I know about Titanium, just to start with.
My question is about backup files using CWM, if I install a new rom and restore my system/cache/data will the phone work normally after that?
My main goal is to keep my installed apps as they are on the new ROM, so i guess data is the only thing i need to backup by right?
Thanks in advance!
Backup system + data using titanium backup.
Also backup current rom using cwm incase anything goes wrong while flashing new rom.
After u instal new rom instal titanium backup and restore.

Aha, so titanium does all the work? Thanks!
I have run a search and surprisingly did not find my particular question..
How do I make a backup (image?) of my phone as it stands now...
I flashed a rom, everything is working to my liking and have backed up all my apps and settings via TB.
Is it possible to have a backup sitting on my PC that I can just flash with Odin or CWM that will restore my phone to how it is right now? Similar to a PC image?
Thanks in advance!

Just make a nandroid backup using cwm and copy those backup files located in "clockworkmod " folder in SD card to your PC. Whenever you need to restore it back just copy back the files to.the same location and restore it via cwm.

Can you word the question differently?
I have never zipped my file. i just use the restore option from CWM.

Just boot into cwm and go to restore.
Correct, you don't need to do anything extra to nandroid backups, they are formatted to just be used as is.
Hi,
I done a nandroid backup and then tried to restore it but every time it tries to restore the data it says it's corrupt, is there another way that I can extract the data from it? I tried titanium backup the pro version which I am new to I tried the nandroid option but it forced closed when I selected the nandroid

Hello everyone,I want to upgrade CM 10.1 but is it possible to back up my all apps or everything in phone now.After I jump CM I want to use my phone like previous.As short as I dont want to loose my info.Thanks.
Titanium backup for your apps and data, sms backup for your texts. Sync contacts to google, call log, there's an app for that as well but can't remeber the name.
Stuff on the external sd can be left as it is, make sure you back up any photos etc from your internal sd.
Wipe everything when you're installing cm and everything should be there

Cwm is backup full rom + apps + data
You can't restore it
Just use titanium backup
