Restoring data...
now it is stuck on restoring data...
what should i do now?
until now it's 50 mins it stopped.
please help me !!!
what to do??
Oh boy, that sounds dangerous. You could wait it out. If it does not continue, hold the power-button for 10 seconds (or just pop the battery) and try getting back into recovery. If that doesn't work then I don't know if a USB Jig might help you.

could you say correct setting for mounts and storage of recovery.
i don't think as you cause i can go to recovery and download mode easily.
when i mount SD card ,restored backup successfully but when reboot it played boot animation then not go homescreen.
another question how to put new rom in my SD card in recovery?
i pulled out battery and repeat restore proccess but nothing happend
Recovery
Mounts and storage
Format Data Cache System only NOT SD CARD.
Follow that with your Nandroid restore .
That fails as above but follow with a stock rom flash instead of restore .

i managed successfully to restore,but not full restore ,in advanced restore i choose one by one and skip restore data.now my phone is good.would like to know what kind of data i missed and what does do restoe data exactly?

ok guys, here we are again.. you're wanting to backup your phone for if you want to try a test rom, or just to have a backup in case something goes wrong. this tut will show you how! I will also explain how to restore your phone to a backup you've previously made. it is also possible to backup/restore using rom manager but this is the harder way.. not too hard once you figure it out, but thats all opinion
Pre Requirements:
1.) be rooted
2.) have clockwork recovery installed
3.) not a necessity, but it DEFINITELY helps to have the engineering build installed at least once
BACKUP STEPS:
1.) boot into clockwork recovery mode
2.) scroll down to nandroid and select
3.) click backup
4.) it will now automatically backup your ENTIRE PHONE.. this includes your contacts, messages, emails, everything you have on the phone prior to booting into recovery. you will see a yellow bar at the bottom that shows progress
5.) REBOOT!
6.) there is no step 6... you're done
RESTORE STEPS:
1.)boot into clockwork recovery mode
2.) scroll down to nandroid and select
3.) scroll down to restore and select
4.) scroll to your desired restore nandroid and select
5.) scroll to yes and select
6.) it will now auto restore your backup and everything in it. when done it will tell you DONE!
7.) reboot and you're done!
well there ya go guys, one (two?) more tut(s) done and have fun be safe and remember to wipe if you're ever scared you have a boot loop
I actually do have a specific question about these nandroid backups. If I backup, then flash a "updated" ROM (update to an existing one already installed), and THEN do a restore, does the restore take me back to the previous version of the ROM? I've never used the nandroid backups as I usually never have a need to.
the restore takes your phone back to exactly how it was when you performed the backup
Gotcha, so if you backup, wipe, and then update a ROM, you cannot expect to be able to use your nandroid backup to restore anything you had previously, unless you wanted to go back to the ROMs previous version... gotcha.
where are these backups stored?
I think it's /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/[BackupDate]/
is it safe to remove them from the sdcard & store for safekeeping until needed & replace in same location?
yep, sure is!
Is it necessary to perform a wipe before restoring, if you currently have a different ROM than what is being restored? Or does nandroid wipe for you?

no, nandroid doesnt wipe for you. i suggest always wiping if you're changing roms
hi im kinda new to this, but I rooted my slide using the tuts from droiddog.com and here. Got mostly everything working but when I try to backup my current rom clockwork crashes and it doesn't take me to recovery and just reboots the phone. Ive tried clearing the download cashe and downloading an older recovery but nothing seems to work. I basically cant boot into recovery to make backups or flash any roms. any suggestions on what else I could try.
I gave this explination of a nandroid to a friend of mine today. It will act like a time machine and put your device back exactly as it was when you did the backup. Now if you need an explination like that, you realy should not be messing with your phone that way.
freeze
hi
i have a problem. when i try to restore my backup. everything looks fine. but when restoring finish and reboot my phone screen is freezing on htc logo. what can i do?
sorry for my bad english!
Just wait it takes a while to boot sometimes, treat it like you would treat a new ROM being flashed.
i need to wipe data/factory reset or?
ok
i wipe data.. restore backup from nandroid.. reboot phone and i waiting almost 30 min and screen still show only htc logo..
I have copied the nandroid backups on my SD card

Hello,
I have a question about Nandroid backups using CWM...I read on some forum that...the backup and the installed version of CWM recovery should match to make it work..I.e If I took the backup using CWM version 5.0.0.0 I have to use the same CWM recovery version to restore the ROM and I can not restore nandroid backup using the later version lets say 5.0.1.5 of CWM...is it true?
Thanks..
I kinda doubt that. Itd be much more likely that a nandroid created by 5.0 couldnt be used by an earlier version. I doubt that is true either, just more likely than the other way around.
Nothing wrong with waiting for better confirmation than mine, but if it were an issue I think wed have heard a lot more about it by now.

I completely bricked my phone. i was rolling on fr008 and it was working fine. i nandroid packuped, then tried cyanogenmods 6.1.1... it's now bricked and whenever i do a nandroid backup it stays on the loading screen... help anyone?
Can you get into clockwork mod? If so, do a data wipe/factory reset, then clear cache, then on advanced menu clear dalvik cache. Then reinstall latest FR008ddx

So I am assuming you are able to get into recovery? If so please try to get into the advanced menu and do a "wipe dalvik cache". Next, backup 1 menu and wipe your cache partition and user data, then try and boot your phone. When switching from the FR series to CM or vice versa you need to wipe dalvik and regular cache plus user data. Also when you try and flash roms make sure your phone is not plugged in, clockwork recovery does not work the same when your phone is plugged in. If you flashed CM while your phone was plugged in then you need to attempt to flash again with your phone unplugged.
Thanks guys, that really helped, ill try it know
Thanks for the help guys, but do you know how to get my nandroid backup to work? because its factory reset, and everytime i try to do a nandroid backup i have to repeat this process... help again?

Forget the nandroid backup its corrupt

What do you mean it's factory reset? If you restored your phone back to stock I don't believe you can use nandroid. You should be in clockwork recovery to use nandroid. The factory reset/data wipe from recovery does not bother nandroid in any way that I am aware of. Are you trying to restore a nandroid backup?
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
Eh, oh well, thanks for the help guys, ill start moving everything back....
Dont use clockwork recovery when plugged into your computer, thats the only conclusion i can come up with for why your nanodroid backup is corrupt...
Signatures are fancy.
Yeah... make sure you're unplugged while you're doing this and be sure to wipe the cache as mentioned above. You can then put a rom on your SD and flash again, then go back and flash your favorite rom or go back to factory.
cant stress it enough, read the install instructions and ALWAYS wipe before flashing(or is that flushing? j/k)
anyway, you should be able to Nandroid Restore. and the previous posters were right, the only way to enter recovery properly is with the phone unplugged, then power on holding the volume down key, select recovery and Bingo!!
let us know how you made out
Thanks guys, got everything up and running again, and thanks for the instructions

Backup data first if phone is working .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
Phone will no longer boot as it has no firmware you just wiped the lot .
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
jje
First of all root your phone and boot to recovery.
1.Go to "Advanced" and wipe Battery Stats.
2.Go back and go to "Mounts and Storage" and format System,Cache and Data
3.Go back wipe Cache Partition and do a factort reset and reboot your phone.
Your phone wont go past the boot logo so after 1min pull the battery,wait 20sec,put it back in and boot into download mode.Now flash a firmware or your choice and it will be like a factory new phone.
oke first how do do a clean slade ,why backup data I don't want anything,mount what does that mean

If the basics are beyond your understanding i cannot help .
If you format phone via dial *2767*3855#
or *#*#4636#*#*
And format sd card via Windows PC usb mass storage .

1.Clean Slate means wiping everything,back to zero.
2.Do a backup if you want to save something or if something goes wrong you can get your phone back via recovery mode.If you dont want to save anything then dont do a backup.
3.Things like Mounts and Storage you will see in the recovery menu.To get to the recovery menu you need to be rooted first the hold Power+Volume up+Home buttom at the same time untill a menu pops up.
Follow my ealier post and your will be fine.If not PM me.
Just as the title says I have an OG tablet. With or without the sd card in it constantly reboots back to CWM recovery v 5.5.0.4. I hit reboot system now and it wont stop going to recovery. Any tips? I have CM7 installed and this is the first time this has ever happened.
Sounds like your boot.img is screwed. You need to restore a backup or reflash cm7.
I've tried reinstalling CM7 several times. t keeps booting into CWM. I tried a backup as well. I have no idea what to do now.
How do I restore my boot.img if I can only get into CWM?

boot.img is one of the backups of a nandroid backup
perhaps try albert's recovery?
I tried this one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402190 And It won't work. The files were copied correctly. But it wont boot it up. IS there another way to jsut restore back to factory settings to do it over again?
Can you still boot into recovery? Try this if you can
First try a a wipe data factory reset , wipe cache and advanced > wipe dalvik cache if that does not fix it then try reflashing a working tested backup that you have IF you have made one (RULE OF GOLD) if you don't have one then just do the wipes and flash CM7 again.
Report back!

Yes I can still get into recovery, in fact that all I can do. But now I get E: Can't mount /sdcard it just started doing this. It's not finding the backup from alberts file
You put the backup on your external sd card I take it? Try pulling the card out and putting it back in again. Alternatively, power off via power button + n and then boot manually into recovery.
Yes on my external SD card. I tried taking it out and putting it back it. I accidently partitoned the card so it read it fine but it. i tried adb reboot recovery aswell Ok it is reading the SD card fine now... but not finding the backup... It found it once. and said that the Md5sum didnt match then i rebooted it and recopied it then it as soon as i hit restore to look for a restore it rebooted...
While doing a backup of the NT7 I got this error " E: Format_volume: make_ext4fs failed on /dev/block/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/by-name/system"
Im still stuck booting into recovery will redokng the paritions fix it

according to that error you posted it looks like one of your major partitions is broken. try looking up one of the repartition threads in the dev section. good luck.

Yep fixed it thank you for the advice.
Is USB supposed to be plugged in?
Ok, I came into the same situation, and I did the factory wipe, and all that good jazz. Now when I reboot it, do I unplug the nook tablet, or do I leave it plugged in to the computer or outlet?

doesn't really matter, leave it plugged in so your nook tablet doesn't shut off during the process.. its always good to have a power source when troubleshooting problems lol
Hello guys!
Today i installed ClockworkMod Touch recovery and installed SuperNexus 2.0 Build 4 Rom , the whole process took less than 5 minutes. But before i installed SuperNexus i did a "Nandroid?" backup which went fine and took lots of space xD Anyway i proceeded with SuperNexus and it installed fine and played with the rom for a few hours ... i decided to restore the backup so my whatsapp and all that stuff comes back .. i didnt know that it'll restore system too! Ofcourse the phone went on a bootloop so i went to CWM and wiped data/factory reset and the phone booted with Stock 4.1.2 and the phone is kinda slow at the first boot ... now i dont really know what to do :/ The nandroid backup is large and im afraid the SuperNexus rom wont fit and it'll cause errors n all xD Im really stuck at this point , should i repeat installing SuperNexus?
EDIT: I cleared 4.6GB of space , what to do next?
the backup restore shouldn't have caused a bootloop, that's weird.
it restores everything - system and data. so if you want to keep the data when switching ROMs, use Titanium backup or something if the sort. try restoring again. if it fails, try a custom restore of /data

Im not sure if its a bootloop , it keeps restarting boot animation after 1min , i fixed it anyway by wipe data/factory reset option thru recovery and its on stock now booting fine , Shall i flash SuperNexus again normally ? Other than wipe data/factory reset is there anything else to do ?
I mean, if you don't care about your data being lost - then sure
Yeah no probs , contacts on sim and pic's and movies on sd card , Ill just have to redownload my games and all Ill charge my phone then proceed , thanks One more question. Since I installed SuperNexus before does it have system files that I need to delete? Or wipe data/factory reset will cover it?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
no, a data wipe will do.
Success Thanks for the help xD I learned a lesson Ill use titanium backup from now on
