I just updated my phone to the newest firmware and made sure to back up the entire contents of my phone to my computer.
However, when I went to the menu to restore my settings and contacts from my sim card, the stock app is not there. so how do i restore my contacts from the data directory?

First off, only make one post (XDA doesn't like spamming)
Anyway, what was the app name and are you on 2.3.5? Do you use XRECOVERY? Are you on custome Rom and/or kernel?

After searching through this forum and the internet for about an hour for a solution to this problem, I decided my best option was to post a new thread (I'm very sorry if there is another exactly like it; I wasn't able to find it). I own a t-mobile G2x (I don't think that's important but anyway). I recently decided to switch to a new custom ROM from the one I was using because I wanted to try miui. I used titanium backup to create a zip file containing a backup of my phone and the app (a guide to backing up and restoring told me to do this). The file (TitaniumBackup-4.7.0.zip) I saved on my computer and once I did a clean wipe and installed the ROM, I tried to install the zip file using CWM by going to install zip from from sdcard and selecting the zip. When I did this, I got the message:
E:Error in /sdcard/TitaniumBackup-4.7.0.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
How to I restore my data from this file? I appreciate any help.
If I'm not mistaken, your zip file = after you pressed backup, it will make the apps into zip. If this is what you meant by, it won't work. The zip only contains the program. You have to install titanium backup, then use the backup and restore option in the app to restore your file.

I have run a search and surprisingly did not find my particular question..
How do I make a backup (image?) of my phone as it stands now...
I flashed a rom, everything is working to my liking and have backed up all my apps and settings via TB.
Is it possible to have a backup sitting on my PC that I can just flash with Odin or CWM that will restore my phone to how it is right now? Similar to a PC image?
Thanks in advance!

Just make a nandroid backup using cwm and copy those backup files located in "clockworkmod " folder in SD card to your PC. Whenever you need to restore it back just copy back the files to.the same location and restore it via cwm.

Thanks buddy!
I am currently using the latest version of Cyanogen Mod. I have a backup of the stock rom 4.1.2. I am using Clocworkmod as a recovery tool. I do not know what type of backup it is. There was no nandroid.md5 in the backup folder when I tried to restore, so I created an empty file. The problem is that it restores everything except for the data. It shows an error What I'm left with is a brand new factory form Stock rom, with all my data lost. Please help
I think the backup is incomplete..I had this once before.

maybe but when I check data/media/ I find there all my old files. Is there any way possible for me to retrieve just some data. What I really want is viber/ whatsapp. I am in the us right now and I need to use them but they're tied to my european numbers.
