[Q] Restoring backups - HTC Desire X

Hi guys,
I'm one of the fools that updated to JB the moment it came out. Now, i made a stock nandroid backup with TWRP before the update. Is there any way of restoring it? Flashing the files manually using fastboot doesn't work. Since there is no TWRP for JB hboot, anyone know if i can restore it?

You can extract the system.ext4.win from your TWRP backup and use that to make a custom stock ROM.

What tool would I use to extract it? And, making it a custom Rom, don't I need to write a updater script? I have no experience with this.

Writing the updater script is my main gripe with this, don't have a lot of experience doing that

Just take one of my file here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39658634&postcount=2 as your template.
Remove whole system folder and replace with your extracted system folder
Then change the mount point in the updater-script to suit the JB mount point.
And of course remove the boot.img as it's the ICS boot.img and you may want to replace it with JB boot.img

Why do that, it wouldn't do much, we don't have s-off... You can just post the boot IMG as a separate download ...

He asked what he could do/how to restore with his TWRP backup as there is no TWRP for JB yet.
I tipped him to make ROM out of TWRP backup for his personal use, to attach boot.img for whom ?? Which thread ?
He may share it later if anyone wants it, so people may simply take out the boot.img from the zip. So make it proper with a JB boot.img inside the zip.

ah, sorry, i was thinking of something else...

I just replace the system folder and i'm good to go? Which version would be more usefull, the ML or the normal? I downloaded the normal one for now.

And change the mount point to JB's for the updater-script

It worked a charm! I'll attach ny file to the downgrade guide later

The recovery has to be fixed before this can be used. The system doesn't mount (From what I read) so you can't write anything to it. Once there is a working recovery, then you can wipe, flash a ROM, etc.

You can do 1. adb push /pathtohasoon2000sstockzip/hasoon2000stock.zip /sdcard and then 2. in CWM, advanced -> wipe dalvik and in CWM main screen wipe data/cache to finally 3. flash hasoon2000stock.zip from sdcard
or
1. reboot into bootloader, then choose fastboot then 2. "fastboot oem lock" from command prompt then 3. run the stock RUU available on this forum

Any chance for 1.18.401.1 ? A system dump maybe ?
It seems that there is no way to extract the ROM.zip as HTC implemented new encryption to their RUU.

Sure. If someone uploads a system dump or preferably a nandroid, I'll make one.
OK, since people are looking for it, I posted the one I made a couple of days ago of 1.18, can you upload it to somewhere else then my dropbox ?

My Answer is for kagouro - Becouse i Don't see your post when I write.
If Your Phone is dedected in adb you can use logcat (adb logcat in windows cmd) if phone don't dedected in adb - flash recovery via fastboot, join in recovery , instal working rom and found bad files in rom (try add modyfication singly - first root, second busybox etc - in this metod you can see whad mod don't work - probably stupid method but work :cyclops

Kitchen will replace certain necessary parts of your ROM if it isn't compatible with the kitchen, it puts them back when you compile. When you compiled your ROM did you take the guided option? Also, and probably the first thing I should have asked, is your phone compatible with kitchen?

OK, just for giggles try this, take the meta-inf folder from a rom you know works and using 7zip replace the one in your rom. Let me know if that helped at all:beer:

Ext3 is a mount point, I'm not sure what it would be specific to your device, but it tells me there's an error in your updater script

You don't extract ROM.zip and you don't extract "payload dumper"...
You use "Payload Dumper" to extract all ROM IMG files that are inside "payload.bin" that is inside ROM zip
