Newby Questions - LG Optimus Black

Where can I get Nandroid? I searched the Market and can't find any backup app called Nandroid.
Also, what does deodexed and zipalligned mean?

OK bud, 1st. You can do a nandroid backup from clockworkmod. Do you have stock recovery? Is your phone rooted? You can also do a backup with titanium backup but that's a bit different.
Most important here is cement. Gotta have rootfirst then gotta have cmw.

Nandroid backup with c5

Hey guys I would like to try out the new perception, but I really like c5. Does anyone know if I can do a back up in cwm and flash perception, then come back and restore c5? I don't want to do anything that isn't tested yet with the gb bootloaders. Thanks ahead of time.

Cm7 contacts restore

Yesterday I went from tweaky rom to Cm7, but now all my contacts are gone. I backed them up with Titanium Backup but they don’t show up after a restore. Anyone knows what to do?

I had EXCATLY same problem, and I think you cant restore them, (unless they are on your SIM-card)
Its becouse CM7 is 2.3.4 imo...
Flash 2.3.3 rom and your contacts will come back
Is there an 2.3.3 version of cm(7) that I can use?

Same situation here. Thinking of going back 2.3.3 to export my contacts then back to CM7 and import them. Gonna get my friend to help me with his SGS, might save me some flashings?
Is there anyway like..converting/extract contacts.db?

Only restore apps and data. Restoring system data can mess you up. There are some system data, the ones with the titanium icons, that work ok. They are messaging, wireless, etc. Have Google back up and restore your phone and contacts.

I'm running vincom's superlite,superfast right now. I like his roms. But it's a personal preference.
Edit: oops, forgot which forum I was in. I'm running it on my phone. Don't try it on your device. My bad

restore with out root?

Hello Ive seen a post on how to restore with root, But I would like to restore with out root, can someone please point me in the right direction. thanks.
BTW this is for the Verizon sch-1800
What do you mean by "restoring"? Restocking ? Restore from backup?
You need root to do these things...
Incorrect. Restoring from nandroid needs only the custom recovery.
Restoring system apps and data using tools like Titanium backup requires root.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
But you need root to install custom recovery. Is it right?
Nope. Just flash a kernel that has cwm using Odin/heimdall. ( example: overcome kernel 4.0)
No root needed. Just boot to download mode, flash. Done.

I'm sorry I guess I wasn't clear with my question I want to restock my device to factory stock and be rid of root and superuser.
