Hi guys!
I have a big problem: i was on Omega 42.1 and wanted to try paranoid. I know there was being said to update recovery, but well i did not (stupid me). I did a backup and installed para. After a few hours i could not cope with it anymore so i did a new backup and wanted to restore Omega. Cmw restore did not find it because of stupid 0 folder. I installed CMW mangaer from Store, installed newest recovery and there the omega backup was listed. But there came Error while /system when restoring it. Now im on omega again and have newest philz. Still i always get error while restoring... It is strange that in backup of my Omega are not a many files in /backup then in Paranoid backup or the one on fresh omega i did just (see foto).
It is important for me to get back my backup... Can anyone help me??

Try moving backup to external SD card and recovering.
If that does not work. You might have to do a megawipe of your internal storage, (backup everything) cause 4.2.2 roms change the folder structure of your intenal storage.

Thanks for reply. Tried with ex SDcard but still "Error while restoring /system".:(
