CWM Nandroid backup normal/advanced? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hi I just installed Entropys newest Daily Driver kernel, and in CWM there is a Nandroid backup where is says advanced. Is it better to make the advanced recovery or just the regular? And what is the difference? Thanks.

Are you trying make a back up or restore from one?

Make the advanced recovery or just the regular say what ?!?
..the only thing you want to do in advanced is wipe dalvik cache. Perform nandroid backups I'm the main menu of recovery where it says backup/restore.

from all the guides here that i read so far mentions nothing about advanced nandroid back up. the only time that i read something about going in to an advanced setting in cwm was to wipe davlik cache so i would imagine regular would be fine.

Im not sure if i got what you mean but so far this is what i got:
1. You did a nandroid backup of your old rom (CWM 4)
2. You flashed the Cyanogenmod Stable and everything went well, the Cyanogen worked fine.
3. You did a Cyanogenmod Stable nandroid backup (cwm 5)
4. You restored the old rom (working) from the nandroid backup
5. You wanted to restore Cyanogenmod nandroid backup but you cant'.
So far i discovered CWM 5 can restore old backups (from cwm 4) but when you are in cwm 4, you cant find anymore backups done with cwm 5.
That's the problem is it?
It's just because, you cant resetore a cwm 5 backup, when you go back to cwm 4

Try to update cmw recovery to the latest one. Just update it threw rom manager and make sure you pick the right phone and carrier in the list.
I tried doing so,bur i only get like 7 phones from that list

You'll need to flash CM9 first, then the options will show up. Its looking for a specific name in your build.prop, and CM9 or AOKP should get it to show up.
Tried doing cm9 does not work also

after you flash CWM recovery.
did you wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache?
wiping those before flashing new rom usually solve the problem.
i usually wipe data/factory reset too but doesn't require
i suggest you back up your un-corrupted efs folder contain your IMEI first before you flash anything.
dont be like me. =)

What root method did you use? Rom manager does not play well with many cwm included in kernels, like cf root. Better use cwm and uninstall rom manager to check if that's the case

Try changing kernel to one with cwm like siyah(ICS) or speed mod(GB) then create a backup from recovery? If you do change kernel remember to wipe cache and dalvik cache!

Are you on ice cream sandwich or gingerbread? And cache and dalvik cache can be wiped from recovery:
In recover it should say 'wipe cache partition' and then go to advanced and select wipe cache partition.

Probably a corrupted sdcard, save important files to the pc and format the card from the phone. Place the files back, see if you are rooted and if not reroot with CF-Root and try again. Do not superwipe this time.Just do data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache and format system and data in mounts and storage.
Hello, sorry for reviving this old thread, but it seems that this would be a logical place to ask if it's recommended to do a super wipe before every non stock ROM flash.

Why do you want to restore your last ROM when you're going to flash CM again??
Please explain more clearly what ROM you are on now, and what you want to do.

Did you make a nandroid bkup before you flashed cm? If not flash stock with odin or flash a custom 4.1.2 based rom through recovery

I have a Nandroid backup before I flashed to CM10.1. Can I just reboot to recovery and restore my jelly bean back up?
Thanks!
Yep as long as you have the preload backed up it will restore
Hi guys, I read on this forum that, in order to do a succesfull restore of nandroid, the restore should be done with the same version of CWM.. but when I flash CM, it overwrite my CWM (6.0.3.7) with the version included in the CM.. so how can I be sure that i can restore from cyano?
I'm sorry if this is a too noob question, but I'm going to do my first flash of a custom rom.. and I want to be sure I can go back!!

If you have made a Bk up of you're rom with v6.0.3.7 then CM cwm will restore it. BUT do you have a Bk up of you're preload?? If not it won't restore. What rom/firmwear are you on?

Hi, thank you for your answer! I am on stock 4.1.2 firmware.. XLSW.. with Philz recovery.. i clicked on "backup preload" in recovery, so I think I had preload in my backup!
Sorry, but another question have just come out: this is also true with the CM11? I heard it needs another version of CWM (6.0.4.x)..
You can look at at you're nandroid in you're sd card to see if it's bked up. Best thing to do to get cm11 is look at Android development and then look for neatrom 4.4.2 and flash the recovery in the first post then REBOOT RECOVERY and then do the wipes and flash rom/gapps in that recovery. To restore you're nandroid just flash philz kernel and then REBOOT RECOVERY! Once you're Bk in philz cwn do the wipes and restore you're nand.

So, to upgrade to KK, I should flash a compatible recovery and then, without trying booting the system, flash the KK rom.. and then to restore my JB nandroid I should flash the philz and, again rebooting directly in recovery, do the restore..
For CM 10.1 to JB I should do nothing instead.. just restore the nandroid from CM recovery.. I understood right?
That's right. Always do the format of system, data, cache and preload before restoring a nand.

Ok.. I thought there was no need of wipes before a restore, because it overwrites everything.. but I was wrong!
Thank you very much for your support!! :good:
