Good morning!!!
Recently I have made a backup of my current Kuyadroid ROM with xrecovery. Everything went smooth. Now when I try to restore my backup it says MD5 mismatch...
Any clues?
Thanks in advance...
Im not sure but i think that since kuyadroid installs throw cwm, so you should do your backup throw cwm too....

Actually Kuyadroid is flashed through xRecovery. Worked for me.

I guess it is the most logical explanation. Or maybe my sdcard is messing.
Maybe, try delete this file.from sdcard and put it again it worked for me when i were have the same problem

I will try that. Thanks for the advice.
acctually it dont matter what recovery you use x or cwm they will restore backups properly. listen mount your phone to pc go to sdcard save all other roms to your desktop but leave the backup of the named rom. then go back into recovery and restore and it will work 100% its because you have to many backups on your sdcard at this time
Mayb dont space your filename...
MD5 mismatch is wrong filename try to rename last backup and dont space ok
Ok. I will try to rename file in the evening and try again to restore.
I will inform if i succeeded...

are some people stupid :S DO NOT rename the file you will corrupt it and will make it not flashable. you get MD5 missmatch when you have to many backups on your sdcard NOT wrong file name if that was the case it would state wrong file. please do NOT comment and tell him to do something which will destroy his backup only post if you can contribute and help not **** it up even more!!

I removed all other ROMs and backups from my SDcard. Then I tried to restore once again and again I got Md5 mismatch. To tell you the truth I only once managed to restore my system and it was Stock Eclair. If I remeber correctly I was on Kuyadroid ROM at that time when I rebooted to xRecovery and restored. The backup was made while on Kuyadroid as well.
I would really like to make it work somehow, because what is the point in making backups if i cannot restore them.

Ok. I deleted all the backups in the xRecovery and backup folder. Then I made a new backup of my current GDX v017 ROM and it is actually restoring now. I don't know whether it is going to restore my system later on. But at least I made some progress.
Restore complete.
I will try to restore my ROM in two days and notify whether I succeeded or not.
Thanks for all the help.
Ok. Restoring works now. I still managed to brick my phone with flashing Gingerxperia V8. Now I repaired it with PCC and restored my GDX version.
Thanks again for all the help!

Hey, I got a problem with restoring a backup on my SGS+. I' m using CWM 6.0.1.2 and in the middle of the restoring process, when it says it' s restoring mobi.cyann.natools-1.apk ( i recored a video so i can see what it is because it dissapears very fast ), phone just turns down. Hopefully i can boot, as it restored the boot image, but half of things is not working. I know i can flash rom again, but i really need files from that backup. What can i do?
EDIT: I tried with older backup i found on my pc and it' s the same, phone turns down. Is it a recovery problem?
And sorry i posted it in i9000 section, but i9001 has only a single post in Q&A and it' s a bit messy.

you need same recovery as your backup for it to work, workaround is to use a Nandroid browser ( free app from play store) to copy what you need to new ROM

Yup i know about it =) Sorry, i didn' t mention this "old" backup is also in CWM6. It just doesn't have data i need.
Accidentally wiped the whole data in TWRP but managed to flash viperone via usb otg.
is there any chance to recover the data????
no 1 here?????

Not unless you backed up your data or did a nandroid back up. If you didn't, all your data is lost.

Your data shouldn't get wiped. No harm in making a backup though, just in case anything goes wrong. You'll just have to reflash twrp once you're done. Just out of curiosity, what's the software number of the update you got?

just a quick word of caution, last time I flashed back a stock recovery (and accessed it, but didnt do anything in it), I was unpleasantly surprised that it wiped my entire internal storage

All the info needed to update is here http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/10/ota/
First flash the guru reset mentioned, then the OTA•
You could use titanium backup for all your apps and manually copy all the stuff from the internal sdcard to your pc. Making a nandroid won't really help, coz then you'll be restoring an older nandroid to a phone with a newer firmware, which doesn't work well. If you're completely stock right now, you could make a nandroid, and then after updating, if you want stuff to be like before, you could restore only your data partition. Works on Viper, not sure about stock.

I use Titanium Backup Pro for that (there's also a free version), both require root though. if you need a solution without root, check out Helium; i've never tried it but it should also work.
for SMS and call logs, I use "SMS Backup & Restore" and "Call Logs Backup & Restore" by Ritesh Sahu, which work better than Titanium IMHO.
Then I put everything on my PC, and I'm good to go
Okay, maybe I confused you a bit here, lets do this step by step
1. Make a nandroid of your current rom(data partition) with twrp (make sure you copy this to your pc), backup all apps with titanium backup, copy all data from internal storage
2. Flash guru reset.
3. Flash OTA.
4. Flash twrp, get root
5. Make a nandroid of the new rom (just in case), and then restore only the "Data" partition from the nandroid backup. If it works, amazing. If not, restore all apps from titanium backup. Good luck

well can i just flash stock recovery instead of flash guru reset and than flash ota update.. if i can do so why i need to download that huge(1gb) file to just ota update.. also can u give me a download link to stock recovery.
Edit: i have got the link to stock recovery: http://d-h.st/rZj
Do i have to worry about anything else.. Things i will do now:
1. make a backup of all sd-card data
2. make a titanium backup of all apps
3. use Super Backup : SMS & Contacts to backup call logs, sms and contacts
4. make a nandroid backup of system
5. Flash the stock recovery
6. do an OTA update
I thing this much will do the update right? or is there anything to worry about?

Why I'm suggesting that you download the guru reset is that it'll ensure that you're completely stock before the OTA. having a rooted rom with all of those tweaks that anyone will generally install can cause many complications, so just to keep the process straightforward, rather do it. Leave it to download overnight By "nandroid backup of system", do you mean a complete backup or only of the system partition? Because, you need to make a backup of your data partition, not system. A complete backup will also do.

Try with version 2.6.3.0 or 2.6.3.3, some of the older ones don't allow copying of backups because of some form of encryption

2- flashed stock recovery (the usual way)
3- took pictures (attached)
4- flashed back the same CWM
5- rebooted, and it hit me with the setup wizard, skipped it, and boom, NOTHING on the phone except the ROM
6- i didnt wipe anything except the "fastboot erase cache"

thanks for ur help guys, everything is working fine, i think volume is decreased a bit, getting less sound than previous. Do u guys know how to claim the 25GB free google drive space, i even tried to lock the boot loader but ins not working.. is there any way??
Installation:
Make sure fastboot is unchecked in power options and turn phone completely off
Boot into HBOOT then Fastboot
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
OR
Flash via Rom Manager(must have root already).
Downloads:
You can now flash in Rom Manager in rom if rooted
Use this (the recovery img) - http://sonic-developers.com/testing/mythi/m8/

Awesome! It's great to see cwm finally here. How is it running? Does it have the same issues that the other two recoveries are having with restoring backups? If not I'd flash this immediately, but I'd like to see some feed back first.

No, didn't hurt. It boots, it flashes, it backs up and restores. Aroma installer looks like a bad tv screen, the same thing on latest PhilZ recovery and usb option still doesn't connect as on any other recovery.
As I didn't much more, time will show what else works or not. I like the idea of swiping, also scrolling up and down is a little pain until you foind out how it works.
Guys you can flash that and use it without nuking your devices. Some more feedback would be welcome. You shouldn't miss the rainbow mode... :laugh:

Android_secure.img? Did you back up that particular directory? If it restores boot.img, system and data that should be enough to restore your device completely.
Android_secure is being skipped here as well, after these three particular backups have been restored. So it's neither important, nor needed!
For backups I'm using online nandroid backup. Very comfortable as you don't need to boot into recovery to do a nandroid backup and it can be customized the hell out of it. No need for any settings in recovery (missing here anyways) so. Give Nandroid Manager a go as well on your device if you need single files being restored.
Ey and I LIKE SWIPING with this recovery. It's the future... Touch was yesterday.
I'll keep it on my device and walk through the functions the next days.
now people ... i need detailed details of whats working and whats not ... i want this to get stable :laugh:
