I don't know if a Nandroid backup is what you would do for a Droid 2, I'm new here, coming from an Eris.
I wanna backup all of my stuff so that if I flash a ROM and something goes wrong, or if I deodex my phone, I can just revert to a backup.
Thanks!
Yes. If you install Droid 2 Bootstrap, and boot into the clockworkmod recovery, you can make a backup that you can use if you mess up your phone
Know of a guide I can look off of to install the Droid 2 Bootstrap?

You can buy the one off the market or google the free version. The free version is on Koush's blog.

dnt know.. i been waiting. but i guess it takes awhile to develop a rom
its Gingerbread tho....what can possibly be modified? i guess if we can get HTC SENSE UI that would be awesome!!
I think it's more possible to get TouchWIZ (Samsung's UI) than the HTC Sence...
cause Nexus S is very similar to Galaxy S...
I also like a lot the HTC Sence and it would be awesome to have it in the Nexus S...
still kinda shocked htc shy'ed away from building the nexus2(s) or w/e they want to call it lol!!
Any of you able to do a backup within Rom Manager? For some reason I can't.

Short answer, yes.
Had to flash it twice to get it to reboot into recovery. Like the orange.

Hmm... odd.
Ill try to do a backup, it'll look like its about to start, than the screen goes black, and the phone just rebooted its self. I wonder what it could be?
I left my bootloader unlocked. Think that may have something to do with it?

I fixed it. I removed the app, than reinstalled. Worked fine, and I was able to do my backup.
flashed from clockwork rom mgr...twice...and each time, when I try to boot into recovery, it hangs on google screen. flashed back to previous version.
thoughts?
is there a link to download the 3.0 version directly? or a fix for this problem? i love clockwork and greatly appreciate the work, but i've always had problems flashing recoveries directly from the app. i always have to utilize fastboot.
anyways, someone have a dl link for 3.0.0...?

No, that would be absolutely horrible. Sense (and the other skins) are a plague on the Android community, and hopefully Honeycomb eliminates all need for them.
When I try to do a backup it rebooted into the recovery but then it says that it can't mount the SD? Any ideas? (Installed through rom manager premium)

Recently I have bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab. I'm quite afraid to screw the OS up. So, I was wondering, is there a way to make a restore point?

Rotobackup is your best option at present, but it is a manual process.

+1.
If you intend to start going into rooting/flashing customs via odin/heimdall.
Guess 1st thing to learn to do is a stock backup.
What about creating a backup using CWM guys? Does Rotobackup do the same thing or better?

In order to make a Nandroid backup, you need to have already flashed a new kernel your Tab to install CWM. Rotobackup is the best way to make a backup prior to doing anything this "drastic".

Dave
Aha... Thanks, Dave.
Thought as much. Guess I was just being daft.
But once flashed with CWM, which would you prefer?
What happens when during flashing CWM, something happen? You wouldnt have any backup/stock rom to fall back on.

For sure RotoBackup at the begining
CWM thereafter.
Attention: By this method, you use an old leak rooted /system, but the others are newest.
And walter79 said he will release a new rooted nandroid backup tomorrow.
This method has worked for my M2.
1.Follow the steps here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169038
2.But replace the fixedsbf with this new one http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8YN9JY8B
The first boot may take a longer time, please wait for at least 5 min.

you will need it to flash the fixedsbf
I mean, I'm still using the 2.2, in order to install the whole thing, I need to flash the 2.3.4 first, but I don't know how to do that.

I think you mistake something. you dont need to flash the 2.3.4, but the fixsbf.
And this will teach you how to use RSD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914071
So your saying that the file I downloaded that has 170mb 7ziped is not what I need to get GB?

Yes. actually the 2.3.4 has been divided into 2parts: nandroid backup and fixed sbf.
So how can I flash the fixed sbf?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914071
When I tried that the flashing process failed.
Before flashing, press power button+camera button+vol up key to enter bootloader mode.
Ok, see if I'm thinking correctly.
First download the nandroid backup from the another post of the unsigned leak and use it with CWM.
Second flash the milestone2 using the fixed sbf you posted
Yes and yes...
thanks, gonna try it now, wish me luck
Hey guys,
I'm looking to throw CM7 on this atrix I just picked up but would like to have an option to return to the stock build. From the instructions I read, is it as simple as making a backup of my current stock ROM from within CWM?
Any help or direction is appreciated. Thanks.

Hmm thanks for pointing that out. So should I want to revert back I would simply install the 2.3.4 zip with my appropriate radio through CWM?

Or you could do the same with 2.3.5.zip (and 2.3.5webtop.zip if you care). This is a rooted stock 2.3.5. Not real diff from 2.3.4 but some better AFAIAC.
One hint. Whatever you choose go ahead and get it on the sdcard. Sbricks happen and it will save you some angst if all you have to do is CWM install zip.

Yes, just backup from CWM then restore if you want to revert back. It's that simple.
Hi,
I got the Motorola XT311, updated to android 2.3.5 and managed to get root access using this great thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19133663
I almost got it bricked uninstalling some default apps using titanium backup but I fixed it up. Before taking more risks I'd like to have a complete backup of the ROM just in case... I installed ROM Manager (clockworkmode) but it seems this model isn't supported yet.
Is there any manual way of doing a full ROM backup and restoring it?I can use shell access using adb.
Thanks in advance for your help!

No idea what this model is, but if it's like the other Droid Pro's, typically you can tell Clockwork mod you're using the Droid 2, Droid 2 Global or possibly even the Droid X. Another option is to use the Droid 2 Bootstrapper thats out there.

Thanks for your help. Apparently the Droid 2 Bootstrapper only works with droid 2 model and I don't want to brick my phone again until I have a ROM backup
No manual way of doing this (adb+shell) or an app working for this model (xt311/xt316)???
Here is the model

Once updated to 2.3.5 I don't know if you need to root again since I got it rooted after updating.

Well, thats not totally correct. We use the Droid 2 Bootstrapper on the Droid Pro XT610. I just don't know what the difference between the XT311 and the XT610 is. Also, not sure it would brick anything, it kinda just tricks it into rebooting into the clockworkmod recovery vs. regular recovery for that next boot. Its not a permanent recovery replacement.
I rooted my phone motorola xt311, and deleted some system applications. My phone wouldn't start , it is stuck at motorola logo.
What can I do?
i rooted it then installed wrong clockworkmod tried backup up then it shut down and never worked again -.- what to do
