I've searched and haven't found anything.
Is it possible to Nandroid backup on MAGLDR then Nandroid restore on cLK with the backup from MAGLDR? (Does this sentence make sense?)
I wanted to try cLK, and my favorite rom supports both (MAGLDR/cLK). I was wondering if it was possible so I wouldn't have to go through the painstaking process of setting my phone back up to where I want it.
No it doesn't work, tried it, and had to go back through a Task29 to fix the problem.
even if it works u will have probleme with data ... cuz magldr use rmnt and clk ppp
It should work if you do not restore the system partition. Flash the rom and just restore data and sdext.

Just recently rooted my MT3g, had to downgrade from Donut to Cupcake. Anyways, I forgot to perform a Nand backup while on the "stock" Cupcake rom. I instead went straight to flashing a Hero rom. Everything is well, it's just that I want to perform a Nand backup in case something goes wrong.
So the question is...
Can I perform a Nand backup while currently on this Hero (Slick Willy) rom?
Ps. There's an option to perform a Nand + ext backup. Please explain. Thanks.
i dont ever use a nandroid on a hero...it just doesnt seem like it would work. i usually do it on a cyanogen rom because those are the most stable...and do not need a cleen ext partition to boot properly.

Okay thanks, how about if I re-root my phone and perform a nandroid backup on the "stock" 1.5 cupcake?
Running MDJ Gingerbread on NAND and stupidly never made a backup.
I think I cleared the Dalvic cache, and was playing a game when it overheated and froze.
Took out the battery and let it cool, and now it won't get past the HTC logo.
First; can I simply reinstall using Romupdate/Rapitool without losing all my data?
I'm not sure if I have Clockwork recovery, or if I can install it.
Magldr 1.13 says no boot options w/AD Recovery.
Is there any way to backup or access my data?
I'm sorry if there is a simple answer somewhere, I've read so many posts that my head hurts.

Hi,
You need CWM to be installed.Check by powering on the phone and holding the power button when it vibrates.
If MAGLDR opens up,go to 8 ad recovery>backup and restore and make a backup.
Then just try to re-install ROM without wiping anything.
If you cannot get to MAGLDR,check this:
http://androidforums.com/nookcolor-...8-how-make-bootable-cwm-recovery-sd-card.html
to make a backup,then try to re-install magldr,cwm,ROM.
Remember,re-installing magldr will wipe all your data,so try backing up first.
Ran CWM from SD card and tried to backup but I don't have cache partitions so the backup was blank. Installing CWM will erase my data. Is there any other way to backup? Can I convert the rom to CWM update.zip and reinstall without losing everything? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905961

I keep trying to run a different rom from SDcard, but they all stick on the HTC logo. I read somewhere that you cannot use SDcard Android with NAND Android. Is this confirmed?
Is there any way to backup using TTY?

Hello,
today i have just tried to install Windows Phone 7 on my HD2.
Before i have created an nandroid backup with clk cwm.
I didnt like WP7 so i've decided fast to return back to my old rom.
I didnt find my old clk installation files so i've downloaded some new one (same cwm partitions)
Now if i want to restore my backup cwm gives me the following lines:
ClockworkMod Recovery v3.2.0.0
Checking MD5 sums...
Erasing boot before restore...
Restoring boot image...
Error while flashing boot image!
And i'm back in the menu.
Can anyone help me please? I have set up this rom for so long time and dont want to lose it.
Regards.
files maight be currompted ...just intsall everything from the begening and in the next time when u will make a backup copy the file into ur computer so u dont have to worry about the backup
Try flashing the rom clean, and then use selective restore to restore the data and sd ext partitions only.

I think the boot image was corrupted. I did copy it onto my computer (how should i have not, due to the sd repartitioning by wp7)

as my experience some builds accept restoring of nandroid from another build but many of them don't accept. so what is best flash your old rom, restore nandroid, then backup with titanium backup, then flash the other rom and restore with titanium backup.
Hi, i use a clk-gingerbread-rom on my HD2. If i make a backup with my installed cwm 5.0.2.6 to my sd-card and after that i make a task29 and repartition my HD2 and install a new magldr-rom, can i flash my clk-rom-backup back and then i have clk back or do i have to repartition my HD2 again for clk and install clk again and after that flash back my backup?
In my experience in order to restore a backup you need to have a rom installed or else the backup will not restore correctly and it wont boot. The backup basically restores the settings of the way you had the rom at a certain point you can think of it as a restore point or with mac when you use time machine. Basically anything new will be erased and your phone is restored to a previous state but it needs a base rom installed in order for it to know where to start.
Si i first have allways to install the exact same rom and same partition layout i had before, when i backed up my phone?
I thought, this nandroid-backup would be a complete image of all partitions and i only have to flash it back, so it wouldn´t matter which rom i have installed between.
So it is much work, if i only want to test a new rom. Now i use gingerbread from tytung with clk and i want to test an ics-rom with magldr and a bigger partition size.
Since certain aspects of the roms are different this is what causes the problem. As when you restore some of the previous settings may be retained either on nand or on the info stored on your sd card. Your best bet is to install a rom that you used to backup and then restore. You can try restoring with the new rom installed but I believe it will not work correctly but you can try it and let me know.

You won't lose anything. Just make a CWM backup (as a failsafe, you shouldn't need it) then flash the new version over the old version. Don't do a wipe or anything like that, just flash it. After the update is completed, clear the cache partition (from the CWM menu) and the dalvik cache (in advanced in CWM) and reboot. First reboot may take some time but after that it should be as it was before, just with all of the updates to the ROM.
Just install new ROM
I have some situation like you have, Typhoon 3.7.0 update to 3.8.0! What I did is just pull the ROM to SD card, and then enter recovery choose " install a zip from sdcard" choose your files, and install and it just all set! Your personal data will not be delete!
i just installed this ROM from MIUI, didnt do task29, installed and wipe cache and dalvik.
i like this ROM but the Cynogen settings keeps giving me FC
anyone knows how to fix it without dong a wipe clean>?
also if i have to do task29 how to backup and restore my data? sorry noob here.

I don't quite understand your problem with Cyanogen settings, but to backup and restore just use the CWM backup. It will backup literally everything on your phone and any apps you have on your SD card. If you ONLY want to backup your app data and other data which you want to restore onto a different ROM, you can either:
1. Create a CWM backup and when restoring, go to advanced restore and restore data partition
2. Use Titanium Backup to backup apps, Super backup (I think that's what it's called at least) to backup contacts, SMS and call logs and (probably unnecessary but you might need it) APN backup & restore to backup your APN settings.
