NANDROID Backup / Restore Without cwm for any android device

In this tutorial you won't need CWM to create NANDROID backups or restore them, also without rebooting the device to backup :)

Backup:

Requirements:

1- Terminal emulator application from playstore (Or adb shell from pc)

2- PC

3- Onandroid backup script with mkyaffs2image binary (check downloads below)

4- Enough free memory on memory card

5- Make sure your device is in usb debugging mode

Steps:

1- extract Onandroid.zip and run install_onandroid.bat

2- run terminal emulator or adb shell from pc and type the following without quotes:

   "su"

   "onandroid"

Then wait and it will take a nandroid backup on the sdcard

DATA IMAGE WILL BE CORRUPTED IF YOU HAVE A SECOND SDCARD PARTITION THAT IS TOO BIG BECAUSE SECOND PARTITION IS MOUNTED INSIDE "/data/"

Restore

Requirements:

1- Pc wth Adb and Fastboot (check downloads if you need them)

Steps:

1- Copy backed up files to Adb and fastboot folder

2- Run command prompt then type:
  "adb reboot-bootloader"
  "fastboot flash system system.yaffs2.img"      for system image

OR
  "fastboot flash data data.yaffs2.img"

Downloads:

Onandroid.zip

AdbFastboot.zip

Tips:

To backup system partition only type:

  "onandroid -a"

then type:

  "s"

without quotes.

or type:

  "d"

if you want to backup data partition only
