Did you start the backup from the app itself? md5 checksum mismatches happen a lot when you do... nandroid backups should ALWAYS be done via the recovery menu to avoid this problem. I'm afraid md5 checksum errors are non-recoverable, but do not take my word for granted
As for the titanium backups, check the /extSdcard/data/com.keramidas.titaniumbackup folder is there and has not been moved or modified in some way (remember titanium backs up to the internal phone memory by default, if you flashed another ROM and didnt backup this folder the backups wont be able to be restored)

[Q] md5 mismatch

Hi guys,
I know there are several threads on this topic, but no solution worked for me.
Yesterday I made a nandroid backup and everything went fine. Than I installed MiniCMSandwich, which works very great. But then I wanted to restore my old backup and got a md5 mismatch.
I tried this and this method, but they didn't work.
In my backup folder are only these files:
data.yassf2.img
system.yassf2.img
.android_secure.vfat.tar
There is no nandroid.md5 or any other file
What have I got to do to fix my nandroid backup?
By the way, I didn't rename it!
Please help

Ok Terminal Emulator method worked after trying a bit, but now I've got another problem! I created a new thread for that
You could have made new backup and replace the data and system stuff...? Or it might not work?
OK could you explain that pls? What exactley have I got to do.
I tried to take system and cache out of another backup before and put it in the (bricked) backup folder instead of the system and cache of bricked up. Then I tried the terminal method again, but theres md5 mismatch!
What have I got to do?
But... if you have an older backup, couldn't you just restore that one? Just saying.......

Yes I restored it and it works fine, but that was a backup immediatly after the ics update and all apps installed. There are no settings from apps, etc. Can I restore Data and Apps out of my old Backup? Is there an App?
What I can say for sure is that you cannot "mix" files from different nandroid, and that's because of the md5 checksum itself. If you mix the files, you'll always get an error.
I'm sorry, but I don't know if there's a way to "extrapolate" your apps and settings from another nandroid. Think you'll have to reinstall all your apps
Titanium Backup Pro can extract apps with data from Nandroid backup.

Q: When doing wipe is there way to backup all apps and settings and then restore

I tried checking guides and using search but found nothing, this may be stupid question but when trying new rom or patching newer version of rom which requires wipe all things are reset and apps are gone. So is there program to save settings and all the apps and then after wipe restore them so everything would be like before wiping?

Yes, you can make a Nandroid backup "it saves all setting apps" you installed even The alarm clock that you setted to go to school:
1- Go to CWM" Clockworkmod Recovery menu"
2- Backup and Restore
3- and u will have a bunch of choices (Backup to internal or External SDcard) (Restore from internal or external sdcard)
after you choose wait for the device to complete backup and then reboot, the next time you want everything as it was perfectly you just have to restore the Nandroid backup that you made.
Important : DONT EVER CHANGE NANDROID BACK FOLDER NAME because MD5 checksum recognize only the folder name that was created during the backup.
Hope this helps !

Thanks alot! I always though that cwm's backup and restore was for ROM
Should i advanced restore and restore data only, wont it restore the whole "older" rom too if you make complete restore?
Using nandroid backups to restore data after flashing is a bad way to do so, because it does exactly that - restores all the apps and settings, which essentially equals to a no-wipe. Use Titanium Backup and backup only user apps

Okay, thanks. Did not know that. So i can backup my apps with Titanium but what about all the settings? Is there method to back them up? I use Apex launcher so it does have backup but those system settings, anyway to back those up?

Titanium backup backups apps+settings, so u wont lose any progress on games, even facebook and twitter remain all the same, no need to log back in after restoring the apps. And for your launcher, im using nova launcher and in settings i can make a backup of my homescreens etc. So if i do a full wipe i restore my apps with TB and the nova launcher backup and everything is back to as it was before the wipe! Hope this helps

Restoring SMS stalls boot

So I just wiped and installed a new rom, now when I try and restore my backup in titanium "messaging 4.2.1-en...(SMS/MMS PREFS)" and I reboot it fails to restart and gets stuck at the loading screen, so I have to re-wipe and start again.
Is there any other way I can restore my SMS? Something strange is going on here seeing as it's still a 4.2.1 ROM!
Thanks

First what version of TWRP you have ?
Second read this little thing from droidviews : http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-backup-and-restore-efs-data-on-nexus-5/
" 1.Boot your phone into recovery mode.
2.Tap the “Backup” button.
3.Then check the EFS option in the list.
4.Finally, swipe the confirmation slider.
5.Reboot the device.
6.To recover the lost EFS , you can select “Restore” option next time. "

I'm sure I backed up efs when I made the backup because the efs folder is there and has a tar file.If I restored the backup would that restore efs too ? if so,twrp won't display internal SD content when I choose restore for some reason...

Try moving your backup folder in internal storage then restore your efs if this is possible
