Root [MetroPCS/CDMA] md5 sum mismatch

[jtw1216]

OK, I did a backup of my stock ROM as soon as I rooted. Played around with the other roms & found that I get a better signal from the stock rom.
Now lol, here's the problem. When I back to restore, it tells me that the md5 sum is mismatch.
Is there a stock zip available for cwm? Don't know anything about twrp, more comfortable with cwm. Doesn't matter if it's bloated or not.
Thanks.

It would be faster for you to download goomanager which is 200kb and flash TWRP then for somebody to upload a CWM stock file which is over 1 gig.

OK, have no problem doing that. Then do I just flash the stock rom through twrp?

LOL OK, I followed the instructions for installing twrp & stock metro twrp. 2 problems: the metro file isn't a zip, & twrp has not back up file listed in internal or external

The metro stock file was compressed before uploading for easier uploading and downloading. You will have to extract it first before placing in your backup folder.

Boot into recovery and make a backup of your current system. Doing this will let twrp create all the folders automatically for you. Now you can put the extracted file you've downloaded in the backup folder and restore.

Aaaahh ok I understand now. I have to make another back up "through" twrp not cwm. Ok that makes sense. Lol a lil slow sometimes, but I want to make sure I do this right lol. As you know this baby isn't cheap, & not lookin to try and replace it if it breaks

All set back up again, thanks.

make sure to keep that backup on your sd card at all times.

Lol yeah. I plan to keep the folder "&" a backup. But this time in twrp. It's not the first time I had problems with md5 mismatch. Out of the 3 roms I really liked cm10. But all 3 left me with a poor signal. Don't know what's n the stock rom, but I get a real good signal. That's why I wanted to go back to it
