Hi all.
I've attempted to update my Nexus 4 from Cyanogenmod 10.1.x to stock Android 4.4, and I don't like the result. I want to go back.
If there's a better place for Clockworkmod-specific queries, please let me know.
I have made a complete clockworkmod backup and moved the file to my pc via CWM'-s mini web server (the registered version). But what I can't figure out is:
>> How do I move a CWM backup zip file BACK to the device, so that CWM will restore it? <<
I have tried to put the zip file at "/storage/legacy/emulated/clockworkmod/backups", and ROM Manager then lists it in its restore menu -- but tells me "ROM Manager is unable to open this file. Please remove any spaces from your file and folder path. Or run it manually via Clockworkmod Recovery."
When I reboot into recovery, there are no backups to restore.
The zip file is named "2013-12-09_b4_cm10.2.zip" ... but not originally. I created the file as "2013-12-09 b4 cm10.2.zip" (with spaces instead of underscores) and that was accepted. It's sad if CWM "forgets" to check that the file name is valid for restore!
I have other (older) backups that I could try, but I really want to use this latest one.
