I bought Titanium Backup Pro and have a key.
However, whenever I flash a new ROM, all my apps start coming back. If I try to install the Key from the Play Store, it gets pushed under everythign else and downloads at the end.
I tried the option in Titanium Backup settings where it copies Titanium Backup as an update.zip to the sd card, but that only restores the regular, FREE Titanium Backup app, without the key.
So my question is: How do I restore the Titanium Backup Pro Key on my first boot into a new rom, without installing any of the other apps I previously had? (I prefer to restore everything with Titanium Backup, rather than letting the Play Store do it)
Thanks for reading

When you flash a new rom uncheck keep this phone backed up with my google account. That is not exactly how its worded but its in the initial set up.

I do the following steps:
before installing new ROM,
I first back up all apps using Titanium Backup. I ensure that I back up the Titanium PRO app as well.
Then after installing the new ROM... i do the following:
after signing into the phone - I go to play store and stop all downloads and install Titanium Backup free.
when I run the free version it automatically registers the PRO version as it is backed up in it.
then I can restore all other apps using Titanium back up PRO.

Let me know if this was helpful to you.

Yeah I figured it, what I have to do is sign in from my account but uncheck the boxes for backing up accounts and restoring to the phone. Then I just download both the program and its key from the market. Thanks!

How is the Dev support for the TB Pro?

I leave the option to keep my phone baked up to my account when I flash a new rom, but always uncheck the first option that says something to the effect of "restore from my account". Then I grab tb from the play store, unless the rom has a baked in file explorer, since I keep a copy backed up in my storage.

Installing my backup root prior to flashing a new rom will do absolutely no good if you wipe data.

You guys are unchecking the 'backup to google accounts ' box, but can you check it again, later on? Because I do want my stuff to be backed upwith google as well.

You dont have to uncheck anything, as soon as the phone gets to the homescreen just go to the play store and stop the downloads just takes a click. Keeping google restore checked you will have your contacts back as soon as you boot up.

Contacts will restore whether the restore from Google account is selected during initial setup or not, as long as contacts are allowed to sync with your account.

Titanium PRO and RUU Europe_3.14.401.27

I installed stock ROM Europe_3.14.401.27 and rotted via HTC, but Titanium pro tells me "NOT ROOTED"
Tried the recommandations like wipe, use rcm set privileges, no prevail,
Anybody has new ideas?

Solved the problem by installing openrecovery-twrp and than in recovery mode CWM-SuperSU-v0.99
Now Titanium Pro works

TB not restoring apps

Hello, before I installed Pac-Man 4.4, I made a backup with TB. Ported them with usb to my desktop from the computer. did a full wipe. flashed pacman 4.4 and gapps. then i installed tb from the play store, also pro version, then ported the files back from computer to tb file, opened tb and want to choose restore but there are zero apps to restore and normaly there are 350. Some help is welcome :) thank you.

SOLVED: and sorry for posting on the wrong place, this was for the I9305 (Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE)

backup from phone to desktop file the name of the file went from

air.byss.mobi.instaweatherpro-20140105-223234.properties to air.byss.mobi.instaweatherpro-20140105-223234 - Copy.properties
and
air.byss.mobi.instaweatherpro-20140105-223234.tar.gz to air.byss.mobi.instaweatherpro-20140105-223234.tar - Copy.gz

installed "lammer context menu" ---> batch rename .... remove - Copy
