I did a backup in nandroid. It said no sufficient space in Sd card, external sd not found and then backup completed, generating md5. later I found 6 files in backup folder in internal sd card. Again I did a nandroid backup, this time backup to internal sd card. same messages. Later I found the backup (6 files)in external sd card. both cards got more than 8gb. Now my question is whether these back up are reliable. In case of emergency can I restore this backup?

My backup files is 1.2 Gig. I dont think you had a complete backup. If you are running on ics dont use nandroid, only use nandroid if you are on safe kernel, but still i dont use nandroid myself even on safe kernel. Do it at your own risk.:D

I wonder what alternatives are available? All I could find is The Infuse Toolkit. Although I have no idea whether is any good or how do you install it and use it :silly:
