Hello,
As of right now I have root revolver (with nanadroid backup of it). I was considering installing this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514658
Would I be able to use my nandroid backup of revolver to rollback if it's not what I expect? Also will I be able to unroot like you do in honeycomb (Install stock fw and recovery)? I'm a bit confused because people are telling me different things. Thanks
you have to nandroid backup then flash the rom that you were using when you did the backup or else you will bootloop
Hi, I've a Desire S, S-ON running CM7 and would just like to know if it's ok to flash the boot.img found in the nandroid backup of my stock rooted rom (after the stock rom restore). Or do I perhaps have to find another one?
If in case I need another, there was a dropbox link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1616741 [Collection | 1.26 & 1.28] Fastboot Pack v1.2 but 1st) I'm in China ATM and dropbox is blocked so can't download it and 2nd) I wouldn't know/don't understand what 1.26 or 1.28 are or how they correspond.
Any advice is appreciated
When you took a nandroid backup of your stock ROM, the boot.img would also be backuped up
Just do a nandroid restore and flash the boot.img in the nandroid backup from fastboot

Help! I want to restore my phone to a previous nandroid backup, however, CWM stops on restoring boot.img ......everything else can be restore except for boot.img.... passes md5, but just gets error when flashing... now can't boot.... stuck at the boot screen...

Are you restoring a nandroid for an ICS rom within blue CWM recovery? If so, and if everything else flashed successfully, you can try flashing an ICS kernel image using Heimdall or Odin. If that doesn't work, then you have a borked nandroid restore and need to Odin or Heimdall back to stock Gingerbread and start over.
If you happen to be trying to restore a Gingerbread backup (which I don't think is the case, since you mention a boot.img), then you need to get back to red CWM recovery to restore the Gingerbread nandroid backup.

Download one of the MANY fine heimdall or Odin packages here. They are available in rooted or unrooted.

I flashed few custom ROMs in last few days. I used to restore to stock ROM using CWM recovery using backup but now backup itself is not working and I want my data with stock ROM back anyhow. I have nandroid backup copy on my pc. Is there any way I can restore it from PC?
I downloaded original firmware i.e. ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE.ftf but when I try to flash using flashtool, device gets disconnected automatically. I am not able to flash. Plz tell me the solution.

rom manager from google play lets you download backup's from pc or cloud storage but im not sure if its for the free users as i have the premium licence but its worth a check. with the flashtool problem try reinstalling the drivers or flashtool its self.
Not the same question, but similar.
When installing CM10 FXP on my stock 4.0.4 Xperia J, i did fastboot flash boot boot.img then entered cwm and made backup.
As far as i know, flashing boot.img erases only kernel and init image, so except wrong boot.img (4.1 JB kernel) in cwm backup, all other data is intact. And now, if i want to get back to more-or-less stock is it sufficient to use vengence (or any other 4.0) kernel boot.elf, rename it to boot.img and put its md5sum into file containing image md5 sums?
Plus, is it possible to get stock firmware 7.5 kernel in boot.img format to create functioning stock backup?

You can use vengeance, or open the .ftf you used for flashing and extract kernel.sin from it.That's the stock kernel.Open it with 7zip or similar, and you can see the kernel.sin straight from there.It's flashable from flashtool.
I lost my nandroid backup and need to restore to stock.
All the links in the forums for stock roms seem to be too old and dead.
Does anyone have a stock rom file they could share for the Verizon version i815?
