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.

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.

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


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

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!

So does anyone know a way to boot into this if you are looping or have it set for when the phone powers on? Im paranoid with the leak!

Wipe dalvik, cache, data. Boot normally and skip setup. Install recovery and reboot into it from the app. Restore nandroid.

Do you have Busybox installed? Pressing the top button in the app just installs the recovery. Pressing the "reboot ics recovery" button will reboot you into recovery. As long as you can reboot into recovery you should be good. Also make sure you delete the su-backup file in /system before you try to restore any nand backups.

Hey, PillClinton, that definitely worked for me & I've been wondering why I couldn't restore System fm my nandroid backup for quite a while.

Excellent catch on this, you've enhanced my ability to do mods & feel safe doing so; now I don't have to go back to my pc rescue my Razr Maxx using Matt's util. I can restore fm the nandroid b/u on my device!

Hearty thanks! seeker

I would redo the backup because if you delete it now, then restore it, that file will be restored too. I'd delete the backup, the use the Root Keeper app to delete the file, then do a fresh backup.
