Do I need to full wipe before going to a 4.2.1 stock nandroid backup?

Most likely you do.....
Would suggest doing a nandroid
Then upgrade if you are buggy then do a full wipe ...can always restore data later

hi all I've got the leedroid ROM on my phone is it possible to flash any ROM just to try them all?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yes, although most roms will ask you to wipe data before flashing them) so create a titanium backup of all apps (user apps not system!) And a nandroid backup just in case

Hey,
On my previous phone (Gio) a Nandroid backup could be restored becuz cwm could access .rfs filesystem, is it possible on Gmex to restore a Nandroid backup from a stock ROM?

Any stock kernel?

I'd just make a cwm backup of your stock rom. Then go back and fourth. Its what I do without any issues at all. I just have to clear my play store data as I have market problems after but that's it.

Yes I have a back up so I don't need to flash a stock kernel or will the back up will do the job

When you restore from the nandroid backup you'll get the kernel you had before. So you'll have the stock kernel again when you restore

I have used odexme.apk to reodex my rom, but I found something I am wanting to do on my rom but I need to be deodexed. How can I do this?

Not sure if it will work but just try to restore to the backup you made before you used the odex me app.

Either that or reflash the rom without wiping data, just wipe cache and dalvik

okay, so If i make a nandroid backup I know what things it saves.
I just wanted to make sure, when it restores applications, does it restore the downloaded ones from the android store? like temple run and such?
ALSO when i perform a restore, Does it automatically flash the old rom with data or must I first flash the rom of the backup and then preform the restore?
THANKS
It restores your phone to the exact same way it was when you made the backup. All you have to do is reboot after restoring and it will be exactly the same as before the backup.

Since when does CWM not restore kernel? Lol. If it didn't restore the kernel, going from TW to AOSP (or vice versa) wouldn't boot
