Nandroid Error Codes

[thatguychuck]

I think error 34 is not enough space on the sdcard to complete the tasks.

I also got an error 99 once, but it was when I was monkeying around with a ROM file, so probably was just some sort of fatal error.

So you got error 34 when trying to do a backup?

It wasn't me, there was a guy here:
hey guys, need some help

But yeah, it was during a backup.

Thanks for the info, updated the OP.

i'm pretty sure there's an error code that will not allow you to do a backup or restore if you're below a certain battery level. I recieved the same error numerous times and reconnected my charged and waited a bit and tried again with the exact same file name and it went fine

Ohhh its about time man! I have sent several emails out over the past several weeks trying to aquire status codes meanings but nobody is talking. This was a great idea.

Thanks!

What gives with that. Someone created the error codes so somebody should know what they all stand for. Unless some are just random numbers!

anyways...bump...if you know any, add them to the list

About this nandroid thing...i feel stupid asking this question but I'm stumped. I had foolishly rooted my phone then realizing that I don't know enough to get into all this detailed stuff that I'm not prepared to do, I went back to stock without any problems. Everything is good but I still have the nandroid on my Astro. Since I'm not rooted anymore is there any need for it? Can I delete these files? Thanks in advance.

I am trying to install Simple Stunning and I am getting Error 14. I slid the keyboard shut and this message popped up:

"ERROR: Nandroid Exited with status 14E: No tar archives found"

Maybe the system.tar file is in the wrong directory?

Found this in another thread on error 14:

I had the same issue and error. I noticed that I didnt have to add the .tgz extension to it. Don't change the name regardless if the .tgz extension is missing or not when you look at it through your computer's browser.

The instructions say "File should be named *.rom.tgz Some browsers may try to change the file name ". The browser I used did in fact just show it as a .rom but when I copied it to my sd card it showed as a *.rom.tgz when I looked at it through my phone. Not sure if my computer's browser just wasn't seeing it or what.

In the beginning (when I was getting the error) I added the .tgz extension because I counldn't see it. SO when I copied it to my sd-card it looked like this *.rom.tgz.tgz (a triple barreled extension).

Worth a look anyway. Remember, windows "hides" known file extensions by default,
