I rooted and installed CWM. I then did a nandroid backup of my current stock rom. Then I flashed sky icecream sandwich. Can I just go into CWM and flash my stock backup to get back to stock rooted with CWM, or do I have to go back through Odin?
Anytime you restore a nandroid backup it takes it back to exactly how you were when you made the backup
Unless............
Unless cwm screws up and you cant mount the internal sd. Then u must odin

I have rooted the SNS using Clockworks recovery and then flashed it using the CM7 RC 4 mod. Now i am trying to restore the nandroid backup taken before the flashing. It fails saying the /cache partition not mounted.
Please help me how to revert this to the original android 2.3.3 GRI54.
If you have not tried this recovery, you may want to give it a go. Also try the fix permisions option.

Yes. Nandroid backup will restore everything backuped.

Just a quickie...
Done a nandroid backup from within 4EXT recovery of my phone, which is stock 2.3.4, as I'm tempted to give one of the ICS custom roms a go.
These require flashing the ICS firmware before installing the custom ROM.
If I go back via the nandroid restore from recovery, does this restore the firmware or would that need re-flashing first?
No, it does not.

No it will not restore firmware, but if you keep a library of firmware on your SD card you can install as you need from recovery. Rename the PG58IMG files with a reference to the firmware so you don't get muddled up, then rename to PG158IMG as you need.
I'm currently on jb and I'm trying to go back to ICS. But every time I try to flash it I get stuck on the boot image? Do I have to flash ICS boot loaders?

Are you trying to restore a nandroid backup or just install an ics ROM? Which ROM are you trying to go to?
I went from JB back to slim and remics. I had to make sure I wiped everything, and I did a fresh install instead of a restore.
When moving from a newer rom to an older rom you usually have to flash twice. In your case once from the JB CWM and then again from the ICS CWM.
I had same problem. I do full wipes and flash ICS.

I made it so:
1) Flashed Semaphore ICS kernel with Odin
2) Viped data and cache
3) Restored nandroid backup with Semaphore CWM
4) Restored apps with Titanium backup
