i was having a few issues with my phone so i decided to make a backup using the built in app. the problem is after i restored my phone, it cant find the file in the app to restore the data back on the phone. is there any workaround or hotfix that has worked for you guys?

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
So before I went to 2.2.2 I backed my data, now I have some annoying crashes. I first noticed my music app crashing, I deleted it and made a fresh install to fix that, then going over the rest of my apps I actually noticed quite a few that were crashing because of the restoring. My main issue is alarm clock. I restored my settings of stock clock app and now it crashes and I can't set the alarm anymore... I tried deleting stored data, but that didn't fix it for any of the apps that crash. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?
i use to use t backup but it never proberly worked for me for some reason so i did a bit of searching and i use mybackup its availble on the market hope that helps
I get this with many apps (not all) when I restore them using Titanium Backup. What I've found is if I just restore the app w/o data, they all seem to work fine. If I restore App+Data, that's when it crashes. Hope this helps you.
Titanium backup
I quit using app backups long ago... I prefer to download the apk to my computer and keep them on file.
If I have to do a flash or restore then I install manually and since then I have never had to worry about force closes.
The advantage to this is that I find myself much more familiar with my phone and what it does. Instead of having a bunch of programs that do the same thing, I have cut down on my app installs by half and now my phone is quicker and more intuitive
Yeah, I guess I need to switch back up app. Thanks for the tip about restoring just the app without data, that did in fact fix the problem.
Is there any way to fix my clock stock app? Titanium restores only data, so when I try to access the alarm, it crashes. Any way to reinstall it without factory reset?
cdzo72, Well, backup is more convenient, because it restores your settings as well.
agree sometimes backing up data aswell has strange results in the end
Hi Guys
I have the rom that you can see in my signature. I'd like to know if, when I'll install the JVH 2.3.3 ROM, I can restore my saved apps with TitaniumBackup without problems.
Thanks
Yes, just remember not to restore system apps. It is also best in my experience not to batch restore but do it one by one, and for most of them just restore the app, not data. Only restore app+data when you really need whatever settings were in the app.

lkh5650, saves are in these programs and will be restored along with them.
I am moving from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3 using Titanium restored all the programs, their data and some system data, as pim (log of calls can not be restored). Everything else I do not advise.

thanks for the reply
does that mean i only need to restore the app?? i dont have to restore app+data?
lkh5650, I always choose "Restore all apps with data", and then remove the check mark in the list of unnecessary items (all red - is a system software, and optionally the green - leaving only pim).
Thanks guys!
However, I backup the 90% of the "user apps" (I exclude big games and so on). Then there is no chance to restore system apps or something like this.
Thank you again!

Note that you can't revert SMS/MMS from 2.3.3 to 2.2.1 with TB, the database are incompatibles.

Contacts/Texts/(+other system data) is okay from 2.2.1 -> 2.3.3
However, if you backup system data from 2.3.3 and restore it to 2.2.1 you will get force closes.
So you can upgrade and keep your data, but can't revert

Or just save all that to Google or your SIM card and restore as needed.

hey guys,
i moved from JPJ 2.2.1 to JVB 2.3.3 with all ease and no probs at all. even restored all my messages and contacts. here's what i did.
1. backup eveything with titanium. all of it.
2. use go sms to backup all your sms's.
3. use contacts to export ur contacts to sd.
4. flash JVB da way u want.
5. once ur on 2.3.3 and running all well. install TB. goto batch option. click restore missing apps. in the menu select apk only. and recheck all apps are user apps only. if there is a system app (in green or red) deselect it.
And voila! all ur apps are back. now u can pick and choose wich ones u want to restore data for. personally i found restoring data for games is no problem.
6. via my files app goto ex-sd card and find out the .vcf file that was created by contacts and click it. itl will restore all ur contacts.
7. reinstall go sms. and restore your messages.
8. create a nandroid as quickly as you can so u can avoid all the inconvenience and simply restore data from nandroid when u change to another gingerbread from this one.
Cheers! and happy flashing
Basically, I backed up all of my apps + data from my old phone and moved the backup folder to my new phone.
When I want to batch restore the app and data they fail. When I click on an individual app (that is obviously recognized), it has no option to 'restore'. However, if I install the app via the play store, Titanium Backup let's me restore the data. Which leads me to believe there is an issue sideloading the app itself. I do have the Security > Unknown Sources checked.
Has anyone had this issue or knows how to resolve?
I haven't used tibu to restore apps and data in quite some time so I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions. Buts probably just because your trying restore data from your old phone without installing the app first :-/

I flash to KitKat factory image from CM10.2 (wiped everything including my internal memory), and then I flash to CM11 nightly and use titanium backup to restore only my app data. and here is where the problem comes in, none of my data is restoring from Titanium, although it says data restore completed in titanium, it actually isn't. Every apps force close when I open it after restoring. After that if I restart my phone, those app that i restored will be disappeared from my app drawer, it didn't appear in settings -> app either, if i try to install again it won't install, only way is to manually search for the apk file through file manager and delete it. I cant restore anything from titanium backup! FYI, I only backup the data of the app, not including the apk, but after restoring the app force close and restarting my phone the whole app gone missing from my app drawer. I can't lose all my data. what can I do? please help :crying::crying:
Another question, every time after u guys flash a new rom do u restore the old android ID or use new one in titanium backup?
Latest update of TB has caused some issues for many people. For me, on some roms, it fc's when I click an app to restore. Try googling for an apk of a previous version, and see if the problem persists. Regarding the id, you can keep the new one. Some functions might not work properly though, like location update. You can go into your settings for your Google account on a computer and withdraw access rights for apps and devices, then everything is fine. Hope this helps. Good luck!
