I would let the restore complete. Hopefully, you made a backup so restore it and you will be ready to go.

I've not used the simple nandroid restore. I'm wondering if it is waiting for you to make another selection. My sense is that as long as you have a backup you can restore so press the power button. I'm thinking that will take you back a screen and you can select the correct option.

Were you able to get back to the backup/restore selection? If so, my sense is the nandroid backup did not activate.

If you want to be safe restore the backup you made prior to starting. Highlight the backup/restore line press camera button. The highlight restore, press camera, select the backup you just made and press camera.

If not, then keep going with the install of the new rom.

I'm going back to my rooted backup, just not sure which items get the " * " next to it. just trying to play it safe.

I use the advanced nandroid so I'm not positive. My sense is that you should check the same that you checked when you made the backup.

Glad it worked. I've not checked any of those selections. Typically, I just let the system do its thing.
