as well, no need to move the SD card but you trade speed for convenience (dropbox process takes longer since it has to upload when the backup is created then download when you restore to the new device)
And BTW OP yes TB will also backup your game data

TB is a sure way

[Q] Using Titanium Backup to switch phone

I am moving from an HTC Rezound to the g2 and have all of my apps/data backed up on the rezound sd card. I want to restore the apps data part on my new G2 so I dont lose all the data related to each app. How would I go about doing this since the G2 does not have an sd card slot?
Thanks for any help.

I do this all the time, very easy. First download the titanium app on the G2. Open the app on the G2 and go through the initial setup/screens. Once that is done, plug in your HTC Rezound or sd card into your computer and locate the Titanium folder. It contains all of your apps/data. Save that folder to your computer. Then plug your G2 into the computer and copy and replace the titanium folder on the G2. Remember that there are going to be alot of apps that you wont be using from your old HTC so i recommend running titanium after transfer and deleting all the htc apps that are in titanium and backing up all the apps that are on the G2.

Or you can get MyBackUp Pro and do a Migrate backup.
Install the app on both phones. Make sure both are on the same wifi network & in the same room
On the old phone, hit the migrate option & select the apps & data you want transferred to your new phone.
On the new phone open the same app, go to Migrate hit that and wait for the data to flow from your old phone to the new one in a special zip file.
The new phone will take that zip & unpack the apps & data by itself!
Incredible & easy
