Default How can you save your current ROM?

hello is there away to do the title of this thread?

I have a unbranded ROM but it's loaded with my operators Data settings, and I'll be loathed to type them in if I decide to return to the stock ROM, so is there a way to save your current ROM incase it goes wrong, or your flash and decide to go back?

TIA Luke.

Nandroid backup - which you will certainly be doing before flashing anything new. Won't you?


Thinks - you are rooted aren't you?

Search for r6-desire-root.zip, follow first link in google.
If it fails try it on another os (or pc), it will always succeed

ROM Manager backup. Copy it to your PC for safe keeping.

Does anyone know if you can back up your ROM without root, before gaining root access?

Simple answer is no, it can't be done. You need root to backup your rom.

Actually, you don't need root to do a nandroid backup. Just a custom recovery.
