How is this app different from Titanium backup?

This app is a ROM migration tool. It not only backs up app and data, but also contacts, SMS, call logs etc. Moreover, the restoration process also involves flashing via TWRP. Titanium backup is an excellent app. Migrate just views the restoration process differently.

In recent times however,

Migrate Flasher

app can be used to flash a zip even if you dont have a compatible TWRP recovery. Everything is almost the same other than just the flashing part, which is done from the Flasher app.

Do I need to download the Migrate app to restore the apps?

No. Only your ROM needs to be rooted. The restoration process is handled by a helper app, which deletes itself after restoring everything.

Is it necessary to use Magisk?

The app works best with Magisk. Other options like Lineage OS su addon causes weird errors like incomplete file copy, etc.

All apps are restored from recovery?

No. That is not possible. Because Recovery is a completely different environment from Android. Think of it as installing a Windows game from a Linux distro. Instead from recovery, an app is injected into system which takes up the restore process when android boots up. Most things are automated, so you need not worry much.

A quick word on SD card support...

SD card support in v2.0 requires a Magisk module "ExSDCard Access Enabler", made by developer Romain. According to him, this module requires FUSE support on ROMs. FUSE is supported on some ROMs as a legacy feature as Android has moved away from FUSE to SDCARDFS. As such, the current implementation may or may not work based on your device and ROM.

If it does not work for you, please wait until either the module developer rewrites the module :p or I find a different implementation :) Thanks for your patience.

From version 5.0+ (Not yet released, available on

GitHub

)

Users will be able to natively store backups on SD Cards, especially on Android 11+.

For lower Android versions, Storage Access Framework is used (along with root access) to store backups on SD Cards as well as on USB-OTG.

Some plaguing bugs on some devices :(

"dumpsys not found"

(Severity: mild. Only permissions are not backed up)

Mainly in ASUS devices. Probable solution is to not use dumpsys at all.

Probably fixed in v1.2

"tar: can't execute 'gzip': Permission denied"

(Severity: severe. Do not restore this backup)

I still have no idea why this is happening. Probable solution is use something other than tar.gz

Data files cannot be moved during restore. "Operation not permitted"

(Severity: severe)

No idea yet. Prominent in Google Pixel devices and some Xiaomi devices

Probably partially or completely fixed in v1.2

Error 7 (or 6) in TWRP

(Severity: severe)

This issue which was supposedly fixed in v1.1.1 seems to occur again on few devices

Since I cannot reproduce the issue and the number of error reports are pretty small, please send the

recovery.log

from TWRP:

- Goto Advanced -> Terminal in TWRP

OR

open an adb shell inside TWRP

- Type the following and press enter: cp /tmp/recovery.log /sdcard/

- Reboot and upload the

recovery.log

file (from internal sd card) here.

Stuck at calculating size.

(Severity: severe)

This is being reported multiple times. I am still unable to reproduce the issue on my device.

That being said, I will be adding new controls to skip size checking of its stuck on any device, in the next release. Also, I will add more fine logging to see what is actually happening behind the scenes, which cannot be detected by a logcat.

Probably fixed in v2.0

Pocophone TWRP recovery has issues

(Severity: severe)

I need someone to do the following and then upload the file:

/sdcard/test_log.log

- TWRP main menu -> Mount -> Data and System should be mounted

- TWRP main menu -> Advanced -> Terminal

OR

open an adb shell inside TWRP

- Type the following commands:

getprop > /sdcard/test_log.log

echo " " >> /sdcard/test_log.log

df /data >> /sdcard/test_log.log

echo " " >> /sdcard/test_log.log

df -k /data >> /sdcard/test_log.log

echo " " >> /sdcard/test_log.log

df -h /data >> /sdcard/test_log.log

echo " " >> /sdcard/test_log.log

df /system >> /sdcard/test_log.log

The following should work as an alternative:

"Segmentation fault"

(Severity: unknown)

Mainly in Xiaomi devices. I cannot reproduce it. Neither do I know how much this affects the backup. Please restore a backup and tell me if it works.
[Android Apps and Games] RevolverRz:
Useful :)
[Android Apps and Games] candiesdoodle:
Quite promising

So what does the helper app really do? Move the apps and data from /data/balti.migrate to their respective directories? How does that work in a booted up ROM?
[Android Apps and Games] SayantanRC:
The helper app installs the apks using package manager and then unpacks the data of the respective apps in /data/data. Finally it restores all the apps runtime permissions.
[Android Apps and Games] ceelos218:
I got this issue
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
Wifi?
[Android Apps and Games] SayantanRC:
Please tell how to reproduce the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] SayantanRC:
Maybe added in future
[Android Apps and Games] ceelos218:
I just clicked next.. nothing else I selected all apps to backup then next page ticked boxes to back up.. click ready and I got that error and It didn't back up anything.
[Android Apps and Games] m0d:
Does it handle folder permissions when there are changes in app uid for data restore

when pm installs app, app uid can be different than before, so there might be folder permission discrepencies?

I.E.

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" != "" ];
then
#The folders in /data/data each have a different owner. The next line gets the owner and the strips the whitespace

appusername=$(stat -c "%U" /data/data/$1 | xargs)
#The next line constructs the chown command to repair the permissions for all the files in the target folder
fixperm="chown -R $appusername:$appusername /data/data/$1/*"
#Display the command to the user
echo "$fixperm"
#Uncomment the next line if you would like the script to fix the permission
eval $fixperm
else echo "Missing target folder parameter"
fi
[Android Apps and Games] SayantanRC:
It takes care of the new uid for the app. No problem with that.
[Android Apps and Games] SayantanRC:
This is weird. Please open the green circle button on top left in the first screen of the app -> Contact by email and send the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] joeferyyd:
I'm getting this error
[Android Apps and Games] Krippe8th:
Sorry for inconvenience.

Same here, nothing happen. But you check >sdcard/migrate and the files are there.

Just tried this. Backup speed is super fast backed up 75 apps in 3 minutes. Interface is also very nice.

Please include a pro version or in app purchase to removed ads.
[Android Apps and Games] shadowstep:
Do you have an idea if Titanium Backup and/or Swift Backup take care of app uid changes during data restore to avoid folder permission discrepancies?

I replaced my mi5's battery with one of the nohon brand. Now I can get to 5 hours of sot. Through amps I checked if the quick charge worked, I noticed a 2400 mAh charge current, with the old original battery I got to almost 3000. Use lineage 15.1, every now and then update to the latest firmware dev. Any of you who has a nohon battery can tell me what battery is being charged through the Ampere app? thank you

I need a replacement usb cable for a nexus 5. I seem to remember that not all micro usb cables are the same and some don't work transmitting data to/from a pc. What should I look for in choosing a cable?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Some cables that come with chargers and/or Qi pads don't transmit data. I Would just look for a reliable brand (Anker, Aukey, Amason Basics) that specifically state that they transmit power and data.

Hey guys, as the title say, im searching a special widget for the weather on home screen. It looks similar to the Standart samsung weather widget, but i guess this is not a simple theme. I think it is a seperate app or whatever..maybe launcher Design for this.

Maybe someome can help me to find this.

You can See what i mean on the attached Screenshot on the right side. Or on the right Device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] martin132014:
Why don't you try Xwidget on playstore. It got tons of widget from other launchers into one app. Maybe what you want is in there.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bjballar41:
Its been awhile since I have been on here or even really messed with a phone. I currently have a Pixel XL and its time to upgrade. Ive been tossing around the ideas of either the Note 9 or the XL 3. I love the camera of the og pixel and the pure android on it. I know the camera is as good on the note 9 but is there a way to do pure android either by rom or something else? The other scenario I may do is hold out for the galaxy s10 which is a few months away. Thanks for any input.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
No there's no "pure Android" for the Note 9 series. You won't be able to bootloader unlock or root (unless you get the international Exynos version, but then you lose so many great Samsung features). I don't believe there's any vanilla Android ROMs for the Exynos version either.

You could hold out for the S10, but why? There's ALWAYS another flagship device right around the corner. And it likely won't be that much of an upgrade over the Note 9. I could be wrong though. I love the S-Pen too much to care.

I was a Nexus/Pixel fanboy too. I had three OG Pixel XL, then decided to try the Galaxy S8+ and loved it. Samsung Pay, Samsung Pass. Great build quality and that beautiful screen. Then I upgraded to a Note 8 and fell in love with the S-Pen.

I bought a Pixel 2XL to try out Android Pie and stock Android again, and I enjoyed it for about a week, and I began wishing it were more like my Note. So I sold it and got a Note 9 instead. Couldn't be happier.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] TonyGzl92:
Well first of all you have to ask yourself, are you going to use the spen? Because if you do, end of conversation, I myself changed my note 8 for the s9 plus because I thought that I wouldn't miss the spen, oh boy was I wrong. The spen is that feature that you think you are not going to use a lot, but the truth is, when you have it, you use it. Right now I have the note 9 and I guess I'll stay with it at least untill note 10 or further.

As for the stock rom I don't think so. Right now I'm using the Rootless pixel launcher and it's been good so far. Aesthetic of stock but with the perks of Samsung experience
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bjballar41:
I use to always have Samsung phone the last being note 5 then I went to the pixel XL. It's been a great phone with zero complaints till recently the battery hasn't been the best. I always hated the bloatware u get on Samsung phones and that's another worry. Does anyone have a Verizon version? Can you get rid of them like the pixel does?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] GuestK00143:
I have a Verizon one and flashed the U1 firmware. That will give you the cleanest install. You can uninstall nearly all the bloat and disable the rest with a package disabler or AdHell3. It won't be pure android but Samsung has come a long way since the Note 5. I had the Pixel 2 XL for about a week and ran back to my old Note8. There is no comparison to the build quality and the cameras both have their good and bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bjballar41:
I haven't flashed or anything in probably 6 years lol so I wouldn't even know where to start on that stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
I just went from pixel 2 xl to note 9. I had all Nexus and pixel phones in past. This is my first Samsung phone. And I must say I love it. The hardware is just gorgeous. The display is so damn nice too.

This is the first phone I haven't rooted. So I debloated almost all Samsung apps through adb. Disabled all the Samsung cloud storage and bixpy. I love the note 9 now. It's so fast. Has a ton of extra features that the pixel 3 xl does not have.

Only downside is camera. Pixel 2xl camera was so good and simple. Back camera on note is real good sometimes. Front camera is trash.

Samsung gave me $400 off instant trade in of pixel 2xl so I cancelled my pixel 3 xl order (Google would only give $325 wtf). Glad I did. Played with the 3 xl in Verizon and I made the right choice going 9

Can't wait for the note 10. There some sweet hardware rumors going around with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] GuestK00143:
I've posted this a few times already in the general section but go here for the firmware but the download is slow if you don't have a premium account. Pick your carrier from the list and the next page is the download page. On there is a great set of instructions to follow.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bjballar41:
I assume just download straight to your phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] GuestK00143:
No a windows PC. Download Odin as per the instructions and the firmware file to your PC. Hopefully you don't use Linux or Mac because I'm not sure if those are supported anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bjballar41:
Na I use PC. If I get it I'll check it out. Sunday will be my decision on the best deal between the two. They are both just so close.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Gabe2014:
N9
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] GuestK00143:
Yup, I agree. I've checked the Pixel 3 XL in the store, watched lots of review videos and check the forums regularly. The only thing I see better is the camera even there it isn't by much. Definitely not worth ditching the Note 9 for.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Gabe2014:
I was considering get the OP 6T but the N9 is better on everything, my wife has the 6t is a good Phone but not like the N9 so just I ordered a N9 Las Friday is on my way I'm still have the N8 ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
Yeah I bought the n9 two weeks ago. Almost bought the 6t since I can finally get one on Verizon. But the n9 literally does everything and does everything very well. I need the LED notification light and 6t got rid of it...my next phone will prob be the N10
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] herandy:
I would notch go with the Pixel, they don't even have a headphone jack anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] androidkid27:
I had the one plus 6t for two days and exchanged it for the note 9. Yeah it's almost stock Android and yes it's fast but when you are so use to having everything plus the kitchen sink it's super hard to just deal with the basics. The phone's battery is better the camera is better the screen is better the speakers is better the vibration motor is better and overall the hardware is just way better than the 6t. Yes it's more money but it's definitely worth it, and as far as speed the note 9 is lightening fast. The main difference when it does come to speed is maybe load up times when it comes to games but honestly nothing that's going to stick out unless you have the phone's side by side. Also the 6t better pretty hot when using some basic apps which is weird and the fingerprint scanner can is alot of work. Note 9 all the way
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
Nice good to hear and glad I decided against it and stayed with my n9. I can't wait for pie on the n9. Hopefully it's soon. The gesture nav looks so much better than pixel nav. I may actually use it

If the note 9 could just get a decent Google camera port it be perfect.

Well good choice guys. Had a S9 plus 256g and was due a upgrade so oreded the new huawei mate 20 pro and missed Samsung experience as soon the phone was on. Funny is the one thing lots of people don't like its the one I love. So got the note 9 512gb. Ups
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
I prefer my Mate 20 Pro as it is faster and battery life is crazy good
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] brunotuga:
Well faster didn't feel to me a few closed apps and screen had bleed plus the speaker was weak. The battery normal use as in browse and Facebook didn't use to much music was amazing but playing drained really fast to. Is a really good device just like the Samsung experience way more. Just personal preference but mate 20 is brilliant. Can't go wrong with both
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] centipeda:
I've been trying to root my Pixel 2 over the past few days, but it doesn't seem to hold for some reason. I've tried both flashing a boot.img patched with Magisk, and then a cf-auto-root package, but even after running the flash command/root script, my Pixel boots back up like normal and Root Checker says it isn't rooted.

I think it has something to do with the fact that when I try to select "Download mode" in fastboot, "ERROR: Operation Denied" appears at the bottom of the screen in big yellow letters.

USB debugging is enabled, and I can't find anyone with a similar issue. I don't really know how to proceed here.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] giant22000:
Boot TWRP, flash magisk, profit and done... No need to use fastboot download mode for root.

"fastboot boot TWRP.img" will boot TWRP while maintaining your factory recovery
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] centipeda:
Booted with that command to TWRP, then installed the TWRP zip, then with the local installed copy, installed Magisk...

That worked. Thanks.

How come the Mi A2 is a failure if it's one of the best selling Xiaomi phones on Aliexpress and other markets?

If you don't like it, sell it and buy a new phone, it is that simple, no need to be a martyr.

If you want custom roms, how about you develop it yourself instead of complaning that no one took their free time and knolowedge to make you free roms? I can only speak for myself, as I have no desire in developing for such an arrogant and whiny user base as of the Mi A2's. Or I can develop a Pie AOSP rom and charge for it, how about that?
