Hi,
I am trying to restore a backup I made while on stock rom, I can restore the backup successfully but am stuck at the nexus logo on boot.
Only way to get my phone back is to wipe data/factory reset. Even if I just restore /data after wiping and booting the device I still get stuck at the boot logo.
Anyone got anything for me to try or have any similar experiences?

I saw that TWRP was updated to 2.3.3, so I first made a backup of boot and recovery partitions in TWRP and named the backup "recovery" with compression enabled. I then rebooted system to use Flash Image GUI and the device hung at the boot animation. I reflashed the kernel in fastboot, wiped cache and dalvik, and it still hangs. I can still boot into recovery (never actually updated). Do I need to reflash the ROM? Was running King Kang and b6.
Edit: Well ended up doing a full wipe restoring rom and tibu. Still no idea what happened though. Making a backup shouldn't mess anything up like this...
Hi, just recently I flashed my Backup ROM to retrieve contacts that I have lost. Before, I had only flashed the CleanROM and a theme from Wasabiwa3. But because my contacts were lost, I decided to start over and flash my Backup ROM. Using TWRP, I did. However, when I did, my phone hard bricked. It would not turn on, but would rather vibrate when I attempted. I have pulled the battery multiple times, plugged it into the computer, everything. Wasabiwa3 was able to get me out of my bricked phone. However, it seems as though my Backup is dead. I don't understand how restoring my Backup would cause my phone to brick. Why did that happen? Is there anything I can do to restore my Backup ROM/contacts?
Your backup is a ROM not a phone so how can a backup be dead? Also you didn't mention the name of the backup ROM. Nor did you say if you did what you supposed to do when flashing which wipe cache, dalvik and factory reset which you need to when switching from aosp and Touchwiz.
Make sure the backup contains a system partition back up within it, next wipe the system partition of your current rom and retry restoring from the backup. Or if you have a stock nandroid, use the advanced restore option to restore the system partition.

I flashed it but forgot to backup, stuck in boot loop (yellow sprint screen) ... So I backed up everything in TWRP... if I do a system restore /factory wipe, and then restore from twrp backup, will the bootloop go with it?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sadly, if you made the backup while your system was in a bootloop, that backup will bring back the bootloop when restored.
Sorry about that.
I recently decided to install Lineage OS to get basically stock Android. However, now I want to go back to the stock ROM. I created a backup in TWRP of system, data and boot partitions before I installed Lineage. Whenever I restore the backup the phone just boots to the "your device can't be trusted" screen, stays there for a while and reboots. After the reboot I just get straight into erecovery. I am currently on Lineage as I did a backup before restoring the old one. Any help on how I can get the backup to work?
hello, I have an issue..
I create complete rom backup with trwrp, but..
When I need to restore this backup , I restore it in TWRP, then reboot to OS but it NEVER boots up. It just stucks on white Sony logo and thats all
I have tryed wiping everything before 4restoring, and not wiping anything before restoring.. but my rom backup never boots up..actually it doesnt even start to load system OS never gets to bootup animation just stays on sony logo.. also tryed switching boot slot from A - B with twrp after restoring but no go.. please any ideas?
Also If I may.. have a second question regarding TWRP, when I install in system TWRP app, it never detects that twrp is installed .. maybe because xa2ultra doesnt have recovery partition or ? any solution to get twrp app to work when system is booted up?
no ideas why rom backup can't be restored? need ideas/help please..
is there any other way to make flashable rob backup excwpt in twrp wich doesnt work?
