Purpose:
To save time restoring your system apps frozen state after install a new ROM
Notes:
1. Batch functions ONLY affect apps LISTED in the Backup/Restore Tab
2. Labels allow you to save lists of specific apps
3. Make sure Auto-sync TB settings is checked in Preferences(or you may lose your labels with wipe).
4. It seems there are issues with labels not being restored after a wipe. I am working on a solution.
Steps for Setup:
1. Freeze and test until you are happy with the frozen system apps/bloatware
2. Go to Filters section and create a label. Call it Frozen.
3. Make sure the new label you created in UNCHECKED
4. Filter by all currently frozen apps. (not the new label you created)
5. Go back to the list of apps, only frozen apps should be listed.
6. One by one HOLD press each frozen app and tap "Assign Label" and select the new label you created i.e "Frozen"
The next time you install a new ROM:
1. Go to filters. Select your newly created label and Check it.
2. Go back to your list and all your labeled apps should be listed.
3. Press menu > Batch > Freeze all All User & System Apps
4. Done.

Just tried (after installing the insane Ninja Speed Freak update) on my rom, it worked flawlessly! At least an hour of re-installing my system saved..
Hey OP..
update it to this instead. faster than 1 by 1.
We will take frozen apps as an example. So first, freeze the apps you want.
Filter by frozen: Hit MENU -> Filters -> Filter by temperature -> Frozen -> Apply
Now you're seeing only the frozen apps in the list.
Create a label containing frozen apps: Now hit MENU -> Filters -> Create label -> Add/remove elements -> Select shown elements -> OK
Edit the name and hit "Save" to save the label.
To reset the filtering and see the full list again: Hit "Clear" -> "Apply".
Remember to enable the "Auto-sync TB settings" option in the Titanium Backup preferences, so that your custom labels get automatically copied to your SD card.

I knew with something as robust as TiBu that this feature had to exist. I spent hours trying to find out how to actually do it. THANK YOU.
You'd think something as handy as "assign label to filter results" or "assign label to multiple" would've been easier to find...
Love TiBu, but damn if it isn't a bit of a cluster.

Hi,
Thank you for a great guide. I followed your instructions to the letter and now have a complete filter of my Frozen bloatware. I have since uninstalled the bloatware having left it in deep freeze for plenty of time to check out how my system behaves.
However, when I now add an App to my 'Frozen' filter it automatically uninstalls it! I would expect it to simply label it as Frozen NOT remove it completely. Am I missing something?

Hey,
I just tried the procedure again on my phone and it seems to work fine on my end.
I simply followed the steps above and to try and recreate your issue I long clicked an app -> Assign Labels -> Checked my "Stuff Frozen" Label.
When I then filter for that label it doesn't show the newly added app as frozen as I didn't freeze it.
Are you running the latest version of TiBu?

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I am running the latest version.
The only difference to how you've highlighted above is that my App is already frozen, then when I assign it to my Frozen label it gets uninstalled.
Just tried it your way with an unfrozen app. Added it to my 'Frozen' label and after a reboot it's gone, uninstalled.
Is there a setting somewhere that I have told it that my 'Frozen' labelled apps should be automatically removed?
Thanks again for your help
I will definitely try this. Before I used tools that backed up apps and when I load a new rom I have to individually restore those apps.
This should save alot of time.
HEADS-UP! "Titanium Backup: (filter) labels are not restored" By BelgianAtheist, Senior Member on 15th February 2011, 03:15 PM
What I did (after hours of unsuccessfull attempts) :
1- In my new phone (Xiaomi Mi Note 2 > XMN2), I've launch a fresh TitaniumBackup, I've created a dummy label, and in settings, I've ticked "Auto-sync setting TB". This method has created a : (Internal memory) > SDCARD:/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/settings/ folder
2- From my previous phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 3 > SGN3) I've taken and copied to my XMN2 all files in (Internal memory) > SDCARD:/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/settings/ EXCEPT the : databases~sysinfo file.
3- In my XMN2, Ive delete all files in (ROOT) > /data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/databases/*.* (beware, do not delete the ./databases folder, but all files inside... thus you won't mess with permission's folder (I guess so!))
4- From my SGN3, I've taken and copied to my XMN2 ONLY those 2 files : (ROOT) > /data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup/databases/... custom + filters
5- In my XMN2, I've just restarted TitaniumBackup from menu >> restart application in bottom. And there, I've finally recover back my hundreds labelled application. Settings don't seem to be restored, but, i do not care about that. As I was able to spend hours trying to restore labels, I'll certainly can spend 10 min to setup again my new settings...

I installed this awhile ago and tried uninstalling it today but it just says something like "this program was not completely uninstalled. would you like to remove it from the list of installed programs?" and you choose yes/no, and your choice doesn't make a difference because it keeps showing up in the list anyway. Does anyone know how to uninstall this? thanks.
buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuump
Hard Reset PPC!! OK!!
Too much trouble. There must be a way to uninstall a program without having to wipe the entire device.
first as you do with any other program :
go to settings > all settings > system tab > Remove Programs > sellect IPC BlacK Dailer > and click remove ..
if it has problems so install black dailer again, and then do the the same steps above..
i wish it works with u..
goodluck
Does the Android environment suffer from registry 'junk' entries from the installation and deinstallation of applications as WM does? I'm asking because there are just so many Android applications, and the Market is often unhelpful with determining which one is right, so it looks as though much experimentation will be happening, and I don't want to muck up the system.
Thanks!
Bump. Hope someone can answer this. Thanks!
If you want to remove all possible traces when you uninstall an app. Don't just uninstall from Market.
Go to Settings > Applications > All Applications (Click on the app) then select clear cache - then select clear data if you can - then click uninstall.

Thanks, but that only partially answers my question. I would want to be sure that all traces of an application are removed, but not all traces of everything. In other words, there are apps that I intend to keep, but for those I don't want, how do I completely erase them, or are they like WM apps where no matter what you do, there are registry entries?
Also, is there a way to find the .apk and save it for future installs? For example, the Marketplace doesn't archive a list of free apps. I would want to save those in a folder, along with keys such as the Pro version of Titanium Backup and so on.
This is a very simple method to enable & disable mediascanner by just one click without having any issues and thus helps saving battery drain..

2.) Click on "Backup/Restore" option
3.) on top of menu u have option "click to edit filters".. click on it
4.) u will get option to "create label" at bottom. click on it
5.) enter a name in "new label" (say xyz) then click on option "add/remove elements" and search for "MEDIA STORAGE" application.. MARK it. SAVE ur newly created label
6.) Exit TBU and go to ur homescreen. select widget of TBU and in widget settings
a.) click on "action" and select "FREEZE all user & system apps".
b.) click on option "filter by" and select ur newly created label XYZ and then click on option "create widget"
7.) Repeat step 6 but this time selecting "DEFROST all user & system apps" after clicking on "action"

The major difference is that you have the ROM in zip file and the ROM is deodexed, zipaligned and the /system/app folder has been moved to /data/app and it supports init.d script support.
Majority of the difference is behind the User Interface. In terms of user interface they both look alike.
Have you restored your phone to Factory settings considering your problem?

Flashed your ROM, everything working fine with great speed and also the battery life got improved dramatically. Very nice work.
Yes, I restored to the factory settings but no success, looks like hardware fault. Tried wifix manager app from play store but still the wifi and mobile data disconnect while screen turns off.

Thanks for your positive feedback
Have you tried this?
Goto System Settings > Under Wireless and Networks Tap WLAN > press menu key and tap advanced > Tap Keep WLAN on during sleep and select always.
Now your phone won't disconnect, if this is the case.

Thank you for your suggestion. This is the first thing I have done, but wifi and mobile data sleeps automatically. I have tried stock roms from different devices like saadusmani's ROM and your ROM but nothing improved in wifi and mobile data connection. I should claim warranty.
But before that I need to unroot the phone and change the stock splash screen (screen before boot animation). Do you know how to change the splash screen to stock Qmobile screen?
Restore to stock firmware by downloading it from www.ehtisham.com or www.labandroid.com

As some apps are not available or their updates sometimes not possible in the place I am currently living, China, I was looking for another third party app store and found 1mobile app. And just like some of you, traveling from one rom to another rom it was a pain to install over apps from app store in case roms got different build or even android versions, besides restoring apps by titanium backup causes some problems in some cases when I tried to restore my apps. After a while using and searching in 1mobile application I saw a very interesting feature which let me backup my apps by creating a folder called "onemobile_backup" without their data or messing around and restoring apps quickly.
So you can follow my tips if you are interested:
How to Backup
1- open 1mobile app and go to settings
2- go to end of settings option and hit Auto install and give root permission
3- and again hit Auto install and check if it enabled successfully
4- go to "Backup" and check every apps you like to backup
you can also update backup of any app, on "Backed Up tab": lower version in front of apps indicates that you have newer version available so just hit on small "x" behind the app (this would delete backed up app) then switch to "Available" tab and see that newer version is there, again tick and make a backup of new version.
How to Restore
If you already gave root permission skip 1,2,3.
1- open 1mobile app and go to settings
2- go to end of settings option and hit Auto install and give root permission
3- and again hit Auto install and check if it enabled successfully
4- go to "Backed Up" tab
5- tick every app you are going to restore
6- finally hit blue install button
7- wait for a little while and let the app restore your applications one by one
There maybe also similar apps doing the same but I found this app more convenient and quicker besides it's free and can update itself.

No data. Only apps that's why I'm telling it won't cause any problem.
