since every rom changes the position of certain files and how things work (different reg entries, etc), flashing a backup from another rom type can cause unpredictable, possibly harmful effects.
That's just how it works.

So, no, unless you made the backup with a titan running the same 6.1 rom, you can't use that restore.
Well that answered my primary question, now is it REALLY worth the hassle of re-installing everything again?

EDIT: BTW thanks for the quick and helpful response.
