My question is that how to restore nandroid backup on different OS just as restoring stock rom backup to cm7 rom,also just need to restore its "data" only.how to do?
I don't think you can restore another rom's data.
Isn't that why you have to wipe data and cache before flashing, to avoid failures?

I am currently on tbalden's latest CM9 build and want to go back to ARHD 9.1.0, I have a nandroid backup of 9.1.0 and should I just restore from that backup or reinstall the rom. Does restoring from a Android backup also change the kernel?

No not the boot.img
no the backup will restore all data except the boot.img which you need to get off your sdcard/clockworkmod/backups/XXXXXXXXX/folder
restore your rom then flash the boot.img
i have a question too.
i have a nandroid backup of my stock rom.
how to restore this?
When restoring a backup from ics to jb or from jb to ics through cwm recovery, should I wipe cache/dalvik or factory in between, or does the back up overwrite things in a manner maikng it unnecessary?

I think you should always wipe cache and dalvik. It will not hurt anything and can only prevent problems.
When you are switching from JB to ICS you may also need to wipe data (unless you are restoring data that was backed up with ICS).
The backup will only wipe/restore what was included in the backup.
Thank you, good to know!

Normally you can update and just wipe cache and dalvik cache, but a nandroid wont hurt

What's Nandroid?
In cwm there is an option: nandroid backup. It's a complete backup of your current rom together with your apps and data. In that way if something does go wrong you always have a backup

If you want to make a nandroid backup, make sure you have 500+mb free on your SD.

If you are rooted with a custom recovery just make a nandroid before you install your new rom then you can restore your phone exactly as it was. To restore your data/apps back them up first with titanium backup then you can restore them after you install your new rom

Two best apps for restoring data are Titanium backup and Helium Backup.
1. Titanium backup: required root. Does all kind of backups.
2. Helium backup: required nonrooted and rooted phones. As it works with nonrooted phones, you can even backup after unrooting phone.

As above said , and just incase you lost arabic language and your device is rooted
use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wanam
will get any language you want
I'm about to flash a new ROM and I already have an adequate backup for the one I'm on so I don't wanna lose space by making a new backup, is there anyway I could just backup the data and then restore that after restoring the ROM? Or should I just make an new backup and delete the old one?
