[Q] How to get rid of md5 check in CWM recovery ? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[Solved]
I found this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114
Sorry !
Hi,
I'm sorry to bother you guys, but I made some search about this and didn't find a satisfying answer.
I'm under hardcore K12L kernel, and I need to restore a dbdata.img.
I didn't change the repertory name of the backup, neither the name of the files (I only have dbdata.img and cache.img).
Before that, I had a data.img but I used voodoo cwm to restore it, because hardcore cwm wasn't able to restore it.
And then I came back on hardcore cwm to restore dbdata (voodoo cwm searched for a "datadata.img), and deleted data.img, had then md5 mismatch, so I deleted data.img line in the nandroids.md5 file, but then I had again an md5 mismatch.
I tried to regenerate md5sum with a md5 tool, which gave me logically the same exast md5 that i already have in my backup md5 file (so i guess the md5 check should be correct), but still, when I want to restore it, I always get a md5 mismatch.
How to get rid of this ? Could you help me please ?
PS : An option "enable/disable md5 check" in CWM would be really nice to avoid such problems. ^^

you are not the only one, i have the same issue, can someone help pls!!!

Go read the topic I linked to in my first post, and feel free to ask more details there or here if u need some help. My phone can tell, it can be done !

read the stick threads thoroughly and google ...

[Q] URGENT! IMEI screwed, need help to restore!

Hey, I got some problems. Posted in another forum, but it's very urgent so I post it here to. Just quoting what I previously posted.
Hey, flashed the JVS modem on top of the Chameleon Final. Didn't get any signal and the baseband version in settings stated "unknown". Tried another modem, JVO and flashed back to Chameleon modem, still not fixed. Also tried to wipe everything and install rom again... did not help either. Odin didn't report any errors whatsoever.
Desperate for some help her guys!

Got reply that my IMEI was screwed, and replied:
[quote author=bahafeld link=topic=1931.msg13081#msg13081 date=1316107492]
Okey, I have backup of my original EFS folder. Isn't it there the IMEI is saved? can I just copy it over again with Root Explorer?
Please help me out here. All the guides I've found have the EFS saved in a .tar format. However I just backed up the EFS folder with root explorer. Anyone know I can recover my EFS, tried just copying it back, but that did not work.
Its kinda urgent!

So I hope you guys at XDA can help me a bit faster.
Thx
bahafeld
if you have a .tar version of your EFS. Unzip it. Copy all the contents of it, And paste them to the /EFS on the phone. Making sure they overwrite the current contents.
Once that has done, Restart the phone without backing out of root explorer (or what ever app you are using to copy/paste these files).
If that fails, Repeat the above step but ONLY copy / paste the NV_data.bin & NV_data.bin.md5
And finally if that fails. Backup all your stuff using Titanium Backup (or similar) And re flash a stock Froyo ROM. Maybe older, its upto you.
That will Definitely restore the IMEI, Then re-root and go back to whatever ROM you wish.
Good luck.

Xrecovery MD5 sum mismatch

Hello,
I have rooted my X8 with Flashtool, and I have downloaded an xrecovery pack from thread on XDA. The case is that every time I make a backup and try to restore from it it fails, and the prompt writes MD5 sum mismatch. It happens every time, one a new backup, on different android versions.
Has anyone got any idea what is wrong ?
Thank you for your answers :]
Ru renaming the back ups if so you have a space. In it that y your getting that. If you name your backup like this
(Ginger bread) you will get m5 miss match .
So you need to right it like this (gingerbread) ie NO spaces in you name of you backups
super.sense on x8
md5 checksum failed

Ok try this
Install latest version of titanium
Open titanium -menu -extract from nandroid backup
And select your backup, it will give you.list of available.data, select.required.data.
Thats it.

there is no other way of backing up rom+data other than nandroid.
even if the md5 is not generated is the backup folder being made?

yes a folder with the date created is getting created in the storage.. some times does anywher between 200- 300mb, sometimes just 16 to 50 mb in size... ive flashed the latest CM10 kernel and the latest SuperSU according to another post... still no go...
if nandroid is very important for u. The go back to stock root, put safe kernel, wipe and then try to do backup
okay it finally worked after flashing the latest CM10 .tar through odin
Thanks for all ur help!!!
My problem and how I fixed it.
I made a nandroid backup. WHen it creates it, ya see it ceates it with a date.
I backed up the backup 3 times on my pc. but i renamed it to something like: Galaxy Note backup 2 Jan 10th 2013
then when i went to do a restore, MD5 Mismatch, so i read here no spaces, so i just renamed it to: notebackup
no spaces... and bang it worked. so make sure u dont have any spaces in it. it can be named whatever u want just no spaces.
hope that helps anyone...
Good Luck
I've a backup file, which I neither renamed or have any spaces in the file.. How come that When I'm trying to restore the file, its saying MD5 Mismatch. I've a GT-N7000..

You just qouted one of the solutions, and other solution is in the first post
Why not start some reading first...
The Problem is that I just checked, the Backup file Folder, & found that there is no MD5 file created.. How is this Possible?? Can I copy/Paste a MD5 File from one of the newer backups that I've in the Older Backup where there is no MD5 file & then try to restore?
Will I be able to do this?

I think it would not work...
On which kernel/rom you made this older backup which you want to restore? ...and on which kernel you are now?
I tried to do the below, but again the MD5 Mismatch..
How do I go back to my previous back up to be installed?? Can you please help??

are you use the backup was complete ? have you restored this backup before? if you are sure that the backup is complete and has worked.. then check with the new Philz kernel which has an option to toggle MD5 check. not sure if this will work but try..
My older version is a dell kernel.. Now I'm using a cm10.1 kernel.. After the backup was made I had not tried the restoring option.. Now while I'm trying to this is the problem I've seen...

CWM 5 MD5 Mismatch!

Hi guys, today i rebooted my phone, and it got stuck on android logo, so i figured something cameup and i had to factory reset it.
So i made a backup using CWM Touch 5 so i could restore my /data after wards. but after backing up. each time i try to restore it says MD5 Missmatch, i tried some solutions to fix it from here, didnt work for me. seems im missing nandroid.md5 file or something.
I m on Crash Rom v8 rooted. and I have the /data file as a .tar and i can access it on PC. can i restore it manually perhaps ?? thanks
