Guest TrollFaceEngaged Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 (CWM 4.0.1.5) I've run into a problem which i can say is my mistake but is not very serious. Last weekend, I tried renaming my nandroid backup files on the computer while it was connected via USB. I did this becuase I found recognising the right ROMs a bit difficult with all the dates/numbers and all. This went well until I installed xiaoyaswim's MIUI Mix and Match ROM but I didn't have time to restore everything so I decided to reboot into CWM and restore my earlier Atomic backup. I tried to restore it but is came up with the message "checking md5s....." ---> "md5s not matched".:( I just simply went back to my MIUI rom which I had just installed and started restoring everything (Ti backup, contacts etc.). To sum up my question, is there any way that I could get my backups back as they were ?(like I could install them again if anything went wrong), but one of the backups is also my Stock Orange ROM. Also I am also a bit of a noob when it comes to CWM. Thanks in advance tho ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest plegdroid Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) easy way, is just to fill any gaps you've left between what you retitled your back ups to. cwm dosnt like gaps! you'd to place -_. ect, between the words like cm9-22-02-12-copy-with-softkeys , just don't leave any spaces. you can fill the gaps and still have your own discriptions :) if that makes sense..

Guest PedroVader Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) I'm sorry I'm quite confused with what to do (ABSOLUTE NOOB)..... that link you gave me is quite confusing on what I have to do..... lots of ways to do it :( no worries, I'm hoping you've got ADB installed on your PC already? if you've done it the accepted way it'll be in the root of your C: drive. Navigate to wherever it's installed, hold down "Shift" on your keyboard and right-click in the folder, in the sub-menu that pops up, select "open command prompt here" and you'll get something like the window below: type the commands below replacing "2010-06-29.20.22.53" with the folder name in your "Clockworkmod\backup" folder adb shell # cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-06-29.20.22.53 The next step removes the MD5 tag in the folder # rm nandroid.md5 The next step rewrites a new MD5, based on the files in the folder. # md5sum *.img > nandroid.md5 takes about 30 seconds to a minute, when the last # appears its done. when it's done, just reboot into recovery, and restore as normal. Hope this helps edit: Looks like I took too long typing that up for you Edited March 5, 2012 by PedroVader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
