updated to 2.2 rooted and s-off. when restoring my titanium backups i reinstalled some system app data. didn't really cause any problems, but wouldn't let me set up my mail accounts. made a nandroid backup right after upgrade to 2.2 and tried to restore with clockworkmod (no rom manager??). still new to some of this think i f'd up!!! after tring to do a restore phone doesn't boot and freezes on htc incredible screen. please help!!! leaving for vacation and need my phone!!
ok, let me be more specific. can i reapply the downgrade image and start from scratch? install a good rom image? i'm assuming it didn't work because i didn't use rom manager and the backup wasn't actually an image. please give assistance!! thanks
Resolved!
I'm still fairly new to ROM's/rooting etc. A few weeks ago I rooted my Incredible. It was working fine, and I found a ROM for gingerbread. I would really like to go back to when my phone was rooted, or back to unrooted so I can start over again. I would greatly appreciate ANY help at all. Pardon my idiocracy
So you flashed a ROM? Did you perform a Nandroid backup first? If so, simply go into recovery and wipe. and hit backup and restore, restore, and choose the correct backup. If not, follow this thread.
So here is the story:
I have a Galaxy S3 with Rogers (AT&T). I decided to root my phone which I did successfully using OSX terminal and installed goo manager as the rom manager and recovery. I installed SU and Titanium backup to get ready to flash. Backed up all my system + app data and searched for a rom. The first rom I flashed was 747 greystone. Once I flashed the rom, I restored the backup from Titanium and I believe I selected to restore all, system backup included. I later on learned that I ****ed up by doing so. Anyways, since I flashed that rom my GPS hasnt worked at all. I restored my nandroid backup, which I did before flashing greystone and nothing. I flashed team sonic's resurrection and nothing. Now I flashed Rogers (my provider) stock rom and still I can't get my stupid GPS to go on. On top of that today 4.1.1 finally came out for my phone and after the update the GPS wont work still. What else can I do? Please help me!!!!

[SOLVED]
Hello guys, hope that someone could help me.
I had a 4.4.2 rom (note4neo 2.0) and i wanted to try 5.1.1 so first of all i mad a full Nandroid Backup through TWRP and also a titanium bkp. Later on i installed lollipop original rom through ODIN and everything was ok. I then followed a guide from Noble Rom for rooting and installing TWRP. Everything went ok, but i had problems with some rooting app (like titanium) and so i decided to revert back to 4.4.2.
At first I rebooted into recovery, made a full wipe (even system) then restored previously backup. Seemed to be ok, but then when rebooted it stucks on boot logo (i left booting for 28 minutes, so....).
Then i tried to wipe cache, dalvik and data and reboot again: no changes.
I then decided to reflash previously twrp (the one that i used for bkp). Flashes went ok, but i have "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" message on the top (even with the lollipop twrp: maybe is this the key of my problem?!?).
Restoring backup from older twrp didn't work as well...
Of course i can enter both Download and Recovery mode.
Now i flashed back the original 5.1.1 through ODIN in order to go back to original lollipop and see what u guys can tell me to do to restore backup i made..
Thank you very much for your help
I was thinking that maybe i should flash a stock 4.4.2 before restore the backup...
Now i'm downloading it and see what happens...tell me if i may be right
Yes you should first restore a 4.4.2 firmware before flashing TWRP and then you'll be able to restore your backup

Update: Flashed 4.4.2, all ok. Then rooted, twrp and all ok again
After i restored Backup and stuck on boot.
Then i made again all the steps: STOCK, ROOT, TWRP, then Base version of the Rom and all ok.
At this point i was thinking it was done and restoring would have been just fine...unfortunatley it doesn't. Stuck on boot again.
So i reflashed the Base version of the mod rom and: it started with my restored app Btw i'm encountering problems like no home button, no volume icon, no settings shortcut. Now i made a cache and dalvik wipe but problems still remain..
Any idea?
After some attempts to solve those problems i stucked again on boot..
So now my plan is to: Flash STOCK rom, Root, Twrp, Base mod rom (everything always ok so far) and then restore JUST DATA from backup... Not touching system and boot should let the rom works just fine...at least i hope so :'D
Ok, as i was expecting the problem is solved. I did not restored System and Boot and all apps works just fine. Even though i miss some settings i made now i'm happy to be 90% back to origin ^^
