They are listed by date but if you have multiple backups its sometimes hard to remember witch is witch but if you had the option to rename them before the backups was mad the Mds. would match and the backup would work.

The "nandroid.md5" file that accompanies the backup .img files only lists the filenames and MD5 hashes. There are no paths to the image files included in the MD5 file.

So if you just rename the parent folder (not the individual image files) then the restore should still work... no?

This works fine (tested). I would not put spaces in whatever name you rename it to. I would also recommend keeping the name relatively short (there are string limits). But renaming to "Backup1" for example works fine.

If you flashed cwm through rom manager i believe that is a known issue. I am using romracer's and don't have that option missing.

I installed CWM as per the Switks instructions in the Noob guide.
The version of CWM is 4.0.1.5
And I didn't delete anything. Can I do it now?

Something is missing in your installation...

When I choose "Install zip fron sd card" only appear 4 options:
- choose zip from sdcard
- apply /sdcard/update.zip
- toggle signature verification
- toggle script asserts

But no the option you say

I just checked mine (latest version) and when I select the "Install zip" option it gives me two choices, internal or external card.

The problem is that now I don't find the file to delete, in System/etc.

You probably just update the ROM Manager version over RomRacer's version... as long as that file isn't there, just re-flash RomRacers version again, like you did before.

or

You are attempting to flash RomRacers version on top of ROM Mangers version, in which case, you have to put the flashable file on the internal sd, as ROM Manager version of CWM doesn't support ext. sd

Regardless, you need to put RomRacers flashable .zip on the internal sd and flash it from there. After that you should have ext. sd support.

    This is a modified CWM-based recovery for the Motorola Atrix 4G. It is based on my own custom code forked from the CyanogenMod team's recovery. The major changes I have made include full support for dual SD cards, support for webtop partitions (SD card and internal) and changes to Nandroid backup/restore for this phone's additional partitions.

    Some highlights include:
    • Dual SD card support
    • ADB support
    • USB Mass Storage support
    • Nandroid additions/changes
    • ext3/4 formatting
    • Unified kernel for international users
    • Probably others

    This recovery is only for UNLOCKED devices. It is intended to be flashed directly to the recovery partition. Additionally, I have an AT&T phone so that is the kernel I am using. I doubt the memory issue would matter in recovery mode but testing from UNLOCKED international users would be appreciated. UPDATE: Initial indications are it works fine on UNLOCKED international phones. Versions for different tegraparts have also been compiled. UPDATE 2: Unified kernel patch has been applied. Choose whatever color you prefer regardless of phone version!

    UNLOCKED users can flash this recovery using:
    Code: 
    moto-fastboot devices

moto-fastboot erase recovery

moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery-atrix5.img

    Example from my phone:
    Code: 
    $ moto-fastboot devices
TA20700KXH      fastboot

$ moto-fastboot erase recovery
            erasing 'recovery'... OKAY [  0.741s]

$ moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
  sending 'recovery' (4780 KB)... OKAY [  0.490s]
            writing 'recovery'... OKAY [  0.544s]

    This is posted in a DEVELOPER forum and is being released to help further the development of Android for the Motorola Atrix 4G. I have personally tested this on my phone but YOU assume full responsibility for any damage incurred to YOUR phone!

    Original ROM Manager installable zip thanks to SolidHelix. You must still be UNLOCKED to use them.

    Source is here.

    A few notes:
    • The capacitive buttons can be used to navigate as well. Back is back, search is select. Menu and home are up and down.
    • The "osh" partition is webtop. It is the largest by far and will take some time to backup. Nandroid is not frozen!
    • The "sd-ext" partition is an ext3/4 partition on your external SD card. Veterans will know this as apps2sd and data2sd from other phones. The only use I'm aware of on our phone currently is Sogarth's webtop2sd.

    Thanks to:
    • Koush and the CM team for CWM
    • Everyone who has made unlocking the Atrix possible

    • Initial release

    Screenshots
    Thanks to DarkSim2o9 for the following screenshots:

    Known Issues
    • sd-ext (webtop2sd) is inadvertently wiped on "Wipe data/factory reset". Next version will make this optional. Fixed in -atrix2.

    Miscellaneous
    If you'd like ROM Manager to see this recovery as "official" you can try XCellPhoneSalesRep's suggestion posted here.
    Alternately, you can try dcarpenter85's suggestion here.
    For issues with recovery not sticking or crashing, see here:
    Thanks to mrinehart93 for pointing this out.

    The system runs /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on boot with the stock rom. On boot it checks the recovery partition for some update and with CWM installed decides to reflash the stock recovery over it. Rename or delete the file and the CWM should stick.

    Sorry for the slow updates last couple of weeks guys; I got married on Saturday! I'd hoped to have the next version out before then but just didn't get to it. I should have something out later this week though or next week at the latest :) This will include things like "/emmc" for internal SD (not really exposed too much in recovery, but aligns with CM7.1, etc) as well as an updated kernel (the issue that affects bamastang and one other user).

    What worked for me coming from tenfar's " [Unlocked Only][Release]CWM Recovery Mod for Atrix 4G 2011-06-30 updated again!" RECOVERY :

    1) Download "CWM-recovery-atrix1.zip" from bottom of 1st post OR from HERE and place on root of Ext SD Card.

    2) Rom Manager ~~> Flash ClockworkMod Recovery (Flashes latest clockwork of stock 4.0.1.4 for Atrix)

    3) Rom Manager ~~> Install ROM from SD Card ~~> Chose CWM-recovery-atrix1.zip you downloaded and placed on Ext SD Card from step 1.

    4) Rom Manager ~~> Reboot into Recovery ~~> Top of Recovery should read CWM-based Recovery v4.0.1.4-atrix1

    i feel that it cant get any easier then this...

    romracer if you feel the need to use these instructions in post 1, please feel free.
