Root Re-Naming Nandroids?

[Justintoxicated]

sticky?

All, FYI: I added a Nandroid backup verification function to my AFV (Android File Verifier) app [free in the Android Market].

It does a couple of things for you:

1. Checks that the name of the directory containing the nandroid.md5 file does not have any wonky characters (like space, ampersands, etc.) that might cause custom recovery or the nandroid-mobile.sh script to have problems.

2. Verifies the MD5 checksums of the files listed in the nandroid.md5 file. Even though nandroid-mobile.sh does this before restoring a backup, you can do it after you've made your backup for extra warm and fuzzies .

3. For Nandroid backups whose base directory is /sdcard/nandroid/SERIALNO, it verifies the SERIALNO against your actual device's serial number to ensure that your custom recovery will be able to find the Nandroid backups. This is the naming format for Amon_RA's custom recovery's Nandroid backup directories. I don't have custom recovery on my Droid X, so I don't know for sure if this is the same naming standard used by Koush's ClockworkMod (let me know if/what it is and I'll support a check for this too).

Anyway, to do these checks, just download AFV, launch it, use the Select File button to navigate to your Nandroid backup directory. Select and long-press the nandroid.md5 file and select Verify Nandroid Backup.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers!

Lol! How you been these past couple of weeks? I've been busy with tweaking the app and Amon_RA's custom recovery for the Eris (making it work without needing the trackball). I haven't had time to poke my head around here, but I'll try to more...

I saw it show up in the recent section of the market and downloaded your app a couple days ago...really cool, thanks.
It does all the above AND has a super sweet looking icon in the app drawer
