Re: App2SD apps on MicroSD missing after restore with ClockworkMod recovery

Like was said before if I was you I would boot phone up and go to rom manager and flash alternate recovery from CWM to RA and then do the stuff above.
Alright, so I think I'm halfway there. I copied the contents of my MicroSD to my PC, reformatted my MicroSD to ext3, and then copied the contents of my MicroSD back to the newly formatted card.

Here's is where I'm lost again. I'm not exactly sure how to do a manual restore using tar (not even sure what tar means).

Any continued assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
