Root Nandroid Fail - Help

I tried to go back to my old rom with a nandroid restore and I got this error:

Error: run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb!

Help :(
 
There are two different reasons that come up most often as the cause of that error.

One is simply a battery too low to handle the procedure. Remedy? Charge the battery fully and try again.

The other reason is that the backup is either not on the SD card or has become corrupted and is not seen by the nandroid program.
 
Sometimes it can be a software problem too. I've had custom ROMs on there before that wouldn't play nice unless you broke out adb.

Doing a clean install of the custom rom you're reverting to, which played nice with nandroid backups, and then doing the restore might work too.
 
kinda sorry to bother you guys in the first place, I think I'll stick with this new rom for a bit, it's VR13. And yeah, I think it's most likely my battery was the issue, I had about 20-something percent after a day i spent mostly on the bus. Thanks anyway.
