Most of the times, Backup made from unofficial recovery isnt compatible with other recoveries. so u have to restore it using same recovery.
i personally dont like zcx as it has given me several times encryption decryption data corruption. might be it was my mistake but on the run i use alka recovery. its good its just u have to enter name of backup manually as it doesnt show correct time.

[Q] Can't Restore /data in CWM

Using sk8's cwm I can't restore nandroids anymore. It always errors out saying that there was an error restoring /data. I'm about to go try TWRP, but I really prefer CWM and was wondering if anyone has encountered this before.
Thanks for the help!
Sorry to double post, but after trying twrp, my backups still don't work. They appear to be created fine, but when they are restoring they completely skip the data partition. I've already done the camera fix, so I'm not sure what else to do...

[Q] onandroid TWRP backups messed up

I've been using onandroid to make CWM backups of my device for a while now.
It does work really well and I want to take the time to congratulate onandroid developer, congratulations Ameer!
Anyway, I recently got a TWRP image that supports my device and was very pleased with it as it has neat features compared to CWM (which is still awesome and flawless). So, I flashed TWRP recovery image and the next thing I did was create a typical TWRP backup with onandroid (v9.51).
Now, the thing is that I cannot properly restore the backup from TWRP. The system/kernel/recovery images seem to be recovered correctly because the system boots fine after a complete wipe, but the data is just not there. Instead I'm greeted with the typical brand new Android OS language selection, bla, bla. Everything is missing.
In an attempt to understand why I also backed-up my tablet's system and data partitions with TWRP (from recovery), this is what I ended up with both method:
TWRP
=====
system.ext4.win (508 MB)
data.ext4.win000 (1.47 GB)
data.ext4.win001 (805 MB)
Onandroid v9.51
=============
system.ext4.win (507 MB)
data.ext4.win000 (1.02 GB)
data.ext4.win001 (1.16 GB)
data.ext4.win002 (30.0 MB)
TWRPs backed-up data partition is correctly restored while onandroid isn't. Also, the contents of those archives are totally different. TWRP creates a data.ext4.winXXX structure with AndroidManifest.xml, resources.arsc file, res and META-INF folder, etc... while onandroid structure is the raw folder/file structure from the partition. I also need to mention that onandroid doesn't log any error during the process which takes around 10 minutes.
Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong?
I also tried using onandroid through Online Android Backup and I had the exact same result/problem.
PS: FYI my data partition is >2GB
Thanks for the help.
I am having the same problem. Restoring from onandroid backup restores everything but the data for me. I have tried multiple different ways to restore the data but no luck.

Sorry about this but... FINALLY!
I thought nobody else had this damn problem.
I concluded onandroid is the problem because the backups do not follow the norm in comparison to the ones made by TWRP recovery.
I'm not sure if TWRP backups were officially made differently in previous versions. This is the single thing keeping me from using TWRP as a whole.
I even posted this issue on onandroid Github but so far I had no reply from the developer. Fortunately I have a choice between TWRP and CWM, unfortunately not everyone has both compatible custom recovery roms.
I have the same problem with a CWM based recovery. Everything is restoring fine but when It comes to the data it stops with an error

That is a very different issue and I don't get errors restoring TWRP backups, it just doesn't restore the data.
Anyway, what error(s) do you get while restoring your CWM backup?
Is your data partition over 2GB?
What CWM backup method do you use (default, split, incremental)?
What is your CWM rom version?

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

OrangeFox Restore Failed

Hello Everyone!
When I was restoring one of my OrangeFox 10.1_1_stable backups, My device went-off almost in the middle of the backup. I somehow managed to bring it alive. But when I restored my backup with TWRP 3.2.3-1 recovery, it was restored perfectly, and the system booted.
I had posted my problem in detail here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83046045&postcount=667
I want to know whether the recovery had bugs OR I made the error of restoring the wrong partitions?
And I have one more query too -
In official TWRP, I always made backup of every partition EXCEPT RECOVERY AND FIRMWARE, and never ever had even a single problem in backup or restore.
But in Orangefox, I saw some partitions, which were not in TWRP. The backup in which I faced problem had all partitions EXCEPT RECOVERY AND INTERNAL STORAGE (i couldnt find FIRMWARE in Orangefox, and INTERNAL STORAGE in TWRP).
So, why the two recoveries show different partitions.
And most importantly, which partitions should be backed up, that can be restored safely to get my device in previous state exctly?
So here is some additional detail.
I have one-one backup - one from my TWRP 3.2.3-1, and the other from the OrangeFox 10.1-1-stable on my PC. On viewing the files of the backups, I found the following -
Common files in both the Backups -

Viewing these... can someone find out which restoring which partition from orangefox caused problem for me?
