[Q] Problem with nand bakcup

Hello
My problem is that I downloaded the nand stock rom from the thread and extracted it and tried to put it in the clockworkmod\backups folder and I think it was ok (not sure) but by mistake I deleted all of backups (the stock and the one i created) and I tried to copy it again and create another one but I noticed that there never 2 backups.
The one that I created I can see only from the restore option in recovery and not in the folder ( I used to see it in the folder ..) and the stock one I can see in the folders but not in the restore option.
Should it be like this ? Am I doing something wrong ?
How can I restore that stock backup if I cant see it ?
I'm on ordroid 9 with TWRP recovery.
And the stock one gets in ZIP but i extracted it and copied as folder.
Thanks in advance , I'm afraid to flash new version.
That's because you didn't put it into clockworkmod>backup folder in the sd card and btw you don't extract anything .....every nandroid backup must have 5 zip files in it (don't extract it) and should be named as the date and time it was created
The folder should be like this
Clockworkmod\backup\date & time folder\backup files

I know :\
I extracted the stock backup folder from the zip . not the content in backup.
Forgot the part about renaming, that actually might be the case.
Thanks both of you, I'll try it.

cant restore my backup

hi all,
i want to ask for a help.
can u please explain to me, how do i go back to my backup.
i on stock rom before, then i rooted my phone and i flash custom rom.
and suddenly, it doesn't work.
but somehow i manage to install this rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013506
but, i cant read my sdcard.
and when i try to read my sdcard on recovery, it create folder 0 on my sdcard.
then , i copy out my backup to pc.
i flash my backup boot.img and flash it.
and try to restore my backup.
but my cwm recovery keep saying no directory found , and no files found.
not when i see back my , sd card on my pc, there is no 0 folder.
but in my recovery, it still read my 0 folder.
please help
Like i said, you mount the sdcard as a usb mass storage device in the recovery. There you see the directory \O
Copy all from there back to the root of the sdcard !
And like i said .... Send me a login and password by PM and i can check.
Download the program called teamviewer 8 free and install it on the pc. Open it and send me the codes tonight !
the problem solve!
based on mr hofs,
i mount sdcard in recovery.
copy back all my files in .0 directory and paste it in my root sdcard.
delete the .0 directory, flash my boot.img backup files.
and restore, it read my backup and successfully restore.
thanks a lot:laugh:

How does your File explorer not work? Like in what way.

Thats a huge collection of NAND backups. Find what that relates to your device and flash it as normal.
Go into the recovery and mount the sdcard as a usb diskdrive and move all stuff from :
Sdcard\0\ to sdcard\
If your nandroids are in 0 they will move along to sdcard\
Then you are also able to restore them.

Restore some WhatApp media files from Nandroid Backup

Greetings Folks!!! :highfive:
I have taken a CWM backup of my phone when it was on 4.2.2 version ROM, before installing a new 4.4.4 ROM. Now, I want to extract a particular picture (probably a .JPG or a .PNG file) from the WhatsApp media folder (located on my internal sdcard) from that CWM backup. I don't really want to restore the whole backup or even the WhatsApp App+Data to get that file. I have installed Nandroid Manager, which can browse the backups, but I don't know where to navigate to extract that picture file. Can someone advise on this, please? Thanks.

GO to sdcard/whatsapp/media/whatsapp images enjoy dnt forget to click on thankx button.
Thanks for the response @Preshak . But I think you misunderstood my query. I know the location of the WhatsApp media folder. The issue is that I took a CWM backup of my phone (it was on version 4.2.2) and then formatted it and installed version 4.4.4. In this process the internal SDcard got wiped, including all the WhatsApp media files. But I believe those should be in the CWM backup. Hence wanted to know where in the back folders would I find the WhatsApp media files.
Sorry to say bro but u cant.
As cwm or twrp dnt backup your sd card data. Excluding android folder..
Press thanks Button

I've had this problem when copy files in TWRP and then I can't delete them in Android even from terminal... Back to TWRP file manager and deleted them...
Probably not the same problem as yours but I thought I will mention it...
Didn't realy bothered to figure it out but must be permissions/ownership related...

i reinstall Stock, everything works fine and i think there's some folders (or files / hidden files) in the internal memory (made by Stock when boot up) , they assume the permission to read and write every file :-?
before that, I had to clean up the internal memory in which important files erased
solved....
now i can delete/copy all folders and files i want :laugh:
