i made a nandroid and when i went to use the backup i had a /system error. it was corrupted or something. i installed jokersax atrix cm9 rom after i backedup

exact error is "error while restoring /system!" (cwm)

Far as i know you are SOL with your backup. I always verify after backup cos that's happened to me a couple of times. Had a restore fail even when I verified it. I keep more than one nandroid backup now.

Try restoring again, otherwise have to start from scratch me thinks.

Did you by chance rename any if your Nandroid backups? If the md5 doesn't match the file name it made, it won't work.

I always rename my backups and that never causes any problems.

I no why this happens its because your backup for system is over 290mb I no because I've had the same thing happen to me and if my system backup is over 290mb it won't flash and comes with the same error while restoring /system!"

The way I fixed it was to extract the system.ext3.tar with 7zip and copy apps and framework to xUltimate and deodex it then a moved the deodex apps and framework back to the system.ext3 folder then tar them up with 7zip the the last thing you have to do is download a freeware MD5 program and genarate a MD5 check sum move the system.ext3.tar back to the folder were you toke it from and then edit nandroid.md5 and edit this line

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx system.ext3.tar

With the MD5 you got from the freeware program that you downloaded and save

I tried your method, but I'm stuck at the xUltimate part it keeps telling me "UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION", Man, I'm it's really getting on my nerves and am considering using RSD lite and risking a hard brick
