in Amon_Ra's thread about his recovery image there is already a discussion on exactly this issue. you can check there, whether you find any clues.
did you by any chance use apps2sd when you made the nandroid backup?
when you attempted to do the nandroid restore, did you format your sdcard before that (and thereby deleting partitions that were used for apps2sd before)?
--> means, was your sdcard partitioned when you made the backup, and is the sdcard now still partitioned?
if not, from what i understand the restore error will appear, because the file system structure is not the same now as it was when you made the backup

Man thank you for this tips I will definitely take a closer look a that thread and again thanks
Hi guys,
Once again, thanks to MartinEve and the whole unrevoked team for the work they've made on Wildfire rooting.
I've just used unrevoked to root my wildfire. Seems alright cause :
> id cmd tells I'm root
> titanium backup tells root permission is given
Cool
But... I try to do a nandroid backup from the clockworkmod recovery and it says : "Error while dumping boot image!"
Do you have any idea ?
Thx a lot
Solved...
It was due to a problem on my sdcard (was not able to write in the /sdcard folder even from windows). I had to delete some files and then nandroid backup was available.

I saw Online Nandroid Backup / Nandroid Backup without re-booting in the featured page. Would it work fot our g3?? Well i did try it and made a backup but a few steps failed but it did make a successful backup. But didn't yet try a restore. Has anybody tried it ??? BTW i am on ICS. Also the backup files contain the following -->
android_secure.vfat.tar
cache.rfs.tar
data.ext3.tar
efs.rfs.tar
nandroid.md5
sd-ext.ext4
system.ext2.tar

Install device specific patch from here for backing up boot partition. http://bit.ly/OnlineNandroid-partitionbug
The only way to solve the bootloop after restoring cwm backup is doing restorecon.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46028304&postcount=164
It also could be done via aroma file manager, but it is the one of annoying and uncomfortable way
Is there anyone who can make an update.zip to do restorecon?
Ummm....
Might wanna request this in the thread that is discussing the CWM methods and recoveries that you linked to as that would be the best place to link to such a file from
I would suggest speaking with Chenglu and see if he can add the file('s) to his main post.
I saw many people getting md5 mismatch while doing backup. So, I wrote this thread to help them.
Today I am going to share with you a method of restoring backups easily without an md5 error.
1ST METHOD:
Here are the steps:
1)Go to the folder where you saved your backup.
2)Open nandroid.md5 file with any text editor on your phone.
3)Delete all the lines from starting to end.
4)Save the file and close it.
5)Now restore your backup through CWM or Philz Touch or TWRP.
2ND METHOD:
If you changed the name of the backup folder, then, that is causing the problem. Try to change the name without adding spaces and/or special characters.
3RD METHOD:
Also you can use nandroid manager to recreate md5 sums.
Link in the next post by akiratoriyama
Thanks to @akiratoriyama
Or if you don't want to use nandroid manager, then you can use terminal emulator to recreate those sums:
Open terminal emulator then,
Use the following commands. (DON'T FORGET TO REPLACE "2012-04-17.10.09.36" WITH YOUR OWN BACKUP FOLDER NAME)
su
# mount -o remount rw /sdcard
#cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-04-17.10.09.36
#rm nandroid.md5
#md5sum *img > nandroid.md5
Don't forget to put the spaces!!
Voila, now your backup will restore properly without any md5 error:beer:

No way to restore stock rom. You didn't complete the backup.
Yes you can flash 4.2 to get TouchWiz back.
