[Q] Does nandroid backup sdcard? - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does the nandroid backup also backup sdcard.
I am about to format my sd card and I already saved what matters like photos and nandroid backups, but im wondering if anything goes wrong will the nandroid backup fix the problem or do I have to backup to my pc (which sadly doesnt have the space)

Nope, just the phone. If you app2sd then it will back up the ext partition that the apps are on but that about as good as it gets.
You could always back it up to a usb drive or dvd-rw if you have them.

[Q] Titanium Backup restored to internal memory

Ok, i've just done flashing Virtuous ROM on my DZ. Want to restore all my apps backups using Titanium Backup....

[Q] less MB after restoring a CWM backup

Hi guys,
I noticed something when restoring a Nandroid Backup with CWM 2.5.1.3:
1. I have 870MB left on the internal memory
2. I make a Nandroid backup and flash something else
3. then I make a full wipe and restore the Nandroid Backup
4. I have 820MB left on the internal memory
Did anyone else noticed this problem??
Does anyone know if this problem is gone with CWM 3.0.0.6/3.0.2.5 ????
Thank you very much
Hi lilil
The CWM 2.51.3 and 3.0.0.6 has nothing to do with "consuming" memory.
After you restore back the back-up, do you delete the back-up? Cause the back-up will obviously eat space.
Unless you delete that back-up, it will definitely takes up memories. You can check whether you have any back-ups left in ROM Manager itself.
Tap ROM Manager >> Manage and Restore Back-ups >> Hold the Back-up(if any) and tap delete
Cheers =)
But aren't the backups on the SD card ????
Backups are indeed on the sdcard. Would kinda defeat the point otherwise.

[Q] Restore Nandroid after Partition

Is it possible to do a restore nandroid after I partitioned?
My original nandroid backup was unpartitioned, and then I partitioned my SD card to install a new rom that required it. Before partitioning it, I made a backup of my SD Card with my nandroid backups.
If I wanted to revert back to the original rom, can I just copy over the original nandroid on my partitioned SD card and restore it?
Yea, the nandroid only restores partitions that were there, so if it wasn't there before, it won't be affected.
So I can restore a nandroid that was not originally on a partitioned SD from a now partitioned SD?

[Q] Nandroid Backup - SD Card Apps

Hey guys, just got a question about Nandroid.
If I have apps that I moved to the SD card, will Nandroid backup these data? That is, let's say I did a Nandroid backup, and copied out the cwm folder from SD card. If I now:
- wipe SD
- copy back the cwm folder
- restore backup from cwm
Will I get back my application data and settings for those apps moved to the SD card?
Thanks!
Yes.

Yes. You will see a .android_secure during the process being backupped.
Also if you move using Link2SD, it will backup as sd_ext.

[Q] [Solved] Unable to write on internal memory card (not a joke please really help)

Hi all,
I have a big problem, i promised i searched before nut i didn't find anything useful about it.
I installed the Ditto Note 3 v5 on my device, and everything was fine, but after I installed agni kernel, the system went crazy, i did follow the exact procedure, or if i made a mistake i didn't on purpose.
Whatever i had a nandroid backup before installing agni kernel, but now i found my device impossible to write on internal storage, meanwhile the external is fine I can do anything i wish, but the the internal storage no way to create even a folder or a simple file.
I have done that with TWRP 2.7.0.2 as a recovery, and I am really in deeply **** (sorry for the word), because I heavily use my device in my work, I am a "soccorritore", that means like paramedic in USA in ambulance, so it is really the truth i am in deeply ****, because I have all my documents in the internal storage in the nandroid backup, but i don't know how to restore them.
The nandroid backup is 4.58GB, but when i install the nandroid backup the internal storage is 7.5GB left, before with all the data was 5.8GB left in internale storage, so it is missing 1.7GB of data.
PLEASE!
I really need help and as soon as possible, I do not care about myself but documents and people schedules
Hi there, I've also restored one time my Rom through TWRP and couldn't write on the internal Storage anymore. TWRP has a problem with that, use Philz Recovery in future.
So, do you have your documents etc. in some Apps saved or in your internal Storage?
Yes, i do have documents in backup data. The problem is not the rom, in worst cases I reinstall again a new one, but what about the documents?

Well like I said/asked, if your documents are in some Apps, backup them using Titanium Backup on your SD Card. If your files are on the internal storage, you can simply flash a Firmware through Odin and nothing should happen to your data. Or just connect your device to your PC and copy all your files over to your PC.

The problem are not the backup applications, but the documents as I said, they are not in an application, they are in the nandroid backup created from TWRP recovery and the nandroid backup is an md5 format.
You are telling me that titanium backup can restore nandroid backups?
I even thought to use odin, if it can be useful.
No Titanium Backup can't restore backups, it just backups all your apps + data.
A Recovery doesn't backup your whole Internal Storage, it just backups your System Partition etc.
So my thought were, just flash a Firmware through Odin and everything should be alright I guess.
Oh man! I love you
I still like women but I think you know what I mean, I used odin and I restored the entire backup to the device, but still not able to write on the internal storage, but who cares I reflash e new rom, the most important is i can transfer the documents and the data to the external storage and to a computer. I learned a lesson today, I can't describe how do I feel now, and there are no words to describe how much I thank you
