Can't restore videos via Kies - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I factory reset my phone yesterday (International version) because of some delays in the menus and loading up of the dialpad.
However, as I tried to restore the backup on the phone, Kies keeps telling me that there's an unexpected error while restoring my videos.
My apps can't be restored as well and I had to download them all again, loosing all my data.
The rest of the backup was ok, but seriously? Why is there a backup if it doesn't work in the first place?

[Q] Kies - Restoring a Partial Backup?

Hi everyone, I recently had problems with my SGS3 and had to factory reset. Before I did the factory reset I did a full backup in Kies, and it completed everything but then hung backing up text messages, the last thing on the list. I had to cancel the backup but I noticed the information it had backed up was still there, so went ahead with the factory reset.
Unfortunately, although the backup data is there (with the exception of text messsages, which I don't really care about), the actual .sbu backup file that Kies needs to restore a backup isn't there, as I'm guessing it's the index of the backup which would have been created if the text message backup hadn't hung. Is there any way to easily restore the backup without this file?
Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give!

Did a factory reset, same problem... Finally restored the CWM backup WhatsApp works now but if i clear data or reinstall i get same problem. So I have time till the next version comes out.

[Q] Error while restoring data CVM 5.5.0.4 - Temasek CM 10.2

Hi all !
I need your help because I'm really desperate.
My phone was working fine but I had some error with Handcent application.
I decided to restore a previous nandroid backup (that I had previously successfully restored) but now I've got an "error while restoring data" after a long time working.
Tried to do 3 wipes (data factory, cache, Dalivk), but same issue.
Tried with some other backups, same issue.
I'm really lost....
Is there any way to get me out of this ? :crying:
My phone is now unusable.
When I run the phone after restoring faultly, it asked me my google account, as if it was the first time I was running the phone, and not all applications are installed.
When I try to install missing applications with Google Play, I've got an error, and no way to restore from Titanium Backup, no error but freezes.
Please HELP !
Flash your firmware using Odin or recovery, if the backup is corrupt then it can't be fixed.
Thanks, but this backup was OK last time I've restored it, and I had the same issue with some other recent backups.
It appears that the size was too big, over 2,5GB.
I've restored from a 2,41GB backup and it has worked.
The mistery is why I was able to restore from this backup one time, and now does not work anymore...
