There are tutorials all over this site. Which phone model are you trying to backup? The GT-N7102 clone?
If so use MTKDroidTools (there are links to it here @ XDA forums)

Sort of difficult to understand your question, but I think what you want to do is backup your current ROM and then flash it to 50(!) other galaxy tabs. Use CWM recovery and select "backup." Let it run. When it's finished, the backup file will be in a folder called "clockworkmod" (it's several large files in a folder). Copy this folder to the other tablets (same file structure) and in CWM recovery choose "restore." (it's right next to backup).
BTW- If you don't have root you'll need to do that first; you can then install CWM recovery with the ROM Manager app from the play store. It won't work unless you have root first.
If none of that made sense, you need to read a lot more of this forum before you flash anything on your tablets (since you can damage/brick your tablets if you're not aware of what you're doing).

The goal is to not have to root, install CWM...
Starting from a brand new Galaxy tab and with a quick action get it cloned.
I spend too much time to root, install CWM and then my backup.
There is another way ?

Sorry, but there's no other way. But it's really not that much time. You just pointed out that it's 3 steps. It will take a day or less.

[Tutorial] How to Backup and Restore IMEIs in Canvas HD

Ok I have found out entirely new way of restoring backed up IMEIs.
Many members think that MobileUncle Tool can backup and restore your IMEIs but you are mistaken friends, I have already tried, it does backup your IMEIs but doesn't restore the IMEIs.
If you are rooted then its better to backup your IMEIs as we all root to experiment with our device. Most of the advance member must be knowing the location of IMEIs in MTK devices, its in Data>NVRAM>md>NVRAM>NVD_IMEI, so just to be on safer side just copy entire NVD_IMEI folder on a safe place in SD card or in your computer. If you don't have backup of your IMEIs but do have backup of your ROM, then you can extract your NVRAM folder from backup as well. Just open the data.ext4.tar.a in 7zip and extract the NVRAM folder from there.
Though IMEIs can be written via Engineering Mode but sometimes it doesn't work without formatting the entire device. And formatting erases all the MAC IDs and then you have to use SN_Station to write your MAC IDs, and using SN_Station is really very painful.
So first try Engineering Mode, if it doesn't work then you are actually in trouble, now you have to write your IMEIs using one or the other IMEI writing application, but in this method you don't require any app apart from SP Flash tool.
Here is the method that too in just two lines.
1. Overwrite your backed up NVD_IMEI folder @ data>NVRAM>md>NVRAM folder, you might have to change the permissions in root browser, I prefer ES File Explorer.
2. Once you paste that folder successfully just flash your ROM normally using SP flash tool. Reboot your device and you would get your IMEIs back.
Enjoy.....................
This works dude.... I have tried it.. Thanks a tonne

First you have to overwrite the NVD_IMEI folder and then flash the stock ROM using SP Flash tool, your would get the IMEIs back.

Though I have not tried to backup my ROM using Stock recovery but you can try opening the backup file using 7zip, I did manage to extract IMEIs from my CWM and TWRP backup using 7zip.
Thanks. Working for me as well on my Canvas A116..
Thanks

how to flash a stock ROM that was backup using GSM Aladdin

Hi guys
I want to ask something
I just backup my stock ROM using GSM Aladdin (using the read flash feature.also i ticked save as scatter) and it completed successfully so i went to the folder where it was saved (something like MT6580xxx) and i saw .bin files like boot , system , preloader etc
So my point is they are all .bin files (excluding the scatter.txt)
And i want to flash that to my phone using sp flash tool so do i need to make the .bin files to .img files or can i use directly? ? Or is there any other step ? Please help
