So I try a different Rom about every 2 weeks. All of a sudden ,last week I tried one of the liquid acer roms. Afterwards I went to restore a backup and shortly after starting ,I got an error sayin use adb to restore. Tried an earlier backup and it works but titanium backup only restores some of my apps and the market doesn't work. If I hit ok,install in market it does nothing. So I wipe everything and try a fresh install ( tried virus ,azreal, ava) azreal 3 has been my daily. And still same problem with market but now titanium won't restore any apps. It just sits there with the progress pop up on screen but doesn't do anything. Only recent changes. Updated pri to 1.90 ,reverted to 1.77 to try that. And using amon ra 1.80 ,tried goin to ra 2.1 but still no dice. Has sumpin on my SD card got corrupted or what
Try formatting your sd card.
Swyped From Eva Running Myn's RLS4.95 or My Rom!
I had recently done that bout thanksgiving but I'll try it again. Thanks
I get the same error with aman ra wanting my to restore nand from adb. It started sometime around the 3.70 upgrade which was when I upgraded PRI to 1.90. I switched back to clockwork 2.6.0.1 but haven't tried to restore a backup yet.
i think when amon ra tells you to nand from adb that means that you dont have enough battery power to do the recovery. i think the battery should ne at like 30 %
Got a question i see everyone write borked wtf is that??

Hey guys!
I made the mistake of trying to run an animation I downloaded on my phone while running Go Launcher. It of course, didn't work. I went ahead, wiped the data and then went to restore and tried to restore my nandroid and it told me:
Oops! Something went wrong!
I reflashed CM7 and did it all over again. My question is, what could have "gone wrong?"
Why did this happen? I'm using Amon Ra. If anyone could help me, that would be AWESOME! Thanks in advance guys!
Md5 sum mismatch, or corrupt IMG, bad block write, many choices, there is recovery log you can view if you move log to sdcard and repeat the error

Make sure you have a fully charged battery when restoring your nandroid. I think if it's below 50%, you'll get the error. It's happened to me and after I put a fresh battery in, the restore went through without a hitch. I use Amom RA 2.2.1.

This. Also, on the advanced options of RA there is an option to copy recovery.log to the sd card. That will show you the details of the error.

This makes sense. I was at 40%. I wasn't worried because I have the seidio 3500 mah battery. I guess Amon Ra was just trying to watch my back, hahaha. Thanks guys!

Yeah, I had my apps backed up with titanium backup so I flashed cm7 on my phone again and brought my apps back. At the end, it was good this happened. The apps I said "I'll recover with titanium backup later" were the apps I didn't use but didn't delete because I thought I'd use then again. Now I realize I don't really care for them so now I have more internal space, hahaha!

OK.
I need some serious help!
I have an EVO that I rooted with UNREVOKED about a month ago
This afternoon, I tried to flash to the new Synergy Rom with the cool Sense UI, BUT!! Dumb me, who was up working all night long was not reading correctly and flashed the INCREDIBLE ROM.
Yeah Yeah I know, dumb thing
I obviously got an error and then tried to restore my Nandroid backups that I had previously made.
These caused errors too..which they never had before.
I pulled the battery and then couldn't even get into clockwork mod.
I was thankfully able to flash Clockwork MOD to at least be able to get into a recovery screen.
I did so, and flashed my Myn 2.2 ROM which thankfully installed.
Tonight, I went back to try to flash the ROM that I had originally wanted to flash and the flash was complete.
HOWEVER, when I rebooted, it just kept going to the white HTC screen, hanging and then rebooting to the white HTC screen over and over.
I tried to start all over but doing a data wipe/factory restore and to wipe the Dalvik Cache..
When I did this, I got an error:
E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcb1k0p2
File exists.
I was able to get back to my Myn 2.2 but things like Google navigator don't work,
I hope I have explained this well enough for you guys to understand.
If there is anyone out there that can help me, I would appreciate it!!!
Thanks
Mike
You did not brick your device.
Try this out and tell me it works.
Download EVO version of your preferred Rom. Place on SD card.
Search for amon ra supersonic.
Go to the xda link once you search for it.
Download the PC36IMG.zip version of amon ra.
Place on sdcard, but not in any folders.
Make sure the file name is "PC36IMG.zip", it is case sensitive.
Turn off phone.
Reboot into hboot, by holding the volume DOWN key and power button.
Let the hboot find the PC36IMG image.
When it asks whether you want to update/flash...say yes.
It will unload the recovery image into your phone.
It will ask you if you want to reboot, say no.
Then, go to where it says recovery and click to boot into recovery.
Now you should be using amon ra v2.3.3 supersonic.
Go to wipe and wipe everything, factory reset, data, ext, android secure, everything!
If you feel frisky, wipe again!
Now, proceed to flash from zip.
Choose the Rom you downloaded in step one.
That should do the trick. Also...clockwork mod nandroid backups will not work with amon ra backups, and vice versa. Keep this in mind.

So you think it is the clockwork? I hear that most people like Amon RA better.

Well, when I first purchased my Evo I used clockwork mod for about a day. It caused me issues, personally, which could also be attributed to my lack of knowledge at the time. So I tried amon ra and have always been happy. My issue with cwm was that it did wipe correctly.

I have read that it is possible that you can lose your 4G keys with AMON RA. That makes me nervous...is there anyway to avoid this?
No one can guarantee that you won't lose your WiMax keys with either recovery. I have never used Clockwork on my EVO, but my keys are intact with AMON RA, and it is easy to back them up with AMON RA.
Thank you so much!!!
I have company in town and not a lot of time to play...so it is SAFE to wipe everything?
Is there anything that I shouldn't be wiping?
Android security? What is that? And is it Safe? I am just a bit nervous...but THANK YOU for your help!
Don't wipe your SD card. Yes, wipe android secure.
Android secure is a directory used by Google apps2sd, capable on froyo and above. It is where Google stores your apps once you move them to SD card. You can wipe it.

unfortunately, this did not work. I did everything that you said. I install the amon ra, and deleted everything and wiped everything that you said. I installed the new ram that I thought was a successful install. it booted to the white htc screen, and then turned itself off and right back on it went right back to that same white htc screen. It kept doing this.....other then this being a bad rom can you think of anything else I could be causing this? HELP!

sorry I am not rooted right now. I received a replacement phone because of a broken micro USB and it came with 2.3.3. Do you see an option for wipe system partition? or format system partition?
I also think that the mikg rom runs a script during flash that wipes the system. Kind of aamikiam's way of taking the end user mistakes out of the equation I guess...
Today I tried the new method to obtain S-off and root my 2.3.3 Evo. All went fine but now my phone will only boot into the clockwork recovery tool. How can I fix my phone or get it back to normal?
Have you tried to flash a ROM?
You can try to download and flash a ROM from this site.
Also can you get to your bootloader by pressing volume down and power if so you can find an ruu to put on your sd to put you back to stock.

I tried to flash a cm7 but I got a status error 7 so I am downloading synergy now.
Make sure you wipe everything but sdcard.
Also its possible you got a bad download I also recommend using Amon ra 2.3

I tried installing Synergy but I got the following messages:

You might have a bad dl are you downloading from your phone on 3g.
And you should try this recovery I had nothing but problems with cwm when I first rooted and went to ra and never looked back.

You can also try flashing this before you flash a ROM it will wipe for you and don't worry it won't wipe your sdcard.

First thing first make a nandroid backup then you can download that vr-superwipe I posted but I'm not really 100% if that works in cwm recovery but when you wipe wipe everything but your sdcard well you don't really have to wipe stats but I don't even think that option is in cwm.
You should really think about switching to Amon ra 2.3 if you haven't you can even flash it from ROM Manager.

Sorry for bringing this dumb thread back to the top but I couldn't start a whole new thread for one of my stupid questions. I wanted to know if a nandroid backup backs up everything? Like, could I do a back up then wipe my entire phone of everything, install a new rom, and then go back to my old rom from loading the backup?

Hey guys,
I have scoured the forums and the web for answers, but have found none. I have everything normally displayed on ClockWorkMod EXCEPT the "nandroid" option. Can anyone shed some light on this?! I have been loyally updating ClockWorkMod but each comes with no "nandroid" option!
I am currently running MIUI 1.9.2 with a Savaged-Zen kernel along with vipermod and Supercharger V6. There is a thread similar to this, only it is in the "Vibrant General" forum and it ends abruptly. Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901818
It's not called nandroid. You just go into the recovery and select up backup/restore and then backup.
That's what I've been doing for, like, forever, but was nandroid discontinued or something?
It's still a nandroid backup, it's just not called that in the menu.
Backup - Nandroid
Started out with that backup, but quickly moved to Armon-RA, I have had no issues and all the features work without issue. Most all rom’s that are posted have users that are using the Clockwork, a standard recommendation is to move to Armon-RA. Might be a little pain in the neck to switch, but I don’t think you would want to go back.

It's still a nandroid back up, whether it's clockwork or Amon Ra recovery.
The backups are in a folder called clockworkmod on the sd card.
Thanks for all your answers!
Sorry, avwheeler but I am not switching to Amon Ra.
If your using rom mansger you can backup from there, they don't call it a nandroid but it is. Btw, amon_ra is a much better recovery.in terms of features and stability!

I've never personally had issue with Clockwork but I've heard rumors about it [at least a year ago] having issues clearing dalvik cache.
However, I continue to use Amon RA because I like the look/layout better.

Try backing up contents of sd card onto computer. Then format aka erase sd card using phone and then copy contents from computer back to sd card. I had same problem and that is what worked for me.
