I should be getting my replacement from ATT today.
Can I just restore the nandroid image on the new phone through CWM (through the update zip and recovery) or is it best to just re-flash and restore via TiBu?

Second method wud be my choice. Atleast most of us know it works
A nandroid backup will not work from a different ROM version. So, you will not be able to just restore your backup once you get into CWM. You can flash the ROM you had previously, the one you made the backup of and then once that is installed you can restore your backup and you should be like you were.
Hello,
I need to know before install Overcome & CWM if it's possible to backup my stock KERNEL. Currently i have 2.6.36.3 kernel.
I think that is better to restore with the original kernel if need to use tha warranty one day ?
So is it possible to backup or download the stock KERNEL.
Thanks a lot for your help.
before you do anything get a nandroid backup and save that original nandroid backup.
Nandroid Backups are a full ROM backup, that means:
Radios
ROMs
Kernels
User Data
Trying to claim a warranty after you violate the terms and services isn't the most honest thing to but if you intent to cheat the warranty system that just hold on to your backup. A nandroid backs up everything
Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reply. For the warranty I am okay with you regarding the honesty.
About the Nandroid ROM backup, i read somewhere that full backup must be done but it backup all except the Kernel !
I am little bit lost :
1/ The KERNEL Backup can be done with Nandroid backup ?
2/ Can we make Nandroid backup with stock ROM & stock Kernel (fresh TAB) ?
3/ The CWM is it a Kernel ?
Thanks a lot.

CWM stands for clockwordmod, its a custom recovery. You need a custom recovery before you can start changing things about your tablet. It is Not a kernel. Think of a car. A kernel is like eh engine, the recovery is like a toolbox. Its more complicated but thats the idea. The stock recovery is too limited, which is why we have custom ones
When you do a nandroid back up it backs up everything. When you do a nandroid back it backs up the kernel as well as the ROM all of your settings and app data. All in one.
If you want a stock nandroid Do it first thing after you have a custom recovery. A nandroid is saved in the clockwordmod folder. Then save that file somewhere safe. Flash drive computer t whatever.
Hope this helps

Here is the Flashable zip for backup your Old recovery and kernel
First, You need root
From your stock recovery, Flash backupkernelrecovery.zip.
Approximately 30 seconds, backup process will make a folder "mybackups" in your SD card,
Reboot as normal, and Open "My Files" and see folder "mybackups"..
You'll find 2 file recovery.img(your stock recovery) and boot.img (stock kernel)
For Restore your recovery.img
download overcome cwm from alterbridge86 thread, unzip the file and replace recovery.img from that files with yours..zip again and flash from recovery, reboot and you got your old stock recovery..
Warning: Only restore Stock recovery after nandroid Restore done..with same firmware
Tested on my P7300 and works..
Hello All
Thanks a lot for your help.

Is it possible to create a nandroid backup with a rooted device having a 3e recovery?
I would like to backup my ROM before I try to flash a different ROM or recovery on it.
I have seen links to a nice script: online nandroid backup (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620255) but unfortunately it seems, it too requires a CWM recovery.
Thanks,
Well, turns out it does support recovery 3e after sending emails to the creator who also solved some bug causing it not to work.
Thanks to Ameer Dawood. I haven't actually tried to restore the backup (for that I have to get the CWM recovery). but it does make the backup now.
Trying to restore my HTC One using a Nandroid backup.
Before i try to experiment i just wanted to confirm on the process
boot into recovery
select back up restore option
select restore backup
select the backup you wish to restore and let it do its thing
then reboot
Iam running on cwm recovery v6.0.3.6 so i hope i need to place the file in/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/filename.zip.
can some one please confirm me on the same ?
Thanks in advance.
