this is my second note 3. first one rooted it tripped knox warrenty, installed philz cwm anf flashed kitkat 4.4.2. everything was great for a few weeks till I done 2 nandroid backups. I tried to move them to pc which was not a problem, but when I came to delete them from internal memory they would not delete I believe due to the write protection enable. so long story short got phone replaced under warrenty even with knox tripped (lomg story). I just flashed kitkt 4.4 and rooted my device and flashed philz cwm, I came to copy my last nandroid backup to internal memory to do a restore and it wont let me. it says this device is no longer connected. but I can go into any other directory and copy it. can somebody plz help????????????

If I were you I would do a nandroid backup onto an external SD, that way in case I can't boot and push files into the phone's internal storage, I will always be able to restore from extSD.

Never restore Device A's Nandroid on Device B. It will brick.

You can use a Play Store app to extract parts of a Nandroid to your device without bricking.

    Your asking for trouble!
    Your backup is for a different phone,the hardware will have different id's etc.

    In short,don't even bother.
