I would also love to have a way to restore apps and folders the way I arranged them. I

Which launcher you are using?

Titanium does it.

TB does NOT back up layout.
Use Nandroid backup to restore data only .
But you may find some apps fc or do not work.

Calendar local storing

Hey, ppl does anyone know of an app Calendar that stores the entries locally (on the sd or phone) so that I can move them later by hand. I find it much better to have a hard backup on my pc than on some server...
And can anyone tell me whats the theme with the pockets in the corners for 3 apps pls?
Thanks in advance!

Titanium backups apps with the data they carry! It asked me if I wanted it to return only the calendar apk or the apk+the data. Thanks for the advice...

[Q] How do I delete the bloat ware on s3 ??

Hi Guys....
I have rooted my GT-19300T Australian version of S3 and want to delete the bloat wares to extend the battery drainages and hope to get more ram memories.
Can anyone guide me as to how to delete the bloat wares and the list of bloat wares that can be safely removed please??
Thanks in advance
use titanium to first freeze the apps, then, if there are no ill effects, remove them.

Hi!
As what i know, to completely uninstall a stock application.. you have to be rooted. I use SystemAppRemover

Have to be rooted to remove system apps. Alternatively may just disable them in settings > application manager without root.

You should be able to remove system apps using titanium backup or Rom toolbox. But as previous poster said its better to freeze them first using either of the above applications.

I use this app to delete the bloatware. It costs $1 well worth it.

Phone & contacts application lag

i have a problem in my galaxy s3 with contacts and phone application when i open phone to dial its delay for upto 6 seconds and the same problem in contacts i don't know what to do i tried to format the contacts and restore them again and still have the same problem I also used different custom roms but they all have same problem so what I do plz I need help.

Hi, that contacts and phone dialing open-up lagging has been a common Jelly Bean issue. It has been started since they included the contacts inside the Phone App. I do not know any solid workaround. However, they seem to improve the lagging time by firmware upgrades.
download exDialer from playstore
Thanks for helpful reply. Is there way to lock phone & contacts application in memory.

Titanium Backup issue

Hello XDA. I don't know if this is the right place to be posting this but I need some help with titanium backup. Every time I backup my apps and then restore them, the apps that have been restored don't show up in the notification bar when I receive a notification from that app. So I have to reinstall all my social apps so that I will get notifications from them. Or else people would talk to me on Facebook messenger, for example, and I would only be able to see that the moment I open the app. Because there's no notifications on the restored apps with titanium backup.
Does anybody else have this issue? And possibly a fix? Thanks.
Also, I use titanium backup premium version 5.7.0.1

Do not bump before 24 hours has passed. I will report it next time.
I often have a problem with ebo birthday after a restore. Usually I have to remember to run the app once after a restore then it works fine. Maybe Facebook too. Though I'm not sure its titanium backup....

You've already gotten an answer. Run each app after a restore.

That doesn't work. I found that only instagram, facebook and messenger lose their ability to share notifications with the phone. And I use those apps a lot so I can say I ran them after restoring. And notifications still don't pop up. Therefore, no, I don't have an answer.

[Q] Move apps to sd.

Hey, i have a quick question, i have a rooted galaxy s2 gt i9100, and i was wondering what happens if i force to move an app like Facebook to my sd card using titanium backup.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
err, it moves..
Thank you but i mean, does the app crashes or slows down or someting like that? I mean there has to be a reason why the phone itself wont let you move the app.
