Help!!! Nandroid restore stuck at data!!!

Hello peeps,
I am very confused as to why my nandroid backup doesn't want to restore my data.
I've been doing this many time over the past half-year....
Today, I wanted to try the new nightly of CM7, so I flashed and backed-up using ROM Manager, everything was fine. (went from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4)
Now I am trying to do a restore and it works until "restoring data" and it gets stuck there then the ClockWorkMod restarts....
Is there any way to save this?
Is my nandroid backup corrupt?
Did I just lose everything? Help!!!
Thanks a lot guys!

It sounds like it is corrupt. Do you have another NANDROID besides the one your restoring?

[Q] Error Restoring Data from TWRP backup

Hi All,
Ran in to a bit of a problem when trying to restore a backup i had made in TWRP 2.4.3.0.
The System restored, but the data, which is 700MB took around 2 seconds to "restore", and just wiped the Data partition, instead of restoring anything.
If anyone knows how to overcome this issue i would be much appreciated, as I was trying to recover everything in Data.

This is common in the last few versions of TWRP. You can try using Orange Backup in the play store to restore it.
Thanks for the reply.
Managed to restore all my Apps and Data from Titanium Backup, which is a lifesaver!

[Q] noob questiom

Hello guys,
I am new here and I have a questiom .. right now im using 4.3 firmware on my i9500 .. before i flashed it i made a backup of my 4.2.2 firmware through CWM to my sd card .. I wonder will i be able to restore it? Or this is the same case as downgrading and it may harm my phone?
Note: my phone is rooted and i installed the cwm but i am scared to hit restore on cwm
You woun't damage your phone.
Your phone will be restored to the exactly same state as it was at backup time.
Another question is how to restore your backup correctly
Google for clockwokmode, cwm, NANDroid backup

[Q] TWRP restore to a replacement device--what should I restore?

Ok, so I had to get a replacement Note 4 due to camera hardware issues. I made a TWRP backup of my original phone, now I want to restore things on my new phone. My question is what should I restore? The things I backed was everything I could:
Boot
Recovery
System
Data
Cache
EFS
Modem
Should I restore everything? I get the feeling that I shouldn't try to restore EFS for some reason, but I am not sure. Anything I definitely should not restore on the new device? Thanks

[Q] Nandroid Error backup and restore

Device: Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337M)
Android:5.0.1
Rooted
cwm custom recovery touch version.
When I do a Nandroid backup it seems to do successfully but I see errors in the log file.
And when I restore using the same backup after it finishes restore process, all the services stop working (example: google.app ....)
I attach screenshots and log file for backup process.
Please explain why this is happening and how to fix it.
Thanks
Sam

As lennyz & Reaper suggested I switched to twrp, both backup and restore are working smoothly.
Thanks for help.
CWM isn't updated anymore. So you should either swith to TWRP or Philz (thought Philz isn't updated anymore either but it still works).
Maybe that could fix it. Also make sure you have plenty of space left when you make a nandroid. Something like 5gb when you are on TW rom.
Use PhilZ, as it is based on CMW, so it should work with your backups. If you don't care about the backups anymore then go with TWRP. Haven't had any problems with TWRP so far.
