using nandroid backup and rebooting?

can I go to rcovery use nandroid and then just reboot?. Just curious I dont remember the commands in recovery.
Use cyanogen's latest recovery. ON the recovery menu you can restore your latest backup. I don't remember the syntax for restoring a older backup though.

[Q] Nandroid help

Okay so I'm kinda lost on how to do nandroid. After I wipe do I flash the ROM i want then do the nandroid or do I just wipe and do the nandroid?
Nandroid backs up your phone. I'd do a nandroid before wiping. Then I'd wipe and flash new roms and such. After you get yer new rom set up, I'd suggest making a nandroid backup of that as well.

Wipe the current install and restore the nandroid backup you want to return to.

you should not restore one roms data to another one as it will also restore system data too which can cause abnormal issues like wifi/Bluetooth not working or else
you need to set system data manually and you can restore user data with titanium backup
use Titanium Backup to backup apps..when you flash a new rom,just restore apps from Titanium Backup....thats it.......just apps,not apps and data.
if you want to backup rom,then you go with CWM

[Q] Complete backup

How can I make a complete backup from my installed apps and settings?
I would like to install a new ROM and I do not want to lose my settings.
Go to CWM and backup menu there backup..
You can restore it latter after experimenting other roms if u want to, directly from CWM, same backup menu and restore..
Here the full system and apps and all data is backed up to sd-card.
Here you want require to flash the rom just restore.. and ya if you hav unlocked bootloader and use rom with custom kernel then flash the kernel and then restore..
These is a full rom backup..
Or get titanium backup from playstore..
Here you need to flash the rom and then restore from the app, after instaling the app..
These backup can be restored on any rom from the app..

Nandroid backup qs

Hi... If I do a nandroid backup then relock my boot loader, flash an ruu then restore the backup, will it restore my device to before the lock and flash? If so how would I back-up so that it doesn't do that?

If you make a nandroid and want to keep it you will need to copy it to your PC before running the RUU. And then copy it back to your internal storage afterwards as the Ruu will wipe your internal storage.
Restoring the nandroid would restore your ROM and apps to as it was before but you will still have the updated firmware. If your old rom and new rom are on the same base i.e both lollipop roms you can restore just the Data partition from your nandroid without effecting the new rom. But this is not recommended it updating from kitkat to lollipop.
You can also use titanium backup to backup your data then restore it to your new rom once you've finished updating. But again you will need to save your titanium backup folder to your PC before using the ruu.
In short if your updating from Lollipop to newer version of lollipop. You can use the Restore Data only from nandroid method.
Kitkat to Lollipop Titanium Backup would be best.
