HTC Eris :: Can I Delete Old Data From SD / How To Use Nandroid?
May 5, 2010
I am on Grdlocks Vanilla ROM (which I love). I have noticed that available space on my SD card has decreased dramatically. I have a couple questions. Can I complete a NANDROID backup at anytime? Or just when I flash a new ROM? How would I use a NANDROID backup if I actually needed one? Can I delete old ones off my SD card? I have two and they are taking up a lot of space. Do I delete the BDS folder when I delete these?

I am a droid user, but my wife has an eris and I am trying to get her phone from one of the 2.1 leaks to the official 2.1 OTA with root.I downloaded a "PlainJane" ROM from XDA which seems to be the 2.1OTA with an OC kernel, which sounded like exactly what I needed. So, I performed a nandroid backup of her phone as it is and then I went into the nandroid restore menu to see what my options were with the Amon recovery image. Turns out there was no "advanced" nandroid restore option like we have on Clockwork and SPRecovery on the Droid, so my original plan of wiping, installing the new ROM, and then restoring data was dashed.So, I attempted to just flash the new ROM on top of the 2.1 leak. This resulted in tons of FC's on boot up. I then rebooted the phone, did a full wipe, then installed the ROM. It then booted up just fine, but without any of her data of course.
That is no good though as I promised her I wouldnt lose her data (again, LOL). So, I then wiped again and proceeded to restore the nandroid backup I did before I started and now the phone is right back to where it was before all of this.OK, having said all of that, I really want to just wipe, install the ROM, then restore the data on top. Is that not possible on the Eris? Is there a different recovery image I should be using that will allow me to do this? I do it on my droid all the time and it makes swapping ROM's a breeze.

When I do a nandroid backup, do I first need to wipe data/dvalik first? I've searched the threads, but no one has mentioned doing a wipe before a nandroid.

Forgive me if this has been answered already, I didn't really know how to search for this... But today I tried to do a Nandroid Backup and when I did it said "error: Run 'nandroid-mobile.sh' via adb!" But I've previously been able to just click Nandroid Backup and it will backup my phone..

I've seen posts about this in other device threads and I just wanted to confirm that for the Evo I can rename and/or delete Nandroid backups? Is it as simple as connecting as a disk drive and renaming them that way through my laptop?

Just got done getting Third Wave the way I like it. Made a backup and am now flashing Skyraider vanilla (Came from Moto Droid) and I am pumped! I will probably miss sense and go back but I love all the options! I do miss being able to just restore data with nandroid backups on droid. Made flashing so easy. I am afraid to try this with the Inc. Anyone do this ever?

I have a question regarding restoring data after flashing to a new ROM (Bugless Beast) via a nandroid backup. I know I have the update.zip option, but that seems to introduce issues for some that I want to avoid.Now, I know I have a few options. I can batch backup apps and data with Titanium Backup, then wipe, install the new build, and then restore via Titanium. Or, I can do a nandroid backup of my phone, wipe, install the new build, and then restore only the data partition of my first backup.My question is, are either of these methods any different from just using the update.zip version of BB? For example, when I upgraded from BB .7.8 to 1.0, I lost root and had to do a full wipe and I just manually reinstalled everything. Will doing the data partition restore or titanium backup restore result in the same issues?

I have installed UD8 for about a week now. But ever since I have flashed some kernels (slayers 1100lv, chevys 1100 lv, p31200) I have not had the stability nor the quickness that the original 800 stock kernel gave.
I made a nandroid backup b4 flashing those roms..so my question is this: Do i have to wipe cache/data before i flash my nandroid backup? Or can i just flash it w/o doing any extra steps?

So I just tried to go back to a previous nandroid backup I had on my phone, specifically CyanogenTazz because I didn't like the current ROM I was on... So I wiped my dalvik cache and did a factory reset wipe and then went to restore and it gave me this error "error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb!" What is the exact command in command prompt to do that? And what caused this error?

I have a question about restoring nandroid backups. I have quite a few ROMs saved as backups, for switching if I want to try something else. I have White Widow 4.4 installed right now, and am apparently stuck with it since when trying to roll back to Aloysius or anything else. When I go to restore a back up, after wiping dalvik/data, I get this error. Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.shrestore' via adb! What the heck are they talking about? I hope this isn't something simple and stupid, but I am out to sea right now with no access to my computer. Please assist! Thanks guys! Also, WW4.4 rules.

If you do a Nandroid backup, then save the file from your SD card... can you use that same file to do a Nandroid Restore on a new replacement Eris? Seems like that should work, but I just want to make sure it's not phone-dependent.

I recently began using a2sd (I was running out of space with the stupid games for my 4-year-old, their not for me....I swear) and just had a question about doing a nandroid in case something happened, or I wanted to change roms or something. Is the nandroid process different for me now? If somebody could please enlighten me that would be great.

due to short storage and the large amount of email I receive I decided to install K9 because it stores mail to the sd card. So I deleted account on the stock Htc mail but the data is still there the all 55 meg of it and I cannot find a way to delete it. I ewent in setting and it does show 55mb but no button to erase data a complete reset is not an option I have copilot installed and i doubt it will reinstall with the google checkout number a second time. so My question is , How do I force the email data to erase.?

I have imported my old contacts from the SIM, synced them with the SE site and have updated all my contacts, clearing out some and editing the names correctly. I have now synced them back to the phone. I would now like to delete everything on my SIM and then copy all my contacts from the phone to the SIM. How do I do this?

Can anyone help explain what this does? I did a small search around the internet, and it came up with just about nothing.My first question is: I turned mobile data off, and yet, during the night, I was charged for data, so something leaked.Personally, I thought if this was because of this particular function. But maybe it was something else.So, I turned it off, but around the forums for other androids people seem to think that syncing doesn't work as well with this disabled.Does anybody know what might have happened? And could this function have been the thing that caused the leak.The leak, was actually for only 50 KB or so, but because I'm on Page Plus, it caused me to go under the required balance to refill of $29.95 and caused my plan to lapse. It's important for me for this not to happen again. Can anyone give any tips?

If you do not root, you could go from 2.0.1 to 2.1 with no wiping of data and cache, it just installs & away you go. Same with 2.1 to 2.2. No wiping of data and cache and all is still there as you left it: apps, settings, preferences, etc. SO, why is it important to do this if you root? What's the difference? And, who said it was important to do? Is there some exact proven logic on why if your rooted you must do this and if not, your somehow fine? That 1 step difference causes a lot of extra work, so I am wondering why this is said to be a must for rooters and non rooters need not do it when they get updates?
