What are you restoring from, Rom, filesystem, firmware could be the culprit. Notice any errors while making the Nandroid?

Did your rename the backups? Remove all spaces from the names if you did. That fixed it right up for me.

I went into recovery to do do the back ups. I think there were errors but I can't remember. I did re name them though. I just deleted them to start over... Thanks for your help!!

Does anybody have the voicemail.apk file? I did a nandriod restore and it wiped it out..
Thanks!
I'm trying to delete the voicemail app and for the life of me I can't find the voicemail.apk. How did you delete yours?

This one was a little tricky. The file is actually Sprint_Core.apk.

[Q] Generic Imei number

Hi,
for some reason i lost my Imei number. Im not sure when or how, but i would guess it was due to flashing.
Now i do have a backup of my efs folder, but somehow putting that one back doesnt work.
I get the following error in my nv.log:
Backup NV restored.
"MD5 fail. Original MD5 '17f88xxxx etc'
Computed MD5 'fbe9xxxxx etc'
Anybody with a solution to this?
I was thinking it might be because with ICS my radio was changed to the new one, so it makes a different MD5 checksum. Does this make any sence at all?
[edit]
ok this is really weird. Apperently ICS causes this. When i restore a nandroid back to GB and restore my backed up imei files, they stick and i have my imei back. As soon as i go back to ICS the problem is back.

If you're rooted, use Root Explorer & navigate to efs folder, then delete your nv_data.bin file, then rename your nv_data.bak file to nv_data.bin, therfore changing it from a bak file to a bin file, then reboot & see if this helps! If this fails try this technique here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqLK_2I-SBM Works with nexus s!

thanks for the ideas!
However, i dont have any bak files. I dont think i need them, since i do have the original .bin file.
The original does work, but in ICS it doesnt stick. As soon as i reboot its back to 00049 again.
In GB it does stick, but obviously i prefer to stay on ICS
Very weird problem.. cant be the only one having this issue?

You should have bak files!? bak files are for recorded changes! You say you have a backup of your cfs folder? if you do, open that & do as I mentioned, then try repacing that folder with the one on your device, reboot & see if that helps!

Well as I said, i have done that and it does work in ics... Until i reboot. Then its back to 0049...
In gb it does stick after rebooting, which seems strange to me.
not an ideal solution but why not just script the file copy. so when you reboot you dont need to do it manualy...

MD5Sum mismatch

I dl'd the CWM Image of v21e GB off the Android development page, but when I restore it, I get MD5Sum mismatch.
help?
Have you tried to redownload it? Might be bad download.
I have mirrors here if you meant the v21e nandroid
V21E
Also what version of CWM are you using? I've had the least amount of issues with 5.0.2.0

Don't rename directories or files, Nandroid MD5 has to match filepaths too.
I was messing with my keyboard layout bininaries the other day. I made a backup with cwm before hand. I went to restore and received this same message while restoring.
I did not mess with any file names, etc.

Sure it'll flash now, but if there's a reason for the hash's mismatch then you could have a corrupted backup. No harm trying though.

Could make a copy of the original backup dir, remove the .md5 checksum in the copy so it generates a new one and restore from there. If it doesn't work, you still have the untouched original dir.

I know that. I moved the backup on the computer and when I put it on my sd so I could restore it. It didn't work it says no file found do you know where I can download the Original Stock Rom and when i try starting it up it go's to a black screen with a green arrow pointing towards the found then it goes to the phone with a red triangle with a red exclamation point. What is that?
If your backup is not recognised you have put it in the wrong folder i think. So tell us, where the files are on your sd card.

+1 on that, if you have one it'll be recognized as long as it is in the right folder, and made with the same recovery.

So i put the backup in the CWM folder but it tells me no file found so what do I do? Can I go to some website to download the original stock Rom and kernel I need to fix my phone asap so can you please tell me exactly what I need to do. Plus what are those symbols i describe in my last reply. Thanks so much for assisting me I appreciate it.
The files must be in folder: clockworkmod/backup/2013-04-01.18.46.58
The last folder is the date it was created.
The symbols mean, your flash has failed.
What if that doesn't work

I already did that once and it didn't work so what do I do then?
what are my other options I really need help thanks for everything you've done so far.
If your backup don't work, i know there is a Stock cricket jb back here in One SV Forum. Others flashed this successfully.
Otherwise i'm running out of ideas.

Okay so what do I do. Do i just move the Nanadroid file and where on my Sd. I leave it in zip form right ?
Then using fastboot I go ahead and open up CWM? Will it work on any version of CWD? Thanks so much for getting that file for me and what do I do after its flashed? Like as from being to end what are the steps sorry for all the questions but thanks for everything.
Unzip it. Go into Clean JB Crkt 2.04.1050.3 folder and copy the clockworkmod to your external sd.
Then boot into cwm and choose restore and choose the backup.

Hey man I download that file but its not in zip its in Rar. so I just move the file on to my external sd out in the open not in a folder and I opened up my CWM from the install zip from sd card and that didn't work then I went to restore and it could find the file both times so how do I install it? Do I have to put it in a certain folder or something? It keeps saying no file found. Thanks
Don't copy the zip directly.
What you could do is make a backup, see where it is on your sd, replace it with the one from the zip and then restore that one.
So Noob17_Me, flash this rom from here.

Thanks for that. But I have a question is it exactly like the original one because I want it to be with the original stock so that i can re-lock my Bootloader and stuff? Is there some way to get that Rar. file to install on my phone? Sorry if im getting you angry or upset. Thanks for all your help
Yea but...

Yea but what im trying to say is that the file I downloaded isn't in zip form. So how am I supposed to install it on CWM?
Sorry but what is so difficult to understand? The rar is not for flashing, its a cwm backup and if you unrar it you have a folder Clean JB Crkt 2.04.1050.3, inside you find a folder clockworkmod.
This clockworkmod folder you have to copy to SD, like it is and and boot into recovery and choose "restore".
And my zip is made from this backup, so it are the same files!

How to fix MD5 mismatch (Easy Fix)

All you need is a rooted phone with a root file explorer and a nandroid backup.
1: Go into your root file explorer
2: Go to your clockworkmod>backup then choose the backup file
3: You will see a file called "nandroid.md5" Open it with text editor and delete everything inside it (Don't rename any files)
4: Exit with the back button and click "Save"
5: Happy restoring!
The problem causing it was the stuff in the md5 file not matching up, when you deleted it, it now skips this step.

And then there is no way detecting your backup is corrupted.

The md5 check is pretty important, if your back up is corrupted you could easily end up in a bad place. The steps you lined up, absolutely work and I have done it myself, but only with a nandroid back up that I was really confident in. I am not sure if this is still the case, but if you have several nandroid backups in your back up folder and one of them has been corrupted, then all of them might throw the back up error...even though their md5s match.
