Hello all,

I have done a backup with CWM, then I made some changes (installing apps, removing apps etc.) on the GT - which I did not like, so I wanted to revert to the state I had when I did the CWM backup.

I selected CWM restore, and the restore went through.

But after the restore completed my GT did not work any more - it did not boot any more, battery charging did not show etc.


I was able to fix the unit with reflashing via Odin: so all is good.

But I would like to find out what has happened. Why did my GT get corrupted? How is CWM backup / restore properly done?

Please advise....
