Back up/Restore - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

What is everyone using to back up and restore apps and app data? Ive used Titanium in the past but always had some type of issue when restoring data so I stopped restoring altogether and I have been reinstalling all my apps through the Playstore. I also have Rom Tool Box installed but have not tried it to restore yet.
Is there an app out there that works great restoring apps and data and if so which one. Thanks

Have you used it more than once? Also did you restore data without any problems?

Titanium, one of the 1st apps I bought when I got my evo 4G/1st smartphone. I use the scheduled backup function everyday at 4.

Ever since I bought N3, TiB never worked for me, at least scheduled backup didn't. It takes less then 10 seconds for it finish backing up apps with new data, and when I sort by new backups, I see most apps where not backed up at all.
I've sent several emails to developers, but it's like sending it to a black hole, no responses.
It's a shame really, as TiB used to be the best.
Hellium is a good alternative too, especially if you are planning not doing root for a while, but it fails to backup/restore a lot too.

My back up pro. Works great. Best if use the donate version
TWEAKED 2.0 ELEMENT V3.0 NOTE 3

Thanks guys gonna try MBUP tonight and see how it does. I never had any luck restoring data.
Has anyone restored their app and data from 4.3 to KK yet? If so was it ok or did you have to do anything different?
Reason I ask is because going from 4.1.2 to 4.3 I and many or all others I should say had an issue woth TIBU and the TIBU restore app was created.

The playstore doesn't list "My Apps" anymore, how do you restore the apps now if you don't remember them?

Did you back them up with anything? Also why isnt the playstore showing your apps thats strange unless yoir not signed in to your Google account. It has to be that. Check in playstore if your signed in. When your there slide your finger from left of screen to right and you'll see the menu. On top it should have your email sign in.

it didn't work for me because once i restored my apps, none of them were showing up in market's my apps for updating. i'm coming from the og droid, where my apps were saved with my gmail account then automatically restored. i don't know if that was something added in the roms or if i'm missing a setting, but it's no fun.
You try launching Titanium, then going to Options, Market Tools, Market Doctor? It scans your apps and re-links them to the market.
problem i have with it is everytime i reboot it loses root and have to clear data and ropen to get it to work?
I use the pro version, worked fine for me

When it quits on me I open it go home and kill it in task manager, go back and it works again.

How to enable google restore?

Usually when I flash a new rom google automatically restores all my apps. Somehow when I installed the latest rom google did not automatically restored my apps so I had to manually install them one by one. When the phone booted up from the first time after flashing, I am pretty sure I check marked the google backup and resotre, but somehow it did not happen.
Anyway is there a way to enforce google restore without having to cleanup everything and start from scratch again?
anybody?
Google restore is a mystery. Sometimes it works sometimes not so much. I don't know if anyone has ever explored why
Pay the few bucks for Titanium Backup. You will be glad you did.

[Q] Going from touchwiz 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 Questions?????

Hello,
I am sort of an noob the came from years of using an iphone. I've had my note 2 for a few months now. I am on 4.1.2. When i installed the 4.2.2 custom rom, I know Spen doesn't work nor AT&T visual voicemail which is fine. But one thing i couldn't live without was the SIRI-like function to talk to text. Is that an option on 4.2.2 because i could't find it anywhere? I just restored it back to 4.1.2. Does anyone how to get all those features back or whether that is even possible. I appreciate any legit info.
What app were you using on 4.1.2 to do talk to text?

Ok then you are going to have to stay on TW based roms to keep S-Voice. But know that you are the first person i have met to say that S-Voice is better than google now

Not true..
I am using svoice now on root box 4.2.2
The way I get it to work is I have it backed up in Titanium Backup
After I restore my apps, I restore S-voice by itself, restoring the APP ONLY..
Start it up, it asks you to accept/confirm, then works just like it does in Touch Wiz..
YMMV, but I have done that a dozen times recently, and it works every time...

I thought it authenticated through Samsungs servers but i guess im wrong. Good to know
yeah, maybe I am just lucky, but as long I use this backup of it, and don't restore data to it, it works fine on all of the AOSP roms that have been out since I got the phone a couple months ago..

aosp and wiping

Has anyone else noticed that when flashing from a stock ROM to aosp, the wallapaper previously used with a different aosp ROM is remembered and used? I always wipe data cache delvik and system. Somehow my phone always remembers what wallpaper I had previously. Maybe this is just minor but is it possible that it isn't wiping everything? Idk, maybe there's a simple reason but I was just wondering. Thanks
Is this before or after restoring apps that you notice this. My wifes phone doesnt do this.

Its before installing anything other than gapps. Maybe gapps is doing it somehow
Maybe you check the settings when you're logging in to your gmail account where it ask you restore all data and apps from previous phone. Don't remember the phrase but something like that if you do check it then it will restore the wallpaper

Removing AT&T a dress book with titanium backup

I've given up trying to disable this stupid thing. I rooted my phone, if I use titanium back up to uninstall all at&t apps including this annoying phone book, will it cause any issues to the phone?
It will probably balk at any future updates but little else that I can see.

I heard that the phone apk will stop working if you remove the address book. The app will stop working for the phone. Did anyone remove the address book completely?
Just back it up and remove. If it doesnt work right just restore.
I have done it before on LG Optimus 3d from at&t. Stupid at&t adress book is link into the contacs apk. So after i delete the adress book. I was not able to access the stock contac app. So i was using go contacs ex.
So this time i did not bother to remove it. Leason learn. But i know how anoying it is.

I didn't backup mine after I removed it and not my VVM doesn't work. Must be tied in together. Everything else does.
I just froze it using ROM toolbox and it worked perfectly.
