Is it possible to create nandroid backup of the NAND in img format using CWM 5.x? Some time ago it was possible, but now it seems both Backup all and Advanced backup options produce only tar backups...

nandroid only backups the rom itself... no spl... radio or recovery
Moved to General (Q&A)
Some earlier versions of Nandroid backup DOES IN FACT backup recovery, but not radio or spl.
It will backup the following partitions:
Userdata, system and boot.
I wanted to flash a custom ROM and decided to do a nandroid backup first. Every time i did one it did not contain the system.img file which means that the stock ROM wasn't backed up. It only backed up recovery and boot. I have the official CWM from clockwordmod.com.
Please help.
BTW. I know that i can use the stock system image from google, but it's much easier to just recover a nandroid backup.

What version of CWM are you running?
Need help restoring a old version of nandroid backup. I cant restore it with CWM 5.0.2.7
Files that are inside the backup folder:
.android_secure.img
cache.img
cust.img
data.img
nandroid.md5
system.img
When i try to restore it with CWM 5.0.2.7 it just says that boot is missing.
What version of CWM i need to take that i can restore it.
Exactly that wich one you maked a backup. If you want to restore 2.2 backup from gb... you will discover interesting tbings maybe some kind of brick 2.2 and 2.3 file systems is diferent.

i made a nandroid backup cwm philz,does it backup efs too?
That's a pic of a kebab recipe. Nandroid doesn't include an EFS backup, but you can make one with PhilZ (custom backup job).
So last night I performed a Nandroid backup in TWRP recovery.
If I were to format my phone and install a new ROM would the restore from that backup just restore my old ROM?
I guess to preserve app data I just do a backup with just the data not the full backup?
