I've used this and it does a great job just ensure your contacts are synced via your google account and everything else should be fine.
could always use idrive lite to backup contacts as well
Awesome worked great.
It didnt backed up the data of my copilot like the maps.

Did you ever backup your contacts from within the phonebook?

I don't think thats the way if you want to restore your phonebook. Titanium is used if wanna backup your apps not contact. You should use backup and restore app or other method.

I was wondering how to get my apps I previously downloaded on another ROM to automatically restore with a newly installed ROM? My phone is flashed to cricket so I don't know if that has anything to do with it...Sorry for the dumb question....Thanks in advance

Google sync downloads them all. I use adw launcher that allows you to back up app placement on you home screens. Makes it real easy to resetup everything when I flash to a new rom.

The paid version of titanium backup allows one click automated reinstallations of your app backups.

I was on.free x10 i cooked my own theme didnt like it and.i went and installed some apps and.stuffs but when i restored freex10 again to take off my theme and let it be replaced whit the stock froyo one well all my apps was kept + the live wallpaper i had set before restoring again any clue ?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
I am guessing you had the same apps when you backed up before you added the theme..... If so, when you restored FreeX10 vanilla, you did a full restore and restored your settings and apps.
If you want a clean install of Freex10, reinstall custom zip via xRecovery or don't restore apps and data.
I just restored like i always used to and it never happened to me i didnt do an advanced restore :/

You should have done an advanced restore, so you don't restore apps and data.
Oh well anyways i got what i want.so its fine ;p

Sorry, I am new and maybe this is a silly question. Can I flash a new rom without loosing my apps and their settings and my games and their saves ? Like backing-up all these.

If you are rooted use titanium backup from market, but the fact you asked this indicated you need to study more before you start flashing roms
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
hahaha. Thank you very much for your quick answer ! Maybe you are right. The fact is that I already flashed my phone 2-3 times but never interested in backing-up. On the other hand now, I have spent a lot of time with it and I do not want to loose my apps. Is there something specific I should do with titanium back-up ? or I just back-up with this app and then, after I flash, I restore ? ( sorry haven' t used it before )
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Yeah you just backup before flashing, restore after. Bear in mind I don't think it is compatible between cm7/miui and samsung - based roms.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Well restoring app data can cause problems, but that is depending on what rom you are flashing to and from, and like any app you need to learn to use it I recommend paid version as it allows you to batch restore and backup

You may have problems with app data but I'm really not sure, you will know if you do because you will get a lot of fc of apps

thank you slaphead20 and jaju123 very much ! I will try to save anything I can with titanium. flashing is much more important for me.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Some games store their save files on the SD card (data or similar). So if you flash a new ROM, all you need to do is reinstall the game and you can start where you left.
Thank you !
ive never had any problems backing up and restoriing ONLY user downloaded apps between cm7, stock and miui using titanium. the only thing which would cause you problems would be restoring system apps..
if you wish to backup messages also and use them with other firmwares u could also use GoSMS, which has a backup function
While I don't have it yet I was hoping some people could tell me what the easiest way to copy my current apps over the my Nexus 7.
Just trying to get ready. Hoping it will be here next week.

If it is set up to do so, once you enter your Google account credentials it will automatically download your apps to the device. Otherwise you can go into the play store under your apps and download them.

Once you logged in with Google account in new tablet every app will be installed automatically from play store.

I recommend backing up using Titanium Backup, copy the backup file to the Nexus 7 and restore. This way, your data is also restored. Useful for games or apps that do not have backup capabilities. I.e. Generate data file.

If your titanium backup backups are stored on Google Drive you won't have to transfer any files. If there not then do so now

If you're not rooted you can't backup with titanium and the 1 app at a time is only for restoring with the free version of titanium.

well, that also means we have to be rooted when trying to restore to Nexus7 right?
Yes, Titanium Backup requires root to function in any capacity.
Is there anyway for Titanium Backup Pro (or another Play Store app) to create app+data .apk files that an un-rooted Nexus 7 could install?
ADB backup, perhaps...

download DataSync in the play store...you can transfer apps and data over wifi.
I personally just sync with AppBrain app market. That allows you to automate the process of downloading some what. Not as nice as titanium,buy it is an option that won't force you to root day 1.
