Here's the solution :-

1. Start phone in recovery mode, by turning it on while holding "Home" and "Power"

buttons.

2. Plug the phone into the PC with a USB cable

3. Start Windows Command Prompt on your PC, by pressing Start on your PC and typing

CMD into the run or search bar depending on your operating system. Then selecting

Command Prompt.

4. Within the command prompt window, change the directory to the one your adb tools

are by typing the following:

cd c:\sdk\tools

5. Then type:

adb shell

6. Now type:

mount /sdcard

7. Now you need to change directory again to the one holding your nandroid back-up

data, so first type

cd /sdcard

8. Then type:

cd nandroid

9. Now you need to find the specific name for the folder that holds your Nandroid

Backup images, so type:

ls

and view the list that appears.

10. Now to enter the folder you want to back up to type

cd HT**********

obviously replacing the *s with your numbers and letters. FYI the number string

is your Device Serial number.

11. Again type

ls

and view the list that appears.

12. Now to enter the folder you want to back up to type

cd BCD***-********-****

obviously replacing the *s with your numbers and letters. FYI the format of

these digits is BCDXYZ-YYYYMMDD-HHMM from when the back up was created.

13. Now type:

nandroid-mobile.sh restore

14. Just press enter to select default.

15. Double check that the Default backup that is found is the one you want then

press enter again. Your selected backup will now be restored. When your CMD

window looks like the one below you can reboot your phone and it will be as

you remember it.

Probably you are not giving a right Nandroid backup command or the nandroid backup is corrupt, try giving the commands carefully.

Keep this piece of information you'll be needing it a lot if you flash Custom ROM's on your device.

Don't delete them just yet!

Funnily enough, i have had the same error message this morning whilst trying to restore from recovery and after some digging, discovered it was because my battery was not charged enough.

Charged my phone for 10 minutes and now the nandroid restore is running. Didn't need to use adb.

Not saying that is definitely your problem, but I got the same error message and it solved mine.

Cheers,

LOL. :P

That was my problem too. Low batter. I plugged my phone into charger.... rebooted and it worked. I got that error message too. So don't worry. It is not corrupt or anything.
