I try to restore a backup to another device.
It's strange. When I try to restore from this backup, using the command backup.sh, I have to select the same options as when I do a backup: tar or adb, hooks yes/no; I also have to select an erase method for the temporary files, but they have already been wiped when I made the backup. When I eventually select RESTORE and select the backup file, I get the message: file doesn´t exist. But it does. What am I doing wrong?

Should the first question when giving the command backup.sh not be: what to do: backup or restore?

With the phone I created the backup for, I get the same output when restoring: file or directory doesn´t exist.

You need to remove the apostrophes (') as well as any spaces from the file path, so instead of e.g. '/home/myuser/backup.7z' it should be /home/myuser/backup.7z. If that doesn't work, try placing the backup file in a directory with no spaces.
