Hi, thanks for reporting :) Could you send me a logcat with the error you get when you try restoring that apk? Can you install the apk manually from your backed-up files?

Hello Oab restores app with no errors I can install backuped apk manually too But this app doesn't start, I get an error when try to open it. When I install this app from play store, /data/app/app folder contains splitting apks When I restore it using titanium or oab these files does not exists See screenshot. screenshot_root_explorer_20190207-235501 screenshot_root_explorer_20190207-235844

Same problem with the weather wpp "WetterOnline - Unwetterwarnungen": https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.wetteronline.wetterapp App can restored but without app data. App crashed at start after restore. App developer use apk split.

Hm, yesterday i have a secound run. I installed the app via the google play store, startet the app once time and close the app. Over the "last/recent startet apps" button in android also kill the app. So the app is no more running. After that i restore only data of the app with oandbackup. After restoring the app data i can start the app normal und my data is also shown. All looks right. So thats my way to restore my WetterOnline app.

I have the same issue and found out it happens to all apps that are distributed as .xapk. My observation is that many Play Store apps started rolling out as .xapk in October 2019. Those apps are not backed up completely. After restoring such an incomplete app and updating it via Play Store it will work again. Here is an example of the transotion to .xapk:

Also note the difference in installed and backup size of an app in both variants (.apk and .xapk).

Also had this problems with few apps when migrating from 9.0 rom to 10.0

Few of my apps where not getting installed via oandbackup , installing the apk inside the oandbackup folder of the app via package installer did not work.

Data backup seems to be o.k , when installed the app from google play , all went fine.

So it seems the problem is indeed on the backup part , not the restore one.
