What is the Nitrality backup location?
I know where it is now but i do not see efs backup there
does it mean so it does not do efs backup?
OK now i know ti all but also kno that it does not do a backup of EFS partition just a files. The question is if there is a program that makes full backup of EFS partition and can recreate it when it is corupted?
backup location
For everyone who's still wondering where the backup is hidden:
sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
So pretty sure I've lost my EFS partition or some of it's data, don't have a backup (yay me!), have tried odin flash to stock and doesn't fix...or I'm missing something...Thanks.
if i encrypt my phone.....can i take a nandroid backup?using CWM or TWRP ?? will it work? .....as all the partitions will be encrypted..
i saw that we should backup EFS when flashing , but i also read that some people backup QFS so as not to lose IMEI, should i do both? or should i simply backup the EFS partition , any advice please
hold efs partition backup should be enough, if you keep both also fine. personally i keep efs backup only and never use it due to when i lost my imei, i only need to flash some modem files
flashing modem files fixes your IMEI issues?
I made a nandroid backup for almost all partitions using TWRP and now I need to restore the data partition. Unfortunately, TWRP (or a corrupt backup) does not offer the option to choose which partition to restore. So is it safe to delete anything but data.ext4.win0*, data.ext4.win0*.sha2 and data.info files from the backup directory and restore it (if I have no /data to loose)?
Would of course be disastrous if it tries to restore the partitions which I deleted from the backup, especially recovery, without the backup file, thereby just deleting it.
Thanks if you can give me some advice
