Backup applications with Google?

[bjones72751]

Ok, my brother just got a thunderbolt, and under his accounts and sync setting he has the option to backup his apps with his Google account. Is this something that can we can get, or is it not possible? I've used titanium backup, but I don't like that you can't get them back on the market to update them without buying the full version, as I don't have the money to BUY hardly anything.

Isn't the TB pro version the only one that restored the apps onto the market?

If your rom supports it, then yes. You'll be given the option to backup your files to google when you first add your account to the phone. If you use ath3nos's Unofficial CM7, there is a check box you can select in the privacy menu after you add the account to enable google's back up feature. I assume that after your account has been backed up that when you add your account to another phone with the same rom, google will ask you if you want to restore your apps. I haven't personally used it but I've seen the options.

I tried that but it didn't work for me. I think that option is just an useless tease. lol
