Enjoy

Hey thanks for taking the time!
This would require a wipe correct ?

thanks, i'm sure this will help someone while they are trying to build from source and if they brick their device.

no

How do I install this?
As and update.zip in CW?

Yes, please let us know where to throw this to be ready to use it I have an AOSP build cooking right now (OSX) for the S, and I want to have this ready to trigger a restore from if I nuke my phone

sure, unzip this and mount usb storage on your phone. Copy the unzipped folder into the clockworkmod/backup on the phone then go into recovery -back up and restore -restore to verify its there.

Thanks for your help
So I created a folder inside of clockwork called"backup"
I placed the unzipped file into there
I ran the phone in recovery and found the file
when i restored from it this is what i got
checking MD5 sums.....
MD5 mismatch!
Any ideas?
Thanks again for all your work

No problem ! So sounds like maybe there was an error when you initially unzipped the file so go ahead and unzip it again and try that.
i know sounds so simple but hey you never know

Yeah i got the same error last night i think the error occurs during the transfer to the phone if its disturbed or strained in some way. So delete the back up from the phone and be sure the only thing your doing on the pc at the time is putting the back up back on the phone..... it worked for me

Why would I be getting and MD5 missmatch

I'm getting the md5 mismatch too, I managed to fastboot erase /system (like an idiot, none of the system.img's I have are flashing...) And I kinda NEED this nandroid or I'm a bit screwed. How to solve md5 issue?

I downloaded it to my phone and extracted with root explorer. Moved it to clockwork backup and it worked perfectly...

I keep getting an md5 mismatch, i can't boot the phone as there's no /system (erased via fastboot - not a good judgement call from me...) How did you get it to run in cwm recovery?

[Q] How Backup-TA works ? is it supposed to be just 177kb ?

Hi All,
Totally new to the site.. was looking around for an answer but no much luck.
So question is how does backup ta works. I rooted the phone, and used the tool and now it has a backup. which is only 177kb
And does this mean that, later if i decide to go back to the stock rom, I can just recover from this backup ?
Thanks heaps for your help
Pavi:silly:

ounds like you backed up the cache only..?
What backup tool you use?
CM recovery or TWRP?

Compressed it can be 177KB, but that can be different per backup since the actual content isn't static. Extract the ZIP and check the size of TA.img, it should be 2MB (2048KB) round. Next time you better ask it in the Backup TA thread. Only read this one by coincidence .

yes!!

Help Needed By a guy with rooted GB Firmware

Hi,
As i'm playing with partitions (actually trying to find a way to easily switch from JB to GB and vice versa ), i need a little help by someone on rooted GB.Actually i need some files from GB firmware (don't tell me to extract it.they won't be there).If anybody is here then contact me then i'll send you script.It'll automatically save them on sdcard.You only need to compress (just to save yours and mine bandwidth) and upload them.

good

I dont think anyone will send you anything unless you tell us what fw version you have and what exactly the script will collect.

I only needed some partitions (/dev/block/mmcblk0px where x≠3,4,5,6,7,8,9,15 because they're known partitions and are useless for me).
no problem if nobody i gonna help.I'll collect them myself (i could have got them myself by flashing GB firmware but my internet is crap and it'll take almost a week to download it)

also remove mmcblok0p7 (efs) and if more concerned about security then also remove mmcblk0p2 (modemfs)
and every thing there will be encrypted.So they're useless.

Lost imei number and can't make calls, search for networks or anything

Hallo! I have a problem where mobile connection doesn't work. When I try to connect manually it doesn't work it just gives me an error with no details in it. This happened after attempt on installation of Mackay kernel it worked but I noticed the mobile connection was dead after a while I ran a restore but stil the same problem. The efs folder is empty with a lost+found folder there is also nothing in that folder. When I click manage mobile contract it tells me that I need to put the SIM card in but it is inserted. HELP!!

Is your IMEI still intact or does it begin with something like 0044?
(If you don't know where to find it, go Settings -> About Device -> Status)

Did you ever do nandroid backup before? If yes, it contains also the efs folder.
BTW, if nandroid backup was done with different ROM, kernel or CWM version, don't try to restore it with Mackay kernel!!
You must flash as furst the same ROM and same kernel and use the same CWM recovery version to successfully restore your nandroid backup.
Otherwise, you could flash some stock firmware and imei usually returns then. People report that Gingerbread JVU usually restores the imei number quite regularly. If your current ROM uses different partitions than stock firmware, you may have to flash also the PIT file to make step back to stock with success, PIT file will do proper re-partition.
Otherwise, there are quite many threads about how to restore lost imei on the i9000. Take some time browsing around.

Great!
Now backup your whole efs folder with the terminal emulator or ADB and save it on several places (different folders on internal and external SD as well as on your PC). It is explained how to do it in my thread.
BTW, on this forum it is kind of nice to click on "thanks" button leftmost beyond all helpful posts.

I know about the thanks button. Just because I'm a new member doesn't mean I haven't been around on this site for quiet a while.
But how do you backup the EFS folder?

I've already written you: it was described in my newest thread, I've posted it also here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45551390#post45551390
The same commands like in the terminal emulator can be done by the ADB as well.
You can easily find good threads here on XDA forum how to backup & restore IMEI

But for great tipps you should not forget to "klick" the thanks button ...it doesn`t hurt :fingers-crossed::good::laugh:

How about a quick "how-to" for the rest of us. TWRP, root etc. if used, or at least how you went about flashing the stock ?

just search in the forum you'll find loads of tutorial in how to do it.
Install TWRP
download file from link above
send to phone via sd card or TWRP adb push (google it)
use twrp to install from backup.
Need more help? come back and we'll try again.

according to a search in Google its not possible to be retail and have a demo because its 2 different ROMS.
you can use TWRP to wipe everything Data, Dalvik and System.
Then use the backup.
This are tips so please use at your own risk.

dont know what to say to that, however, you can try this:
http://repo.xposed.info/
install framework (use flash mode) and look for module BootManager. You can choose witch apps will run at system start. Disable demo app.
Make sure you follow all instructions and good luck.
let us know how it goes.
