how to restore a nandroid back up rar file - HTC One X

hello. i need to get back to stock im on cid htc 001
h,boot 1.39.0000
radio-5.1204.162A.29
3.20.401.1
what i think iv found out is that there is no ruu out for this, iv found a nandroid bk up but it is a rar file. this is what im stuck on how to restore with it

Open the rar with winrar/winzip/7zip and extract all the files to your pc... and now transfer all the files to your phone in this directory /clockworkmod/backup/02-06-2013/ and put the boot.img file in the fastboot folder.
Go to fastboot mode and then flash the boot.img and then erase cache... Go to recovery and then wipe everything! and finally restore backup and then reboot!
PS: I'm assuming you have a backup made with CWM recovery!

hi there i used CWM Munjeni v5.5.0.4 i did was Used back up and restore option> in there i used backup option and the backup process begun > after backup in CWM folder i got an folder named backup> in that backup folder there was another folder named ""2014-04-11.17.41.43"" i guess its data and time used as name of the folder and in that folder this actual 4 backup files were there which are two rar files named "data.ext4.rar" and "system.ext4.rar" also other two files are ""boot.img" and ""recovery.img" .

[Q] How to extract files from a Nandroid Backup

Hi,
I just installed a custom ROM on my phone and it's working very well.
The question is that I made a nandroid backup and want to copy some files from the backup. So how can I open the system.img and data.img files on my windows machine in order to copy the desired files?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] How to backup the backup files while in recovery?

When using ClockworkMod Recovery to back up my phone the backup files go to /sdcard which is also wiped when flashing userdata.img via fastboot.
It would be nice if I could save these backup files to my mac (either via MTP or USB mass storage) WITHOUT booting my phone into system. When I boot to system my backup becomes outdated.
Is there a recovery image that allows copying files while preserving the file structure in? (abd pull seems to copy everything but it puts all files into one directory)
Can I do this with CWM?

[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.

[Q] Backup Changed to .zip File??

I was doing some changes to my phone so i did a backup and then copied the backup directory from the phone to my PC to save it. The backup was under /clockworkmod/backup/Jan312013.
I copied that directory (Jan312013) to my PC not even realizing when it copied it, for some reason it changed it to a zip file??? Now i have Jan312013.zip and have no idea how to copy that back to phone to restore?? If i open the zip it has all the files that would normally be in the backup directory but of course recovery does not recognize a zip file for backup.
Thoughts? Help? Thanks.
What version of CWM, if that's what youre using? I just used 6.0.2.3, and i believe there's an option to backup as .zip. Maybe you accidentallychose that method?

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:
