Maybe I'll give it a go later, I'm restoring back to my original ROM at the moment.
It's taking about 30-40 minutes so far to restore data, is it supposed to take that long?
[update] So I restarted my phone because it was taking too long (dangerous I know) and it booted to my old image (none of the apps installed except CWM and the basic samsung apps).
I loaded CWM and used that to restore my backup and I swear its an older version to the one I get when I press the on button and the volume up key.
Is it even possible to have two different versions like that?
You were restoring a backup after trying out hydrogen right?
If so you're the 3rd person after Mrk and I who had the problem of the restore just stalling after trying that rom.
As for usb not working , if I ever get that I use swiftp of the market and use an ftp client to upload stuff onto the phone providing of course wireless is working .
