Hello, I have a full backup created with ClockWork Mod Recovery, I want to go back to Stock Froyo, would be a problem just to flash the backup again? thanks!
No problem, just do wipe data/cache and wipe dalvik before restoring backup.

make sure you have froyo kernel restored before flashing back to froyo, in case you got defy+ cm9 build on red lens
Actually I created the backup with System Recovery when I was on Froyo, now that I want to go back to it from CM9, I turn off the phone, press volume down + power and it shows me "android system recovery" but I don't see wipe dalvik, just wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition and there is no advanced option to look for dalvik, is this original recovery or clockwork? thanks!
Thats the Motorola Recovery
You need to power up your phone and once you see the blue led blinking press the vol down button
Then go to recovery advanced, there you can also make a nandroid backup
Thanks! Didn't know about that one, however, I can't find any option where to load my nandroid backup, I have my backup on the sdcard root, and the folder structure of the backup is:
goapkrev -> backup -> 'backup date' -> the img files and such
If I go to Custom recovery -> Restore(System and data) or Custom Recovery -> Advanced Restore it says that it does not find any files, but the backup is there, should I change the folder name to another or taking the files out of some of the folders? thanks in advanced!!
EDIT: Got it! I just had to change the folder name from goapkrev to clockworkmod, thanks!

I just installed MIUI and I didn't like it, how do I go restore to the backup I did with among RA 2.3? I only see. Img's when trying to restore and I get "oops" messages.
In recovery you go to nandroid backup/restore and choose restore and then the latest backup. Wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after the restore and you should be golden. As long as you're using the same recovery you made the backup with.
We're comin from a pure power source.
I needed to put the imgs on a folder so I cud flash, figured it out myself

i notice if i wipe any caches before doing a nandroid restore i get issues like FC's after it reboots. Anytime i do a nandroid & dont wipe anything, its perfect.
Hi all,
So I'm facing a problem with my Defy after flashing some ROMs, as detailed in this post.
Since I've made Nandroid-backups when everything was OK, my natural answer was to restore the phone to a previous state using it.
But for some reason after restoring a Nandroid (I've tried with both I have) my phone stucks with the Google logo and never finish booting...
Those are the steps I follow to restore a Nandroid:
1. Boot into Recovery Mode
2. Wipe data/factory reset
3. Wipe cache partition
4. Wipe dalvik cache
5. Restore system & data (choose nandroid by date)
6. Reboot system now
Am I doing something wrong? Why can't I restore my phone to a previous date?
Any idea is greatly appreciated...
You might have flashed gb kernel ROMS as well. Probably now you are coming from a GB kernel build to a froyo kernel build.
You need follow these steps, restore system+data, boot, devtree, and optionally recovery. Check if you have boot.img, devtree.img files in your nandroid. You should use cwm recovery which has these options to restore, they will present in Advanced restore.

Thank you. I would've tried this. But yesterday night I did a full SBF so that I could restart using the phone. So I've lost access to root and CMW. Will bring those back when I have a chance and, then, ROMize it all over again...
Cheers.

Try using the normal option after the restore in the boot option in bootmenu rather than 2nd-init
hey guys having problem while restoring your backup files I've a solution:good:
sometimes we get problem while using custom roms or we brick our phone
but we can backup our stock rom through CMW but the problem is that is gives problem while restoring it which is bit annoying
Go to Stock Recovery
Select WIPE CACHE
Select WIPE DATA
Now go to Clockmodrecovery (CMW)
Clear data
clear cache
restore and backup
select restore
select the backup file
BE PATIENT IT WILL TAKE TIME TO RESTORE
WHEN YOU'RE DONE REBOOT STOCK RECOVERY
THEN REBOOT ENJOY!!
HIT THANKS BUTTON IF IT HELPED YOU IT COST YOU NOTHING
After a battery empty, I restarted my Defy+. But now it got stuck on "Starting apps." at the end of the boot.
I have to wipe data to make my phone ending the boot.
If I restore data which I previously backup in recovery mode, I'm still stucked with "Starting apps."
How can I debug the settings or data that avoid that? I really want to restore my data.

Are you using the new Teamwin recvoery to flash?
Ive had the same issue ( and many more besides that) for me, to fix the problem i did this:
Go back to recovery (Teamwin) and wipe everything
re-boot, go back to recovery (team win) and flash an older rom with clock work mod recovery, and let it boot.
re- start the phone and then go back to recovery ( clockwork mod) and flash the newer CM10 rom from clcokwork mod (First wipe everything /data/dalvik/cache/factory re-set)

Thanx,
Yes Teamwin delivered with cm-10-20130527.
What I done without success:
*Flash older ROM and restore more older data with CWM
*Push with adb unzipped
I should have flashed 10 to 20 times changing some steps each time. Each time I done wipe cache, dalvik and sometimes a data format and a wipe system.
I abandoned the idea to restore my data. Have to reenter all settings manually (find and enter account settings for CSip or some solooong preshared key for Vpncilla and so on).
Then what is positive: I format my data partition to ext4. I learnt a lot from very fragmented information for all those steps. I have a fresh new install.

You can use Nandroid Manager to use ur data while the phone is booted, so install it, it will find ur backup, and the u can do a restore of ur apps, with data.

"Nandroid Manager currently supports nandroid backups created by TWRP and Clockworkmod (v5.xx and v6.xx) based recoveries! ".
Very nice app then. Thank you too late. I immediately install it.
I have replaced the framework files in the system... rebooted the phone and got many errors... can't even view anything in the phone.
Do I solve the problem by installing the bootloader and Modems XXUFNC9 by odin3?
Do I lose my files by installing this?
If this worked, would I be able to do a backup using recovery mode?
Thanks in advance
you can use your phone again after flashing stock firmware and wiping data & cache
you will lose any data
I dont recommend that you do a backup in this status because you missed the phone up
always do Nandroid backup when the phone is clean !
if you have a previous backup you can restore it

so there's no way to restore my files?!
go to recovery then do a custom backup and choose data & cache (dont select any other option) and hit start backup
then after flashing & wiping flash a custom recovery and go to custom restore and choose data & cache
and hit start restore
your phone should work with previous apps
make sure to backup in SD CARD !

Just to confirm.. this is the sequence u mean?,, please correct me if am wrong
1. back up
2- wipe data and cache
3- restore
yes like that but do a (custom backup)
not a normal or full backup !

what do you mean by a custom back up?..how to do it?
the most thing I care about is my photos and videos... is it possible to just back up those?
after this i have to install omega rom to do the rest of the work...do u recommend this step?
follow my steps
go to recovery
go to backup and restore > custom backup to /storage/sdcard1
then select everything instead of the SYSTEM then start backup
after that wipe data & cache
then flash stock firmware via Odin
then wipe data & cache
then flash a custom recovery
then go backup and restore > restore from /storgae/sdcard1 and select the folde qnd hit start
everything should be ok
