Hi there - at work we have a number of these Lenovo S6000 tablets. One of them has been returned to us with a weird error that keeps making it reboot at random times. Before I throw it out, I was going to have a go at wiping it and reflashing - just in case it is a software/OS error rather than hardware.
As I said, we have loads of these kicking around, so I've rooted a known good one using framaroot, made a Nandroid backup on an SD card using Online Nandroid Backup, but I can't restore it onto the target device (also rooted) as I don't have a custom recovery installed (neither TWRP or CWM are supported on the Lenovo S6000, apparently).
Is there a way to restore from the backup without going into recovery mode? Or, is there another custom recovery I can install that would support the S6000, does anyone know?
Many thanks in advance

I have made a back up with a CWM 5 (don't know exactly which one) and then again with CWM 6.0.1.2. I flashed CM10 and then when I tried to restore back to the stock ROM that I had backed up I got an error in CWM 6.0.1.2 saying that an "Error occurred while restoring /data". I checked the file size and it was well under 2GB. I don't know what to do as I don't want to lose all of this data. Is there a way to restore the backup made in CWM 6.0.1.2 or a way to find out which version of CWM 5 I used for the other backup so that I could use that one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think it don't care which version of CWM 5 you use cause I think you used the recovery by chainfire. It's not longer supported by him so simply try to restore your backup with his last one.

So I had my Epic 4g Touch running on ics 4.0.4 root and it was working totally fine, UNTIL....I decided to install the cyanogenmod 10.1 rom to see how jellybean 4.2.2 is all about. I followed the instructions exactly as they were depicted on a youtube video, and used clockworkmod recovery v5.0.2.7 to backup my current rom (ICS 4.0.4). The 4.2.2 ran totally fine, until I tried restoring my data from the old rom I had before (I hope Im not confusing anyone). After restoring the data, the jellybean rom would stay stuck in the boot up screen. Then I tried just restoring the entire rom from backup, my phone would just boot right back into custom recovery mode after completing the backup restore. I then tried restoring my phone to the old 4.0.4 root that I had before, but I would just run into the same problems whenever trying to do a full backup restore or just a data restore (phone just cycling back into custom recovery mode)
Is there anything I could do???? I can still look into my phone's eternal sd card and see that the recovery files are still there. I just need to restore my phone back because it would be a lot of trouble finding contacts, redownloading apps, as well I had some vital memo pad files that I really need to get back for my business. IS THERE ANY WAY I COULD RECOVER MY PHONE DATA???? PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks guys. I found a solution. I just kept the new cyanogenmod 10.1 and used the nandroid manager app to restore all of my apps and the rest of my data individually. Worked great!!
Hello .
I have 2 tablets in this model, one is stuck on boot android logo , and the other one is ok working.
Same brand same model same operating sistem,same all .
I wonder if i make an backup from working tablet and then transfered the backup file to stuck tablet....can it be fix it ????
And if yes, how can i do this ???
thx in advance
Maybe it can be fixed. Looking into the specific model forum will get you more answers
Some general things you can try:
-factory reset from recovery mode. Search google to see how to
-reflashing a stock firmware
-Try making a nandroid backup from the working tablet and restore it in the broken one. Look into installing custom recoveries whih can make the task MUCH easier (you won't have to deal with dumping or creating the .img file).
As long as its the same model, the backup will be compatible with both.
-If factory reset, reflashing firmware or restoring backup doesn't work then its probably a hardware issue
Hello guys, i've recently got back to stock rom just to be sure to delete every mod done to my MB860, did this via RSD (A safe method tested even after with unlocked bootloader).
Thing is, when doing a backup of the rom via CWM says the next message:
error while making a backup image of /pds!
I've installed long ago the PDS Fix but after i've replaced my touchscreen i've rolled back to my stock backed PDS, but the CMW doesn't seems to be able to back up that partition, so CWM is a no go, and i have to roll to TWRP to backup, but i wish to know if there's a fix to this issue.
Thanks.
I have an MTK6580 phone and MTKdroid tools does not work on this chipset so cannot install any custom recovery, have made a CWM nand backup with onandroid online backup, all seems good and have it saved to SD and PC. I want to try and port a recovery to my phone but want to know if I can somehow 'convert' my nandroid backup to one that SP flashtools will recognise and flash?
I have a full stock SP rom to flash if it all goes wrong, so I wont brick it, just would rather be able to flash my current rom thats all sorted out by me already. I 'assume' I can just replace certain files/images from backup to stock? Would that work???
Alternatively, if anyone knows a better way to backup and restore the full phone, not just apps which Ive also backed up in TiBa that would be great, or if anyone knows how to get a recovery onto this phone... uhappy u580
Thanks.
