I have also found the Titanium backup a bit unreliable. I bought MyBackUp Pro and it is at the moment the best backup app (in my eyes)
mybackup also skips apps. perhaps only 70-80%.
I use appmanager to backup my apps, and mybackup for data, that is the best way for me.
Hi !
I'm the Titanium Backup developer.
For those who have problems with reliability (especially for the app restoration) I would recommend to try the "Problems?" button in the app which will download and install a known good version of busybox. This simple step usually annihilates most problem cases
e3zippo: thanks by the way for being a donator ! Just a question, I saw your post on the MoDaCo forum thread (sorry I can't post proper links as a new user. URL is: android.modaco.com/content/software/297171/new-software-that-can-backup-restore-all-settings-of-any-apps/ ) which led me to believe that everything worked fine for you. So which of your posts is the most up-to-date ? I assume you first had problems and then they got sorted out ?
Thanks,
Joël
Would it be possible to add a feature so that titanium backup will also back up our home screen layout? This is the only feature that I find missing in your great software.
Hi jdoo,Would it be possible to add a feature so that titanium backup will also back up our home screen layout? This is the only feature that I find missing in your great software.
Thank you for the quick response! I must have missed it since the batch backup appears to skip over system type items.Hi jdoo,
This should already be in the current version: look for something green-colored, labeled either as "Launcher" or as "Home" (depending of whether you have a google or a HTC rom)
Can you explain the different batch options for me? I'm a little confused by them.
What's the difference between the two "backup all user apps" options (why does the 'running apps will be auto-ended' one have more apps)? And what does the "force refresh of your backups" do?

Hi cigar3tteIf you have an app running that you do not want to terminate, you can use the first option. The second option has more apps listed because it does not exclude apps that are currently running.
No idea on force refresh, but it seems like it will do a full backup of apps you backed up before, and also delete what you've uninstalled but had backed up.

Hi,I am really struggling with TB. I've looked all over the internet forums and even youtube videos and everyone says the same procedure to transfer apps to new roms but it just does not work for me. I am on cm 10.1 running JB 4.2.1. I wanted to try out JellyBam rom 4.1.2. I backed up all my apps on CM and when flashed over to JellyBAM rom none of the apps are there on TB.I dont uderstand why they are not there. So I went back to CM rom through CWM recovery and tried moving the Apps to external SD card through TB. Then I flashed back to jellybam to move them from the EXT to internal and nothing. The only apps it shows are the new ones that came with JellyBam and I cannot recover any of my previous apps... anyone can tell how I can transfer them over =/ ..I know it would be an issue to transfer system apps since I am transferring to different android version but I am simply transferring downloaded apps. In the Restore missing apps with data option it says 0. any help would be greatly appreciated.
