I have used backup and restore multiple times back in the CWM days on my Gtab2.
I'm going to flash MIUI 11, so please provide me the exact steps to backup stock rom, I did a backup once but it won't restore correctly.
Thanks

I wanted to flash a custom ROM and decided to do a nandroid backup first. Every time i did one it did not contain the system.img file which means that the stock ROM wasn't backed up. It only backed up recovery and boot. I have the official CWM from clockwordmod.com.
Please help.
BTW. I know that i can use the stock system image from google, but it's much easier to just recover a nandroid backup.

What version of CWM are you running?
Well, I really appreciate the pre rooted ROMS for the i9505 and everything is working good, even OTA and official status. :good:
As flashing a custom recovery makes it unofficial (so no OTA), the only way I've found in order to make a full nandroid backup is using the Online Nandroid Backup app from the Google Play Store. I obtained a CWM backup file that I stored on my external SD card.
Now, in order to make a full nandroid restore of my previous backup (not only apps but the whole system), I have to flash again a custom recovery. Sadly, when doing this, I have to reflash again the stock recovery, to use Triangle Away and to make a full wipe for having official status and OTA back again :crying:
I wonder if there is another way to restore my full nandroid bakcup without using a custom recovery or without affecting the flash counter/official status ?
Thanks !
This was something i tried to do, resulting in a brick, which i only got out of by flashing stock with odin and reflashing my rom.
basically, i flashed cyanogenmod, and made a cwm backup, but kept my stock rom cwm backup. i thought that by restoring either backup, i could "dual boot" my phone.
it didnt work. the phone went crazy, and soft bricked. im guessing that it has to do with the partitions, since cm10 and stock have different partitions.
weird thing is, i accidentally did the same thing on a friends phone, and it just (right after clearing all user data in recovery,) booted into stock rom.
help me
Please give me the link for cwm backup of stock rom. My internal memory corrupted. So i hav bypassed it by sd. Please upload or send me the backup you have. I will be thankfull forever. Pls my email id. [email protected]
Hi guys! I need a huge favour. I'm on Hyperion 9 but i want to go back to the latest stock rom (DDMD1). I had my own backup too but i lost my sdcard a few weeks ago and my PC is dead too, so i cant Odin. Can somebody pls send me a stock nandroid backup.. Am badly in need Thanks in advance.
Edit: I know nandroid backup containts personal data. What i mean is the pure backup without ur data when u took right after you factory reset/Odin flash or watever.
Update : sorry, I solved it. Not sure what happened but the 4th time trying completed the restore with no change in twrp. Go figure.
I searched for help on this but I'm not finding an answer.
I tried to restore my stock nandroid backup yesterday after being on RR nougat build (great build as well as cm14.1 but I had a few glitches that I want worked out before I make it my main rom). I had previously restored with NO problems at all but when I tried to restore I got through most of the process then was given an "error=255". I don't have a complete log so if that helps to solve this, I will try again and grab it. The only thing that is different other than the new rom is that I updated to twrp 3.0.2-5 from the 3.0.2-4 that I made the backup with. Should I revert back to that twrp then try to restore?
