MD5 mismatch..

Hello!
Suddenly I'm getting on one of my backups "MD5 mismatch..." error. Didn't do anything. Haven't change a name of the folder, nothing.
Is there is some way to restore data from that backup?
Help me, please?
Thank you!

Did u try an advanced restore of data

Yes. Actually, I've tried it first.

I am getting the same problem, and Yes I also did advanced restore but I got the same error there also.

I had the same problem once. I ended up having to restore an older backup.

Leave SPACES out of your filenames and folders

I was reading on this as was having same issue...a guy posed that you can't have SPACES in your filenames or folder names.
I did this and worked a treat!!!
Good luck...just take out the spaces...

There was no spaces because I did not change anything. It was Nandroid backup and suddenly it was not working. Couldn't do anything, so, restored older backup.

Are u perhaps using ext4 with no_journaling? All it takes is one zero misplaced and your data goes poof. Suggest in future you place copies of backups on your hard drive.
Brought 2 u via Bonzai! 5.0.2

I assume you're talking about flashing back to DI18 using Odin. Rename the file from .md5 to .tar and it will work fine. I don't think the .tar has a valid MD5 hash that ODIN recognizes.
Or not, just reread post.

Cant delete nandroid backups

For some reason I'm having trouble deleting nandroid backups off my N7. If I plug it in using usb, and I delete it. I can go back in and check it, its still there. Using astro, it says theres an error deleting the file. Any ideas on what to do? Its just a bit of a pain having a 1.2gb file on my 8gb n7.

Flash this in CWM recovery and it should wipe ALL of your backups from the device. Make sure to offload the ones you want (including the blobs folder).

Titanium backup issue

I'm trying to create an 'update.zip' file to flash after installing a new rom. The problem is, it doesn't actually create a zip file. It just duplicates every file in the backup folder.
Any ideas?

I just created a zip file containing the apk to be flashed in recovery. Is that what you are doing? Go to menu and head to Special Fetures to create an update.zip of the tb apk that's flashable.

I apologize. I should've clarified. I'm trying to create an update.zip file that contains all of my backed up apps, via Menu/Batch actions, under Recovery mode. It's narrative says, 'Create "update.zip" from app+data backups'. I assumed this would do what I was thinking it would do.

Yes that is what it does. So you are saying when you are running that command, a series of additional file folders?

Let's call it a bit of confusion on my part. Not necessarily unwarranted though, because it places both update.zip files outside of the TB folder. Since everything I've had it back up to this point was dumped in the TB folder, I never thought to look elsewhere.
As for the extra files... let's chalk that up to me seeing things?

Ah...yes you are correct. Both instances will create an "update.zip" on the 'sd card' of the phone outside of TB. What I do is edit the name to something like appsupdate.zip for the apps and left the other update.zip alone.

Have you ever flashed your apps zip in recovery? If so, did everything go well?

I attempted it a few days ago when coming from 4.2.2 to 4.3. It didn't go very well lol. It would flash the appsupdate.zip, lets say, and I see the apps get flashed, but, my recovery would reboot the phone. Bottom line it didn't work for me at that time. I'll try it after lunch to see how it functions when I have root and the phone is happy and stable lol.
What I did was just download TB from the play store and restored my apps from my backup folder once I got root again.

It threw me for a loop when moving from 4.2 to 4.3, due to having to change it to /legacy/. Think this had anything to do with it, or no, since you were in recovery?

Maybe, not sure. I'm going into recovery now. Looks like everything is installing currently. When I did this last time. It tried flashing and booted up without a prompt. It does auto boot up after flashing btw.
Booting up.....
looks good!

Great! Glad to see something work as it's supposed to. Of course, TB is solid, with a solid development team, so it should!

how do i restore with nanoid backup?

Hi,
I backup my system with nandroid using CWMR mode. I save it into my computer, then I wipe down my SD card. If I want to use CWMR to restore that backup, where do I copy the file to so that it will be recognized in recovery mode?
Thank you,

Cwm backups be copied in /data/media/clockworkmod/backups, you can pull the data using "adb pull /data/media/clockworkmod/backups"

Hi,
I already pull the backup.
My question is where do I put them back into the sd card so it will be recognized by CWM in recovery mode. Putting in back in the same folder won't get recognized

What about when we create backup using CWMR in recovery mode. I can see them through rom manager. They have a similar path /mnt/shell/.. but using ES explorer I can't access them anywhere. Is there any way I can pull that out?

In Rom Manager, go to manage and restore backups, from there, there is an option to download your backup, using a browser from your pc

Bought the license on play store but not able to activate. End up pirate apk from google, still doesnt work. Is there a way I can pull it out like nandroid backup?

Thank you. Do you happen to use titanium backup?
If I back up app+user data on my current rom, and let say later i do a factory reset and flash to another rom. Will the titanium back up still be there for me to restore later? If so, will I get the same app, and all user date like sms, picture onto my new rom?

Yes, u can restore your app data as long as you don't format your sdcard partition, to be safe, you can just copy the whole TB folder to your pc.
For sms, you will need to restore system data, which is not recommended when changing roms, maybe just select sms and restore from TB.
Pictures will still be available, again, to be safe, just copy everything to your pc, just in case.

Can you just flash zip file or need to extract and go through restore process?

My phone only goes into twrp after flashing a mod in the international section and I've completed the following steps below, but phone won't recognize backup on sd card. Can someone point me in the right direction?
1. Downloaded and extracted zip file
2. Placed unzipped folder in my twrp backups.
3. Booted into recovery and clicked om restore but file not showing up.
4. Checked to make sure twrp is not ready Only checked and it's not
**UPDATE** I changed to a different computer and was able to add the twrp backup to my internal drive, but still same problem of it nor showing up for a restore

I believe files need to be unzipped and the folder needs to be added to either internal or external storage. Flashing won't do anything.

When the file is unzipped is the folder titled TWRP or something else?

having same issue with twrp not seeing the backup. Kinda weird. Trying it again by downloading the zip on a different computer and extracting to the directory. Wiped system and everything prior so I am sitting on a dud right now lol.
edit: Found my issue though. Didn't like the folder in twrp that it was backed up into. Made a new backup (of nothing) and then moved the actual backup to that folder and it took to it. Easy fix. Restoring now. Thanks.
editedit: It failed to restore. Ahh well. Just gonna restore stock tot and call it a day. Thanks!

Yeah probably going to take this post down because only a few have successfully restored and every time they restore my Google Play Store has errors Downloading apps. I have to remove my Google account from the accounts page and sign back in daily. Probably going to TOT back to stock also. The only sensitive data recorded in the TWRP backup seems to be my serial number for my phone. Could be why Google Play is bumpy having so many different accounts under one serial number. I recommend all others that did the restore to TOT restore also.
!*!*!*!!*!*!*!!*!*!*!PLEASE CHECK YOUR SERIAL NUMBERS!!! MAKE SURE THE SERIAL IN THE SOFTWARE MATCHES THE ONE ON YOUR BOX!!*!*!*!*!*!*!

Thanks for trying though! Definitely a A+ for effort.
If it worked as it should have, would have made going back to stock hell of a lot easier lol.

As someone with a mac who doesn't want to deal with reliving the whole TOT flashing experience, if anyone would be willing to PM me a system twrp restore I would be VERY thankful.
