Just wanted to know if I install a new firmware ( Im currently running KS2 and I think there should be a newer one out there who offers better battery life or something) and after that something doesnt go as I expected, can I do a backup from recovery and restore the whole configuration that I was using including the firmware/baseband ( Im a little bit confused about this )
Thank you

Really? Whenever i tried to restore firmware via CWM4/5 it never works. Works great for all ext4 format ROM's though.

Ive got an ext4 partition and CM7 rom , I guess I will try it
If you restore stock you need to flash stock recovery and wipe cache + factory reset

I did it with CWM 4.0.0.9. First of all I did a complete backup, then flashed a stock rom through ODIN. It didn't work as I expected so I restored the phone with the backup I did previously and now it is as before flashing.
If you want to restore dtock rom from cwm
You need these things
Cf root
Ext4 manager
And then insall cf root
Convert system to ext4 then make backupp of stoc rom
And then you wont have problems with restoring stock roms from cwm

Boot back into recovery, wipe phone, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, restore stock ROM again.
Should work ok now...I hope!

Then I have no idea buddy. I encountered the same problem when I flashed CM7.1 and tried to restore stock firmware. I gave up in the end but I was led to believe that wiping both caches would alleviate the problem. Hopefully one of the developers will read this and have a solution. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance. Good luck =]

it's not possible to flash back stock rom backup after flashing a cyanogen.
its because CM7 coverts your file system from RFS to ext4 which your stock rom is incapable of.
Try to use CF-Root found on android development section, convert your file system back to RFS using Ext4 Manager (which you can find after flashing CF-root) then flash back your stock back up. This should be work.
ok...still waiting for other comments...

Use english kabayan. For others to understand too..
Try to flash first Sangingerace*Lite (depending what FW version you are using). I believe you can convert your file system with patch provided on that thread.
The simplest way is flashing a full package firmware using ODIN, then flash cwm and restore you backup.
Hey bro, I think the problem might be that while backing up from cwm your backup might have been crammed into your sd card due to lack of space. This happened to me also I was stuck at the SGA splash screen. So I tried clearing caches and wiping the phone to no avail.
But as my last resort I just flashed my phone with CORRECT firmware through ODIN. hope I helped!
Please update me.

I have a Nandroid back up of stock rom, i am now using CM 7.1, how do i restore my stock rom? When i just boot into cwm and restore the back up, it just gets stuck at the boot logo. What do i do? Is there a procedure? Please reply asap
Restore doesn't convert you system partitions to rfs (CM have it in ext4, and stock roms doesn't support it). Flash a mulit-package firmware via ODIN, then flash CWM and restore you backup.
If you want to restore stock rom from cwm backupp use these
Cf root kernel
Ext4 manager
Then when cf root is flashed
Use ext4 manager on stoc rom to convert system to ext4
Then when done make backupp
And
Then it works

Some time ago I converted ext42rfs (by Chris41g for the Epic 4g) for the galaxy ace, I never tested it. Install the zip through CWM.
I repeat, I never tested it, so it might not work.
(no backup) It formats everything to rfs (use this if you are going to restore a backup in cwm) : http://mir.cr/JAVTQDRJ
(backup) It backs up everything, formats to rfs and restores the backup (this is if you are on a stock rom and converted to ext4 and want to return to rfs): http://mir.cr/Q2CNG6JD
Report back if it works please.

Stock rom with stock kernel doesn't , but Stock rom with custom kernel does.

Thats why i said 'cf root kernel'
It supports ext4
Or try in cm7 to convert it to rfs

Now to get CF root kernel, i have to go back to stock rom isnt it?
Was using stock 2.3.3 but flashed 2.3.6 KPP. Played around with a few CM7 roms and decided to go back to stock. Heard had to flash stock first (due to stock not having ext4) so flashed the closest one i could find on samfirmware. Ran the CWM backup and this presents two issues:-
1) Kies says cannot use this device. Is this because it is detecting the baseband from the one file package i flashed?
2) Trying to install from market and it says cannot install to the chosen storage.
Anyone know what might have happened.
(currently on ICS FINAL and loving it but my stepson wants this phone after me so thought would put back on stock when he gets it)
You should've used stock recovery to format all partitions back to rfs
OR
You could flash CF-ROOT and the.problems will be gone

Like I wrote in that post, I never tested it and if you try it and it works please reply.
New links: (no backup, don't reboot after. Restore your CWM Backup.) http://mir.cr/JAVTQDRJ // (backup) http://mir.cr/Q2CNG6JD
Your /cache still in ext4 and ext4 filesystem not supported by stock kernel. Flash CF-Root and use ext4 Manager to check the whole filesystem type. DXKT7/XWKT7.BLACKHAWK is a near stock firmware, you can try it
Thanks Guy's for the replies. Once filesystem is back to normal and I restore the backup of my stock rom will all be good with kies?

I had a problem somewhat like this. Have you wiped ALL kinds of memory? If not do so. That solved my problem.
Press Thanks if this helped/worked for you.

I think so ... wait wait there's another thing u could do
In recovery mode ..go to backup/restore ---advanced restore ..and try to restore "android/ data " or whatever data files present ONLY ..see if this helps otherwise Odin is ur biatch
EDIT: I went in my recovery mode to see the options well u click on advanced restore and then " restore data" ... cheers
Your solution
I know one another method.
U should reinstall another rom wich cointais the APK ext4 in order to transform ur filesystem from etx4 to rfs.
Let it work, it will take several minutes, and then, ur system will be again rfs.
U should then go to recovery, and restore without any previous wipes your stock nandroid backup.
When the restoring has ended, reboot normally ur phone and u will have ur stcok rom as like as u did ur backup.
Enjoy!!
