[Q] Need help restoring my phone. topic

So I am in a process of restoring my wife´s phone using stock rom. But before I begin I want to be sure I am not forgetting something.

1. The phone has been rooted, it only has link2sd and superuser.
2. A partition has been created on the SD card to move apps.
3. I want to make a hard reset on the phone, I has the flashtool program.
4. I have 4.0.2.A.0.42_Central Europe/Generic from Link. Would have preferred Nordic but couldn´t find it.
5. Am I then good to go to flash my phone? There aren´t any precautions that I am forgetting?!?

Much obliged for all the help granted :)

Backing up & Restoring Samsung Galaxy S2 topic

Hello,

I recently used Wondershare/MobileGo to back up my samsung galaxy s2 I9100 in order to factory reset it however, I realised after that to restore my phone I need to purchase the program. I am left with a .bak file, how do I use it to restore my phone to how it was before the factory reset?

Thanks

[Q] Problems restoring apps with titanium backup topic

I have been having problems restoring apps with titanium backup and so far no one has been able to find the solution, I couldn't find a solution on google and titanium backup support isn't responding to my support request. Anyways, I'm trying to restore apps from pandasa123's unofficial cyanogenmod to matrixzone's unofficial cyanogenmod. When I restore on the free version it opens install window and then when it says installing it changes to app not installed. Suspected problem apps are Bloons TD 5, Drunken Wrestlers and Star Wars: Commander. When I had the free version, it seems after trying to restore drunkin wrestlers and it says app not installed then all the apps after say app not installed except a few like google authenticator. I tried again with the paid version and it still got stuck restoring things like drunkin wrestlers, bloons td 5, star wars commander. I have already tried the troubleshooting steps in tibu and have tried multiple times to restore. I have also tried older versions no luck. I could successfully restore those apps when I went from 4.4.4 to 5.0.

Device: Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-I747M
Rooted: Yes

[Q] About restoring apps+their data and system settings after updating i9505 to 5.0 topic

Hello,
I am new to this forum but I'm pretty familiar with flashing custom roms, custom recoveries, root, flashing stock via odin and so on. There is however a thing I would like to find out from more experienced users because I want to be ready for when the 5.0 update will be released.

I now have i9505 4.4.2 stock/ no root, and TWRP 2.8 installed. Obviously I can't OTA with this configuration when 5.0 will hit.

So I was wondering how I could update to official 5.0 and keep all my apps and data and system settings.
I was thinking I could:
1. Backup my current stock 4.4.2 rom using TWRP.
2. Then flash 5.0 stock via odin/ or flash 4.4.2 via odin and then OTA to 5.0 ( which is better ???)
So now I am on 5.0 all stock, nothing else installed.
3. Then install TWRP via odin again.
4. And finally use TWRP to restore only the DATA partition from my 4.4.2 backup

Will this work and restore apps and their data + system settings ?

Thank you for your answers !

Restoring Apps from a previous Nexus 6 device or ROM topic

Hello all, has anyone else run into this issue? When installing a new ROM, lollipop gives you the ability to restore from a previous device. With my previous phones on lollipop (GNex, DNA, G2) I was able to restore from each different ROM I installed on the phone. With the N6, I have installed custom rom's on two different N6 devices and I am not getting the option to restore from either N6. This is frustrating because I have removed apps I no longer use that were on previous devices, but my only option is to restore from the previous devices and uninstall those apps again, or start fresh. Any tips for this?

[Q&A] Action Memo restoring using Titanium Backup Pro multiple versions topic

I managed to successfully upgrade my Note 3 from 4.3 to 4.4.2 (which in retrospect seems like a bad idea due to the battery drain problem).

Nonetheless, I have rooted my phone for the most part (binaries won't update properly though).

The issue I am facing though is that I used Titanium backup pro to backup pretty much everything. However, when I go to restore my action memos, It shows multiple memos as attached.

Upon restoring all 4, it shows the notes, but they are all blank.

I simply need to access the data so I can write it down. Any ideas?

Thanks!
