Cannot restore backup in Nurmonjoki (2.2.1)
I made a backup to the SD card before updating to 2.2.1, but the update failed and I had to reset to factory settings. After I updated the phone all over again, it worked all the way to 2.2.1. But now I can't restore my backup, because the Settings UI has a button saying "update your backup" instead of "restore backup" or something similar.
How can I restore my SD card backup? Is there a command-line version?

you could directly access it to salvage your data.
if you're not a nig lìnux command line interface user, 7zip has a nice GUI for handling those.

That, or a button to restore backups, which I thought should be in Settings, but isn't.
