Here's my prob, flashed miui successfully and now I can't restore a nand backup, it goes through the motions but just goes back to miui. I think I might need red cwm

I've noticed over the past few months that my nandroid backup or restore hasn't been working properly. I'm using amon ra's recovery and backing up like normal but when i restore and reboot it just loads the boot image and then there's a black screen. Anybody know what the problem is?
I have an original Droid X that I had flashed Rubix Focused 2.0 onto and it was working fine but i decided I wanted to go back to my original backup that I had created using ROM Manager, after going into Clockwork Recovery to wipe my data and my cache. I then attempted to go into the restore section of Clockwork Recovery and restore from my original backup. However after several attempts of trying this process I cannot get my phone to restore from that backup file which happens to be my only backup. My phone seems to get stuck on webview.db
I am not sure what this process is that it keeps getting stuck on however it is preventing me from going back to my original backup and thus my phone is completely useless. Any ideas on how to work around this issue or fix it so I can have my regular DX back?
I've installed MIUI on the Nook Color and now would like to restore it back to factory settings, but can't! What am I doing wrong?
I've booted into ClockWorkMod Recovery and did a wipe, but it still boots back into MIUI. I also installed CWM on a microSD and booted into recovery from there to perform a wipe, and still it won't work.
Is there a way to perform the 8 interrupted boots??
Any help is appreciated.
Never mind... I think I figured it out.
I just have to download the complete restore file and restore from that.
So earlier today my phone stopped getting service . After trial and error i ended up in a boot loop so i nandroid backped and factory reset. I reflashed PAC man ROM and all seemed good, so i went to nandroid advanced restore and tried to only restore data to try and not boot loop again.this ddidn't work so i wiped and flashed PAC man again. This time however i restored the boot and system and my phone works fine. I'm unsure of what restoring sd-ext will do. So my question is, how to i restore my data now from nandroid without getting boot looped? All i really need off of it is my texts. (Apps are on titanium)

I think your best option is to download nandroid manager from the playstore. That will allow you to pull your data from your backup and restore it from the app, it's similar to the way titanium backup restores data.
I think the issue you're having has to do with restoring data from a 4.2.2 rom. Most recoveries have issues with restoring data because 4.2.2 is setup for multiuser and the data locations are different. I think when you're restoring data only, it's not actually writing your data correctly and it's soft bricking your phone.

I got nandroid manager and it worked perfectly! Thanks a million!Exactly what I needed
Ok, so I asked this in XDA Assist but can't post reply there.
This is what happened on my Xperia mini St15i, with firmware 4.1.B.0.587:
1. I turned on Bluetooth and the phone got stuck in infinite boot loop - apparently this is a known bug.
2. I decided to try out CM 9. Installed CWM Recovery and did backup on sd card and flashed CM.
3. I remembered that I did the backup earlier so I thought maybe there is a way to keep my apps and data.
4. I went back to CWM and restored from backup. CM didn't boot then, so I flashed back stock rom with flashtool and booted the phone. The apps and data was there( at least for one app which was very important), but contacts and messages were gone.
So my question is, is there a way to recover ALL user data from the backup? I don't care if it's on stock rom or CM at this point.
I hope some of you knowledgeable people can help!
Many thanks,
Paul
Can someone please help. :crying:
I managed to restore it with all the data by trial and error (I don't know HOW). Then at night the phone lost battery and is back to rebooting forever.
If I restore all via CWM and then flash stock, it boots up saying "Android is upgrading" and then keeps rebooting.
If I do a factory reset via CWM and flash stock rom, the phone is back to factory setting with no data.
WHICH partitions should I recover and which should I flash to retain the data??? HELP :crying:
