A friend has a nandroid backup of his stock ROM, however, when he did the backup he had already installed cwm. Thus meaning that he doesn't have stock recovery on his phone.
Now my question is, is it fine to use a stock recovery from another stock ROM or will this intervene?
Thank you

The roms do not come with a recovery.
Restore the nandroid with cwm and in the cwm sticky post in development section there are links to the stock recoveries of the different basebands. Grab the one from which version he has
You can check with fastboot getvar mainver
Then flash with fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Hi!!! I have a question... when I restore a backup made in recovery mode the kernel is restored automatically or I have to flash it again after the restore?
Thank you.

You have to flash the boot.img again if you're restoring a different ROM.
I made a nand backup before I flashed custom rom. Now the backup is in .dup format.
Recovery which come with rom doesn't show any backup at all, but clockworkmod v5.8 skips them.
How can I restore it now?

I have nandroid backup of stock rom in CWM.... Would that backup work with TWRP???

No. Restore it in CWM, flash TWRP and back it up again in TWRP.

No it dosen't flash via recovery you must install boot.img custom via fastboot and computer. In the nandroid backup you have boot.img go in fastboot connect to computer and flash the boot.img

Ok, but are the kernel settings remembered in the nandroid back up, or do I also have to flash the corresponding kernel settings zip file.

It's lapoyta onelyx kernel.
Nothing is stuck, but I was just experimenting with kernel. So to go to a previous setup of nandroid, I need exactly the same settings on which I tested the kernel. I don't know which options I chose when I flashed the corresponding zip file.

No you don't need to reflash the kernel. Nandroid backup is what you backup last time with the kernel included inside when you restor it you have your phone with the latest thing you backuped. If you backup ARHD with lyapota kernel when you restore the backup you will have ARHD with lyapota kernel you will not have ARHD with different kernel because you backuped ARHD with lyapota kernel.

But earlier you said that the kernel doesn't flash and I should flash the boot.img from the nandroid if I have changed the kernel

now:
1. When you flash nandroid backup you must install it via recovery and flash the boot.img from nandroid backup
2. When you install ROM you must install via recovery and flash boot.img from rom archive
3. When you flash kernel only you must to install modules via recovery and flash boot.img from kernel archive
What you can't understand? Nandroid backup is like you install rom all the installation on s-on device is the same!!!

Post #9 you said:
"No you don't need to reflash the kernel. Nandroid backup is what you backup last time with the kernel included inside"
I think you're being a bit contradictory, but I'll just go with what you said in your last post.

yes when you flash the nandroid you don't need to flash any kernel it is included in the nandroid backup but if you want to change the kernel after restoring the nandroid you must to flash the boot.img from your new kernel and after this the modules of the new kernel. Kernel is not only the BOOT.IMG and all boot.img is different for each ROM and kernel!!!!
I tried restoring a backup of Stock Debloated ROM and the radio didn't work. I tried restoring a previous backup in case it was just an issue with that backup and it was the same. Is this an issue with TWRP BIGG or did I do something wrong? I did a full wipe before restoring.

yes offcorse, like evry rom you flash you flash the boot.img then the backup is rom and you must to flash the boot.img from the backup:silly:
Fair do's. The ROM booted fine though - all good except for the radio. Would've thought it wouldn't boot if it needed boot.img flashing. Or does a backup restore ok but with issues if the boot image isn't flashed?
In my case I'd tried Unboxed ROM & so had flashed boot.img for that ROM. Could it be that that was still in place & is why it was able to boot but with issues? Does a full wipe leave that in place?
Also, can boot.emmc.win from a TWRP backup be flashed via fastboot as it is or does it need to be renamed to boot.img?

yes you must to flash boot.emmc.win via fastboot.
No not in any case. Somtime you can flash the rom without boot.img and the rom will boot but with issue somtime just stuck on boot logo and stay there forever
