How To Perform a Successful Nandroid Back Up and Restore Using Mobile Odin And Agats FK23 CWM repack on these Jelly Bean Leaks
I've had a LOT of confusion as to how to do this and several people saying they will wait to get in on this jelly goodness cause they're nervous about a backup. I've done this SUCCESSFULLY over 50 times and no problems yet... not a single bootloop and kept all my mods. So, This is how you can perform a successful nandroid back up and restore to your Jelly Bean Rom.. This is ONLY for Jelly Bean and Not if you are running ICS or GB.
To Create a Nandroid Back Up on Jelly Bean
1.WHILE YOU ARE RUNNING JELLY BEAN... Mobile odin Agat's Repacked FK23 kernel to obtain a JB recovery.
2.Select Back UP/ and Restore. - Back up
3. Let it run the back up and reboot. Rename to something that lets you know that its a JB back-up.

To Create a Restore Back to Your JellyBean Setup
After making a Jelly Bean Backup, Lets say you want to go back to ICS or you want to flash another Jelly Bean Leak, But you're just LOVIN the way you have it set up on this JB Black Bean and kinda leary about flashing something else without a back up of this sweet set up? Here's how to do it...

1. Get to a ICS or GB kernel with either Mobile Odin, PC Odin, or CWM zip.
2. After Wiping everthing, flash your ROM or flash your ICS restore point. Reboot phone as normal. Run your Rom..now back to JELLYBEAN.
3. WHILE YOU ARE RUNNING ICS...TO RESTORE..
a)boot into ICS recovery
b) wipe cashe, dalvik cashe, Factory Data Reset..
c) flash Either STOCK JB or THEMED .. JB Black Bean with Jelly ROM
d) when ROM finishes flashing reboot.. but no need to sign into Google.. we're about to do a restore.. Just click No to all of Google's questions, give them your name.. and hit finish. Now go to your "my files" in the app drawer, select ext. sd... navigate to where you have the Mobile Odin and Mobile Odin Flash kernel and install both. Then go back to the app drawer and open Mobile Odin. Select Kernel and navigate to where you have Agats FK23.tar or zip and flash it with Mobile Odin. reboot.
e)boot into JB recovery. go to backup/restore. -restore - select your JB restore point - yes ... let the restore run.... reboot.
You Just did a Successful Back Up and Restore on Jelly Bean without losing recovery ... for very long. Now if you feel the need but its not necessary, you can re flash the STOCK JB FK23 kernel.

While you are on JB..
Make SURE you are on the same CWM Agat FK23 JB kernel that you made the BackUp and do your Restore.

Hey Jay, can this reject get a sticky one time?? :) :)

So the only one that would work is agats fk23 repack if running jellybean? So that's why it wouldn't work been doing it with el26 and fi27.

Thats correct. Just lik on a AOSP/CM kernel and ROM if you were to make a back up on CM for example you would restore with that same CM kernel. The same is true with JB to /ICS/GB. You have to be running a JB kernel. Since Agats Kernel is the only repack we have... even tho the JB kernel may have a couple issues being repacked, its the same recovery. We've all trusted this same recovery on ICS for some time now and its a good recovery on JB too

It seems to me I tried this once the way you described and it didn't work for me. I may have to revisit this since you have done it a lot Tim. Thanks!

You must flash the jb rom "fresh" i.e. wipe cashe.. dalvick.. factory data reset by either odin oc (wipes everything) or from a gb/ics kernel prior to mobile odining agats repack fk23 and performing the restore.

No no no.. odin OC the fk23 jb rom or fresh install the JB rom u want i.e. wipe cashe.. dalvik..and factorydata reset FROM a gb or ics cwm KERNEL.. ( basically the jelly bean rom needs a fresh install) then after you install jb fresh.. mobile odin agats fk23 repack kernel and perform the restore. You gotta be on jb with the jb repack to restore.

Try using a repack that isn't a JB kernel.. like GB EL26 stock CWM. JB repacks aren't playing well at the moment.

Naw that especially won't work with jb. It has to be a jb repack running jb. If you have an error and you are running a JB repack on JB, make sure that you
A) have a mounted sd card preferably external
B) enough memory on the sd to do the back up. I would keep 2gb at least. JB is much bigger than ics or gb.
B) the repack kernel is JB. :)

If it still gives you the error try rebooting back into JB recovery while running JB and try the backup again. Lemme know if you're v still having issues. I just did a back up and restore to and from ics yesterday.

I've been backing up and restoring JB using GB EL26 stock repack with no issues. After restoring my JB setup, I flash stock JB kernel and all is well. I've had JB kernel repacks give error on backup as well as restore.
