Uninstalling without losing data?

I have a 16gb nexus and with these big apps I'm losing space quick. With the sale on I want some new apps so need to get rid of some games I'm not playing as much but I want to come back to so i don't want to lose data...is there a way of doing this or getting an app which does? I'm not rooted so root options are useless to me..
thank you in advance...

Those data were stored in /0/Android/data folder. Just choose where you wish and copy the chosen data.

backup the app data with titanium backup, then restore that data when needed

I said I wasn't rooted so that isn't an option.

Extract save files from backup

So I was playing final fantasy dimensions and my phone froze. It would not boot up no matter what I did. Mind you I had 15 hours into the game. I made a backup of the ROM just incase I could get the save data. Can anyone direct me on doing that?

Use titanium backup to extract the apk and data and restore it.

How do I do that from my backup? It wasn't a titanium backup. It was a cwr backup.

Hi,
It's an app: Titanium Backup.

I know about titanium backup but I don't know how to access my backup from cwr in tibu.

Then you should have been more specific.
In the main menu, under "Special Backup/Restore" There is an option to extract from a nandroid.

Reminds me of the old days when you'd be way into your Nintendo game and the cartridge would take a crap. God that sucked.

I'm so glad I did a backup. I was thinking I would have to use my desktop to extract the save then manually place it in my android files.

Titanium backup is so worth buying the pro version of. I can't tell you how many times it has saved my life.

I got the same bug when I was playing, and did a backup, then I used nandroid manager to get back my data/sms/wifi setting

Just delete

uninstall Polaris (or any other included app)

I just loaded up Clean Rom and not sure if it included Polaris or not but I cannot for the life of me get it to uninstall, can't find it in Titanium Backup to do it there either.....

Samsung doesn't want you to get rid of Polaris

How do I uninstall it?

Figured out had to filter in TiBu to show apps with no backup, then it showed up. You would think a ALL selection would show it but it doesn't

[Q] Important backups?

Hi
i have now rooted my D802, easy as hell.
I wonder if theres some important backups i need to do. I have backed up me EFS with SAManager (3 modem files, modem, modemst1, modemst2, all img) and transfered them to a safe place.
Is there something else i need to take a backup off?

Weird, my EFS backup has only the last two files you mentioned, not the first one.

Yes of course but if something break like ui you may need to restored that even if you don't plan to system mod?
