[Q] Alternatives to Nandriod Backup? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys,
Any idea, if we have any Alternatives to Nandriod Backup?
Drawbacks of Nandriod Backup as I know:
1. It does not backup EFS binary/image which contains IMEI details
2. It does not backup Modem binary/image which is useful to camp to the networks
FYI: I know there are tools like EFS Pro and kTool to backup EFS
I wonder if there is any tool which can dump my entire ROM's partition on to sdcard "as it is" and re-storable using CWM.

[Q] Backup imei or efs prior to flashing

In addition to backing up the entire system, I'd like to be able to back the imei info separately like the efs directory on my captivate before flashing. Any idea what I should do to backup those info? Thanks!
Unnecessary. This isn't Samsung so flashing custom firmware won't delete your imei.

You never know when an EFS backup may be needed. There have already users with messed up devices where an EFS backup would have saved the phone.

[Q] How to restore EFS from folder backup?

Hi, I'm having troubles restoring the EFS folder from a 'copy & paste' backup of it. I've seen lots of tutorials but with 'specific tools' backups that creates a .img, or others just using the file explorer but did not t work. So the question is how to restore the EFS from a backup of the entire folder?. I also had tried flashing the efs partition with heimdall but I don't know how to create a .img from the /efs backup. Thanks in advance :good:

[Q] How to backup efs?

Hi
1. How can I backup the efs partition with TWRP v2.7.1.0 that is already installed on my xt1022?
If I boot to TWRP recovery, touch the backup icon, so I get only the possibility to backup:
[x]System
[x]Data
Cache
[x]Boot
But I don't get the choice for efs, like there is one I saw on pictures (hyperlinks are not allowed for new xda users) an older TWRP version then mine for an other smartphone.
2. How can I backup the efs partition with an dd linux command - in an root adb (root already activated)?
3. How can I then restore this efs partition in case of an efs disaster?
Thanks in advance!
Use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.partitions
It automatically highlights appropriate partitions. Restore functionality is also available.
