Big thanks to @dhacker and @DROIDHIVE for giving me this to test out and share to all of you.

I have tested this out and it works great. The only thing that does not work is, mounting USB, other then that nandroids, advanced restore, and flashing are all functioning properly.

Install the apk as any other app.

I guess I got lucky. I installed safe strap and didnt have a problem.

LOL! Nice catch.

EDIT: Advanced Restore, Restoring system always fails every single time.

The restore fails when it encounters "su backup".


rm: can't remove '/system/su-backup': Operation not permitted
rm: can't remove '.' or '..'

Either install a terminal emulator on your phone or use the adb shell.
Type "su" and hit enter. If you're using a terminal emulator on your phone, a superuser access notification will pop up. Allow it.

Then type the following:
chattr -i /system/su-backup
and hit enter. Try restoring again.

I'm not completely sure if that's the problem, but it's worth trying.

EDIT: You might not even need to use su for that. But whatever.

also did u mount the system cause if you did not, in recovery, ur not accessing the actual system partisan

[BigDaddyHicks]

Going to Advanced Restore, then restoring system does not work for me. No nand restore option works on my phone, any suggestions?

[DirtyDroidX]

Try mounting the system.

[BigDaddyHicks]

Try mounting the system.

Thanks! I'll try that later and let you know what happens. I understand that you didn't make the recovery or anything but it's extremely hard to get ahold of DHacker lol.

[ssmaynv]

It's always the little things. I was able to execute the command successfully, but the restore still fails. I've wiped cache and dalvik but It's entirely possible that all the tweaking I've done today is causing it to fail though.

lol no problem i tested it out for him and just gtalk him and bullshit all the e time with him I was talking g to him about it. So that came straight from the horses mouth. I mounted the system last night and restored a backup just fine.

Posted this in another thread as well, but here it is again.

Question for you: Do you use Voodoo to protect your root? If so, before booting into recovery & attempting to restore your nandroid backup, open Voodoo and delete your backup of root. This has caused issues for me previously! Let me know if this works for you

[ssmaynv]

That was it! Deleting Voodoo backup fixed the restore problem. Thank you.

[PillClinton]

You're welcome, glad that did the trick!

[BigDaddyHicks]

You're welcome, glad that did the trick!

Are you talking about deleting the su-backup file in /system? Everytime I mount as rw i get "delete failed."

No. Just open up the app. If you have already backed up root, there are 2 options. Just click the one that says Delete su backup and you'll be good to go!

You are the man! Thank you! I deleted the file, did a backup, then instead of an advanced restore, I just did a regular restore and everything went without a hitch. Thanks again man!
