Is there a guide to Nand+Ext backups anywhere? I know how to do the basic nand backup, but I want to do nand+ext. Thanks.
I'm using Amon RA's Recovery & i have a nandroid+ext backup option, does Clockwork Mod not have this option?

Seriously dude, ask about Clockwordmod in your own thread.

Hey guys, need help going back to Amon Ra from Clockworkmod. Any help will be appreciated.. Thanks
Install ROM Manager and use it to flash Amon RA, it should be at the bottom of the main screen. You may have to let it reflash CWM first, but it goes back and forth easily.

Easy way? Install RomManager there's a option to flash an alternative recovery (Amon')

I think you are confused,if you do a nand back up using rom manager,then you need to restore it with clockworkmod (via recovery or rom manager) but you can not resore nor back up with Amon_ra using rom manager.
I used to have the Amon Ra recovery then tried the clockworkmod recovery. I want my nand backup from the amon ra but I can't restore it via clockworkmod.

Copy the /sdcard/nandroid/ folder to /sdcard/clockworkmod/nandroid (not 100% sure on the second path, I'll be able to tell you later tonight when I flash the nightly).
Voila, now you have your AR backups, in CWM.
So, if I understand.
I have Amon Ra and want to dl Rom Manager/Premium and flash CW Mod. I will then have a usable option at bottom to toggle between Ra and CW. Restore backups thru whichever one I used to back it up.
But, when I flash back to Amon Ra, I need to close out of Rom Manager and use Amon Ra as I have been doing.
drmacinyasha, I like your idea, but not sure I know how to do that safely. I am not good at ADB or Root Explorer if that is an option. Or do you just mount and do it on the pc?

Oops,
Guess the first part of my question was answered on page 1. These Looong threads are hard to keep up with.
Can someone give me a guide? I install need it for an evo and incredible.

The long way is to use ADB and a couple of files. The short way is to download ROM manager and use it to flash either clockwork or amon RA
Both cases require you to have root on your phone already

+1 on using ROM Manager, it's so easy even a caveman can do it!
Yah easiest way to change from amon ra to clockwork is to use Rom manger and flash the clockwork recovery. Although not sure why you would want to do that since amon ra makes better nand backups....

And can properly wipe the dalvik cache...
My guess is that OP is upgrading to RA 1.8.0
Guys it doesnt have amon ra recovery in rom manager at the bottom.
The flash alternate recovery is
Ra_gmn recovery v1.7.6
Is that amon ra?

go to market and update your version of rom manager - it should say RA Recovery v1.8.0 under flash alternate recovery.
Well it doesn't say that and Its up to date. Should I get the premium rom manager?

I was on the AMon RA Recovery v1 8.0 and I could use quickboot to get into recovery and do nandroid backups easily. Now I flashed the clockwork recovery and tried using the full version of Rom Manager to do a nandroid and all it does is ask me what to name the file and reboot me to a white screen with options to reboot, recovery, usb toggle and that is about it, no option to do a nandroid backup. When I thought it was supposed to do it itself seeing as that is what the menu says.
I guess I need to reflash the RA Recovery and do it manually. But before I try anything else is this clockwork app good for anything? Can it install ROMs ok or has this app been forgotten and is no longer updated?
Because Clockwork does not restore a nandroid you made using RA, and vice-versa.
I know that. I need to know if clockwork is broken currently. I saw a similar thread for a different phone and they are having the same problem.
I just went ahead and flash the RA recovery so I could make a nandroid backup. Then I can flash the clockwork recovery again and then try installing CM... Nah screw it clockwork is buggy. I'll just download CM6 and install it via RA.
I used clockwork to make a backup. You have to go into the recovery menu, and once in there, then you have an option to do a backup. They probably should have re-worded that top menu option to recovery/backup instead of just recovery.
I think CW and Rom Manager are both buggy in my experience I would stick with RA.
i just flashed ra recovery from clockwork where do i put the cm6 zip so it can be flashed? also where do i put my clockwork recovery nand backup so ra recovery can see it?

Put the zip anywhere and clockwork backups won't work on ra.

If it's the new RA recovery(2.1.1 I think? or 2.2?), it can be anywhere. I haven't used it yet (still on 1.8.0, if it's not broke, don't fix it), so I don't know how to navigate folders with it. On RA 1.8.0, the zip has to be on the root of your sd card for it to see it. And as the other guy said, you can't use clockwork nandroid backups on RA, and vice versa. So I suggest making backups with both, definitely is safe.
I have a backup that was created in Clockwork but now I am running Amon ra 3.07 how can I restore that backup?
I created a file in Mac. How do I open it in Windows???
Get it??
Actually, there's an Amon Ra Style Recovery in the Dev section that will restore CW Nandroids

Its never worked for me,if i backed up with cwm i couldnt restore with Amon Ra or TWRP.I think it has something to do with the MD5 code.

You'll have to use that amon style ra recovery where you can restore both recoveries.
Where can I get the CW latest zip file? I searched in forums but no luck
You can try this Amon Ra style recovery. It is supposed to work for CW and Amon Ra backups.

Download rom manager from the market, then select flash alternate recovery > select the latest CWM version.
Or.... {Drumroll}
