[Q] Can't boot after making backup

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...

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.1 Stuck On Bootanimation?

Hello XDA
I tried updating from Cyanogenmod 10.1 to 10.2 nightly( I understand it was development), and my phone froze on starting apps (cleared cache), and never booted. Next boot it stayed in a boot loop, so I decided to restore from a backup. I wiped my system and proceeded to restore both system and boot (didn't want to override my apps so I unchecked the rest), and then cleared caches again to be safe. Now it is in a bootanimation loop and has been so for 5+ minutes. What could possibly be the cause of this? Is there any way to fix this without having to wipe my apps and data (I have a backup of system, boot, android_secure).
Thanks,
ccrama

Did you flash the boot with fastboot?

No, I updated with the CM updater. It did all the installing/wiping, but got me stuck in the original boot loop. Now, I used a backup to restore my old system files (from 10.1), but it is still in a boot loop D:
EDIT: I'm on TWRP and the backup was a nandroid backup

Give it a try to flash boot with fastboot. Your can extract it from your backup.

CWM backup restore

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?

Bootloop to recovery after CWM restore

I am using CWM 6.0.4.7. I took a backup of ROM last night and installed latest version of it. But it was quite laggy. When I tried to restore the CWM backup, it got stuck in bootloop and keeps booting into the recovery. Can someone help? Thanks.

Did CWM state that the restore was successful?

Yeah, it did.
Edit : Anyhow it said, it couldn't find .android_secure. But it succeeded saying 'Skipping the restore of .android_secure'.

Try wiping cache. If that doesn't work, you will have to wipe data and Dalvik too.

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?
