Hello, I'm trying restore, but it's saying "MD5 mismatch". Any ideas?
Restore what how when and why .
jje
I turn off mobile. Vol. Up + Home + Power. In CWM I choose Backup/Restore. I choose backup. When I choose it, it says "MD5 mismatch"

Are you using the exact same version of CWM recovery as you backed up with .
If no then you need to if yes try the advanced restore .
jje
adb shell
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-06-29.20.22.53
# rm nandroid.md5
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5
I use that - but put your backup details instead of whats there, obviously
I've got same CWM version and still don't working. Will help flash FW from backup?
BigMrB: Those commands are for CMD?
Adb Shell didn't help me. Any ideas?

tried it through terminal emulator and it doesn't work. it restores system but craps out at restoring data
any solution? can't backup/restore
I had this problem too. Turned out that I had spaces in the folder name. So if I renamed the folder name, change it to something without spaces.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to flash a new ROM but somehow backup your applications so that they are installed when you have finished flashing?
This is not dev related.
Check Titanium Backup.

You can try the hard way around:
# adb shell
# tar cf /sdcard/apps.tar /data/app/*.apk
restore:
# cd / ; tar xf /sdcard/apps.tar
(optional) # you can backup your user data:
# tar czpf /sdcard/data.tgz /data/data/*your.app.tuple*
for example:
# tar czpf /sdcard/google.talk.tgz /data/data/com.google.android.talk
Just make sure when you restore it, google talk has the same uid; if not, just chown the restored directory recursively with the new uid
restore same as above.
i like TAR method...will try it...
but i wud luv to have all my apps in a 'Apps.zip' and flash it after rom..
also flashable 'Data.zip' containing settings like wifi,sync and others...
can any one give me # commnads..
titanium backup
i cant get this app to work on cronos 1.5.1.
it always hangs on black screen saying "SU request" or "being loaded".
USB debugging is on and the "problems" button do download busybox was used also. but busybox stops downloading at 99%.
has anybody a hint for me?

I kinda screwed my efs folder.
I have no IMEI and my Baseband is Unkown.
I tried re-flashing a modem, re-flashing to stock, but nothing seems to work.
So I tried restoring my backup of the efs folder.
I have a backup of my efs folder in 2 forms:
efs_28Oct2011-2110.tar.gz
and
efs.autobackup.img
But I can't get any of these to work. I search all forums, but it just fail everytime.
Anyone has any advice? I really don't know how to apply these backups.
Firstly, be very careful with what you're doing!
You can restore your EFS .img with helcat's kernel companion tool. Download from this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182922
OR, in your EFS gz file, find and extract nv_data.bin and copy to your internal sdcard. Now in a terminal emulator or adb
cp /sdcard/nv_data.bin /efs/nv_data.bin
rm -rf /efs/nv_data.bin.md5
After restoring your IMEI using one of the methods above, your SIM might not work. If that should happen, remove the sim card, boot your phone and run this command
su
chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
Well the first way didn't work, actually it cleared the whole efs folder, I don't understand why.
Now i'm trying the second way, but it gives:
Can't create /efs/nv_data.bin : Read-only file system
Ok I managed to restore my complete efs folder, by using Root Explorer and the Tar.gz backup it all went fine, but I still don't have baseband: unkown and no IMEI, so I suppose it was al about the rom after all?

Well thx, I'm gonna try this, but I just realized that every time I reboot my device, my just restored efs with root explorer is empty again, think I have to fix this first?
This is exactly what happened too me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18026421
So when i try to restore it :
1)Using Hellcat's kTool .It gives the msg "efs restored.you may want to reboot now."
but when i check in /efs folder it is still empty.And after reboot there is only 1 file named cryptprop_essiv (1 byte) in it.
using terminal emulator
a)i type
Code:
su
busybox tar zxvf /sdcard/efs/efs-backup.tar.gz -C /
it says
Code:
efs/
efs/cryptprop_rebootMode
tar:can't remove old file efs/cryptprop_rebootMode:
read-only file system
#tar:write: Broken pipe
then when i try the above after mounting /efs as r/w in root explorer,then this happens
Code:
efs/
efs/cryptprop_rebootMode
efs/cryptprop_onetimeboot
efs/cryptprop_securewipedata
efs/.files/

After this all files get back in /efs,but after i reboot.same problem occurs.no imei.Only 1 file present in folder
cryptprop_essiv
b)when i try to use this method
Code:
su
busybox umount /efs
dd if=/sdcard/efs.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 bs=4096
it says
Code:
umount:can't umount /efs:Invalid argument
and i just did a little experiment.i just copied a small random file in the efs folder.after i reboot it is gone and replaced by that cryptprop_essiv file.
even if i delete this file and reboot it comes back again.

But I can't figure out how he fixed it, just doing whats said there isn't working.
To restore your EFS from your tar.gz file the commands are as following:
Code:
su
umount /efs
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /efs
busybox tar zxvf /sdcard/efs_28Oct2011-2110.tar.gz -C /
reboot
Not sure about how to restore your img file though but the tar.gz file should work.
Wow, out of the blue, after I tried every and really every way to restore it, your code just works! HERO! Thx
Now I'm sure my efs folder is fine and not corrupt, but still it gives
IMEI (nothing)
Baseband: Unknown
And it won't recognize my sim.
What is the problem here?
i'm on clockworkmod 5.0.2.3, my device is galaxy tab 10.1 P7510. i backup it with Titanium Backup. i've done CWM backup, i do know the CWM's backup file is sdcard/clockworkmod, but i can't delete it, either on my tablet or computer!! i've tried ES file and RE, nothing changes,,,,and the CWM file is as large as 1G, but i can't see anything in it! is that a new function of 5.0.2.3, to hide and protect its file? i've format the whole SDcard on my computer, and everything's gone, BUT the CLOCKWORKMOD file!!!!!! i'm crazy!!!!!

try makeing a new backup file in recovery as this should overright the last one
the file is probably corrupt
or using root explorer find the file and check the that folder is R/W
i dnt know if you can doo this on the sd card
You should be able to delete any file on the "SD card". Personally, although I use titanium backup as a great tool, CWM's backup is so easy and reliable for me.
thank u but it doesn't work. new backup changes nothing but make it biger, it seems that i can delete it by RE, but if i refresh i appears again. is there any way to format?

You can rename and delete backups with the rom manager app from the market.
http://market.android.com/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager
while in recovery:
adb shell mount /data
adb shell rm -r /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/DATED_FOLDER
Are you talking about the nandroid backup? If so, open the CWM recovery and the option to delete backups is there...
Also, you do realize that the CWM backup is not the same thing as the titanium backup, right? CWM backup is the whole system; titanium is just apps and settings...
got the same problem and tried a lot

i've tried to delete the backups in rom manager, but still can't and was told error occured while deleting.
and i tried to remove them in adb shell, rm command, and it says permission denied.
Code:
[email protected]:/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup # rm -r 2005-06-01.07.50.08
rm -r 2005-06-01.07.50.08

In recovery (CWM) or android? Try with the -f switch (rm -rf), and do it in recovery from your PC (don't forget to mount the partition).
BTW, I can delete cwm backups in android with Root Explorer without problem.

sure about that, i got the recovery from clockworkmod.com.
i formatted it in windows, and everything was deleted but the clockworkmod folder! ghostly exist
something i just thought.. i'm using windows 7, when the tablet connect to my laptop, windows recognize it as a portable device. it's special i guess. is there any way to let it be removable disk?

One way is, in cwm, select "mount and storage" > "mount /data"
The other way is with adb (you're going to use it any way)
Code:
adb root
Code:
adb shell
Code:
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /data
If you keep getting the same error, try deleting everything inside the backup directory, I mean the 2005-06-01.07.50.08 directory.
Code:
cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2005-06-01.07.50.08
Inside the directory (be 100% sure to be in 2005-06-01.07.50.08 or you're going to delete something important. Always be careful when using the rm -rf * command)
Code:
rm -rf *
Or in one line
Code:
rm -rf /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2005-06-01.07.50.08/*
Then, delete the directory:
Code:
rmdir /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2005-06-01.07.50.08/
problem solved! thanks MapleSyrup
really thanks MapleSyrup! i executed all commands after normally powerup.
i just did them in cmw mode, all worked!
when normally powerup, in adb shell, command line prompt start with
Code:
[email protected]:/ #
in cmw(recovery) mode, it changes to
Code:
~ #
and no 'Permission denied' anymore when execute rm
i'm not English actually, literal words may be incorrect, hope readers could get it.
thanks sincerely. i've spent almost half day on the issue, you cant imagine how happy i am now, ha

I'm a little more of a newb here, and Don't understand the above stuff. I'm having the exact same issue.
ROM Manager basically just messed up my phone to the point that I can't delete backups in clockworkmod. Also the backups are showing 0 bytes in size even though they've taken up 3 gigs on my SDCard
I Got ROM manager to install the latest CWM, which is great. I Then was trying it out, and noticed you can do a backup right from it. It Loads CWM and performs a normal Nandroid backup.
Here is the issue, It shows that it has take up the space on my SDCard, but the folder contents are empty in clockworkmod/backups
Also, I can't delete them at all. I Tried ES Explorer and nothing worked. Said denied.
If u get a md5 mismatch error During a restore thing type via command promt ( ADB iinstalled)
adb shell
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-06-29.20.22.53(THE name of your backup stored in /clockworkmod/backup )
# rm nandroid.md5
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5
awesome idea

Not a stupid question But the answer is yes (or at least it should be)
Ah, OK. Thanks!
EDIT: Ok, yet another possibly stupid question! Can I run this through a terminal on the phone, or do I need to do this through a command prompt on the computer?
EDIT 2: Er, I just looked at my recovery that I have the md5 error for. There's nothing in the backup folder! It's empty! Like, crap! Back when I made the backup, the recovery said it backed up successfully. I even recovered using that backup once before. Is this normal? Or is there something jacked up here?
great job ..well done

Howdy mate.... I stumbled upon this thread by accident, so I don't have the issue you experienced, but might I suggest that you explain how you fixed your issue, or post a link to the pertinent info?
That way if someone with the same problem comes up here it won't be a dead-end and there will be a solution attached to this thread, making it useful.
Share the knowledge
yeah, what did you do???
i have experienced that too.. and havent got the answer.. so the only thing i could do was just restore my other backup but was a month after the latest backup.. how did you fix it?
