how do I restore a backup of internal cm9 to SD card cm9? ........ and YES i AM mildly retarded........ ok MODERATELY..... so details please. Thanks all.
From what i understand, running an os from SD requires a different boot file, so i don't think you can just make a backup of an emmc image and apply it to the sd. I could be wrong though.
There isn't really a way to just copy and paste but you can just make a titanium backup of your current install and? Hen restore it after you make a CM9 SD card

A little confused here and not that knowledgeable.
Switched my SD cards from a class 2 to a class 6.
I have the paid version of Titanium backup.
Here is what I did:
1. Complete (apps+data) Titanium backup
2. Nandroid + ext backup
3. Copied to computer hd
4. partitioned new card
5. Nandroid restore
(Note: Neither one backed up my photos/vids/music that I can find) But I did copy them to the hd and restored them so no biggie.
So.. should I do a complete Titanium restore now?
The reason I am asking this: All of my apps seemed to be working fine, however, I am not seeing any of the apps on my sd card as I did previously.
Thanks.
edit: just realized you were using apps2sd, so yeah i think you'll have to partition new card and put the image on your new card, then do a nandroid restore, no need for TI.

TI just backs up your application apks and associated settings stored in the phones data folder (root required). Nandroid makes an image of your phones internal rom. Anything on your sd card can be backed up with copy and paste on any computer.
There is no need to use TI or nandroid for swapping an sd card, only changing roms. You can swap your sd card out while your phone is running, nothing vital is stored there.

It is if you are using apps2sd... which I didn't put in the original post.
Sorry.

What is the best way to move from a SD based CM7 to a emmc CM7 and not loose any apps or data? I've been running off the SD card for several weeks and am ready to move to the flash based setup but don't want to loose any data or apps. I may also want to be able to dual boot into the Nook 1.2. Currently running CM7 41, OC Kernel 04/04/11, and dualboot menu all off the SD card.
Thanks,
jmak
+1. Little help?
Thanks!
titanium backup your apps/data, then install fresh copy on emmc, then restore all
I thought about doing the reverse, emmc to sd but that thought went away after a few minutes

How do you use titanium backup to do the restore since the backup is stored on the original SD card that was used to boot CM7? Do you have to copy the backup files to another card to do the restore?

yes,
-do the backup,
-copy the sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder to your computer (via adb/cifs-wifi/dropbox/ESFileExplorer/whatever)
-install your prefered ROM
-copy to sdcard/TitaniumBackup from your computer's copy
-batch restore (i'd buy titanium pro if you have many apps, if not, it will ask to confirm restoring one by one)
Hi everyone,
I have CM7.1 stable on SD-card (verygreen's method) but want to now convert fully to emmc. Is there any method for conversion wothout data/settings loss.
I'm unable to do a nandroidbackup of the SD. Please help.
Thanks
I think a Titanium back up whilst on SD followed by a restore when on emmc will give you most of what you want in this type of transfer.
Yeah, TB can be an option but would it copy the "extra" data directories of apps? I really don't wanna download that again.
When you are running on emmc then those apps that create their own app specific directories would normally put them on the SD.
So I think you want to copy those out first from your existing SD by using the USB mount for example and then restore them afterwards to the SD you want to use for user files when running emmc. The apps then shouldn't know the difference.
I just started dual boot stock 1.4/ cm7 and i am wondering how do I run the restore from titanium backup to get my apps back ? I am a n00b so this was my first time since autonooter trying anything. I did make a back up and it is on a seperate sd card. would I just copy the titanium folder onto the cm7 card ?
easiest way is to adb the titanium folder... you have to put it on what CM7 sees as the "sdcard" which is partition 4 on the SD card in that configuration.
just to confirm, to do a backup i select the sd alternate and use that to backup to say sd correct ?? (cwm backup for sd ) (restore the same, to sd ?? )
running 10 nightly, followed :good: leapinlar excelent guides :good: as well as others. running on SD, using AlternateCWM-SDInstalls-Rev2-v6.0.1.2
(then i can copy Both clockwork mod folders to the computer for safe keeping)
thanks so much,
Joel
feel like i have been reading for days on this, but it payed off, running great cm10 on a sandisk .89 scorring sd card. (stock nook all intact)

Yes, you have it right. The nandroid backup of the SD installation gets put on the sdcard partition. And it is a good idea to copy it somewhere for safe keeping. If you do a restore using it, it will restore it to the SD installation, leaving the ROM on emmc alone.
