i uninstalled the WiFi calling app but i did not did a back up of it
anyone can pull it for me? thanks!
all you have to do is download the stock ROM and pull the application yourself, who knows you might learn something while looking around in the ROM
I made a backup using Titanium before I deleted it, and for some reason Titanium no longer shows it on the list of uninstalled items. Is pulling done through adb?
Just a thought since you have Titanium Backup.. you could always do a reset and then restore all your settings using the Titanium Backup. But update your backup once more before hand.

Yeah, that was the plan. Now I just have to care enough to bother doing so. If anyone manages to pull the files, I'll definitely make use of them
Took me some time to find a solution, a lot of googling,
eventually I found this magic post
And I thought it deserves a better spotlight.
1. Copy /data/system/packages.xml to your PC. (or edit it somehow...)
2. Edit it, find the line with your app name that looks something like :
Code:
<package name="com.sec.android.app.samsungapps" codePath="/data/app/com.sec.android.app.samsungapps-1.apk" nativeLibraryPath="/data/data/com.sec.android.app.samsungapps/lib" flags="1" ft="134880eb380" it="11b7e237e00" ut="134880eb753" version="26114" userId="10039" enabled="false">
3. This line freezes samsung apps, which I wanted to desfrost to make S-Choice work. Change the false, to true > Save.
4. Copy the file back to the phone.
5. Contact titanium backup author and report this bug.
Reboot, Enjoy.
PS - I did not find the solution myself, I am just making a solution found by olympicchicken More readable and searchable.
I too have been having the problem with not being able to unfreeze system apps. What worked for me is to uninstall the frozen app from within Titanium BU (be sure to have a backup before uninstalling). Then just reboot and was able to restore the app through Titanium BU.
Don't know if it made any difference but I had done the app backup in Titanium before I froze it in the first place.

I didn't backup any of the system apps I froze before freezing, hence if I would have deleted them, I would have been deleting the only apk copy i had of them.
Could somebody please check their /data/system/packages.xml for the line referencing "com.sec.android.app.controlpanel" (Task Manager) and post this entire line for me?
I've stupidly uninstalled it and TB can't restore it from backup as the line is missing.
Cheers.

Even if you have an app frozen you can still select backup. Then uninstall the app, reboot, and restore the app.

That didn't work as TB just hangs when trying to restore. I don't have a nandroid backup so if someone can post that line then I can at least fix it manually.
A simpler way to locate the particular line is by searching for "false" will keep showing all the frozen apps ) much faster too
I can confirm the uninstall and restore method worked for me..
I had frozen all three samsung app services(app, account, una) and I wanted to unfreeze them because of the free Dead Space and Modern Combat offers and I couldn't unfreeze them..
So as they were already frozen I made a back up of them, uninstalled them, reboot and restore them.. Worked like a charm..
Thanks guys.
I also try to contact the TITANIUM BACKUP developer informing about this bug... but not update avaible for the moment!
The file-edit method did not work for me. However, the uninstall/restore did. You have to convert system apps to user apps to backup them first, but it's quick and easy.
Possible solution
Hi guys,
Check out this test version of TB and try the "power defrost" feature in Batch menu. Hopefully it will help

I accidentally erased android off my nexus, but was able to reinstall it. But, in doing so, I had to erase my internal storage on the device and wiped all my titanium backup backups. Is there ANY way to get them back? Google reisntalled all my apps but all their data is lost! Please help! Thanks!

Sorry to say this but if you wip your internal sd,your data is gone for good, you should have put a backup of your back on your computer. This happened to me too

In the future, you can also set TiB to copy your backups to Dropbox.

I had something similar happen. TB updated & when I relaunched all backups were gone. I'm set to upload to Dropbox but have never done it. Any 411 on how to do that? Thx

Open TiB, menu, preferences, enable drop box, set where you want to save the info.
Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.

Hi Trickster,
Thx for the reply. I've got the saving to Dropbox happening, its restoring FROM Dropbox that I've never done before. Will it populate the TB Backup folder on the int memory of my Samsung S3 for me to then perform the "restore" manually or will it actually perform a "restore" of the phone? Thx

Hi,
found what I needed at the TB website:
"How can I restore my backups from Dropbox / Box.net / Google Drive if my SD card failed or my phone got stolen ?
http://www.titaniumtrack.com/kb/tit...ore-backups-dropbox-if-sd-card-fail-or-stolen
Now to try and implement!
Hope this helps others.
Buy a Rasberry Pi, stick Rasbian on it, turn it into a NAS, connect a USB harddrive to it and backup everything. Install Truecrypt to it to make it secure.
I use rsync over ssh from my desktop to my NAS and copy any Titanium backups from Android to the NAS. Critical files I also copy to a 2nd NAS I keep in another place. The NAS also is for streaming media to help with the limited internal storage, you can mount to give you a 1TB Tablet.
I personally now don't trust Google's backup/restore, it doesn't do a 100% perfect copy and seems to carry over some performance-limiting settings when you use it to restore after a fresh install.
Hi guys,
Today I updated my Note 3 from Omega V6 to V11, I got it wrong a couple times so had to full wipe twice or so and restart the process.
Beforehand I had done a titanium backup, cwm backup. I copied them onto my lappy, with the efs backup also.
Once I had Omega v11 installed I booted into cwm and tried to restore from my backup, this sent me into a bootloop so I started the process again. This time I tried restoring from titanium backup and it did a great job, but my picture gallery is missing alot of photos and photos I had in hide it pro are gone.
I tried restoring hide it pro and gallery in titanium backup as a single restore task/job and still didn't do the trick.
I'm guessing the reason why I go into a bootloop when I tried to restore from cwm is because my backup was from 4.3 and now I'm on 4.4.2?
Is that right?
The day before I actually went from v5 to v6 so maybe that's why my hide pro files are gone? because omega installed it again?
After I had installed v6 I deleted my v5 backup files and made new ones.
Unfortunately I didn't check my files after installing v6 and I deleted my old backups without thinking, so I'm not sure if they were there after a v6 install.
I know I should have done a manual backup, lesson learnt, I had alot of sentimental photos I was meant to share but hadn't gotten around to it yet..
Is there anyway I can get my files back? Or anyway I can restore from my cwm backup?
Thank you.
Go into titanium backup but mind that you will need the pro edition as long as i can remember,press menu key and see under special backup and restore
Extract from Nandroid Backup .
CLICK that and choose the backup you did using cwm and find your desire app
I hope this works for you . I hate it when VAULT or such apps loose your pics when you upgrade the app itself

Unfortunately that didn't work, I'm assuming the pictures were deleted from when I went from v5 to v6. Going to try and recover my deleted backups from my MacBook. Thank you again for you help, will report back if successful!

Took me a while but I found the thanks button haha, I wasn't logged in..
Several data recovery apps later could not recover my previous backup, lesson learnt.
Thank you anyway, I appreciate you help. :highfive:

not sure if this is the same problem that you have but it looks like my phone internal wipes each time I upgrade the Omega ROM where it takes out the internal.
Maybe teaching the 'sucking eggs' thing here but it isn't just a case of the apps are looking at internal memory instead of over on your extSDcard is it? Titanium and many other apps need to be told to save/restore to/from the extSDcard.- maybe it's all sitting there waiting for you to point the apps to the right place?

Thank you for reply, I just checked and there was no titanium backup on my extSDcard, it was on the internal and that's where I copied it from to my mac Thanks anyway!
One more thing guys, I was just browsing through es file explorer and noticed my downloads folder is gone. Does titanium or cwm backup, backup folders? I just tried restoring "Downloads" in titanium backup and extracting from nandroid, and still no Downloads folder in my directory Just wondering maybe if the files are named something else?
Otherwise it was erased when I went from v5 to v6 and backed up the newly erased and clean v6 files, not realising my files are gone.
Thanks
Titanium backup messed up the data and did not restore the app but deleted it. Can someone share apk file please?

Have you ever had luck restoring system apps through titanium? Ever since Android 7 nougat I've never gotten it to work. It just sits there constantly restoring. I can send you the APK for it if you want

i realized it wasn't working properly, so i factory reset the phone and set up everything from scratch (sign...). I only used it now for disabling the bloatware)
