I recently switched my sm900w8 to the xnote rom and executed the TB app and data zip file, all my apps are on my phone but their data seems not to be added. I switched to this rom before and it did this weird thing where all apps were quitting and then suddenly its fine, but this time I do it, there is no app data. I just ran the app that runs a script to fix the TB restore problem but its still not working. What can I do?

Use TB Restore Fixer to fix it.

I tried that and it did not work. I wiped my device again and flashed the update.zip file again and the same thing happened, apps slowly started to be added to the phone and no data was added.

I am sure that i used the backup user apps and system data. I have no clue why it's not working l and some of the apps that were backed up did not get installed on the phone. I suspect that it never used the backup. Maybe there was nothing in the update.zip.

Try transferring your backup.zip tu pc or use es file manager and lets check if it has your apps with the data or not.

I have been doing some research in what the update.zip file is and what I think it is is a file for installing titanium backup on a phone, not for getting your data back. This means that I have lost all of my data.

I have been rooted for a while, and have always had a custom ROM but I wanna try going stock using xposed. How would I flash the stock image? Do I just treat it exactly like a new ROM? Or do I have to do something special or different? I normally use Titanium, but I will make both a titanium backup and a nandroid backup if I do this. Thank you for any help.

When you switch ROMs, what's the easiest way to restore everything else? Android will restore apps (and their data?) but how do you restore all your shortcuts, folders and such?
There are so many cool ROMs on here to try but it takes me hours to restore everything, I usually just try one and end up keeping it.
Titanium Backup Pro, take a full system backup, after flashing a new ROM just restore the install missing apk option only, and other than text messages and call logs, everything will be restored.
Nova Launcher

I used to backup apps using ES and also install them back and finally after installing all apps, I used to recover my Nova backup, which would setup my homescreen, icons, widgets and shortcuts...
I'd recommend not to backup and restore app data for all apps as I see few people reporting issues with it

So, you DO NOT recommended using an automated system to restore apps and data?
What do you do instead? Do you just re-install all of them manually? That's so time consuming, it takes me almost a whole day!

I'll open the apk backup folder in ES and select all and click Install. I'll automatically show next app once the first one is installed. Just need to Click install and done. No need to manually go back to folder and install separately

I'm not sure, it always shows up for me. You could try copying the contents of the Titanium folder to another folder using a file manager on your phone, and then copying it to your PC.
I have the same issue. The titanium backup folder shoes up as 0 yet file in map mode. However, if you boot into TWRP and connect to to PC, the folder shows as a folder and can be copied. Not sure why this is but would love a solution.
Hey! I was asking if you guys know a good way to fully backup a phone (like cloning it).
I would try some ROM like PA and some other but I also want to be able to good back to the state I'm right now (fully configured, with all apps I need, and when restoring this backup I would like to have exact same app data, configuration, account, everything in fact).
I don't even know if it's possible x)
In all case, thanks for your answer
https://www.technipages.com/how-to-backup-your-entire-android-device
You shouldn't need to install ADB tools though, they come included on the additional partition OnePlus adds with drivers, just copy those files over to your PC
Adb already installed
Thanks for it mate. I'll do this tonight and cross my finger hoping it would work as I think
TWRP. If you are installing ROMs TWRP would already be there and all you would have to do is create a backup.

App data IS backed up by TWRP but anything you see in internal storage is NOT backed up by TWRP.
The way I do it is:
Titanium Backup for all user apps
An app called pairs for Bluetooth and WiFi backup and restore
Create a Nova backup for my home screen setup
Transfer any media (such as photos and music) to my PC
And then I go about flashing a new ROM/clean flashing my current ROM.
I do end up having to go through my ROM settings over again, as well as setting up system apps again, but it's not a huge deal to me.
This feels like the "cleanest" way to backup and restore, so it's a small price to pay! (For me at least lol)
Can you confirm that even chrome app data is being saved and restored? Eg: cookies
Thanks!
