im now using AOKP rom build 40 my question is if i make a full back up with cwm recovery and install or flash another rom like miui 4 and make restore will it restore all apps and settings and account and screen widgets and every things !! cause it take along time to arrange screens and installing apps and making settings !!!
No. Android backup is a complete backup like your Norton ghost in windows.
When you restore, it will restore the complete rom.
Having said that, nandroid doesn't backup your /efs folder, which you should quickly do that if you first heard if this.
To backup apps + data , use titanium backup.
You can backup system apps and user apps.
But you should not restore system apps to dissimilar rom.

" nandroid doesn't backup your /efs folder, which you should quickly do that if you first heard if this. " what do u mean by that and what is nandroid ?
Android backup is the backup done via cwm recovery.
Efs
I mean go copy that folder to your PC now for safe keep.
It contains your IMEI .

is there a way to restore my latest nandroid backup in my current rom?
you need to be using Titanium Backup for your app backups. Nandroid is an image of your configuration, much like a system restore in windows (to make a loose comparison)

CWM Nandroid as mentioned above is the best choice. It backs up everything including /system/ also use Root Explorer to keep a backup of all your /system/, Then there's also the deodexed files from the done_app incase you screw up.
Just Use CWM Nandroid, File Expert, ROOT Explorer... or search XDA.
You can find appropriate topics, to make yours copy.
Bye

I believe you mean a nandroid backup...?
Have you tried Titanium Backup?
idk what nandroid backup means .
And i haven't tryed Titanium Backup is it possible to backup my room and then install the update.zip that i can create with it ?
Ya a nandroid backup is exactly what u are looking for.... it can make a 100% backup of yer currant rom n u can restore from it incase u need to... titanium backup is the best backup app... I highly recommended it to backup individual appz ....to make a nandroid backup... go to yer bootmenu then recovery n select backup.... that's it...

Titanium backup. It's in the play store
1st u do backup all apps via titanum backup...then u do a rom backup via nandroid backup in cwm.....then u may flash another rom..and restore all ur apps via titanum backup....but..if anything running not very well or u just want ur previous rom...u can just restore back ur previous rom via cwm(that will be ur nandroid backup)...
Note that original stock rom can't be backed up with cwm

I went to stock Eclair(from GDx) and I wanted to restore my Contacts and SMS from Nandroid Backup. I tried to do it with AppExtractor but it had NO effect. So I loaded the "mmssms.db" and "telephony.db" from the Backup and put it in the correct directory with correct permissions. After rebooting I had CONSTANT Phone, Messages, Acore(Home) FC and I couldn't do Anything!
Suggestions?
