When I restore a backup my WIFI will not turn on, the only thing that fixes it is doing a factory reset which really defeats the purpose of having a nandroid backup. I've experienced this issue with both CWM recovery and Philz recovery backups only on the HTC 816, never on any of my previous Samsung phones. I've tried wiping and not wiping dalvik & /data. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Flash the lates firmware.zip
suggestions for wifi not working
Go to the boot Loader and run factory reset from there it worked to me ... when i restore softkey signal bar wifi nothing worked then i did it worked cheers

Thank you for the reply but as I explained in my original post I'd already found that doing a factory reset fixed the wifi issue, but...., that defeats the purpose of doing a nandroid backup if I do not have working wifi after a restore.
I did extract the firmware.zip from the latest OTA update and I also extracted the rom.zip from the latest RUU.exe from HTC however neither contained a radio.img that I could flash after a nandroid restore, been looking all over and can not locate a radio.img.
This is such a weird problem and I know I am not the only one with this issue but searching Google for a solution has not been fruitful. If anyone can point me to or upload a radio.img for lollipop A5_CHL I'd really appreciate it. I am S-Off so flashing radio will not be a problem.

I extracted and flashed the latest firmware.zip from the OTA, zip contained no radio.img, just two modem files which did not fix wifi issue.

I really hope someone can help me here. I rooted a Droid 2 (not global) for a friend a while back and now we seem to have a problem. He got the main idea of how it all works but he said he tried to put a new rom on, wiped data and cache and the rom apparently never loaded. Now when he turns it on it bootloops. I figured this wasn't going to be an issue, all i'd have to do is go into recovery and flash a backup. Well problem is, it wouldn't go into recovery via power+X and then the search button. It brought me into something I had never seen. All it had was:
Reboot Phone
Install update.zip
wipe partition
wipe data and cache
After trying for two hours and not getting anything with trying to get a D2 rom and renaming it update.zip we still had nothing so stupid me wiped data and cache.
Now I don't get a boot image all it does is send me to bootloader in which I don't know how to navigate and there is nothing on this specific problem.
SO HOW DO I FIX IT?
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!!!!!

What you saw was the stock recovery, not the custom recovery used to flash ROMs. Boot into the stock recovery and wipe data and cache from there. This should fix your bootloop. If not, you might have to SBF, reroot, and try reflashing your ROM.
If you have to, here is the guide to SBF:

And is the SBF file to download:

My Nexsus 4 was at 5.0.1 updated OTA, I rooted and installed recovery and created a nandriod backup on the internal SD card. The phone was working fine for the most part except it was having issues with the screen going black when making a call and would not come out of that state. I wanted to revert back prior backup so I did a nandriod restore with CWM v6.0.4.7 and now my phone is in a bootloop. I've tried wipe data/factory reset, also tried wipe cache partition, but still stuck in bootloop. I'm not sure what else I can do to get out of this bootloop state/ Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Fixed it by using Nexus Root Tool Kit to flash stock image. Not sure what happened but I'm switching to TWRP. First time using CWM and things didn't work out well for me using it.
I know that many of you has faced problems with restoring stock touchwiz 4.4.2 rom.
But, after reading in these forums i've found the right way to restore your backup
I used twrp and i didn't tested it on cwm recovery.
So follow me.
First, boot in recovery and restore everything you have backed up except DATA and Boot
Then, boot your device and set it up and reboot in recovery again and restore your DATA and Boot
Voilà that should work i tested it with my s3 neo it really works.
Help me by pressing thanks.

Thank you, you saved me hours of time!
If you dont have backup you must use ODIN and download the firmware from sammobile. It's not worth because original firm is slow and has heating problems.
So, I decided to attempt to flash Elite ROM - I had followed all instructions and this was of course, to become a complete failure.
I decided to play it safe and revert to a Nandroid backup I made via TWRP. I flashed EliteTWRP initially, but then reverted to the TWRP I had before the EliteTWRP. I used the Original TWRP to restore the back up as this was what the backup was done on. After restoring, I wiped the dalvik cache, and factory data reset the device.
I'm now experiencing a weird setup loop. EMUI setup when you first set up the device, is, well, it's looping. I get to the 'Set Up as New Device' or 'Restore From Google' page and it goes back, all the way to the start.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Whats is ur model was-?
Thanks for your assistance, but managed to flash a new XenonHD system on it
Hi,
I've flashed TWRP for a sm-G900f via heimdall, booted into TWRP-Recovery, made an backup from the working Stock ROM to sd card, flashed lineage open gapps etc., all works well.
Because of somtimes not working Sensors I've tried to test if the sensor problem is an hardware or an software issue, so recovered the stock rom backup using the installed twrp 3.2.1-0. Therefor I've made these steps :
Boot into recovery
Wipe cache, system, davlink-cache, format data
restore the stock rom backup
reboot
Every reboot results in booting to recovery, Samsung system won't start.
Tried to disconnect battery for a few minutes etc.
Where is my mistake ? Could someone give me an advice ?
Every restore of the lineage backups using this way works well.
Regards
Fred

Corrupted backup maybe?
A long time ago I made a backup of stock and was able to go back and forth with no issues. You can try and go back to stock, root again and try another back up.
Corrupted backup ? It's the only one I've made after flashing TWRP and before installing Lineage.

It happens sometimes, I had an SD card with a bad sector so every time I would make a back up it would get corrupted if I deleted the back up. I ended up leaving the backup so it will no longer write on the bad sectors.

I think, you have to flash or restore the right kernel.
Which partitions have you backed up?
Sorry for the late response, the backup includes in my mind system, data and boot partition because the backup consit's of the following files:
boot.emmc.win
boot.emmc.win.sha2
data.ext4.win
data.ext4.win.sha2
data.info
recovery.log
system.ext4.win000
system.ext4.win000.sha2
system.ext4.win001
system.ext4.win001.sha2
system.info
