Root Possible fix for nandroid backup to enable restore

[bkttk2]

There have been comments in the fourms of users having issues when trying to restore a backup.

I came across a possible solution. I have not tried this so I cannot comment on how it works with the Reverb. Hopefully this link will assit with any nandroid restore issues.

Thanks for trying. Sorry it didn't work. I had not tried it yet but was hoping it would help with restore issues people are having.

There's another method will it work yes but its more like a emergency thing. Go download Es File Manager first, then enable root function, then delete you're android secure folder in the sd card or phone. Has to be right where youre back up folder is or the trick wont work, it seems to be a writting error with no way to reread the first write of md5, almost like a corrupted download or a bad online music playlist trying to read the songs youve already downloaded to the phone. but back ups can be fixed a lil easier luckily, next reboot into recovery, restore the back up again. Its a old method not many know about. If youre reading this then you now know how to fix a broken Md5 mismatch to restore a back up, only use this if you no other choice. After you restore it boot up the phone, let the phone relax a few a mins then reboot back into recovery, make a new back up. Make sure to delete the bad back up so you dont get stuck again.
