if its giving yo an md5 mismatch, most likely the backup is a bunch of empty files.
this would be a bug with the cwm.
if anyone has the time, im going to pull the boot and system and see if i can make a flashable img for odin.

i meant cwm backup/recovery option for this model. it's not implemented yet so boo
guess its back to pulling partitions
#after wiping /system, the bootloader was affected. here's some trial and error notes. (with less trial and error )
#update, was playing around with adb and the dd command again.
# jsyk, dd if=INPUT FILE of=OUTPUT FILE bs=4096
#this was just a test of restoring my system.img/boot.img i made about a week ago.
#command to back it up below.
# i renamed the files from the names i backed them up to my sdcard with and they still restored so the above command can be switched to just boot/system.img
###### IF YOU HAVE AN UNROOTED RUSH, PLEASE TEST THIS COMMAND OUT WITH ADB.
^^^ THIS MAY BE THE SOLUTION TO THE STOCK RECOVERY & FIXING OUR CURRENT WORKING CWM. COME ON HELP US OUT
#this is a method to fix bootloops.
after the restore, ive connected to wifi and my mobile network, everything is working as far as i know.
ive got a copy of the stock bootloader available upon request if anyone needs/wants it.

rofl, i completely forgot that. mind me, lack of sleep, blah.
we need to figure out how to dump stock recovery without rooting.
i suggest everyone with a few minutes to spare dd's while theres no stock rom yet, personal experience it will benefit you if anything /does/ happen.
you check this out @Shabbypenguin ?

romdump is a (very) simple program that dumps the BOOT, RECOVERY and SYSTEM partitions to your SDCARD, this will allow someone who is technicaly minded to create a recovery image... and that is a GOOD thing...
guess the best we can do now is a rooted [debloated] stock rom(?)

you can try running the romdump via adb without root. im not too sure if it requires root but it will not change ur current system and how it run, just copies and dumps.
let me know if it works.

thanks, we need mroe unrooted testers, theres a way to recover now so nothing is irreversible.
ive tried all the methods on the forum as a test dummy and i will test but the stock rom is what i dont have haha. i wish i pulled the fll stock rom beforehand though.
figuring out what was where was the pain haha

building an os just for android deving on this device right now
so that i will do. the stock system is not crucial at this point sicne we have images to flash to restore the system, btu that doesnt mean we dont need an easy restore method.
