If anyone knowledgable can help clarify how the nandroid back-up works I would greatly appreciate it. Whenever you do a nand back-up does it overwrite the last one you did or does it save them separately? I am assuming you would do them before you install a new rom or add on just in case something screws up.

I think I understand the premis but I just want to be sure so I don't lose everything one day.

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

thanks

the only stupid questions are those unasked. :) Each Nandroid backup is seperate from the last. they will fill up your SD Card quickly if you dont watch them. You can copy that folder to your PC in case you need it for later. I run on Nan + davlik before i flash anything. a new ROM, a keyboard, a theme, the new kernel. better to be safe than to restore to last weeks problems again. Any more questions?? Ask away!
