[Q] restore backup possible?

Hi guys!
I have a big problem: i was on Omega 42.1 and wanted to try paranoid. I know there was being said to update recovery, but well i did not (stupid me). I did a backup and installed para. After a few hours i could not cope with it anymore so i did a new backup and wanted to restore Omega. Cmw restore did not find it because of stupid 0 folder. I installed CMW mangaer from Store, installed newest recovery and there the omega backup was listed. But there came Error while /system when restoring it. Now im on omega again and have newest philz. Still i always get error while restoring... It is strange that in backup of my Omega are not a many files in /backup then in Paranoid backup or the one on fresh omega i did just (see foto).
It is important for me to get back my backup... Can anyone help me??

Try moving backup to external SD card and recovering.
If that does not work. You might have to do a megawipe of your internal storage, (backup everything) cause 4.2.2 roms change the folder structure of your intenal storage.

you should make a folder called clockworkmod inside of it folder called backup and inside it your backup file folders should be in folder that recovery is trying to find your backup

[Q] CWM Nandroid backup question

Hello!
I have CWM Touch Recovery v6.0.3.1. A couple of hours ago, I made a NANDroid backup before flashin a new ROM. When I attempted to use NANDroid backup manager to restore my apps and data, the app said I had no apps in the backup. Upon reviewing the files CWM created, I discovered that it created several data.ext4.tar files. Is there a way to combine these so I can use the Nandroid backup manager to restore my apps. I've managed to restore call logs, text messages and wifi data but my apps are important too
Thanks in advance for the help ^-^
EDIT: I do realise I could probably use CWM for restoring but I want to restore specific apps and not the data. (I.e the recently updated hotmail app)
Plus, restoring with CWM flashes data that is incompatible with the new ROM.
full back up or partial back up

As far as i know Nandroid backup is used to restore previously backed up ROM+installed applications+app data . If you jus want to back up some application, just use something like "Titanium Backup", it workes great.
:good: If it helped you, Just hit the THANKS :highfive:
Titanium, Backup (TiBu) has an option for extract from nandroid backup in its menu. why dont you try that if u have TiBu installed ..
Thank you but I solved my problen a while ago.

A nandroid backup is used to backup the system,boot,recovery... In case your phone is bricked but if yout want to backup apps just use an application like titanium backup
Dear fellows,
I hope this is a right place to ask my question here. If not please please tell me and head me over to an other thread where this has been discussed.
I've rooted the S4 mini successfully (thanks to arco68). Right after the rooting process and installing ARCO's CWM I backed up the stock 4.4.2 rom in any case. I did a factory reset and flashed CM 11 also successfully and everything was good. After a week I wanted to go back to stock. So I restored the backup I made previously. Everything went out good, but now the whole system is inconsistent and instable. I have problems with the WiFi, SD card problems and so on.
What am I did wrong? Any advise is very welcome
I will flash stock via Odin tomorrow and root it again. But I want to avoid this process in future
Thanks

hi im currently using samsung galaxy s3 i9300 with a 4.1.2 rooted version. Due to my phone wifi grey out issue, i made a backup using cwm recovery before i do anything that can solve the issue including factory reset.

You don't restore data from one OS build to another .
But if you want to try you can choose advanced restore data only .
Any odin any CF root but use the same CWM as you backed up with .
Basic stickied faqs and guides are still free read them .

meaning that if i want back all my data including phone contacts, the only way to restore them is by downloading back 4.1.2 firmware to my phone and then root it with CF root then restore data using cwm recovery? Thanks anyway!

Titanium backup is what you're looking for, you can use the. xml method to restore call logs txt etc
Don't restore system data but apps /data should be fine
What you could do is restore your nandroid, run titanium, reflash, then restore

If you still have the NANDROID backup from CWM than you can try ADVANCED RESTORE from CWM.
Go to Advance Restore and just restore the DATA from the nandroid backup.
It will just restore your data but it will not change your OS 4.2.2 But IT MIGHT GIVE YOU SOME FORCE CLOSES as the data that you backed up is from 4.1.1 or 4.1.2. But it is worth try. If it doesnt work than you can flash the whole backup again anyways... Hope it works...

Its all in the stickied faqs and guides .
XDA is not a spoonfeeding forum .
Read the How to return to stock for warranty thread .
Once back top stock leave your firmware as it is .
