Hello guys, Ive been tinkering with my phone all day and had a nandroid backup of the sprint stock rom for the new galaxy s3. Unfortunately, as a result of my building losing power in this heat wave, my hard drive with the nandroid backup has failed. Can anyone make an nandroid backup of the stock and post plz. It would be so greatly appreciated
Anyone?
Anyone can lend a helping hand?
Let me know if you come across it. I need to reflash to sprint stock.
will post as soon as possible
Any update? I am in dire straits because I'm an idiot.

I was quite disappointed by not getting a reply to my questions in my phone section so i decided to post it here, hope you guys'll help me out.
Before i perform flashing a rom, i have a couple of questions to ask you.
1. I'm not familiar with nandroid backup and all that. So if someone can give me some explaination of how it works and what i need to do to have a backup of my rom so i can flash back to orignal one whenever i want?
2. Also i heard from people that after flashing some ROMs, you can't get back to stock rom (recovery), if so then how you know that certain rom isn't flashable
3. Is there a difference between recovering (flashing stock rom) and downgrading? if so then what?
4. How can one brick cellphone and how to recover back, is it easy to brick?
Also some basics if i need to know so that i don't brick my cellphone and can easily get back to my official rom whenever i want. Please do tell me anything which i should know, Thanks !
I need to return this phone. Bad pixles. I have unrooted it and restored the stock 2.2 rom nandroid. But this phone was shipped with gingerbread. I can't get it to update using the LG software. It says my software is up to date. So I guess I have to root again and flash the stock gb. Will someone help me locate stock gb zips or nandroids?
you have to do some trick with that lg updater to get it to work. Atleast, I had to. If i can find those steps I'll posted.
try this: unless you found a gb zip..

I havent looked but I am sure there is a nandroid or.zip of stock GB in the dev section. If not I just returned my phone to stock because I got a new one and I just wanted to mess around so went to my original GB from befor I played witht the phone and did a factory reset then made a nandroid copy of that on my old phone because the new one was used and the person had someone else do the rooting and flashing for him and they never made a backup of the original. So I took the nandroid backup from my old phone and restored it on the newer one and it worked perfectly. So If you need and it is allowed I can post the copy of that nandroid backup and that should work I think.
Note I am not an expert so if anyone knows better please chime in. But I think that should be okay to send back for warenty exchange. Unless they really look they wont know the difference. I'm sure that they can always tell if they try jhard enough. So when you are on the phone with them make sure you are polite and dont lose your temper for any reason because that will m ake them look harder for a reason not to help you. Thats just my advice. Good luck
You should flash the development section on your phone
Thanks. I cant seem to figure out how to flash those bin files
Now I've done it! I found this file 2x-v10b-1300166062-nvflash and flashed the "flash" app. Now my phone thinks its a p990. What have I done! How do I reverse this! It wont let me flash clockwork recovery anymore
HOT DAMN! I GOT IT! Finally found exactly what was looking for!

Hey guys. First off, I want to appologize if this is not the right section for my question. This is my first time here at your forums.
Anyways.....
My real question is...Does anyone have a nandroid that i can use for my i9023?!
I bought it two days ago. Got ahead of myself. Anyways long story short I can restore through clockworkmod recovery. But I can not flash any roms. kernels, anything. That is completely locked out. I need this phone for tomorrow. Hoping someone can save me a few hours of sleep. I need pretty much any version of a nandroid backup for nexus s i9023.
My phone does not have root anymore, but as i can not do anything else but clockworkmodrecovery (specificially the restore function.....) I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could send me any type of nandroid backup. I will try all of them. PLEASE!?
Also. I have been at this for approx 5 hours now. tried everything there is. but no installing a zip file. PERIOD. only thing i have gotten to work is the restore fucntion
Hey guys, I need a big time favor.
My girl's gTab was stolen
was due to my idiotic negligence, but **** happens right, I'm an optimistic sort of guy, so **** it, I've still got my Galaxy Note and some Jack Daniels
Now the favor.
I had the good sense to do a CWM backup of my girl's gtab ROM that I flashed. Obviously I'm the Mod junkie in this relationship, after all, I owned an HD2 and flashed every ROM from here to Russia
so I still have the CWM backup files but not the gTab. I want to get the data off teh cwm backup to restore to my Note.
So the favor I need is for one of you to download the CWM backup I uploaded, restore it on your gTab, download My Backup Root, then do a full backup, then upload it and send me the link. I really want to surprise her with al the restores of her "Bakery Store"and "Restaurant Story" and all the other apps she had on the gtab. I am entrusting one of you to the personal data, so please just back up the data and restore YOUR rom
If anyone is up for this, please let me know is this thread of via PM, and I will link you to the CWM file. hopefully someone is feeling generous.
thx guys.
Anyone willing to help me out with this at all?
sigh... bump
I guess I can try it since I'm about to install ice cream anyway which will blow my current os away. My boot loader is still 1.1 if that matters any. I still need to figure out how to upgrade it to 1.2 soon.
