[Acer Iconia A500] Rogue Leader:
I've been a firefighter for almost 14 years now. The second fire I ever went to was started by a faulty power strip at someone's computer desk. Due to the damage of the fire it was unknown whether the strip or something plugged into it was the cause of the short that started it. The house was burned to matchsticks, the family dog died but saved the family (he was in the room where the fire started in a cage and barked like crazy which woke up the family and they were able to get out). In the ensuing 14 years I've seen this scenario happen a handful of times that resulted in fires, and even more times that luckily only caused minor damage. I've also worked with electronics my whole life, I install home theater systems on the side and spent many years installing Car Audio equipment.

No offense to the OP but the initial post here is just about the stupidest thing you can do. All you need is to pull on it once, have those wires come a bit loose and touch and it will short out the power supply. The result of that could be as simple as blowing a breaker (no big deal) or as bad as a fire. Anyone saying it can't happen, its only DC, I've been there - multiple times, it can and it will.

The only way to do this is at a minimum use butt connectors and a lot of tape, preferably though soldier and shrink tube since connectors can sometimes increase the resistance in the wire. And even if I did soldier it, I would still wrap that thing in as much tape as possible to be sure.

Attitudes like the ones presented here are what causes fires, electricity whether its AC or DC is no joke. People like you keep people like me in business, that said I'd prefer to sit in the firehouse then have to come carry you out because you didn't want to do it the right way the first time.

I have a htc trophy, and i unlocked him with a code number. But i can't install xap files.

I need to do anything else to install xap files?

WP version: 7.10.8107.79

Bootloader: 5.12.2250.1

Thanks
[Trophy General] TheXev:
the Unlock code is simply for unlocking your simcard slot to accept a different carriers sim card.

If you want to install xap files, you need to install HSPL and flash a custom rom.
[Trophy General] Dark_Angel_9:
Thanks.

Can i flash with this specifications?

Rom: 5.12.168.01

Radio: 5.69.09.05a

Version: 7.10.8107

I buy the phone with this version and i do not have any backup.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Few days ago I faced MD5 mismatch error while restoring my backup after messed with my phone. But due to this error I couldn't restore backup. I asked many people but people said that I should now flash sock firmware which was really a headache for me.

Anyway I searched alot on xda & I found very easy solution.

It don't require pc or adb shell etc. It only requires rooted phone with Terminal Emulator app :)

STEP 1: Open Terminal Emulator

Step 2: Use the following commands. (DON'T FORGET TO REPLACE "2012-01-01.10.09.36" WITH YOUR OWN BACKUP FOLDER NAME WHICH WILL BE PRESENT IN folder /clockworkmod/backup/)

su
#mount -o remount rw /sdcard
#cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-01-01.10.09.36
#rm nandroid.md5
#md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

STEP 3: (This will create a new "nandroid.md5" file without ANY "md5 mismatch" errors :D)

Reboot your phone and enter Recovery mode & then restore.

I hope it will help you in future :)

ENJOY...:D

IMP NOTE :- Many times people change backup folder name which can create this error. So be sure that you have not changed your backup folder name & also be sure that there is no space in backup folder path.

If you do this you can't be sure that your backup isn't broken. md5 needs exactly for checking this. Yes, you cheated the check system, but are you sure that your backup integrity is fine?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] silentvisitor:
This problem is mainly due to folder name change. If you don't change folder name you shouldn't be having this problem.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Ya but sometimes we have to face this problem even if we dont change folder name like how it was happened in my case few days ago.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Taraen:
Well, I think this is no hint you should use. When creating a new backup md5 hashsums are calculated for each file. If you now want to restore it these hashsums are calculated again and compared to the previous ones. Only if the data is the same as before , in other words your backup hasn't been damaged, the checksums match. You may have had some luck that the error happened in a file that does not get used very often but in general you do not want to do that, just imagine your kernel backup is broken!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] imakul8:
Thanks, worked just fine for me.:D:good:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
The error is not only because of changing the name of folder, as vishal says md5 mismatch can occur.

I even encountered the following problem with nandroid backup.

stock gb,xxkpu nandroid not compatible over cm9 or miui.

Or miui/CNET not compatible over stock rooted ROM.

I'm not sure of the reason why this error occurs while reporting the nandroid backup, but according to my limited knowledge of Android, I suppose either ext4 partition is not compatible over rfs of stock and vice versa or, out might be a kernel clash.

To be true, I didn't even try to search much about the issue as I'm mostly free and take the pain of customizing three new firmware as power my preference and reinstalling the app :o
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
If anyone is sure of the error and it's solution, the answer is most welcome.

P.s. while restoring out doesn't say md5 mismatch (I've also come across this though), the error I stated cannot restore the boot image atty the first place.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
@ Iambalvindar

You are right bro. There can be number of reasons about this md5 mismatch error. Actually the solutuion which I have provided is just an option to correct error :) If error is due to other reason such corrupted backup then obviously the solution given in my thread will not be applicable.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
The first two commands ('su' and 'mount') are not necessary because:

You don't need root permissions to edit stuff in /sdcard

/sdcard is always mounted as RW (that's what the second command does.)

EDIT:

I've just remembered that if you don't have busybox installed you don't have the 'md5sum' command avaible for the user.

However our CF-root kernels come with an inbuilt busybox, but it can't be used as normal user, because if I remember correctly all the symlinks are in /sbin, where the user has no access. So, probably, you need to do this as root (= type the 'su' command as in the OP).

Anyway, nandroid.md5 is the last thing made during a backup. That means if you don't have enough space for the backup and it stops, this file is not created. So, when you go to restore that backup, you have the mismatch error. In this case, if you create the nandroid.md5 as vishal wrote, you'll have a usable and damaged backup. So, before doing this, check if nandroid.md5 is there or, when you run "rm nandroid.md5", make sure the output is not "No such file or directory", because it means that most likely the backup is not complete.

All of these to say: be careful and do this if necessary (unless you know what you are doing of course).

A suggestion:

In this situation you can do an "advanced restore" and restore only /data and /datadata if you are using the same ROM you used for the backup (maybe a slightly different ROM is good too). The only things not restored are the mods you applied and system apps, but for the mods, simply reflash them, for the system apps, well, they are always the same. All the apps installed through the market are in /data.

Maybe this will cause bootloops, but in this case you can simply reboot in recovery and do a data wipe/factory reset. This will let you boot without the need of a reflash. You have of course to reinstal all your apps etc, but it's better than starting from scratch.

Or, even better, do a backup before the restore of /data and /datadata, so that in case of problems you can always restore everything.

EDIT 2:

I think you can do this even when you change ROM, as long as it's a stock ROM. That's because stock ROMs are intended to be flashed over another stock ROM and they are made in a way that you don't need to wipe your /data partition. When you use kies to upgrade, you don't loose anything. Restoring /data and /datadata should have the same effect (it's better to wipe the dalvik-cache after this).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
@vishal: I'm not referring to corrupted backups. Sometimes later, even working backups fail to be restored after some ROM and kernel change.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Ya its because different kernels have different cwm version & also different kernels creat different md5 code as per backup.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
I think you can do it, nandroid backups are the exact copy of the ROM you are running (the radio is not backed up).

The problem is that maybe you did a backup of Gingerbread using amit's CWM. His CWM is able to backup the kernel (normalboot.img), but he disabled this feature because he couldn't test it, so he thought it would be safer not to enable it. UC team however enabled it (that's what I can see from their recovery.fstab).

If you used amit's recovery to backup the ROM, when you restored it from CyanogenMod you didn't restore the kernel. So, when you turned the phone on, you tried to boot a stock ROM with a CM kernel.

Maybe if you flash a stock kernel after the restore with odin it will boot.

And if you tried to restore a CM backup (so with the kernel backed up) with amit's kernel, you didn't restore the kernel amit's recovery ignores it, so you tried to boot CM with a stock ROM kernel.

Maybe backups made from different CWM versions are not compatible, but I think Koush is trying to avoid this, but I'm not sure.

Another problem could be that CM is not yet finished and the continous changes in recovery cause new bugs that could affect the way backups are done (it recently happened).

Maybe I'm saying stupid things, but that's what I know. I'm not so interested in backups and restores, I rarely use them, so I've never tried to study well enough how they work etc. Correct me if I wrote something stupid.

Anyway, I'm sure that the md5sum error has nothing to do with the kernel you used to make the backup.

Every file has a unique md5 hash, it doesn't matter if you calculate it with your phone, with your computer or with your fridge (if you can :D), the result is always the same. What CWM does before starting a restore is to re-calculate the md5 of each file inside /sdcard/clockwrockmod/backup/XXXXX/ and to compare them with the ones stored in /sdcard/clockwrockmod/backup/XXXXX/nandroid.md5 when you made the backup (open this file with a text editor and see). If they are all equal, it means the backup is not corrupted, so it's safe to start the restore.

I think you could even restore a backup of another phone (maybe there are some other check here and there to prevent this), but of course don't try it :p.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Cool, thx for the info. Nv knew the difference between the kernels
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] iAmBalvinder:
Yeah, most probably be that was the issue... Kernels needed to be changed.

Thanks :D

And I already saw that my backup was not corrupted with md5 check.

Moreover, I also don't use nandroid much, I always configure new ROM I try, from the scratch. :p:D

It's just that I needed to use USB storage urgently, which sadly doesn't work on any ics based ROM. So tried to restore the backup. Alas !

Had to flash again from scratch to get to stock gb, as I didn't have any gb.zip in sd card or computer.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] huseniezzaz:
i am not able to restore my backup due to mismatch md5

i was using another bootloader and another cwm
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
Vishal, can you summarize every thing and update first post.

According to my understanding,

1. Do not change backup folder name.

2. Do not restore backup using different recovery than the one used, i.e. Use gb recovery to restore gb Rom, cm7 recovery to restore cm7 Rom and so on.

These are the main cause of md5 error, else better to assume the backup is corrupted.

Recalclating the md5 and restoring could have adverse effect on the system. :cool:

MD5 Mismatch: File Name CANNOT have spaces

Hey Guys,

I ran into the MD5 Mismatch issue today trying to revert back from CM10 to Touchwiz after my second attempt at flashing my ROM. The MD5 mismatch popped up to which I started sweating bullets over. The final fix for me wasn't that I switched the folder name of the backup I made but rather that I had inserted spaces in the name. I was able to reboot with CM10, find the backup fold in Clockworkrecovery, eliminate the spaces in the folder name, and I was able to reboot in Touchwiz without any issue.

What I learned: It's probably best not to change the date stamp folder name of your backup for reasons far beyond me. Maybe someone can explain. However, In this case it did seem like spaces in the folder name were the problem.

someones suggestion in another thread of just putting a blank md5 in the folder didn't do squat even though people said it helped them
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheStrokerace:
MD5 was created to check file integrity of a file, encrypt data and passwords. This way if the file became corrupt or something was changed in a file, it would change the MD5. . In the day, MD5 was secure and useful. Today, it worthless. Anyone who uses it has no clue what they are doing and do it because they think they are l33t. MD5 checksums are so easy bypassed these days. So coders should stop using it on in their programs and Apps.

Just my noob 2 cents. When i faced this problem, i just deleted the md5 file, so you force nandroid to skip the check, ezpz :D cheers
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] HarlemOrange:
Thanks for the guide, I am facing this problem now. When I try the following command:

Im not on a i9003, but I'm sure this problem is not device dependant.

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] yourshubhamkansal:
simplest and most easiest way is to copy the backup to PC , edit the nandroid.md5 using notepad++ and delete all the text and then save it. Now use the backup.

By using a blank nandroid.md5 we can skip md5 matching step.
