You're right I believe. A backup made on philz recovery Will not restore on Twrp,they are using different methods of making the backup so they will not restore back correctly using the opposite recovery

Thanks that is what i thought just needed confirmation. what about different versions #s of a recovery like twrp 2.7.0.0 and twrp 2.5.0.0 (just an example) or whichever versions being used? can u restore from one to the other if that were the case? thanks

I wouldn't try it, because what 2.7.0.7 has 2.7.0.0 might not sometimes it can be crucial updates that change compression, or partitioning. Safest to use whatever you used to backup to restore. Sometimes it will work but you will have to test at your own risk.

I've had some problems installing the zip. At first it would not install saying a custom folder needed to be created. I just tried again to install V2 and I got the Welcome screen, press Next to continue. Touching the next on the bottom right does nothing.

I have PhilZ Touch 5.26.6 CWM v6.0.4.8 recovery installed which says No CWM /aroma fm/aroma fm.zip in storage paths.

Hmm I forgot about this tool
And no its not your phone the aroma I used at this time was known to make the phone do that I will just have to pull cpt's fixed aroma

Also next time don't quote the whole op others may not be as nice as I am about the subject and would get very butt hurt about it [emoji6]
