Hey Guys,
After flashing a Custom ROM, i went to restore all my apps from Titanium backup but it gave me the warning that my device's 'Android ID' has been changed and gave me the options to restore the old one/ask later/keep the current one.
Does anyone know the best way to proceed?
Yes, hit restore, it will reboot, job done

Is it necessary to restore Android ID? I always ignore it and haven't notice any problem yet.

I think it applies to root protected apps ie banking etc, so if you don't have these I don't think you will get problems

I tried a Titanium restore too, and just had to factory restore thanks to it screwing everything up. At least the root stuck through the restore.
I will try yo extract from Apps folder. Hopefully i can post here

Sorry but it is not possible to restore files from a full-wiped S3 since the data partition is for multiple reasons no longer an additional fat32 partition but piggybacking in the system's ext4.
However I want to point out that a full-wipe is only done on the stock recovery, not when using Cwm.

There seem to be many ways to back up your EFS, which is the preferred method and easiest to restore if anything does go amiss? Or is it best to use a couple of methods just in case?
why did you post a question in this section?
Use all of them. Many backups better protection

Can anyone give me there favourite method or is it belts and braces and use everything? When I root again i was going to use goomanager and install TWRP does this also backup EFS?
Root your phone, navivate to /efs folder and backup it to external sd card
Sent from Hell thanks to Android
so a simple copy and paste would restore my efs folder in the event of a mishap?
Go to the market their are a number of tools or go to the faqs and guides .
Many custom roms now backup EFS on install .

Thanks. Guys. I want to make sure ive got everything covered before I flash a ROM. I know it may seem a bit excessive but I like to be prepared.

Not excessive just unusual most noobs just blindly ignore all the instructions .
Suggest you also copy the backed up EFS to your PC for double safety .

I'll take that as a compliment
Ill back it up on pc and dropbox.

Ok. If I may ask another question.
Im ready to root using cf auto root. Then I back up efs using efs pro...
Then I install goomanager and flash twrp recovery. Can I then use this to back up efs again? Whilst rooted I also browse ro efs folder and copy it to hdd for safe keeping.
After this I can flash a ROM safe in the knowledge that my imei is safe.

Happened to me before when I did flash the wrong status bar for the firmware version or odex/deodexed version.
You can try a dirty flash of the stock rom without wiping data or moving the SystemUI.apk into the appropriate folder, give the permissions correctly and restart the phone (not sure if this would work though).
yeah actually i thought about that..but im keeping that option for last xD...how did you solve the problem?

for what? flashing a rom? have a look in the general section's stickies, there is a guide on how to.
If you have a nandroid backup just restore.
Otherwise reflash your rom and restore data.
just move the original systemui to /system/app and set the correct permissions.
and if you should have a backup if you followed the instructions
i dont have a backup :/
how do i fix permisions??
