I own a Galaxy Grand 2 and I use CWM for backup and restore alot while switching between roms, tho I sometimes happen to have the same problem as yours
But I managed to fix it whith a wipe data/Factory Reset after the restore is completed the n boot into the system yoy restored and then do an advance restore for data only but don't wipe anything this time!
This should help you if you still face the same problem consider changing/Upgrading your costume recovery or reflash your original firmware (usind odin) to clean the phone up (but make sure yoy don't downguard your firmware as it may softbrike your phone)
Hit the Thanks button If I helped you!

thanks for your advice. but unfortunately it didnot work for me.
i tried the way you explaint the process.

[Q] Can't restore data with nandroid

Hello everyone, I immediately apologize for my English and if I wrote in the wrong place.
I have a Nexus One (Vodafone) that I've recently rooted with the dolomiti's guide (without losing warranty). After trying for a few days cyanogen 6 rc2 I wanted to restore the backup created with Rom manager before wiping and installing cyano. Unfortunately the recovery freezes every time at "restoring data" in a file named "event_data:lotsofnumber.txt". I need to remove the battery to restart the nexus that after rebooting starts with the stock frf91.
I tried several times but always crashes at the same point ... anything I can do?Is there a chance to complete my backup?
I have the same issue, and got no troubleshot.
If I do a backup it stops saving a data_event"numbers".txt
Can anyone help in this problem, actually i can't do any backups or restore them

[Q] Infuse won't boot after restoring nandroid !

Well,this query is slightly old because later I did a stock restore through Odin ..
But still ,
I wanted to restore my nandroid backup .. I was in CWM and selected to restore my last nandroid backup ,, It completed with an error which I don't remember now ..
When I selected REBOOT SYSTEM NOW , it just simply turned off and turned on with usual SAMSUNG logo,and stuck there for a couple of minutes ,, At first I thought it was due to first time restore ,but after waiting for more than 10 minutes,it was still on SAMSUNG logo
I removed the battery and inserted it back,,but still the same thing ....
I don't know what went wrong
So the query is : Do I have to clear anything like dalvik cache etc before doing a restore like I did before flashing a new ROM ???
It's my first post on this site,and would be glad if got a complete answer,,bcz I want to flash some roms again and don't want to resort to Odin to go back to stock as I want everything to be as it was before flashing.
Thanks...
might I ask what ROM you are using now ? in my experience, I think if you want to keep everything the same as it was (setup, password..ect) before flashing a new ROM then don't flash any new ROM because it might cause force close and such ...
a google account will help you remember the app you have previously
Helium will help you backing up data from the app
Apex launcher has the option of backup your previous settings
regards,
Well, I am not worried about my data or anything ,coz I had already made a backup of pics,videos etc
The actual question is :
What might have caused the phenomenon???!!!! Do I need to clear dalvik cache or anything before restoring nandroid ??
well it doesn't hurt clear BEFORE and AFTER flashing/restore - so I do that every time
Still haven't got the answer ...

Need help with backup

Hello, xdadevelopers members and admins.
Is there way to Complete/Full Backup all android data,sms , etc. ?
Samsung Galaxy S II Plus Android version: 4.2.2
Thanks, KabutoLT.
Backing up the System, Data, and Boot partitions will hold all of your data at the time of the backup. Restoring those backed up partitions will take you back to how your phone was at the time you backed it up.
i need reinstall my phone. but i want backup. what soft can do?
You should try to looking for backup tool in Setting.
It backup everything you have on your device.
You can use apps which help you update your data on server. Update all your contacts on google.

[Completed] Help with restoring backup from TWRP

Hi everyone. I recently installed cyanogenmod 13 on my s4, only to find a Google play services error every few seconds. So I decided to flash Gapps 6.0 to resolve the issue. Unfortunately I got a new pop-up, "setup wizard has stopped" which rendered my phone useless. I had no choice but to reset my phone and reinstall cm13 and Gapps 6.0. My last resort backup attempt to save my stuff was a twrp backup. Now I want to restore my data, but it will also restore my broken rom that makes my phone unusable. Can anybody please help me find a way to restore my data without restoring the broken cm13.. I'll go back to cm12.1 that I was running before if need be. Thank you all so much in advance.

Hello,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
You can try restoring the /data partition only.It's recommended to do a clean flash when you move to CM13 from CM12.1
