Ok I have 5 nandroid backups named by date..Is there a way I can tell which rom they are without actually flashing each? I have vael, ava, myn, and stock and I can't tell which is which.
As for your question I don't have an answer.
But, after a nandroid, I've always gone in and renamed it so I could tell what it is, using a file explorer.
I agree
I said the hell with it reflashed/renamed the latest two and will rename after a backup in the future.
Use rom manager. You can restore, rename or delete your nandroid backups.
That is if your using clockwork.

I was just wondering if anyone can help me with an issue I'm having.
When I go into rom manager and try to back up current rom, it goes through the process but then it says it failed and to reboot phone and open rom manager to report error.
Am I doing somthing wrong?
I've done it once before but when I change to the new rom I have, it won't let me back it up.
Thanks for any help in this matter

Didn't think you could use rom manager for backups but if you need to backup just boot into recovery via 3 finger salute and go to backup and restore and backup that way. That way you have a for sure nandroid backup. Just don't rename the file it creates.

Hey guys i made a nand backup and now i want to restore it and all it says is MD5 mismatch.. Im using N7100 with CWM.. help thanks
This is a security feature.
If it wasn't there you could have got an error or even though it restored normally you would have a soft bricked phone.
Md5 mismatch means that the backup is corrupted. I don't think it can be helped in any way.

This is common issue, particularly if you have moved /rename folder
Sometime it happens without any reason
I exactly don't remember but there is adb command to disable MD5 check
Try searching it otherwise will post tomorrow i wrote somewhere on my office pc.
Just to note if your backup is corrupted it may restore corrupt data,

With a root explorer, go to the backup folder of clockworkmod. Then in your backup folder you have to delete file named nandroid.md5 which already contains entries and create a new empty one with the same name. Then you can restore your backup without md5sum checking.
hey everyone i would like to know why there is no md5 checksum on my backup of stock rom.?
i used cmw 5.2.0.7 ext+rfs
is there any way to generate md5 for it?
PLEASE HELP, I CUSTOMIZED MY STOCK ROM TO PERFECTION BUT THE LAST THING WAS MMB TWEAKS WHICH CORRUPTED MY WIFI SO I WAS FORCED TO SWITCH.
there is, but problably a md5 error after moving files.

nope.
never renamed moved or tampered with anything in the clockworkmod folder
Use TWRP - at least for backups! Use the 'Stable 2' found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2083861
Plus, I find it more appealing or attractive than CWM.
This is my first post. First, I want to say sorry if my English is bad.
I switched my recovery from CWM 5.0.2.8 to TWRP 2.3.3.0 via Nandroid Manager 1.0. I made backups using TWRP successfully. After reboot I would try to see the result in Nandroid Manager. I can read backup contents without problem. But the confusion started when I click restore apps+data in that app. It says no apps found in the backup. I tried to open an app in the backup explorer, but it says parsing error when I opened it. I also tried to extract backup to my sdcard but I can't find it on my sdcard. However, there is no problems when restoring app+data using Titanium Backup.
I've become very afraid if I keep using that, so without think about it again, I reverted my recovery back to CWM 5.0.2.8 again.
is the backup really corrupted or is it caused by a ?bug? in nandroid manager ?

Hi firstly welcome to xda
Now nandroid manager should have a debug log in the settings. Can you check/post the log?
also how many back ups did you test on? It was maybe a corrupt back up. Try making two to compare too.
On a side note as long as you have the bootloader and a known working backup you are fairly safe to experement

Thank you for the reply.
The debug log is currently disabled by the developer (even in version 1.0.2). I think there are no problems with my backups. The backup can be explored in PC with no problem as a TAR archive (TAR.GZ if compressed). I think it is really a bug in Nandroid Manager because Titanium Backup does extract them with no problem. I'll wait until the developer fix this.
