[Help!] Nandroid restore WITHOUT using Recovery?

[jason600]

Is it possible to do a nandroid restore through ADB, terminal or anything else?

I've got some serious issues with my milestone, which re-flashing doesn't fix. I'm hoping that a doing a nandroid restore will fix this for me.

I can't access recovery at all at the moment, trying to locks up the phone, making it apparently dead, no logo, no nothing. Pulling the battery for 5 days, gets it going again.

I'm currently using the GOT 2.2 (it's the only one I could actually get to boot) and its rooted with SuperOneClick.

Any and all help greatly appreciated.

Yes, you can use the fastboot utility (in the sdk) to flash individual partitions. Depending on which nandroid version your backup was made with, it should work.

But why bother? Just use rsd to flash you phone back to stock. Test everything out and then rsd the vulnerable recovery again in order to get OR and custom roms.

Otherwise you will be testing and troubleshooting until the cows come home...

Thanks for the info, I'll try that tomorrow.

As the the reason why, I've already tried to flash back to stock through rsd, and reflash the bootloader, and the vulnerable recovery, yet the problem persists.

Thanks again for your help.
