I know that contacts automatically update in my gmail contacts, but I also like using Verizon backup assistant as a backup plan. Are there any custom ROMS that have Verizon backup assistant built in? Or does anyone have the apk so I can install it to a diff custom ROM?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I have not found the backup assistant in any of the custom Rome that I've tried. What exactly do you like about it?
I like having an extra backup. Also, I like knowing that Verizon has my contacts just in case (God forbid) I get something in the future that's NOT a Droid.

You may want to try mybackup pro. It is a third party app that you can use to backup all the data on your phone
The Environment
I have the SM-N9005, in the UK on EE.
Android 4.3,
Baseband N9005XXUBMI6,
Kernel 3.4.0-1628120
Build JSSJ.N9005XXUBMI7
SELinux Status - Enforcing
I have just installed the rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45972118&postcount=36 where KNOX is removed.
The Issue
I previously had a Samsung Galaxy S3, i9300, running different 4.3 roms. Apps were backed up with Titanium Backup and often restored without issue.
Now when I restore apps with data on my new Note 3, some apps restore okay and run without issue (WINAMP), however others give me force closes, either when starting the app (Call Blocker) or when closing the app (Candy Crush for instance).
I am unsure if the issue lies with Titanium Backup, or the SELinux Enforcing, or the KNOX stuff, or what?
Any devs that can help, would be greatly appreciated!
I have the same issue, anyine can help? Many many thanks.

isnt this caused by a different system structure which came with JB 4.3?

We canot think like this "KNOX is remoded". We remove only some appl, but the KNOX is always there on Bootloader from hardware.
We must read and understand well this on the link:

No, because I successfully restored apps on 4.3 on my previous phone I9300..

I have changed my backup directory to the correct one (actually on my external card). This has no effect.

For me it's absolutely necessary that TB is working properly. Have you tried to contact the developer? Maybe he needs to fix the application somehow?

It's not just titanium restored aps, some aps from the play store won't work (i.e. whats ap, tasker etc) keep getting a knox notification that the ap has been blocked (even though Knox was not enabled).
Seems some sideloaded aps don't work either (adblock, adaway etc)

So you are saying that whats app is not working on the note 3?can anyone confirm this? I could not be without it. And Tasker? Anyone?

The whatsapp verification fails, it can't read the sms that you receive. On the third try I got unknown error, press to initiate a call back, this worked and gives me a manual code to verify the ap. After that I can now send and recieve messages.
Tasker just crashes for me, knox popup saying app has been closed
WhatsApp works fine with me.
Tasker seems to work ok as well.I`m not a tasker expert so maybe it could be borked on some of it`s deeper functions.
I`m running on DjeMBeY`s pre-rooted rom.It`s meant to be de-Knoxified

The issue with Titanium restores is unrelated to the Knox errors. Remove Knox completely. Whatsapp works.

That's quite normal when using Tita backup. Especially for the new device, just remove the problematic app and reinstall it. That happens to my previous Sony ZU as well.
For me, I won't restore app to my new purchased device unless apps with important data on it. I will install apps directly from play store. Then do the backup when all apps, themes are settled down. I will only restore apps in the same device just in case something happened.
The most valuable function of Tita backup for me is freeze or remove bloatwares.....

I appreciate there may be some conflicts but I have switched phone before and restored apps with data from previous phone and all was good.
I have some apps where I pay monthly via sms where I require the data to be restored.
It seems to be an issue with SELinux set to enforcing. There are many people in this forum and the GS4 forum having troubles with Titanium.

+1 here.
I had to wipe data because my first "as usual" restore data gave nothing good : apps were not launching, constantly crashing.
I'm using the google restore app functionality to ensure a minimum is install and will test that again.
I cannot believe there's no way to make TB work properly. I don't know my new device enough yet to be sure if it's that Knox thing (didn't get what it is exactly) or any re-enforced (compared to my SGS3) security stuff.
I am currently on Verizon Gnex that is running Cyanogenmod. When I get my Note3 it will be my first time moving from one phone to another.
What would be the best way to move my apps (especially the data saved by each app) from a rooted non-stock device to an unrooted stock device?
I currently have titanium backup but since root isnt yet available on the note 3 it doesnt sound like that will be useful.
Thanks for any help / advice you can give..
Although I have not tried it myself, Helium looks like a good option. Does not require root and developed by the infamous Clockworkmod.

I used Helium and everything went swimmingly. Backed up everything on the Note 2, saved in Google Drive, then went to restore on my Note 3. The only drawback is that you have to have all of your apps already downloaded on your new device before you can restore them, though the app does link to that respective app in the Google Play store so that you can redownload it.
i also read about a fix for Titanium Backup users here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2473114
Helium will let you back up the full apps as well as data. It just takes far longer to do so. I like some older versions of apps and some that are no longer available.
And Boom goes the dynamite! now Free

Install a custom rom.

Or, just root the phone, easy to do. I'd also recommend that you put on custom recovery to be safe, as it can get you out of all sorts of trouble rather than having Samsung's lame recovery.
Once you've done that, install titanium backup from the store. Freeze any and all applications you want. Download your preferred applications and you are done.
Sure, you can go the extra step of putting on a third party ROM, but for most people, that's overkill.
Once you have root, a custom recovery and Titanium Backup installed, you might want to do three things:
1. Do a ROM backup from the recovery, after it's saved move to your PC. Keep it there for safekeeping.
2. Set up a backup schedule in Titanium Backup. Back up applications and data to an SD card
3. Install Xposed Framework, and then pick a good multi-porpose module like Wanam, and you can highly customize your phone without putting on a third party ROM.
All of these three things are available and easy to find in XDA. They make your experience more powerful, customizable and safer.
Thx !

Just an fyi, it actually has the stock browser included called Internet. They just changed the home page to their own, you can change it back to whatever you like.

I dont believe it was included on the S5. I was more or less replaced with one handed mode (which can be activated in the settings) and several other actions.
I an very new to this. I have a Sprint Galaxy S4 4.4.2. I rooted it with CF AutoRoot. I installed the correct mod for wifi hotspot. After a week, the apps will not work after each individual update. I try uninstalling them. Then reinstalling them. They still will not work. This even applies to Maps. Where do I go from here?
Re root clean flash it with odin. Do a titanium backup first

not 100% sure but it sounds like you need to be searching for information about Market Links or permissions. sounds like the apps are not getting permission from the market to run, like you dont own them, so once they update they loose permissions. hope this puts in the right direction
