I tried the same thing. For some reason, i dont think you can restore nandroid from the sd card. I think it has to be done through ADB.

It wont mess anything up but your nandroid backup isnt the reason why the root menu is giving that error. I just dont think it is possible to restore nandroid directly from the phone.

Ok weird but i got mine to restore finally. Ill tell you the last thing i did. I entered the bootloader mode by holding volume down + power button. Once there i chose Fastboot by pressing volume up, then i pressed menu. I let the phone reboot and then turned it back off. Held home + power on and then selected the nandroid restore. It worked. Dont know if the fastboot thing helped but you can try.
