Can anyone help. Nandroids don't work. Flashing a 4.1.2 ROM doesn't either. Any ideas?

Bump!

Additional info: I am currently on CWM 6.0.1.5. My old backups are in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup and they are also in /data/media/0/clockworkmod/backup. I have tried to wipe my phone and reflash JBSOURCERY V3.2 and the phone wouldn't boot. So I had to reflash the new JBSOURCERY preview and the use the newest nandroid I had made. One question I have is do I need to move the whole clockworkmod folder to the new location and merge the new data with the old? If so can I use root explorer to do it or do I need to use adb? Any help would be awesome. Thanks!

You can't select your nandroid?

They don't show up. I know when you upgrade to 4.2, the file structure changes for the different users. When I moved just the old backup to the right spot I could see it but when trying to restore I got an error and the restore wouldn't complete. The phone then wouldn't go past the Google logo, until I restored the 4.2 nandroid.

Made a nandroid, Titanium Backup, charged it and made sure I had TWRP 2.3.2.1 and rocked on... After setup I tried a Titanium Backup restore and it seemingly worked (for the most part).

no worries about moving folders and stuff around right?

No worries, but i wouldn't use anything but root explorer to move them. I generally use File Manager as my...well.. file manger but had all kinds of issues with things not getting transfered with these 4.2 roms. Haven't had a single issue when using Root Explorer.

Copy the entire folder and let it merge

Ok I will give it a try and report back. When I restore the old nandroid will it fix the file system change of 4.2?

tdevaughn · Dec 3, 2012

somewhat... once you get all the files merged... you are good to go

Danielson2047 · Dec 3, 2012

Apparently if you use TWRP recovery it will prevent the "0" file issue. I've never used it though personally, only CWM.

waviiboiied · Dec 3, 2012

what folders do we have to merge when flashing the new rom. im running with twrp. just installed latest one from goo

Thank you, I will let you know the files are still merging.

cusjs · Dec 4, 2012

So after the long process of merging on my phone (3hrs +). I tried to restore my backups from /data/media/0, and it stated the directory was not found. Not sure where clockworkmod looks for the backups.

It looks in data/media. If its not already there, create "clockworkmod" then "backup" inside it and put your backups in there. Then cwm will see em.

I am loving this. Let you know what the newest "present" is like

That worked. But I just got the error message "UID's on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable."

My phone seems to be FUBARed.

Dirty flash Rom and gapps and see of it fixes that issue

So I tried the dirty flash, and that didn't fix it.

To fill in possible gaps in what I did; I moved my CWM's to the data/media/... I then restored one of my nandroids which took me from 4.2 to 4.1.2. After that I downloaded the latest 4.2 from JB and wiped x 3 and flashed both the new 4.2 and new gapps. The MD5 was gtg. I re-downloaded all my apps from the market manually.

How do you get the nav bar widgets to work? I've never done it and want to give it a shot

I 2nd that. I was never able to figure it out on 3.2.

tdevaughn · Dec 4, 2012

dont see the option on the nav key options yet...

once it is there... in the nav bar select which key or long press you want to associate.. sleect widgets as the option (again not available yet). Then scroll to the botton to configure widgets and you can select the ones you want to add.

bcote311 · Dec 4, 2012

Cool, thanks! I saw a video online about a "toggle widgets" nav bar setting and just wanted to make sure i wasn't missing something
