i dont know anything about adb but i found another method somewhere on XDA. He said to make a nandroid backup then wipe data from recovery then restore only data of the nandroid backup. Will this method work and will all my data be there?

This sounds fishy to me.... all you need to do is enter your Google account info next to emergency call. How can we trust that it is actually your phone ?
