You can store the nandroid folder (copy paste) on your computer, then if you need to use a different sdcard just copy it back on the new card and restore backup....I keep one on my computer once a month just in case my sdcard breaks!
Would be nice, but would prefer a titanium backup version so that I wouldn't have to revert back to the old ROM.
Basically making it easier to switch between ROM's and restoring all settings and apps.

You can do that and just copy that backup folder from titanium on his computer, same principle...

Hello!
How can i make a complete backup of my roms, including ext and radio without having an SD card?
I mean i do have an SD card but it's 16mb one... ;-(
Anyone can help?
Sprite backup can back-up to your hard drive.
I think the demo shareware version allows you to do it. (However Sprite backup is a good investement and i would recommend you invest in it.)
hmmm? I do not think that Sprite backup allows to backup the ROMs, I think it's designed to backup and restore the personal data only.

You're absolutely right, sorry, I didn't read the question properly.
When I enable/disable lagfixes, it automatically does a nandroid backup. Do I have to delete old backups, or is it done automatically? If I have to do it, where are they stored?
Sent from a place my wife doesn't know about (yet)
They are stored in the clockwork folder on the root of your internal sd. I think.

You don't have to. They become somewhat redundant after a while and begin taking up space if you create them often. Only the most recent one is really relevant, as long as your rom is working correctly. In one sense, they're kind of like restore points in windows.
I had SpeedMod kernel installed for a while, and if I remember correctly, they go into the sdcard/clockworkmod/backup directory, same as regular nandroid backups.

Attention!!!
If you use Titanium Backup dont do a mass restore (all file at once) while it dont will put it onto SD card! the apps and the phone memory will be full and some error etc.
restor oance a time the apps. and move it manualy to SD card.

No its no necessary..it'l b a lengthy process so do some apps at once like 20.. no error ever occured to me..
in titanium backup setting there is a option which let you choose if you want to install apps in sdcard, phone memory or android way
choose android way then TB will install some apps in phone memory and some apps in sdcard so need to restore app individually
also TB is better than nandroid backup and never ever restore system data with TB
use titanium backup (i recommend pro version)to backup all user apps...then u flash new rom.....then u run restore missing apps with data...not anything else...
I tried yesterday to restore 30 apps from batch and fail.
Apps was backuped form stock rom.
TB dosent remember to restore the apps here it was? exemple cut the rope is sd up but puts it on phone?
I'am refering that what should be on sd to restor to sd what no no.
I use Titanium Backup Pro. Restore and run batch until notify Batch verification finished 0 error found. But not found restore files anywhere. Does I missing some step?
I always restore around 80apps at once and never had any problem..

Yes its possible.
Simply install titanium backup or Mybackup application from the market. The pro versions are better at a small fee
Then from the current ROM back up all the apps you want. this back up is stored in the SD card and so wount be affected by Flashing a custom ROM.
Now flash the desired ROM and again install either of the applications you used to backup the apps from the market. i.e if you used titanium backup to back up your apps, then install titanium back up from the market.
then select restore option to restore your applications!
Hope this helps.
yeah, try Titanium Backup.
Tqvm for suggestion. Then, what is different compare to CWM backup? Which better?

I tried restoring when I went from Blazer ROM to CM10 but it just gave me errors and force closes. Is there a specific way in TB to restore in a different ROM or do you basically have to start off with a clean slate?
what is the difference between cw backup and titanium backup?
which is better, more safe (for brick issue) , faster ...
what is meant by nandroid backup?
Difference between Nandroid and Titanium backup
I am glad I found this, I have been looking for a thread I could submit a useful post in so that I would be able to see the thank button.
Nandroid backup is the type of backup that CWM does.
i.e. when your phone is rooted you can go into the recovery and one of the options is nandroid backup.
A nandroid backup copies every single byte of data stored in the phone onto your SD card (or wherever) and is an absolute backup of one particular state of your phone.
It is a very powerful tool, you do a nandroid backup before flashing anything and if it all goes wrong the nandroid backup will restore everything back to the way it was before you messed it all up.
(with the Note you need to be careful because the nandroid backup does a wipe and write on restore and that will trigger the hard brick issues with the leaked ICS ROMs that you will no doubt have read about in the stickies.
Titanium backup is a tool that is run from inside the OS and can back up the installation files and app data of all your apps, it will allow you to remove and replace individual apps or batch replace the whole lot.
It can also force the OS not to update certain apps if you want them to run at an older version.
It can sync its backup files to Dropbox or Google drive too.
I guess in a nutshell the differences are these:
Nandroid will only back up a snapshot of the whole phone but does not need a working OS to do it.
Titanium will only work if you can get the phone to boot into android but it can do more specific backups and roll backs.
Let me know if that has answered your question buddy.

Thats incorrect as per my post regarding backup cwm does not take a snapshot of whole phone. One more thing you need to backup seperately is efs. See my thread on that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606012

Hello,
I have an issue with the screen that is detaching more and more. So I plan to send it back to Sony SAV.
My phone is rooted and I really want to keep the firmware I am using right now (I do not want to move to Android 5).
I know how to copy my data, applications and so one. But I want a full backup to perform a full restore once it will be exchanged. Is there any way to do a full back-up with the firmware also?
Thanks,
Javier
Via twrp cwm and so on its easy to do that. (nandroid) But dont restore the ta partition if u get an new z3c.
Thanks, I will check that!

What do you use to back up your device now? I mean, when you rooted it, custom recoveries such as TWRP or CWM needed to be used to even flash the rooted firmware. Just use the same recovery you always use to create a full back-up and save the back-up to an SD card so you can restore from it on the new phone.
The backup I was referring to was only at application level, by means of an application backup such as MyBackup Pro.
If I correctly understand, I need to
On the old phone
Perform a backup using CWM
Copy the internal SD contents on a PC or an external SD card
On the new phone
root the new phone (that will come I guess with Android 5). No issue due to new Android version
Copy the old internal SD contents the internal SD card of the new phone
Restore the CWM backup of the old phone
With this procedure, the new phone will be at the exact same status as the old one.
Right or is there something missing?
