Can i copy 1 single file apk from data.img created by cwm backup?
I need the highscores/saves from my angry birds and i don't want to do all my backup!
Apk is an installation package, not a application database. You can use a programm called 'unyaff.exe' to extract data and put it back in root mode.

Total noob here. I’m rooting for the first time and something did not go quite right so I want to restore the original configuration. I started with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=980669&highlight=So+you+bought+a+NOOKcolor%2C+now+what and made a backup using CWM (screen says v3.0.0.5) and made a backup as outlined. That seemed to ok and created 5 files on the mSD. When selecting “- Restore” CWM reports “Couldn’t open directory”. The files are still in the folder the backup created. What step am I missing? Do I need to more the files from the backup folder to a restore folder?
Thanks!
Do you have any spaces in your folder name?

No. I created a folder named backup in the root of the card. The backup process created a sub-folder named 2011-03-19.18.11.28. There are 5 files in the folder: boot.img, cache.img, data.img, nandroid.md5 and system.img.
TIA...
Is there any way to change clockworkmod backup to flashable zip. The backup use a lot of space when I move it to my pc and decide to restore back, the md5 checksum doesnt match,
Haven't heard such a feature of flashable zip for CWM backup files. Besides, it's already compressed, so if it's quite large then maybe you do have a lot of files and data in your device.
Regarding checksum not matched; please do not rename or delete any folder / files from CWM backup folder contents when you do backup to PC.

I faced the same problem few days ago, and this solution worked for me.

I've just flash a rom (download from xda, which is in *.zip format JB4.12) by CWM to my note 1, successfully.
Now I've just backup the rom, with some apps and data, by rom manager. However, the backup come with several files include a *.img instead of a zip file.
Anybody know, how can I make these files to become one *zip file, which I can flash it to the system and make it become factory default??
Please help...

I would suggest you taking a nandroid using CWM recovery..its easy to backup & restore..about your question regarding rom manager, may be you can put all the .img files into 1 .zip file, but i really don't know if it will make a flashable rom..
simply say, how to backup thwart whole roman with data which is flashable to cwm?
Nandroid backup backs up the entire rom and is restorable via cwm.

Thanks for prompt reply.
Will it create *.zip files that can be used to flash to factory default rom?
Not .zip AFAIK..it does on .tar format & another format (forgot the name)..anyways, u should be able to flash .tar using mobile odin..
It doesnot make a zip file. it makes a folder with the date and time when you made the backup. in it has ext4 files of you system,data cache, modem kernel etc.. all you need to do is boot into recovery and go to backup & restore and choose the folder you want to restore and it will do the job.. it doesnot require a zip file this way.
Story behind this zip file:
I messed up my tablet and I could only get into download mode , meaning I could flash a insecure boot.img and custom recovery.
I noticed that my EFS partition was erased when I entered a stock recovery, I got all kind of EFS error messages in recovery.
At first I tried to restore my system with a original ROM ODIN package but that doesn't restore your EFS. So no luck and still stuck in a bootloop.
So what to do? No adb , no EFS backup on my internalSD , I couldn't get acces to my internal SD.
I google around and I didn't find anything to restore EFS from within recovery or Odin. I didn't have a EFS.img backup on my internalSD so the emwo recovery was no help.
I do have a EFS backup that I took with EFS pro.
That generates a .tar and a .img file.
So I made myself a update package that I could flash from cwm. As I made the recovery I knew in what partition EFS is stored so that was easy.
This is the updater script , it should work on GT-N51... (10, 00, 20) as they all store the EFS in this partition.
Code:
show_progress(0.3,72);
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("1. START INSTALLATION");
package_extract_file("EFS.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3");
set_progress(0.99);
ui_print("------------------------------------------");
set_progress(1.0);
I renamed the EFS image backup that I took with efsPro to EFS.img and dropped it in the zip I made with the updeter script.
Flashed it with cwm and voila, running again without any problems.
SO in the attachments is the zip .
Open it with 7zip or winrar , drag and drop your EFS.img (needs to be this name) into the zip where the EFS-dummy text file is. put it on your externalSD , boot to recovery and flash it.
So I hope this helps the people out that come into the same situation as I did.
Thanks for the zip, I have my EFS backup, but I didn't know what to do if I had this problem!
You are a life saver!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Long story short, I was like you. my battery died, and for no apparent reason, I couldnt boot. I had download and recovery but no matter what rom i used no boot. Then i noticed in the logcat it was getting stuck on network initialization and also that twrp couldnt mount the efs partition.
I was looking for a way to restore the efs using adb sideload when i found this, popped in my efs backup and volia!
o yea i'm on the GT-i9300 (s3) but it worked like a charm! deffo keeping a copy of that zip just in case.
I have a .tar.gz efs backup compressed file. So how do I use it to flash via CWM?

Anyone have any idea how to proceed if you don't have a backup image of "EFS.img"? Luckily, I am able to boot and run fine, but I understand fixing the EFS will also fix my GPS. Thanks in advance.

Hello @ all,
I´ve made a CWM backup on my external sdcard. Now I want to restore this backup and all I get is an error saying MD5 mismatch. I read a while in this board (which often saved my life) and found out, that I had to delete the file nandroid.md5 (which even didn´t exist in my backup-folder). So i created a new, empty file. But no change, restoring my backup was not possible.
So please give me some hints what to do..
Thanks a lot,
Michael

Open a terminal shell, navigate to your NANDROID backup folder, and issue "md5sum *.tar.*> nandroid.md5"
