I recently backed up my rooted but stock Tab2, 7.0 and loaded an ICS rom. I wanted to go back to my stock but when I try to restore, I am getting an error that the MD5 sum is not matching. Anybody have any idea how I might be able to use this backup?
Have you tried to flash another version of cwm ?
Or try to flash stock rom via odin from for example www.samfirmware.com

Haven't done another CWM. I did flash another rom but I'm going to be sticking with it so I don't need the back up anymore. It was just odd as it was the first time I'd seen that happen.

I once experienced the same thing - it turned out that nandroid backups initiated using ROM Manager couldn't be restored using recovery and vice versa. If you decide to try again try both.

I know about nvflash but it seems rather risky and complicated, is there a way to just flash a .zip from cwm to get stock recovery?

I hope so, that is why I immediately did a backup of the original rom as soon as I installed Clockworksmod.

Flash to vanilla stock - see the FAQ area (in my sig) for links.
I flashed the lasted stock via clockworkmod and it actually flashed recovery, as well. So it should get you to a 100% vanilla setup.
Can any one tell me what i did wrong?
I used a I727UCALC4_OneClick package to flash my at&t i727 to android 4.0.3. For some reason my home button and search button did not work so i said to return back to stock.
I flashed the phone with SGH-I727-UCKJ2-k0nane thru ODIN to return to stock 2.3.5 . I then tried to do a OTA update to 2.3.6. The update downloads and starts installing , reboots the phone and fails to finish.
Any help please ? Thanks
I tried doing this myself last night. Remember you will lose your root once taking it to 2.3.5, so re root using Odin, then, reboot. Then follow the root instructions as outlined by user k0nane here at xda. Then get into clockwork mod recovery mode and restore to the backup version you did of 2.3.6...much easier process than trying to flash stock. Hope that helps.

You might have renamed the backup, the backup might be corrupt, or you did the backup with a different version of cwm than you are trying to restore it with.
If this helps I got here a copy of my mhx lite 2.3.6 I made before going to 4.0.3

so cwm doesnt restore a backup if it was not made with the same cwm version ?
i was able to fix the md5 mismatch and it restored successfully, however it does not boot now. It stalls and the samsung logo.
Try using the restore I linked, something just seems wrong with yours

Sometimes it does and sometimes it has problems
Also did you flash the right modem as well?
Correct me if I'm wrong but cwm doesn't backup the modem as I recall

Its mhx superlite 3.1 but if the rom will work you can later on flash whatever you want. Atm you seem to be stuck with an unusable phone so anything is better.
Go to sammobile.com
make an account
go to firmware section
type i727 in the box
scroll down and download the tar
extract with 7zip
Flash in odin
Then drink beer and such
i was able to flash tru cwm a att rom that worked. Everything works ok now.
It is possible to transfer my data from the backup into this working rom ?
Just flash modem. To match firmware....

UCLA3 modem, firmware and rom were flashed and everything works great. I only need to transfer my user data from the backup. Can i flash only the user data to the phone from that original backup?

pretty risky if the backups corrupt anyway... but you can try (i would make a back up first)
I used the CWM to install CNA b4.zip, the Codename Android package.
Now all my phone does is boot into a menu that says:
install wipe
backup restore
mount settings
advanced reboot
How do I get into ICS?

sounds like he lost root. You will probably need to use heimdall one click to get back to kj6. Use the one I packaged that can be found here.

Then flash to ICS and then to the rom you want.
I had this happen to me when I tried to flash CNA b4. No matter what I did I could not get out of recovery when trying to flash. I thought for sure I would have to go back to stock but I just fully wiped and reinstalled AOKP with no problems. It may have been a bad download or something but I had that issue as well.
Yesterday I rooted my 8013 note with UEALGB software and tried to make a nandroid in high on android cwm. It would reboot recovery everytime i started the backup process. So i flashed TWRP through goo manager app then tried to make a nandroid and the same thing would happen. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: I just tried to flash the stock recovery and it seems like I am stuck with cwm or twrp. I flashed stock recovery through Odin and it said it was successful but when I reboot into recovery I still have custom recovery.
Edit: Seems to only happen when I try to backup the system partition.

I get the same problem, my device will reboot about a third of the way through the backup on both cwm and twrp.

Zeodmaxs root without recovery first then I went back and flashed high on android cwm through Odin later in the night because I wanted to start playing around with stuff.

The root injected image causes problems. I think you're gonna have to ODIN the original image back on it to fix it. Search around, it's here somewhere.
Go for method #2 next time. Roots without an issue.
Did you flash the the Superuser.zip file after flashing Zedomaxs cwm.tar fie in odin? This is needed to get true root priveleges.
Not sure why you can't reflash a stock rom though, that's how I've always gotten rid of root access to revert back to stock...

I tried to unbrick my tablet using pretty easy recovery installer, and now my TF101 won't detect it's own sdcard. I tried factory resetting, flashing a new ROM, even tried restoring an old backup. Nothing works. The strange thing is, it was working fine before on those same roms. It wasn't until I managed to run the full exploit that that happened. Please, help... I hate this thing... I just want to wipe it so I can sell this thing! Can anybody tell me how ti fix this thing?!
Use easy flash and go back to stock ROM... it will remove superuser and everything else and give you a completely stock Asus... follow the instructions on easy flash and you should be able to solve it..

You can't flash stock ROM using recovery.. use easy flash to push stock ROM... read instructions on that thread and follow them carefully...
