Yeah, when they have to restore an application of the type apks and see that the process never ends, the face will be changed. :lol: :lol:


An yet I used TB to move around 200 apps to my new phone and everything went smoothly. Kinda ruins your tale, doesn't it? :lol:

Same here. Working mostly fine on Galaxy S20 Android 12. But one should restore Apps and their datas in two steps not all at once.
And if there are still issues you can install App manually and only use TB for restoring data. So far there is still no other App as good as TB even though it has been deprecated.
Quite high quality App I would say, as there are rarely Apps made for Android 9 or earlier still working.
And as root based Apps development got pretty much stucked, there is no real alternative to it.

It may be that you do not have any application of the type "apks", that's why you have no problem. As I said before, when I wanted to restore an application of the apks type the process never ended, when I saw that problem I said "goodbye titanium backup" :lol:

For a few years I use Swift Backup (it is paid and can not be hacked) and I have no problem.

As written before: if you have trouble, than just use it for data backup/restore. Install the Apps the regular way, than everything should be fine.
I dislike dependency on Google Drive. Tested Swift Backup, 3C and some other Root Backup Apps a while ago, but wasn't very satisfied with it. However I will keep it in mind for the time TB will stop working at all.


Also for APKs: This is the new way of installing to reduce needed storage and maybe loading time. Old APK files had every Architecture (ARM v6, v7a, v8,...) and DPI included and installed everything on your phone as such. Now in new APKs the App is separated from most libraries. APKs are old APK slimmed down with every library file separately in it. This makes the "APKS" file itself bigger, but if you install it, it will only install the libraries necessary for your device nothing else. You won't have any ".apks" file installed only typical ".apk". You could say apks are only Installer files.

If you got problems with such files the cause must be different. If you transferred to another device, maybe the correct library files where missing, because the old device used others?
How can Swift Backup avoid it? I don't know, but if using online, my guess would be that it installs Apps the regular way and only restores your data afterwards, so same as I suggest for TB but automatically not manual.

It might be. I've thought about it but since there is no easy way of knowing if an app uses a split apk or not there's not much I can do to find out. It's kinda strange though since, as I said, I have a lot of apps on my phone and haven't had a problem with any of them.
A couple of years ago I looked for alternatives because I didn't expect it to keep working for so long but as long as it does I'll stick to it.

Good question. I also don't see a way around this. If it's an app with a play store connection it could do what you said but that would mean installing whatever version is on the play store and not what you have backed up. If it's a sideloaded app, there isn't much that can be done.

I have the paid version and it is also an old version, I do not need a pirated version if I already have the official one.

I don't care about anything you say, all I'm going to do is report that pirate apk to its creator on Telegram.

I can make a backup but can't restore apk. They don't start after restore.
Only official trial version from Play Store can restore it.

For Those Who Face Force Crash/Close, Try This :
1. Install a root file system app (Root Explorer), navigate to and delete the following folder:
/data/data/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup

2. Uninstall and re-install Titanium Backup

3. Vuala, Titanium Backup up and running again
