CMW help

Is there a site or way to make my own CWM flashable zips for CMW 3.X.X.X.X. I downloaded a zip file I would like to flash but it is for the old CMW and will not flash. Its an .apk file and will not install properly by just running the file in the OS itself.

Do a search for "amend2edify". Should convert it.

No need to delete, just install zip from sd card. Just make sure you don't have the i, m or c model ace.

[Q] How to make a rom backup (from rom manager) to become a flashable version of CWM?

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.

[TUT]How to Create flashable zip from nandroid backup

Hi there guys, today i shall show you how to make a flashable zip from your cwm backup!
REQUIREMENTS:
Windows OS
The Nandroid Backup
A tool(not mine, attatched below)
Brain
Now, copy all files from your backup to the folder where you extracted the tool.
Now it should look somewhat like this:
Code:
.android_secure.vfat.tar.
nandroid.md5
boot.img
cache.yaffs2.img
data.yaffs2.img
recovery.img
system.img
bkp2zip.bat
unyaffs.exe
cygwin1.dll
Run the "bkp2zip.bat".
Now there should be 3 files:System,Data and boot.img
now zip those three files.........And you should have a flashable update.zip!
TESTED METHOD!

Please note; to prevent confusion this will only work on CWM based backups not TWRP ones.
