nand backups don't restore.

I have a few backups made a various times but after restoring, my phone won't boot, except for one which is in the middle.
Any suggestions?
 
Use the one that boots :D
Are you getting any error messages with the backups that dont boot? How long do the ones that dont boot take to restore compared to the one that does boot?
 
It varies between them. One of them will restore in a coupe of seconds so I could tell that one wouldn't work before I even tried to reboot. The others will take a few minutes and it reads off everything that's being restored, then says complete. But when I reboot I never get past the SGS screen. I've checked the folders in cwm and the backups have all 6 files. I'm confused, if it was the first backup that flashed and non of the others I'd say corrupted sd but since its one in the middle I don't know.

Boot into recovery, restore one of the problematic backups, but wipe cache and dalvik-cache before rebooting the system normally. That might be all that's needed.
 
Yeah its the one from cf root, 4.0.0.2 or something like that.

I've tried a cache and dalvik wipe and it still didn't work.
 
I noticed something earlier when doing a titanium recover. My saved cwm app is 2.00 for some reason. Don't know why as I'm pretty sure I've only ever had 4.0.whatever it was. So tried turning my phone off and then boot into recovery. Then tried another backup. It still didn't boot. Anything to do with that?
