I hope it's ok to post this here....
I have come to the fact that using TB is great but can be bad at the same time. It's a useful tool when it comes to backing up your information, but it has it's pros and cons as well. I've learned in the past couple of days that it is not safe or good to restore everything that you have backed up which can cause the phone to crash. Just restoring a few programs has done such lol. But it's all about what program i am restoring. I've learned that certain programs are safe to restore and some others are best to download fresh from google play and start over. I'm pretty sure many or even most of you know this, i just wanted to share my thought's with you guys and wanted to get your opinions to see if anyone has experienced the same things :)

I had that with the game Xelorians when I re-installed it with TB. Apparently the game installs part of itself to a hidden area which TB won't back up, then when you restore you're greeted with the message that you have to re-install.

Way to develop.
 
TB has been very useful to me. I restore app+data for most of apps, but I install others from Play Store then restore data only, so if you have problems with an app just uninstall it, resinstall it from Play Store and restore data only. You can get everything working ok in that way.
