Highly recommended Dont do this ,
It will Restore your previous phone EFS and you will lose the IMIE of your new device and will be in deep trouble.

OMG, I was right to post this question with a small doubt.. Thanks so much..

Glad you posted the question here :good:

you're better off using titanium backup, and only restore user apps/data.
this way you only copy over the things that are safe to copy over.

For switch over device, titanium is best
Make full backup on old device
Restore 'missing application with dada' batch scenario in new device.

I know that, but I thought it's safe because I backed up stock rom. Losing imei will be very terrible. It's ok now after all ... Thanks for all advices. ^_^

NANDROID error

Okay, I used the toolkit to NANDROID backup, 3x 5 minutes apart to be safe. Now that I want to go back after flashing a rom that is force closing eafh restore is throwing an error from the beginning using CWM. Im wanting the stock kernel and rom.
I am aware this was probably user error, nevertheless I need a few pointers.
Thanks in advance,
CJ
First pointer post in the right section and answer use Odin to restore back to factory and possibly restart...

Delete my backups and try again? How will that work with NO Nandroid backups to restore from? This is like going into the tmo store for technical assistance.

Yes, I use Twrp with N8013. But if I'm plan to flashing all time I use CWM which is very easy to use and if I want for warranty all I do restore to stock. Toolkit , Twrp ,CWM are same depend on your experience and your taste.

That happened because you didn't upgrade your recovery before wiping & stuff.

Just in case: my internal memory SDcard data recovery post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34185439
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Lemme explain what happened. I
backed up my ROM in ROM manager.
So I installed newest cwr touch, placed the files on the SD card like always, I booted into recovery, factory reset data/cache...etc. I went to " install from zip" it's empty. I went to back ups, nothing. Do I was stuck in recovery. Put phone into bootloader (Im drawing a blank on what it's called), installed newest TWRP, booted into recovery. It found the zip, installed it and all was good. But now I wanna go back to my previous ROM to do titanium backup. I bought a jetpack joyride perk and when I installed it on the new ROM its saying I have to buy it. Do I was gonna restore data on it. Problem is, cwr won't recognize my backups.
Thanks in advance.

I don't want to sound like a jerk when I say this... But if something is at least somewhat important to you, it would probably be a good idea to back it up on your computer or whatever. It'd better safe than sorry, plus it's really easy to backup the entire SD with:
$adb pull /sdcard /backup-folder-on-computer
^ Linux command, windows will have a different path

I avoid cmd and Linux command if possible. And it's not gone, it's just placed somewhere else. A Nandroid is all I need usually.

[q] nandroid backup question!

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

Does CWM backup, backs up efs?

Im currently using Philz recovery and while doing a periodic backup, i think i saw efs while data was being backed up. So does the nandroid backup , backs up the device's efs?
I know for sure twrp does. So i puppose cwm should too.
Hope it helps.

Thanx for the reply.
One more question I had . Is it possible to restore someone else CWM backup?
Yes it is. But if it really backs up efs. That is totally not recommended.
You can restore
System, data, cache, boot, and recovery.
Those are safe.
But if you want his apps for example then just data is enough.

Before restoring a backup,CWM checks for md5 hash. What is that?
It is fir the integrity of the backup.
In case it is corrupted.

So there will be no conflict with md5 hash if I restore someone else backup?
And a silly question, how would the integrity of the backup deteriorate? :?
It can break during transfer an other instances. That is why it checks it.
