So I've gotten myself into a real mess with my nook. I was playing around with it and accidentally deleted my user partition and when I was trying to repair it I ended up wiping it of everything... So as I've been trying to fix it with Nook Manager which creates a backup but I don't think its a functioning one because when I press restore backup nothing happens. I also tried doing a factory restore but it says the factory restore.zip is missing. I can't find either a backup img or a restore.zip for the NST online anywhere. Is there any hope or is this thing gone for good? I would really appreciate any help people can offer.
Can anyone please test this for me?

Hi I am wondering what way Is best to perform these two operations. As without an SD card when I try these and then perform a factory reset they get deleted and I'm back to square one as when I first got the phone.
Cheers

Post 2 of the guide in my signature or stickied at the top of this forum.
Also, a factory reset from within a custom recovery (CWM/TWRP/ETC) will not wipe your SDcard contents.
I definitely recall a few times when my titanium backup has got deleted.. must of being doing something wrong.

Hi...
I also asked this question in the help thread but couldn't get a proper detailed answer.
I made a CWM Nandroid backup, I can see it through CWM, but it's nowhere to be found in the SDcard
I tried looking in sdcard0/clockworkmod/backup but it's not there...
If this helps, the backup can be seem in CWM on this route.
Install zip from sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
It's taking up a lot if space and I don't need it, so can someone help locate it with me..
I don't like asking again and again and in detail in help thread so I made a new thread.
Thank you

AW: Made CWM backup. Can't bee seen in device but taking up space
They are located in /data/media/clockworkmod/ . If you want to delete them you can do this via CWM in backup submenue.

Hi all,
I was hoping someone could shed sime light to my situation. I have a rogers S4 and I rooted it via motochopper and it worked fine. Restored all my apps from Titanium backuoband all was well.
This morning my phone then got stuck at the samsung boot screen and I had to wipe data via the stock recovery to get iy working again...
Can anyone tell me why this is happening? This is thr 3rd time this has happened

My guess would be the titanium backup. As it can mess things up, once in a while.

I would blame TB mess ups more on old data being restored that causes problems, than TB itself.
OP... Are your app backups from a different ROM? If so, then I would try restoring without data. Or fresh app installs.

are you restoring system apps? or just user apps? if you are restoring system apps or something like the messaging storage, will normally cause problems in TB.
best to just connect to wifi and download all the apps again from playstore.
What I would do is odin back to stock do not restore anything for a day or 2, and monitor it. If it never does it again, then it was your backup, keep in mind some apps that worked on the G3, may not work on the G4.
Yes, this is Titanium, it happenned to me too, remember that doing that is like copying everything in the C: Program Files of a PC, formating the computer and restoring that folder, it might work, but you might end up in a lot of trouble overtime since the OS installs different part everywhere. Use Carbon aka Helium, its a much cleaner way to go
I was restoring apps (with data) and the backups were from older ROMs I used in my nexus 4. I am currently trying a non-rooted method for a few days and see if this problem reoccurs

UPDATE: so far so good... My setup is currently unrooted and I haven't had this issue appear. I'm gonna root in a few days and monitor it again

I know i did somthing incredibly stupid but because now i cannr enable the wifi and settings show that there is no mac address. Factory reset failed to bring any solution. Can anybody help please?

sounds like when you restored the info from your old phone it borked something. If you made a back up before doing that then I would restore it. Otherwise you will need to most likely restore to stock or if you were on a custom rom reflash it.
try factory reset, never ever backup that kind of stuff, unless it's via LG tool.

I have a t-mobile g2 d801, I rooted then backed up my efs with freegee then installed nrg ROM. I decided to see if the restore efs would work so I used freegee to restore it. Then I flashed the latest stock rooted ROM and now I'm getting a reboot about 30 seconds after the Os boots a date my imei is gone. Please help

I can't give you specific help to fix this, but, I can advise that you make an extra backup of your EFS. Copy it off of your phone if possible. If not, just copy it to a different partition on your phone, so you have more than 1 copy in more than 1 place.
If you attempt to return to stock with T-Mobile flashing tool all the data on your phone will be erased. So moving a copy of the EFS backup off your phone is the first thing you want to do. If you can use ADB with the phone you can get a copy of it off your phone.
After that, I'd wait for someone with specific knowledge of this problem to assist you in fixing it. Assuming the backup of your EFS file is good, you will be able to fix your phone.

I'm in the same boat. I have my efs1 and efs2 img files, but no idea what to do with them. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

EDIT: Autoprime listed this method for restoring efs
autoprime said:
If flashable zip wasn't created or to manually restore efs img files run the following commands using adb shell while in recovery:
dd if=/sdcard/EFS_Backup/efs1.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modemst1
dd if=/sdcard/EFS_Backup/efs2.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modemst2

I tried that, but still have "0" as my imei. Perhaps this method could work for someone else in this thread?
freegee doesnt work, then you probably lost root
also try when wifi on
contact freegee maker with log. you may have found a bug.
try rooting again
