Quick question

If I flash a aosp rom or non touchwiz will anything get screwed up if I restore a backup or go back to a touchwiz rom?

You are ok with backup

The only issue after backup is that everything will end up in a folder named 0 inside SD cards. All sorts of critical stuff inside like S Notes, etc..
If you go back to 4.1 after CM10.1, then flash the restore-sdcard-after-downgrade.zip to get everything back in place. The file can be found in the OP below.

default backup folder is placed in /data/media/TWRP/backups/....
After doing backup your default backups localisation is usually moved to /data/media/0/TWRP/backups.. (the new file .twrps in TWRP folder is created. Backups localisation depends on where .twrp is placed.)

OK so I can find it in root browser but how do I get it visible in twrp restore?

You need to change the backup location in the TiBu settings so it can see the old ones.

Since 4.3 I haven't been able to use Titanium, mainly because I've been too lazy to look up how lol.

after update to 4.3 can't register to network. IMEI isn't corrupt

Hey guys.
My international N7100 after flashing stock rom (4.3) with odin can't register to network. IMEI isn't corrupted - still shows correct one after pushing *#06#
Please help.

Did you ever backup your efs? If not, look for a folder named 'efs' through any root explorer. Not the one you are already having under /efs.
It could be under somewhere of the sdcard. Sometimes during flashing an auto efs backed up. If you found that folder, delete entire contents of the root efs folder and paste contents of the other efs. Have a look now.

I have backup of entire rom and efs.img

Then fine, is your device rooted? If yes then through cwm restore your efs.

Of your device is rooted, you don’t need to root again.

SuperSU says that I have to make manual re-root, should I just ignore it?

Did you root before? Which cwm you are using? If your device was rooted before you flash4.3 then prob is with the efs. Install philz recovery 5.15 then from custom restore, restore the efs from your backup.
That's all.
