OK showmestuff-S2... lets try a long shot shall we?

Get into Recovery.

Go down, using the volume key, to - backup and restore and select it using the Home key.

I the next menu go to - advanced restore from internal sdcard and select it using the Home key.

Hopefully, you will have made a backup using CWM in the past to your internal SD Card and, again hopefully, it will now be showing on screen.

If this is the case, use your Home key to restore it.

Hope this helps.

I think you may have a cwm version conflict between the version installed on the last kernel you installed and your cwn backup.

If you have previous kernel .zip files still on your phone (I always keep a few on mine just in case) then flash this first then try restoring your backup. You should then be fine.

I think you have cwm5 (blue text) and your backup was done in cwm4 (orange text)

 

[showmestuff-S2]

cwm v4.0.1.5

 

[Hawker]

for what?
Last version, version at point of backup or both?

 

[showmestuff-S2]

both i think

 

[showmestuff-S2]

ive not updated cwm since i did the back up

 

[Sydney99]

i cant get it to connect with laptop
in kies it doesnt connect

But can you restart in download mode and connect to odin?

 

[showmestuff-S2]

Delete them to the recycle bin of your PC.

The CheckROM .zip should be placed on your internal SD Card and flashed using CWM as per the instructions here:-

Either, if you made one in the first place, restore using Titanium Backup Pro or sign into your Market account and most, if not all, your app's should be restored. You may have to re-add the free app's.

 

[showmestuff-S2]

i did make back ups with titanium pro it took ages
but when i load titanium it doesnt show my apps to restore it give me the option to back up existing apps

 

[showmestuff-S2]

even the back up i made of everything in cwm has gone

i had full battery last night
went to bed woke up 8 hours later to a completely dead phone
it wouldnt start in any mode
then it said in orange something like
not enough battery to download when i tried odin mode
in the end i got abit of battery and now im all charged

the only thing what remains on the phone is my contacts
which is a good thing
nope ive just realised they are on the sim
its something i s'pose

Did you change the filter type to Uninst? That will display all backed up apps that are not currently installed.

If you've still got your nandroid backup then app extractor from the market will extract apps from the back up
