[Q] randroid backup?

alright so I am new to this and I am trying to backup my stock rom so I can try installing a custom rom like Virtuous Sense/DZ rom. I have rom manager the free version installed and my phone is rooted with S off. I install the rom using rom manager with the back up option checked. So it restarts my phone and the little phone with the red ! or whatever pops up so i hit the volume up and it says error cant find the recover/command or whatever it is. Can somone help me to what im doing wrong? thanks.

Your thread makes me think of Scooby Doo lol
Have you tried re-flashing CWM? I believe this is a common problem. Do that and then reboot into recovery, once in the CWM screen arrow down to "backup and restore"
In the Nandroid screen (randroid lol) select backup and let CWM do it's thing.

Yep tried that and it worked thanks!

[Q] boot screen not appearing

i have a rooted desire with Leedroid v2.2f custom rom and the boot screen is not coming at all.
this happened when i flashed a libs file on the phone
is there a way i can get my boot screen to come again ?

Use the nandroid you made before flashing the lib or reflash leedroid

i dont want to reflash the whole leedroid rom
is there a way to reflash the boot screen only ?

Are you only missing the boot screen/animation but your phone boots? if yes, than you can just put a new one in /system/customize/resources.
If your phone does not boot and you know which libs you flashed you can copy them back in recovery. If you don't know, reflash leedroid without data wipe and only wipe both caches.

[Q] I cannot seem to restore my nandroid back up

I have a Telus DHD and I just temprooted the phone and installed clockworkmod 3.0.0.5. I did a nandroid backup and when I go to restore the it after trying out several roms, it won't boot past the HTC screen. I tried starting over and installing the stock Telus rom and nandroid backup again and restore and still the same thing. Does anyone have this problem?

I'm not 100% sure but I think the problem is the CWM version. Did you make the backup with CWM 3.0.0.5?

You need permanent root and s off (I recommend eng s off).
Follow the guides in the development section.
Also try a non 3 series clockworkmod recovery if you're using a 2.2 rom.

how would i change the rom manager if i cannt boot the phone passed the htc screen please help

Ok. Don't worry, this can be repaired.
First you need to see if you can reboot into recovery.
Take the battery out and restart the phone by holding volume down and power. This will take you to the bootloader. Then using the volume buttons scroll down to recovery and select using the power button.
Next you should get a screen with the red triangle on it. When you see this, hold volume up and press power. Then select wipe data factory resest. This will wipe all your data but ce la vie dude.
If this doesn't work you need to flash a pd98img.zip file from the bootloader. Get back to me and I'll help if needed. Good luck.

Don't restore. It won't work without soff and perm root. Factory reset the reboot. Does your phone reboot without trying to restore?

in hboot it says eng s-off

Can you reboot without restore? Do you have sdk on your pc?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

i dont have sdk and when i reboot it stays on the htc white screen and goes no further i have to remove battery and hold down and power to get to hboot and recovery from there takes me to cwm 3.0.0.5

Ok. So we need to flash on older clockwork. Email me and I'll reply with the files you need then I'll talk you through flashing the recovery from fastboot. You have the wrong version of clockwork. The one you have is for 2.3 based roms.

ROM manager stuck?

I'm flashing a new ROM on my wife's Dinc, and I go into recovery mode through ROM manager and when I try to do anything, I only get the ROM manager logo in the center of the screen. I can back up to the main menu, but in order to reboot the phone I have to pull the battery. I would just flash the ROM through ROM manager, but I need to flash the ROM, and the gapps also. I don't think it will let me do both, plus I like to wipe everything myself before I flash. Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks in advance.

help needed!!! restoring desire z

i rooted desire z after downgrading it to 2.2 using xda wiki method....after it installed cynogenmod 9 unofficial...
all went ok
now pressing power button gave three options one of which is recovery i accidently selected that and the phone went back to 2.2 and superuser etc apps also removed...its restarting too...
i want to restore it to android 2.3 htc original non rooted...how can i do so...????please help on this...

A couple things here, how do you know you are unrooted and running 2.2 if you're stuck in a boot loop? Can you boot into hboot? If so can yo write down everything on that screen? Can you boot into recovery at all? What if you remove your sdcard? Like someone said in the other post you had did you leave a pc10img.zip on sdcard?

By choosing recovery from advanced menu option shoundt cause an issue, and definetly won't bring you back to stock froyo, something else happened, can you remember? Can you get into the os at all?

i hadnt selected anything from advanced menu...i selected recovery from one of three options that come pressing power button when phone is on...and yes i can get into os...but restarts aftr a while....

That's what I meant, selecting recovery from within the power menu options will not cause an issue and will not cause your phone to unroot itself and jump back a few OSs.
So some other key info is missing, if you don't recall or don't know what it is that's fine. Can you boot into your bootloader and write down everything on that screen here. Also try to turn on debugging and use adb to reboot into recovery, tell me what happens
