Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Have you tried only restoring the boot and system partitions and then using Nandroid Manager to restore the data?

Hey friends ,
I flashed MIUI rom 2.2.24 using clockworkmod recovery and I wanted all my data and messages back but when I restored the data from recovery then my Phone started up but when I tap on the android to start MIUI crashes and whenever I erase the data only then miui works . Please help guys .... I want to use miui with all my previous data .
I have an HTC Sensation 4G . Please help guys ... I just dont know what to do .. I want to use MIUI bad !
The data structure might be incompatible with the ROM causing the crashes. Did you use Titanium to backup?

I didn't use titanium . But I used 4ext recovery to backup though . Tried clockworkmod recovery too but when I restore my data from recovery mode and the device boots up , and after sliding down to unlock , I tap the android to begin but it doesnt work and doesn't go further . what do I do
Earlier i was using another rom which is by mike 1986 android revolution . i tried titanium once too but when i switch from the rom to miui without restoring data , i need to reach to atleast the homescreen to restore it back ... i am just stuck
Hey guys, i need your help.
I backed up my media(music,photos), contacts ... using the LG BACKUP application. I backed up while beeing in stock KitKat. Now i got a .lbf file including all my data. I backed up the LG BACKUP APP using titanium backup.
I flashed Cyanogenmod and tried to reinstall the LG BACKUP app, but i couldnt install it.
I cant restore the backup now, which means my media ist avaiable for me. Is there and way to install the stock LG apps in cyanogenmod or is there any way i can restore the backup without flashing back to stock, restoring it there , put data in SD card and flash back to cyanogen ?
Thanks
Hi,
This is my first post on XDA, so please forgive if i miss some of the things !! So i will start with the issue i am facing. I was running Prism Barebone v14.6 on my S4 i9500, i was trying to install the Xposed Framewrok for Lollipop but somehow i missed the part where it said that "Xposed it not yet working for Samsung TW roms and you will end up in bootloop if you flash it".
So as expected i ended up in bootloop, so i tried to restore my Nandroid backup from Philz recovery. Everything went just fine in the recovery but i was again stuck in bootloop and my phone was not proceeding from Samsung logo loading screen. So i flashed the PB rom again and restored my apps and data with Titanium Backup.
Since then i am having strange issue that for some reason i am not able to restore my Nand backups even after creating the fresh nandroid backups. I was creating the Nandroid backup using "Online nandroid backup" tool; so i thought maybe the issue could be with this app(though it worked just fine on my previous rom Omega v27).
So finally i thought of creating the Nandroid backup from PhilZ recovery and the weird thing was nandroid backup creation failed at "/system" saying "Error backing up /system".
So please guys help me understand what exactly went wrong and how can i fix this. I am facing this issue from last 2 days and i have tried everything which could think of, so i need help from you Android Gurus out here !!!
Thanks in advance !!

Have you tried TWRP ? PhilZ development has been stopped, so you should think about switching someday.
I would do it like this:
-Make a nadroid backup with your custom recovery
-Perform a full wipe
-Flash latest stock firmware via ODIN
-Let the system boot up
-Flash custom recovery and check if the error persists
tried TWRP as well however i was still getting the same issue(boot up process getting stuck at samsung logo screen). Will flashing the Stock Firmware reset the recovery also to Stock recovery ?
Can anyone please reply !!

Yup, stock firmware will restore everything. Flash it as i linked it earlier. Once done, perform a factory reset in stock recovery before you boot up android.
Hi guys,
after many atempts to find solutions and several hours without success I hope someone here can help me.
My configuration:
Phone: Nexus 4 16GB
ROM: Resurrection Remix LP v5.3.9
Kernel: 3.4.106-unleashed-101u+
Recovery: CWM 6.0.4.7 touch
This combination really works well. But when I boot into recovery, making a nandroid backup and afterwards restore it, I get a bootloop with the boot animation from the rom. The backup itself has around 2GB. Both, backup and restore processes are confirmed by cwm without errors.
I already tried to clean cache and dalvik cache before I made the backup, but restoring also doesn't work. A dirty flash of the ROM after cwm restoring (as a read in another thread) didn't work.
Is it possible that my cwm doesn't backup the preload partition (mentioned here)? Can the kernel or the ROM be the reason? Any other hints or a guesses?
You can update your CWM recovery or try other, like TWRP.
With TWRP you can change what partitions you want to backup
Sorry bad english
Upgrade of CWM is not possible, as 6.0.4.7 is already the latest version.
In the meanwhile I did some further tests: CWM 6.0.4.7 without touch is not working, too: The N4 gets stuck to the rom boot animation.
TWRP backs the same partitions up as CWM does, but works! I'm happy to be able to make and restore nandroid backups.
Still I'm wondering why nandroid backups using my former favorite recovery CWM don't work
Hey there guys, im having trouble restoring my Rom backups through twrp recovery since im on cm 12.1 i had done nandroid backups of my stock and cm12 Roms. The other day i tried going back to previous rom but when i go to twrp/ restore option...there is nothing even though i have the backup folders in my external sd. I tried moving the folders to internal storage also to check if it shows in twrp but nothing there....what do i do, help me cuz this is essential for changing Roms and stuff.
Well I think I got the reason behind it. When the system partition is wiped, the backup that is created before the system being wiped is not read. I tried it my self, I flashed cm 12.1 doing it fail proof method (wiping cache/dalvik/data and SYSTEM partitions)and before flashing the ROM I did a nandroid back up which when I went in the restore option in twrp was there before flashing the ROM . once I flashed the ROM, after everything gets booted and all I go to twrp, even though I have the backup folders I just doesn't show in twrp restore. That's what I've figured. Is this really the reason or there's something else being it.....?
