I made a backup using twrp on Nexus Black and copied it to the other nexus white, but when I run twrp on Nexus white and go to restore it doesn't show up. Any help?

did you put it in the right folder?

what i would do is run a backup on twrp, delete the backup it makes, and replace the file with the copied backup.

TWRP puts backups in a folder corresponding to your device's serial number. Two devices, two serial numbers. Two different backup folders under /TWRP.

Thanks, I did this and it worked perfectly. Man I wasted too many hours trying to sort out all the nexus drivers and windows 8 when I could have just done this

Thanks, that makes sense!

This is the prevent damage.

Like flashing a backup with the EFS also checked will ruin your device rendering it wifi only.
Backed up everything but the EFS folder....restored everything.
