Hey guys, I made a backup of the android ROM LegoIce using the Custom ROM Manager, but now when I want to take a backup, it shows MD5 checksum fail. And when I tried restore using another backup, it showed data not found!!
Help Guys..
May Be Some Of Your Backup Files Have Been Deleted By Mistake.

I'm using teracopy with MD5 check. So missing/deleting any data is most probably not the problem..
Any advice on how to extract useful data from this non-working backup?
Can I skip the data check during restore process? And is data an important part in backup?

No You Can't
You Should Now Try To Make Backup With CWM Or TWRP Or With ROM Manager Premium

Easy solution that worked for me is :
create a new text document [ empty file ] and replace its extension , txt --> .md5 it will look like : nandroid.md5 .
now replace the file or paste it inside clock work backup folder .... not it should work properly !
press thank button if it helped !

to restore it run efs_restore.bat /efs_restore.sh where you have your backup file.

Run it using terminal?

Or simply copy the efs folder (the backup) onto / overwriting any exisiting files.
You can use root explorer or any other file manager that has root access (even a shell)
As mentioned in another thread, have you tried EFSpro?
It might help you out with restoring EFS folder! Take a look!

If you use the EFS Tool, within the zip file, there is a run efs_restore.bat (Windows) /efs_restore.sh (MAC-Linux) file. Just run the file with the phone connected via USB.
Here's the EFS Tool:

I think it's the backup? I'm not sure, Google will tell u more.

Dude my bad i did not search!! Thanks so much...
So here's what i understood-
The blob file makes a common back up file for all backups n only the difference in diff backups are stored in the folder' backup' right?
In other words when we make a backup
Only the files that are different are backed up.the rest are restored from blob
So both backup n restore well be faster

Re loneagl, do you need to to backup for a very long time？It took me at least 7 mins.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda app-developers app
Yep..it stays at 'freeing up space' for long time.(i actually rebooted once thinking it had hung up)..the actual backup is only about 20 mb..the blob file about 800mb

Does changing backup folder name cause md5 check to fail? I renamed all those numbers into proper description of what’s inside and now it won’t restore. Not sure if that could be the problem.

No, folder name is not cause of md5 checksum

I found ndroid.md5 in backup it contains md5 of each file of backup
But how
Hi guys,
I have started this life saver thread (lol) for those who are getting md5 mismatch error while restoring backups in cwm..:screwy:
Dont delete the precious backups which show error in restoring due to md5 midmatch..
There are lot of methods to fix this but they all require terminal,adb n such things.. but I bet My method is d easiest..
Let's start,
Things required..
Nothing!!! Except a good file explorer which has a option to create new file.. I prefer root explorer but it costs to buy..
Cautionon't rename any folders in the backup Coz it makes ur backup useless..
1.Now open your file explorer & navigate to your clockworkmod/backup/(choose the backup which u want to restore)/ folder on your sd card and u will see a file called nandroid.md5 which contains all d info about the rom on which d backup was made..
2.Back up & then Delete the nandroid.md5 file and in options create a new file & name it as nandroid.md5 exactly as it was before (DON'T USE CAPS WHILE NAMING)..
3.Make sure u don't touch anything else & exit your file explorer..
4.Enter into cwm recovery and restore the backup which u modified.. Yuppy!! Restore successful..
OTHER CASES FOR RESTORING FAILURE
1.A bad or damaged backup
2.Problem with kernels related to mounting & unmounting /system,/data,/cache
3.Some have reported error in restoring bcoz of some folder created in system by root all data 2 sd app..
4.Renamed backups
If this method dint work for u then pls search & try other complicated methods..
Pls report after using this method and press thanks if this helped you..

What if there is no TWRP recovery installed, only CWM 6.0 version installed.

What if the recovery installed before ROM flashing was not from TWRP but from CWM 6.0 version? And what if the backup was faulty with error message " failed to mount data" but the person continued the ROM flashing with a hope that everything will be fine, but it wasn't the Cyanogen 10.2 nightly was too faulty for the Samsung Galaxy i9001. Now I'm stuck with the blue Cyanogen rotating logo, unable to reboot and unable to go back to my default system, MD5 mismatch error. Can I do the steps mentioned through a PC, by accessing the folders and files inside the device by USB?
+1 tnx work on my galaxy note i717D CWM 6.0.4.3
Thanks

That happens in some cases, means your backup didnt finished (probably you didnt had enought space for it)
Just create an new file nandroid.md5, and try to restore it You have nothing to loose
B.Regards
Thanks
Thanks dude. BTW I anyone has problem locating the nandroid.md5 file it's in the /data/media/clockwork... on the N4 atleast

So I've deleted and remade the file only to get the exact error. Any other way of fixing this??

Let me close this thread:
Install ES File Explorer and let your friends install it too.
Once installed, navigate to apps manager inside ES File Explorer
Get all your friends onto the same wifi connection (this is only for easiness sake)
Select the apps you want to send
Click "send" in overflow menu (where it says more)
friends must have ES open to receive via "send" method, otherwise use wifi-direct or bluetooth
Profit
