Hi, I have the stock ROM in my phone I am considering installing Cyanogenmod. My question is how should I uninstall and then install Naver Line in the new ROM. I don't know if it is enough to uninstall the app without deleting my account and then register in Line with my email in the new ROM. The program help says that if you do it wrong you may appear with two accounts to your friends. I have heard that installing a backup with Titanium Backup may cause problems.
Many thanks for your answers!

You do not need to uninstall first. You should have an email account associated with the Line Naver. It will be under settings/accounts/email account registration.
You just reactivate your Line account on your new rom. You will lose your chat history. Titanium Backup does not work with Line Naver. I have tried multiple times. It only makes a difference if you want to backup and restore your chat history, which cannot be done. Otherwise just flash away.

I passed from Samsung ROM to CM10.1 yesterday, and restoring Line with Titanium Backup causes Line to Force Close.
BUT I tried letting TB restore the old device ID (gives you message when you run it for the first time on a new ROM), and after that Line worked again, restoring all the settings, Chat history, photos, etc... seems it binds itself to the Android Device ID.
My titanium backup never ask me to restore device id, and I flash different roms every other day.

How did you restore the old device ID? I only see restore app/date in backup, and I don't see anything in the Special menu either...
Nevermind, I found it. Need to backup Settings Storage.apk, then if you flash a new ROM, go to Titanium Backup menu, and choose the Manage Android ID to restore the ID on the new ROM...
Interesting...
New version of Line Naver "supposedly" have the restore chat history function. From what I can tell you have to backup each chat session individually. I'll install a new rom later and see if the restore option really works.

Just installed it as well and saw the import button. Backing up my chats and installing a new rom to see if it works as well. Hmmm
It's too bad this version of Line loses the option of "choosing a photo from app". Now when you want to add photo, it brings you straight to their own photo album app. Before I can choose my emoticons photo app, but no longer.

Could be any number of things honestly. My suggestion is to sync all of your contacts and info to google servers, then when you update/change roms you can sign in and all of your apps will redownload and your contacts will show up. This prevents the compatibility issues with restoring data from titanium backup. Honestly the only use I have for titanium is to freeze/remove bloatware and the like.

Use SMS Backup+ for messages and call log. You have to change the options for call log to be included. It won't backup MMS so just save those images. Convert your contacts to Google contacts instead of Phone Contacts.
I just updated to gingerbread. Im liking it.
Im trying to add my events from my prior calender to my new one. I tried restoring the data and app and then the data and nothing appears. This also goes for my contact list. What a pain. Let me know what im doing wrong.
The wallpaper is such a headache to get right. Is there anyway i dont have to use that green box so the image isnt distorted?
Thank you

Your contacts aren't saved to your google account? Isn't calendar saved to google too?
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
Agree with Josh.
Your contacts and calendar should be synced through Google. That should be the easiest thing when switching ROM's.
And I don't personally like Titanium, On a fresh ROM install I rather let it re-download the apps for a fresh install. Time consuming, but worth it.
nothing comes back the gmail account is checked under calendars.
I'm new to this, but I'm on my third rom. I had contacts uploaded via Backup Assistant and apps and data through Titanium Pro. I know this is a stupid question, but did you actually go into Titanium. backup/restore, and click run?

yea it says it was completed. then nothing is changed after.
With updates of ROMs being released so quickly, and not wanting to update rather than flash the full ROM, I'm going to start backing up using Titanium Backup.
I am quite happy to backup absolutely everything, but am cautious about restoring things like system settings. Ideally what I would like is to be able to restore all the apps that I had before, their data, and possibly the layout of my homescreens.
How would I do this?
Is there anything I should probably not restore that could mess things up?
Thanks a lot for any replies.
You can backup all apps and data and then restore them later, without worrying about side-effects. This backup will include your launcher and therefore screen layouts, but will not include widgets. You'll need to add them again manually after you restore (it's a permission thing - nothing other that your is allowed to put widgets on your home screens).
System settings is a different story. If you're going from one ROM to another, or changing FW, there could be conflicts and it could cause problems. I tend to always have a backup and only restore system settings if I need to factory reset for some reason.
If you haven't already, I'd strongly recommend paying for the pro version, as it can become very boring having to click a couple of buttons for every app you want to restore. The pro version does all apps without the need for interaction.
The easiest way is this: go into titanium backup and press the menu bitten on your phone. Then press batch. Then look for something that says backup all user apps. Click the bitten next to that that says run. Then check 'backup user apps + data' and then uncheck any apps you don't want backed up, and then click run on the bottom. This will backup all your downloaded apps and data, like saved games, etc. You can also do the same things for system apps, but I can't guarantee that they will all work. Hope this helps

If you click batch all your apps are selected so you can backup all your apps with 1 clicks, even with the unpaid version. However with the paid version you can set up scheduled backups so it will backup automatically every week, or whenever you set it to

Thanks XD) but I'm talking more about the restore aspect.
@johncmolyneux
Thanks for your help. So I'm thinking the process will be along the lines of:
backup/restore > batch > backup all user apps
then
batch > restore missing apps with data > selecting app+ data
I will almost certainly buy the pro version of this app, as I'll be using it a lot.
One thing I am particularly anal about is restoring my vast collection of texts going back about 3 years - will restoring the GoSMS app and its data include all these. Probably obvious but I thought I'd ask just to make sure.
Also, I keep getting a message saying that I should check usb debugging as it might cause problems. What's that all about?
Thanks again.

That's the process mate - you've got it.
Titanium Backup requires that you have USB debugging enabled, which you get to via Settings, Applications, Development.
As for backing up and restoring text messages, I simply could not recommend any higher an application called SMS Backup+ (free in the Market). It creates a folder in your Gmail account and automatically uploads all text messages to that folder. You can do a restore whenever you like. It's seamless and works perfectly. If you want to keep SMS then look no further! I've gone over easily 30 ROM flashes with it, and now a new phone, and have never lost a single message.
It also means, of course, that you can access you SMS from any browser, which is nice (Can't send from gmail though.)

Ok, last question. Can I just have usb debugging enabled at the time that I backup and at the time that I restore. I prefer to not have it checked generally - lots of annoying pop up messages on my PC at work etc...

Ok so one last question. I understand that Titanium Backup will save the data for my third party launcher, so will preserver all the homescreen arrangments. But if I use TouchWiz, would that count as a system and therefore not preserved if I only backed up and restored user apps and data?
Cheers.

You might be able to backup and restore the data for touchwizz, not tried.
As far as system data, if the item is green in titanium is ok to restore, if its red, beware.
AFAIK, TouchWiz is just another launcher, so you should be okay to restore, but pay attention to the item colour, as mentioned by veyka.
Ok thanks a lot. Man of many questions at the moment, quite new to Android.
So last one...
When I set up the OS from scratch after a flash, when I get the option to either backup/restore to my Google account, what actually gets backed up then?
Cheers.

I'm not sure about this one as I've seen different things happen. Sometimes, I've had apps installed again after a new ROM flash, but other times that hasn't happened. I've also had inconsistent results with restoring wifi settings. The only thing I generally rely on Google to store is my contacts. Other than that, I use Titanium for everything, just to be sure.

Hi
I flashed the ParanoidAndroid 2.55cm (4.1.2):
I have Apex launcher pro and Titanium Backup ★ root pro.I made a TB backup in cm9 . I restored all of apps and data and it went well on ParanoidAndroid 2.55cm (4.1.2):. But
I would like to know how to restore all the widgets on ParanoidAndroid 2.55cm with Apex launcher pro home screens ?
Hi everyone!
Is there a way to make Whatsapp usable on our device? It gives me an error saying "not supported on tablets".
I already googled a bit but found no workaround, anyone got a tip for me?
regards
banane
There may be a workaround, but I think Whatsapp requires a phone number, therefore only works on phones.
I have been able to get this to work but I cant add any more
contacts. The contact list here just wont update my google contacts.
I had a galaxy tab. So I just used titanium back up. Made a back up copy
of whatsapp and put it in the sd card. Moved the sd card and used titanium
back up to restore whatsapp. It worked but I cant add any new contacts.
nice, thank you. I´ll give that a try!
i already tried to copy the databases from my phone so it wouldn´t check for the device type but that didn´t work :/
I´ll report back
Thank you BryanSo it worked!
Maybe its worth noting that one should delete the whatsapp folder on the sdcard and reboot the device after uninstalling whatsapp (if you tried before like me).
have you been able to update your contacts?
unfortunately not
Ah well same problem I guess. I least its working.
How do you backup and restore the app? I tried with titanium backup but when it was restoring on the noon it started but then appeared to hang. Any suggestions, chaps?

Hmm i couldnt get it to work via installing any .apk, i would upload you my titanium backup but then you would only have my contacts and that would not be that good :/
I tried several methods to get it to work without backing it up and restoring it from an other android device but none of them worked.
Maybe one could try to edit the contacts database (data/data/com.whatsapp/databases/wa_contacts.db) via commandline. Otherwise you would need an Android device that has your contacts to backup from.
I´m on holiday at the moment so you´d have to try it yourself or wait until thursday next week.

So, can someone post the apk or backup from titanium, I don't know, is there ay way to get this to work for the community?
I have no idea how to make it for community. Because during activation you need your phone number to be there. What i did for my wife NT is
- on SGT with simA ti backup my whatsapp, then move it somewhere else.
- uninstall whatsapp on SGT (just to deregister)
- change to simB, reinstall whatsapp, and activate whatsapp with simB
- tibackup, copy app+data to NT
- restore in NT
- cleanup SGT and put back simA along with its whatsapp app+data
And now i can whatsapp SGT-NT with my wife using my and her own number.
Drawback is my whatsapp contact get carried along to my wife's, hence i said i cant make a community shared apk.
but as long as she can still populate her own whatsapp contact it doesnt matter.
She uses go contacts btw.
LINE is applicable in the same manner.
If you want easier, use VIBER. Activation by sms doesnt need to be in same device.
Too bad mic audio routing needs to be fixed first, otherwise i can call my wife for free on VIBER.
. . . i use xda app for gtab. . .
I I was wondering if there are any programs where I could do GREAT backups.
Mainly 1 for phonebook, so that I can safely copy all my contacts and modify them from the computer. I have like 300 numbers but want to erase 200 of them while still having them on computer if I need them. I can't find a reliable app to do this so am wondering if anyone has any experiences in it.
The 2nd backup I'm looking for is an APP one. It doesn't hve to necessarily backup the apps, but at least be able to queue all of them I want RE-installed and download them all from the google play store or something. I want to get into flashing ROMS, but I have like 7 pages of apps already that I don't want to lose, as I'm still sorting through trying to find the ones that work best for me so I can remove all the extras.
First off, I think these could've been answered by searching, so please do that in the future.
If your contacts are stored as Google contacts (as they should be), you can edit them from GMail. On the top left corner of the page, there is a menu that says "GMail." Click it and select "Contacts." I've found this to be the easiest way. It'll also always backup your contacts, and you can restore old versions of your contact list if you need to do so. (Since you talk about wanting to delete them from the phone, but keep a record of them, if you delete them from GMail and remember the date when you had them all in there, you can always restore it back to that date and they'll all be back.)
Also, from the People app, you can go to Menu -> Manage Contacts, and export the data.
Regarding backing up apps, this is the main reason I don't think you've done any research at all. There's a very-well-talked-about app called Titanium Backup that will backup and restore every app on your phone. You have to buy the key for it to restore all of them without your involvement--the free version requires you to give permissions to install each app.
First off, I did search prior to asking the question and could not find what I was looking for. There is no need to be rude, as searching was obviously the first step anyone would or at least SHOULD take before asking such a question.
As for your replies, I have chosen sync in my contacts, but they will not show up in Google for some reason. I've tried tons of ways, and it shows like it is syncing, but when I check... nothing there. I don't know if something is wrong in my settings or what, but I've tried many times... it just won't work for me for some reason. Maybe it's because I have 6 google accounts attached to phone, and even though I'm only syncing 1, it is mixing them up or something.
And I already have Titanium Backup, it keeps crashing on my phone for some reason, which is why I was looking for an alternative. I have over 300 apps on my phone right now. I know that's horrid, but I downloaded a ton of them for the same things so I can test them and find the ones I liked best, in which I plan to mark them all, re-flash the phone with whatever ROM (later once full rooting with S-off and everything has been tested more thoroughly), and only install those apps I liked, which should bring it down to maybe 100 apps or so.
I do understand I might SEEM like I didn't search, but trust me... I did.
Anyways, I thank you for your response (both the neg and the pos), and your time was greatly appreciated. I am about to toy with my settings and see if something is blocking the sync or something. I didn't know you could export from the people app though, so thanks for that especially.
UPDATE:
Man, thanks! That export feature is NICE! going to see how easy it is to modify it shortly, hopefully it's readable in Excel.
Regarding Titanium Backup, you are rooted and have granted Titanium Backup superuser permissions, correct?
Yes, I used that 1 click .bat file (from the first method that was shown). I think my superuser app was corrupt, so I re-downloaded it and it's working fine now. Thank you.

I ran into an issue with TB when I tried restoring from my OG EVO. I am rooted in the EVOLTE but not running a custom ROM. the ROM I was running was deodexed. Stock EVOLTE is not so I was unsuccessful in my restore. I bought mybackup pro and WA able to restore SMS and .MMS this way. Not sure I'd you are having the same issues or not though

I agree, all contacts should be on google...then theres no worry about backups (ive had 3 android phones and a tablet and they all auto sync the contacts instantly).
Editing them on the computer is a breeze, the duplicate find/merge feature is simple and works very well.
What exactly are you all doing to make them sync though?
I went to Accounts & Sync
> selected the one GMAIL that I want the numbers synced to and hit sync now, but it doesn't do anything.
