So I really like Titanium Backup, but my question is... when you restore backed up apps, is there a way for them to auto install without having to click "install" and "done" for each and every single app you backed up? I have a lotta apps and it gets annoying when I restore. Thanks
Batch options? its under Backup/Restore hit menu soft key..
If I am not mistaken, if you have the paid for version, you can do it in batch mode, which I am assuming doesn't prompt you for each app.
Paid version does that, well worth the money.

I'm pretty sure even the free version does batch mode, how else would you back up all your apps at once? The paid version adds Dropbox sync functionality and is a bit faster, worth the money even without these extra features.
Paid version. Worth the chedder.
SyndicateROM v1.0.2 + Xtreme kernel v1.2.0 + Emotionless beast final = Great functionality, Exceptional performance, and Sweet eye candy.
Just to note: beware Titanium Backup. We've found it causes more problems than it solves, especially when restoring apps and data.

"we've"? Ive never had an issue as long as you don't restore stock apps. Or apps already part of the rom.

The paid and free apps both do batch mode restores, but in the free app you have to click yes between each app. The paid app allows to start the restore and walk away while it finishes. Absolutely worth the price if you are trying our a lot of different roms every day. I've encountered zero issues with Titanium Backup...zero!

I have the paid version and I go to batch and pick restore all user apps plus data and it'll still ask me to hit install/done for each app and @Konane I've never had any problems with Titanium, Mybackup pro has been giving me headaches it freezes my phone when it gets to Beautiful Widgets and SNS app

Sorry for the confusion, when I use the collective "we" I'm speaking for ACS. The bugs usually crop up when one takes a backup from one ROM and restores it on another (dig through the SyndicateROM thread and you'll see several instances), but YMMV. We (ACS) don't recommend it for moving APKs between ROMs.
From my experience I just install the apks manually and then restore data via Titanium..as long as I'm using the Titanium's busy box it never failed once for restoring data.
As for clockworkmod restore method..I had it FC my Touchwiz going from DJ29 to DK17 and I was not using a custom theme or anything...
I think its all in what option you use to restore your apps and data.I find that using restore apps and all system data causes problems when going from rom to rom but if you use restore apps and data there are no problems with restoring your apps this is how I do it and have never had any problems.
Me too, I've never got MBP to complete sucessfully. So I've been using Titanium Backup, so far with no known problems.

I did a factory reset on my phone and restored all my apps through titanium backup. However, when I go to downloads in the marketi don't ee my installed apps listed.having said that, do you guys know if updates will be affected? Are they based on the apps installed or the apps listed under downloads in the market? Thanks in advance!

Try market doctor in titanium backup. It can be accessed by pressing the menu button on paid version. Not sure about free version.

I personally use atrackdog for my updates as not all my apps show up in the market due to the same ordeal.

If you redownload it will fix the market link or like mentioned before you can get the donate version of Titanium Backup.
Its no big deal either way.
It shows up now... Though I may have to check the download tab myself for updates which really isn't a big deal. I'll try the suggestions you guys have me if needed in the future again. Thanks : )

I'm about half way through Angry Birds... is there a way to move unlocked levels data to another phone of mine?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Not sure about moving phones however, i was able to back up the angry birds app with titanium backup, switch roms, and restore the app and all my unlocks and achievements were restored.
Its just a gueas but i would be willing to bet that you could install titanium backup on both phones and back it up. Then put your sd card in your other phone and restore the backup and it should be fine.
Like i saidx its just a guess but it seems to me like it would work.
Hope that helps.

Using titanium backup works. I just did it last night when I received my new evo.
Have you tried using the program "Bump" to move it to another phone?

Bump just transfers the Application, not any of the unlocked levels or achievements
Does anyone know what it is in a ROM, that when you sign into Gmail, it downloads all your applications that were installed on your device? Ive noticed alot of ROM's lately that are lacking this feature, and was curious as to what allows a ROM to do this.
Thanks
Your market saves all your paid apps. The rest you have to have a backup with like titanium backup

It also happens in the Glacier.
My theory is this. the first time you sign into your Google account via a Android phone it picks up the phone model. and the first time you sign in it figures you just got that phone so it will re-download the apps to that phone. and once you change ROMs and resign in it think "hey this phone already as the apps" so it doesn't kick it to the new ROM.
In any case the best thing to do is use Titanium Backup.
Sounds like a good theory to me.

Check under settings /privacy /back up + auto restore. I believe that's what the initial setup access.
I don't like it, new rom = new app install, just easier to eliminate problems not related to rom.
[via XDA app]
Just noticed that this can remove bloat ware never done anything like this before is that just basically things you don't need. Can anyone list the things I don't need please and can you restore once you remove.
Cheers

So freezing things just makes them inactive meaning they take up no ram?
First please use search, or look around:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13143535&postcount=1
Second you can restore everything back by reflashing system.img withouth losing data.
Yea they disappear of your app draw and goes inactive basically

Freezing the app is definitely the way to go, at least to begin with. However, while this will stop the app from loading & using up RAM this wont recover internal storage from your phone, so if youve used the phone for a week or so after freezing with no issues then you might want to delete the frozen apps.
But: If you *do* decide to delete an app make a backup of it first (this will copy it to sd card so it wont take up phone storage) in case you do decide you need it back at a later date.

So after upgrading from Nexus One to Nexus S, I expected all of my Nexus One apps to be automatically restored from google account on Nexus S. But it's not happening. Only 25 out of 100+ apps get restored.
On Nexus One I did wipes multiple times and all apps would restore automatically. Why is it not happening after upgrade to Nexus S?
Under my market account all N1 apps are listed. Nexus One is running CM7. On Nexus S I tried both stock and CM7 and it makes no difference to the restore outcome.
I didnt even know apps would restore.until i updated to 2.3.3 but updating to 2.3.4 didnt auto instal the apps,sadly.any wat to turn this on??

From my experience with the desire, only the apps which you have downloaded from the official android market are restored when you sync your phone with a newly flashed rom.

Almost all of the 100+ apps were installed on the old phone via official android market. They all are listed under my market account. But only small subset of them gets automatically reinstalled on a new phone.
The key difference here is that I want them restored on a new phone. When reflashing on the old phone, all 100+ apps get restored without any problems.

It can be turned on/off in the Settings > Privacy -> Back up my data. Also, when first time booting after wipe, the setup wizard shows dialog where this backup/restore can be disabled (it's enabled by default).
I like the feature.. Makes flashing roms cake..
What Google should do though is let you choose WHEN that restore happens and give you the option to start it manually. Coming from a fresh rom it starts the restore process on 3G service. Then you have to rush to flip on Wifi so you're not trying to download 43 apps on Sprints dialup 3G service so a few will be cut out during the transition from 3G to Wifi..
Still beats the crap out of the old way of restoring your apps.
Yeah, there should be google backup/restore native app that gives more control to the user on what and when to backup/restore.
Even better, the web market account should allow to select multiple apps and then send them to the device. Right now this is possible only for one app at a time.
Titanium ftw

The same thing happens on my phone. I disabled it and just use Titanium Backup because the google backup was too unpredictable..
For rooted users, titanium is a good solution. But it sucks that for the non-rooted ones, the feature that is part of the OS behaves so unpredictably.
