Hi
Got new nexus 6p, have old note 4. I have the note 4 setup with TI and it backups to Gdrive and drop box. How do I get the config over from the N4 to the 6P.
Do I use Ti to send app and data for Ti from the N4 to the 6p ? and then just copy over the TI backup directory ?
Thanks
If you just want to transfer the config of TI; there should be a TitaniumBackup folder on your storage, which you can just transfer iirc.

I can use an OTG adaptor to connect to a flash drive but do not know how to copy the files from flash drive to the Nexus 7 or vice versa. Do I need other apps and/or hardware?

You need a file manager like es file manager. It will allow you to view, delete, copy and paste files between the stick and nexus 7. If your on 4.2.1 and using stickmount, you will find the contents of your stick in /usbStorage in the sdcard directory.

You need stickmount in 4.2.1 to mount the flash drive. /usbStorage does not appear until the stick is mounted. Stickmount can be found in the market.

I got it from Google Play but it requires rooted. Thus I cannot use it.

The Nexus Media Importer app lets you transfer files from the flash drive to your Nexus without root. It will also stream media files on the flash drive to some player apps e.g. to view movies stored on your flash drive. It does not allow moving files from your Nexus to the flash drive, however. Again, no root is required. I think the app costs $4.00.
Could some one help me out here? I tried connecting my phone to PC. I was able to access storage, however, I couldn't access " data/media/clockwork" from there since I only seem to have access to my phones sdcard folder.
Next I used root browser to try and move the files to my SD card. Didn't work. It copy and pasted but the file either didn't get copied or its size was 0 bytes. Tried deleting one backup. It says is been successfully deleted but it stays there and no space frees up on my phone. I'm clueless as to what I should be doing next. Anyone?
Thanks in advance

Move or copy the clockworkmod file straight to the sdcard. System and Data files are not viewable on the pc. Just copied a nandroid to the sdcard with Root Explorer, no problem and it shows up when connected to the pc.

You can also delete backups when in CWM itself, in case you didn't know
Thanks for help guys. It was a simple solution, but often the simple things are overlooked. There must have been something wrong with my superuser permission. Restart fixed it.

Next time, use Dropbox or something to automatically backup your photos.

recoveriung files from SD is way too easy, recovering from internal memory mpt is hell, only for real men
there is this guide but it is impossible to understand it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705
Read the description, SD card OR Internal storage.
MTP is how you connect the phone to the computer, the restoration is done on your phone so MTP shouldn't be in the way,

Hi, I've made two different nandroid backups using twrp in the last couple weeks and both times when I try to transfer the backup to my laptop through data cable it only transfers like 10 megs of the data and does nothing else, even though the file has almost 3 gigs in it. If I open the backup folder itself and select every item in there and try to transfer that way, same thing, most of the items just don't copy over, don't get an error or anything.
Furthermore, if I use a file explorer and try to transfer the backup folder to my external SD card, I get an error message (cant remember what it said and I already deleted the backup as it was taking up too much space).
Any ideas about what's going on? I will try to do another backup soon but it's pointless if I can't move it anywhere, since I don't want it taking up space on my phone. Thanks guys!

What type sdcard? 32g, 64g?
Hi, just a 16 gig. I didn't think it was the SD card though because even when the backup is stored on the phone itself, it still won't transfer to the computer (via a usb cable)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
on the pc transfer can you copy smaller files of anything to pc from phone
try different cable or pc
try a different recovery and see if things copy ok--maybe the backups are bad
not sure on internal transfers--try the stock file mgr "My Files" and try with smaller files also
i have a 64gb samsung pro exfat--works perfect

Umm.... I don't see how this would work. You can't really transfer the apps themselves without root at least. The app data, maybe.

There is an app called Helium that you can get on the Play Store, that should help. It's buggy and some apps aren't supported, but it at least something. If you want to root your phone, then use titanium backup, and transfer the files via usb cable to your pc, then to your new phone, as the person above said. Then just restore using Titanium Backup again on the new phone.
Why can't he transfer the entire Titanium Backup folder over?
I can't find any reason not too.
Usb otg works as well. I use rom toolbox pro for backups and I just did a fresh backup to the sdcard of my razr, popped it into the $5 otg adapter I got from dealxtreme, and transferred the whole app_manager folder onto my g2. When I installed rom toolbox it found everything & I could do a batch restore of apps/data.

Agreed. In the "SD card" folder is the TB folder. This should contain all of the back-up files. Transfer them as you would any other files.

I am on STOCK ROM and not Rooted. I do not see SDCARD folder? Do I have to be rooted?

SDCARD is just going to be your main folder using any file manager. However, as far as I know, TB is limited to rooted devices or ADB. I am not familiar with how the non-rooted TB works as I have never used it. I root every phone by the time I leave Verizon's parking lot.
Am I missing something, not fully understanding or OP just makes his life more complicated than it supposes to be???
I still don't understand why can't he just "transfer" them over.
OP, your old phone, called phone A, has TB folder, your new phone, the G2, called phone B, unrooted. You don't have SD card.
Why can't you "transfer" that TB folder from phone A to your PC then from PC, "transfer" them to phone B?
What stop you from doing that? You can do wirelessly or using usb cable.
Can you treat that TB folder like your "personal" folder which hold your documents or pictures?

Thanks, I may be making it more difficult for me, I wasn't sure about ROOTED phone (A) vs Non Rooted LG G2 (Phone B). Especially when it comes to TB. I wll try and see what happens.
