once you have twrp flashed or side loaded, click the backup button. Then backup what you need. I believe the system partition is all that needs to be restored to get OTAs, but I'd backup the boot img anyways (especially if you are going to flash custom kernel).
The easiest way to get the backup off your watch is via ADB. But i believe you can use an app from playstore to copy from watch to your phone if you dont have ADB setup on a computer. Backups are saved to /sdcard/TWRP

Stuck on splash screen. Have a full backup

Hi
Tried to find a similar thread but failed so I ask here.
I have a 10.1 Wifii & 3G
Did a full backup with Rom manager before doing anything.
Upgraded to overcome ROM 2.
Realized that there was no Swedish language in the ROM, so I decided to go back to the backed up ROM instead.
When I choose Restore in the Rom manager menu, my restore is there and it looks like it is working. It reboots, it checks the files, applies all img and other files, BUT. When it's done it just sits there on the Overcome CwM Recover v5.1.2.6. It feels like it never gets done? I also tried to do a restore from inside the nandroid menu but same thing. I also tried to wipe several time, but same thing. If I try to reboot the 10.1, it gets stuck on the splash screen.
SO, my question.
I really want to keep my data on the sdcard...
Scared of doing the restock on teamovercome homepage because it says
-"IT WILL ALSO WIPE OUT YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE!"
Is there any tips anyone can give me. Is this because my old ROM had different(older) boot files or something?
Please help
Lasse
Try installing CWM 4.0.0.4 using Odin and restore the backup and see if it works.
A small advice: Don't use ROM Manager for creating backups and restoring. Always do from the CWM directly. ROM Manager usually messes up the things

You can use the paid version of Titanium Backup.
It can restore individual apps+data from CWM backups

How to full backup without CWM?

Hi, i have a Wolder Mitab Boston tablet, have a recovery (Android system recovery <3e>) without backup options. First of all i want to make a full backup of the whole firmware, with adb i only can backup apks, shared, i put adb backup -all -system -shared -apk and i only have a small backup of 200mb, no system files included so i have to make a full backup and i need your help for that. I tried online nandroid backup but i dont have cwm so this not worked for me, i tried romdump but when i have installed i run it and this error happened:
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: romdump invalid R_ARM_COPY relocation against DT_SYMBOLIC shared library libc.so (built with -Bsymbolic?)
No idea what this means but this method dont worked for me, so i need an alternative method. Its very important to make the full backup before installing a better recovery. Thanks.
PD: If it helps the tablet it's rooted.

use online nandroid app - search here in XDA. It will create a backup for you and saves to your microSD card or internal card (make sure you have plenty of space).

install busybox (free edition would work from playstore), once installed, run the busybox, so it will install busybox...once done, reboot your tablet and come back to online nandroid backup app and run it again

How to do a NAND Stock backup??

Hi! I have a Leeco Le Max 2 X829, and as there arenĀ“t any official stock ROM I wanna save a 100% stock Backup of my X829 with 16S USA ROM. I mean ROM + Recovery, just as it is unpacked(without downloaded Apps and my data).
Could I make it booting in temporaly TWRP with fastboot and doing NAND backup choosing:
- Boot
- Recovery
- System
- Data...
Any other option? All options that TWRP show? thanks!
Yes. EFS too
Turn on phone with power+volume keys.

Then must I choose all options in TWRP backup?
One more thing... I Will be in a booted Recovery, so original Recovery is going to be still, then the one saved in the backup Will be the booted one ore the stock one? Thanks!
If you just want a factory setup without your apps and data I would say just backup the system image in twrp, backing up data definitely uncheck .
Only system is bit to less...
I would keep the us version.
eUI is not that bad and until we all get the update to android 7 ... it s probably the best and most stable rom running.
Why change it, when the other opportunities are leading to an less smooth running phone ?
To me all the cooked roms have disadvantages.
I need to have a fully working phone/ camera /fingerprint sensor...
without option to go back to the US rom I wouldn't change a thing!

Mmm, then all options least Data? Thanks!
Don't listen to them. Back up everything. Who cares about a few space? Besides data is probably empty or with a few stock tools. Just backup all for your complete image. EFS contains IMEI and other stuff. It is important to have it. You can Back up everything, and then move it to a computer or somewhere else
It will have stock recovery backed up to TWRP and it's better if you backup as image, that way it saves the partition structures too.
Only first backup as image,to have perfect copy, the next backups you do is better do them as normal backups compressed (not image).

Hi, I have done and it made a lot of .win archives, is that right? thanks
Yes those are md5 or Sha sums, drag the whole TWRP folder to computer and you are good to go, don't change any name of any folder inside TWRP folder or TWRP will never detect that backup.
I don't know why but once I copied all except 73shf38 folder, and it turned out that folder with those numbers matter, and I couldn't restore without the exact name

TWRP backup, then flash stock recovery, later go back to TWRP?

Basically I've had my phone stock firmware for along time with TWRP but want to finally go AOSP. Can I twrp backup, Flash stock recovery, flash open kirin.... And if for some reason I'm not happy, if I reflash TWRP, will my backup still be there??
Doing anything on Huawei is such a pain.
And, why can't open kirin just be flashed in twrp? I would of done it along ago knowing I could just restore.
Thanks!

Backups are saved to /sdcard/, so unless you remove them from Internal Memory (By deleting the TWRP folder or Factory reset) they will still be there.
Please note that going from EMUI to AOSP will require a factory reset, same when you go back to EMUI. So keep a backup of backups on your computer.

a flashable backup?
Well, just copy the TWRP folder at the root of your internal sd. Paste it back when you want to restore backup using the Restore button in TWRP.

Nandroid backups

Can i use nandroid backups to switch systems
Like to switch back after trying a new rom without pc
If by nandroid you mean TWRP backups, then yes.
Like flash rros and then use the backup to return to stock with all my files and apps?
Yes a nandroid backup (aka twrp backup) saves a snapshot of the system in time so it doesn't matter what you do afterwards, once you restore the backup your device will go back to the same exact spot as it was the time when you'd taken the backup. Also when you often hear ppl say take backup before trying new update/rom/zip, this is exactly what they mean.
And yes you don't need pc as long as you can access your backup through otg USB/memory card etc.

Take care to backup the system image and not system. And use the same version of TWRP for backing up and restoring. Both these are not a must but to be on the safer side.
