well it could be really a nooby question.!! plz excuse me for that i am a new to these things.!!

q) what is rom dump??(basics only plz)

 

[saivignesh]

an complete backup of the available rom

 

[RD07]

then what about the nandroid backup we create by CWM recovery.!! are these two different.??

 

[mastermind1024]

They both are same but this method can be useful for those who dont have cwm recovery for their device...romdump can be useful for those people to create custom roms..

Hi when you say that you dont need CWM installed. Can you just make this image then use it like a update.img?
