Just wondering if I can rename my NAND backups? Would make it a little easier when playing around with 2 different ROMS.
Yeah you can through rom manager anyway.
Open up Rom Manger and scroll through until you see Manage and restore backups
Next press on the backup you would like to rename.
A context menu will pop up and you click rename. Wallah!
right now I only have the free version and I can do it just fine.
If you change the name of the nandroid back up, there's a good chance your md5 sum won't match. Your best bet is to name it as your making the back up through clocwork. Still may give you issues.
I just rename the backup using a file manager like Astro, seems to work fine for me...
Just wait till your MD5 sum gets screwed then you'll be crying about stuff...
Trust us use Rom Manager... From what i've been reading it automatically changes MD5 sum...
Its safer and its easy

Im pretty sure thats on Premium only... but its worth the money in my opinion
So let me make sure I'm explaining myself correctly. What I'm doing is navigating to /sdcard/nandroid/HT05AHL015XX/ and after a nandroid backup a folder is placed in that directory named "BT34983-0911" or something along those lines. I'm essentially renaming that folder but not touching any of the contents inside. This can cause instability in the backup? I've restored from them countless number of times after renaming this folder. Here is a screenshot:
Yeah I believe you about it happening to you. One question though, I use amon ra 1.8 as my recovery and don't want to change to clockwork. Do I need to use clockwork to use rom manager?
And one more question, considering I've already renamed my other backups and have restored off them fine, I'm assuming those md5 sums haven't changed and I can leave them alone/continue to use them?
