Hi,
Love this site for the sheer amount of knowledge people have. I've searched for an answer to this but can't find a clue. I flashed my Fascinate with CWM and then TSM Resurrection with build EH03, Firmware 2.3.5. I did a backup of my stock Froyo before moving over to a custom ROM but I can't find the NANDROID backup file on the sdcard. I then did another backup after upgrading and now I can't see either of those backups.
Has this happened to anyone else with Fascinate? I've checked in clockwork/backup but the files are not there.
Thanks for your help.
There not in
SD card>clockwordmod>backups?

Appreciate the help shelby04861.
Does anyone know where the files could be or what the issue could be?

Couldn't find one. I have CWM installed. If someone could point me to a tutorial, or give me a brief one, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
Josh
After you have flash cwm,open it, scroll down to back up current rom, click it, and then you will have a backed up rom in nandroid.

sounds to me that you are getting corrupt downloads, have you tried to dl a diff zip, one that seems to be working for everyone else, and test it? have you upgraded roms today, or changed anything???
I've tried a few... apk downloads are fine but sips are not... I haven't been able to even flash kernels so I haven't done anything new
give us some phon info... rooted? rom? ect...
Rooted with stock Rom and using faux 8.2..... noticed when I tried to flash 8.3 so I tried other zips and nothing downloads
have you tried a full wipe and restoring an older back up... then seeing if that fixes it, or pushing them through ADB?
Restored backup.... don't use adb... I can install them if I put on SD from computer. Just don't download direct any more

well i am sorry i cant help you bro... my knowledge base is rather limited, but i have walked you through everything i know how to do... you could get a logcat and give it to the dev of the rom, and i am sure they could help you a bit more. and if you need help on how to get a logcat then go to the resource bible in the dev forum or use the search function, but i can take you no further
Well it was stock tmo so no developer.... I die flash to 8.3 kernel through SD and problem is gone for now.... but thanks for your help
np, and i am glad it is resolved, happy modding
hey guys,
i have a big problem. i just flashed the newest cm7 nightly for my i9000 and now there is no baseband version anymore. i tried to flash a lot of versions but its still "unknown" and therefore no connection is able.
i also tried to restore my old nandroid backups with a working baseband version but didn't help.
can you please help me to get my phone working?
ty in advice
Treat it as a fresh install. Flash back to froyo to restore your baseband then flash cm7 again.

but isnt it possible to do something else?
and have you a good howto for me? ty!
Baseband unknown is probably a corrupt IMEI, If you made the efs backup before flashing CM7, then restore that, and make sure you have a compatible modem (i had this issue with MIUI yesterday)
Then after restoring the efs backup, reboot, and that should fix it.
If not then as mentioned above, do a fresh install.
Search for EZBase / EZROM to flash back to froyo. and then follow the installation procedure for CM7...
always have a current backup of the efs,. leave a copy or two on your PC, this will save you from having to do this whole fresh install again
trust me... i learned the hard way.... 3 times lol
mhm it seems to be the IMEI stuff. once i did an efs backup while installling the cm7 with a script called something like efs_backup
where can i find this backup and how to restore it?
ty man!
does someone know how to restore the IMEI. I did a backup before and i think i found the folder: /sdcard/backup/efs

Yes thats correct, copy the NV_data.bin and the NV_data.bin MD5 to /efs using root explorer or similar.
once done reboot and check when the phone boots back up.
should i delete all files in the directory /efs first before i copy those 2 files in?
another hint. i tried to backup the efs and then installing a fitting modem:
when i try to install the modem (JVK - definetly working before) i get this message in cwm: asser failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/modem.bin","radio") insallation aborted
so can help me?
ty
Ok first of all, copying the relevant items from /backup /efs to /efs will just overwrite, so no need to delete - you can if you want.
as for the modem issue, maybe it was a bad download, try re-downloading. Also, make sure THAT particular modem is compatible, there have been some issues with the latest CM / MIUI releases, there is a link somewhere to all modems for this specific release..
EDIT: here are the modems for the latest release of CM / MIUI http://codeworkx.de/download/cyanogenmod/
I have a feeling in the end you will find that just going back to froyo first is still your best option.
Search in the General thread for my name and CM7 install to find my guide. Follow it and you will be fine.

Well they can search this forum for the fix and apply it. So far all evidence seems to suggest that you cannot do this on your own.
While restoring from an efs backup, it's important to restore the appropriate rights for the files too. A simple copy-paste doesn't work. If you have properly backed up the efs folder (not copy-paste), a correct restore action should work.
Even if everything fails, service guys should be able to regenerate the efs folder with the correct IMEI, but they won't do it for free, since your warranty is invalid by now.

You can do this on your own if you follow the steps in a few guides knocking around on the forum.
Can anyone point me the exact thing to backup so that I can restore when I get issues? I'm worried now.
I've made a copy of my EFS folder. Isn't that enough? If so, Can you point me out to the correct direction to backup and restore b ack??

I tried all guides incl. reformating of the efs partition, but with no success
What did you do? Did you send the phone to samsung?
If Samsung will not help and you have no other option contact me via PM, I maybe able to help you.
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.
