Hello there guys.
I've done a full backup with clockwork but if i try to restore it i get a error message about the boot image...i can't restore it. now i was able to restore system..data..and so on via advanced restore...i get no boot animation but the system is up an running. i can't get the wifi to work...what can i do now?
I used a clockwork 4.0.1.4 with root enabled..i flashed it whit Odin.
Thanks guys
forgot to mention I own a Galaxy S 2
Flash a clean stock rom as your backup is corrupt.

Same issue
I took a full backup with CWM (4.0.0.2) to test a Kitchen ROM. After getting it to work I wanted to switch back to my standard ROM (CF-Root KE7), but it failed with the boot image ("error flashing boot image").
If the backup was corrupt I would expect the MD5 to fail, but it didn't. Like the OP I was able to restore all the other items one by one, which now gives me a Frankenstein ROM: KE7 with the Kitchen-selected Kernel (Ninphetamine) and baseband (KH1).
I'll flash a new stock ROM with CF-Root again, but I am doubting CWM now.

Hello,
I got some strange errors:
When doing a backup with cwm recovery 4.0.1.4/5 some or all apps stored in .android_secure get deleted and i have to restore them with Titanium Backup!
And I've noticed, that the old cwm 4.0.0.2 gets opened when booting to recovery via rom manager (and pressing volume/home buttons)!
(Even manual installing the new recovery won't change this, except that with 4.0.0.2 backups work)
Why is the old recovery always restored? Oo
I'm running newest villian rom with that nymphentamine kernel in version 2.0.0.5
I came from villian rom 2.1 with the cf-root 4.1 kg3 kernel installed, but did a full wipe!
Hope you could understand my problem, my English isn't the best :-(
//EDIT:
Even flashing kernel with odin won't fix my problem!
Another try to explain my problem:
I flash a new cmw version with rom manager (or odin or video the old 4.0.0.2 cwm) and as soon as i restart the device the old recovery gets restored and i don't know why! there is no update.zip or something wich could install the old recovery again!
Please help me, i'm getting mad with this!

Error booting after messing with undervolt ex-tweaks settings.
After trying to flash with odin a recovery I got the msg Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
I have a custom rom (RR 4.1.2)
I have a backup from cwm
How can I restore this backup from odin, is it possible?
or
I have to install the rom again, install cwm and then restore the backup?
Please

Flash a stock based kernel like the Philz kernel you will get a recovery along with it, restore nandroid backup.

One more step, please!!!
Can someone tell me how to custom restore from my backup. My backup is 5 months old and don't want to totaly restore it with the recovery.
what options do I have to choose at the custom recovery screen?
1. The bootloader (I can enter into recovery mode but cannot boot normal). Am I gonna loose the recovery func? because when backed up didn't have it!
2. The kernel (To make the phone to boot into recovery I flashed the Philz kernel)
3. ex-tweaks start up values (This is what I mess, if I can restore the values from my backup everything will boot normal)
PLEASE!
Edit-
I try to restore the boot from my backup but error MD5 mismatch came up
Please help

How I fixed it:
After I was trying kernels from the date of my last backup, one worked. The only program until now missing was extweaks, so I first reset the profile from the recovery screen and then I installed it.
Everything works now
Hi all,
For backup purpose :angel:, I tried to upgrade to the latest Recovery_CWM_6.0.4.7_I9100.zip using Install Zip from an older CWM of my Samsung Galaxy S2.
And I'm in big trouble because after installing the clockworkmod recovery the phone won't boot anymore. It's stuck on "Galaxy SII - GT-I9100 - SAMSUNG" splash screen :crying:
The CWM works and gives this log:
I:Can't partition non mmcblk device: /devices/platform/dw_mmc//mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0
I can mount partition and accessed it from my pc.
I wiped cache and dalvic cache without more luck.
There is no vibration on boot either.
As my data aren't backup yet, I don't want to wip them out with some ROM. Did I miss something?
Any hint about what I should do to have the phone boot again would be greatly appreciated! :highfive:
Cheers
@GalaxyS2u did you flashed the right cwm/kernel for your rom since they are included in one boot.img? If you cannot flash an new rom anymore in the recovery or reflash the kernel /recovery then you need to flash an kernel/recovery in odin. Try an odin philz kernel if there is one else flash siyahkernel with odin.
And that partition thing is that even an valid partition ?
Backup your data first in recovery then try my things i suggested. I still think that the reason why it doesnt boot is because you flashed the wrong recovery/kernel.
Are you on stock btw? I suggest to try to flash philz kernel if you are on stock.
@wulsic
Thanks a lot for your hint :good:. That saves my precious! :victory:
I can manage to come back to my old CWM recovery with a flash of siyah with odin.
The new CWM works only with a new ROM and not with my old stock. With this experience, I am even able to upgrade to the KitKat version.
Viva this model and this community!
@GalaxyS2u glad to hear you figured it out I also had that problem when i flashed S2 first i soon found out that kernel/recovery were in one happy flashing?
Hello guys, i've recently got back to stock rom just to be sure to delete every mod done to my MB860, did this via RSD (A safe method tested even after with unlocked bootloader).
Thing is, when doing a backup of the rom via CWM says the next message:
error while making a backup image of /pds!
I've installed long ago the PDS Fix but after i've replaced my touchscreen i've rolled back to my stock backed PDS, but the CMW doesn't seems to be able to back up that partition, so CWM is a no go, and i have to roll to TWRP to backup, but i wish to know if there's a fix to this issue.
Thanks.
Hi all,
how can get back my stock boot recovery (or whatever)?
I Stocked my cooperve with odin and just flashed Rafael-Kernel.
Everything was fine.
Then I made only a Backup with CWM 5028 and 6053 and now in Bootloop.
What can I do to boot existing Stock-ROM again without loosing data.
I can´t understand that I couldnt make a Backup with CWM and now device is nearly dead.
Thanks and regards
