Hi again. I did a factory reset on my device. But now I am not able to restore the backup file. When I go to the restore section in TWRP i don't see my backup file. What do I do? Please help

So my Nexus was acting really slow (I'm on 4.2.1), so I decided to backup via CWM and then factory reset, and do an Advanced Restore to restore my data. I backed up and did factory reset, but when I went to restore my backup, it couldn't be found. Apparently 4.2 moved the default CWM location to search "data/media/" and I didn't have my backups there (obviously). So I moved the clockworkmod folder from /sdcard/ to data/media/ and tried to restore. It gave me an MD5 mismatch, so I researched that, found a solution, and did restore. Unfortunately, that bricked my Nexus 7 so I had to restore via the ToolKit.
My question is…is there any possible way I can restore my data to my now factory-fresh (4.2.1) Nexus 7 from the backup I made? I have the backup and the blobs.
Bump, the same thing just happened to me and I dont want to create a new thread. Is there any way to restore a 4.1.2 backup from a device running 4.2.1? Thanks in advance
EDIT: I solved it by booting into CWM and then pushing the rom, full wiping and installing again

Hi Everybody,
I'm really disappointed. For the second Times, I've corrupted my EFS partition. IMEI is empty, as the baseband...
The first time that I had this problem, I could restore the EFS using the fabulous fix from Fireasusman : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47014662#post47014662
But this time, It didn't work.... I'm really really sad.
Before trying to restore the stock firmware ( My problem was coming when i tried to restore stock firmware before to sell it) i made a Nandroid backup with TWRP recovery. I've an EFS/MODEM backup in this Nandroid.
When I reboot into recovery, and go to restore, I can select EFS, and it seems restore It. It wrote : Restoring 2 partitions/Restoring EFS/restoring EFS2/restoring EFS3/EFS Done/Restoring Modem/ Modem Done...
But after reboot the problem is Still There...
I'm really Angry, I lost 400$ and I don't understand why my Nandroid Restore of EFS failed...
I also try to flash modem with ODIN but it still Failed.
Note: I was an temasek CM12 (android lollipop).
Thank you very much for every help.
1. Flash STOCK ROM and take a look how it works. Sometimes only flashing it recovers the EFS folder.
2. Next time use this APP for backup/restore your EFS.
Really thanks for your help.
But i've allready try to restore stock ROM. At least twice. But efs is still corrupt. And the phone never arrive to boot...
About how many time I can consider that flash stock ROM will not repair my EFS partition ?
I've allready done twice...
Ok... I solved my problem.
As I explain in first post, I'had a EFS backup with a Nandroid Backup. But when I restore with TWRP, the problem was still there. No pin, No baseband etc...
I only delete the EFS folder using root explorer. I reboot, and it was OK. EFS folder was rebuilt automatically.... No more complicated than that...
Good finding

Because the IMEI is not stored in the EFS folder.
Has anyone tried to restore from a twrp backup before with the v20? Made a backup after root, would like to return to that state if possible. Just don't want to wipe and it can't boot and I got a paperweight since there is no ddl for restoring to stock
I have a twrp backup with all of the partitions backed up. I came from an S5, and when I would brick it or something, I would just boot into twrp and restore from the nandroid I previously made. But, now with the Oneplus 5, when I go to restore with a nandroid, it doesn't let me restore the data partition. I searched for solutions before posting this. The closest solution I found was to use titanium backup pro or similar app, to restore the data. Am I doing something or missing something? I thought when you made a nandroid backup it was just a copy of every aspect of your phone, which could be restored at any point?
You should have read the recovery thread. It says it can't restore OxygenOS data backups right now.
It actually says it will lead to a bootloop if you do. Maybe they disabled that option temporarily.
You can try this.
