I've had this problem before, did you use a backup app to restore Titanium Backup? If I delete the app then download the app again it works fine.

Just like crump84 said, I was thinking the same and was kind of angry for bit until I downloaded Root Checker to make sure and then I just deleted it and redownloaded TB again and worked just fine after.

How do I flash froyo beta with out root and clockworkmod???

Hello, I am not rooted and know nothing about clockworkmod. (I have tried rooting numerous times but no success. I'm thinking drivers) I would like to know if its possible to flash it with my epic being stock? I have searched and have turned no results about flashing it from stock. Everything refers to rooted. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

You can root with z4root couldn't be easier. No PC required.

Download titanium backup.

Ok I will. I just tried flashing the beta and it says something about invalid signature??

You still need clockwork to flash.

Do I need to buy clockwork?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
No but I am not sure if you can install it without a pc. Are you using the drivers from samsung?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yes I downloaded samsung galaxy s drivers from here when I tried to root. Never for them to work even with 2 fresh installs. Thanks for the info on the z4root, by far the easiest and fastest way I've ever rooted before. But ya I have samsung drivers.

is it the same driver you get from the samsung website? You said you got them here so I am just checking cause I am not sure. I got mine right from the samsung website.

I am afraid I won't be any help there. I haven't flashed clockwork yet because I am not sure how easy it is to remove (noob) so I am waiting until Froyo releases. Unless I can't find an easy method to install it and uninstall it.
just downloaded z4root and rom manager from market
z4root installing right now

Adfree installation

Does anyone know a place I can go to get instructions on properly installing and running the app "adfree"? I tried downloading it once before and I can't get it to work properly. Thanks!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509997 that's his thread here on XDA, also I know his last update through the market said to uninstall before updating because people where having errors.

"Uninstall before updating"? Uninstall what? Adfree?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Yes, it clearly stated if you read about what was updated in the app that it was recommended to uninstall adsfree and then install latest version. I think people were complaining about java errors when just updating like normal.

Z4root does temporary root that last till u turn off

No I have perm root on mine

You don't have a custom kernel with clockwork redirector , you have to do the three button reboot and flash a different kernel, or Rom if you're on DK28
thanks for the help
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Use one click root instead of z4root. Installs cwm and all the goods for you. I think its version 2.5.5.0 your looking for if your on stock di18. If your on dk28 you can use 3.0.0.5.

TiBu on 2.3.4

Hey everyone just noticed that even with root Titanium backup doesn't recognize that I have root so it wont function. Anyone else having this issue? And yes im sure im rooted all other root apps work and I ran root check just to double make sure
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Working fine for me. Rooted using Preinstall method.
Is TiBu listed in the Superuser app?
Yeah its listed and I rooted using preinstall too.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App

The first time I rooted I had to reboot twice before TiBu would work properly.

If you see the SuperUser app, try forgetting TiBu and then running. Also run the preinstall method again.
Thanks for the help guys. Up and running with TiBu

Recovery

What recovery should I put on Droid x that was rooted with rootzwiki and how
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Thats a little broad, do you mean something like ClockworkMod? This is what you do a nandroid backup with. So if you mess something up, you can just recover your settings from any date that you ran a backup on.
If you need to backup/recover apps, you can do this with Titanium Backup.
So bootstrap2 will work with this root method

It should, yeah. But to be sure...try a backup and restore before you go changing a bunch of things.
