Ok, I've done everything. I've tried all the different methods, I've read all the threads, I've factory reset several times, and NOTHING. I need help!!!

Damn. I really wanted to avoid another factory reset. If I go through with it, do I have to click on the Erase All Internal Data option? How about the SD card? Do I click on one of them, both, or neither?

These have gotten pretty painless lately by following these simple steps: 1. Make sure Backup and Restore are checked in the Privacy setting. 2. When going through the setup after the reset, turn on wifi as soon as you can. 3. After you have entered you Gmail account info, you will be presented with a screen that has two check boxes. Basically they are "Do you want Google to backup and restore this phone. Make sure you check both of those. You apps will then automatically reinstall (paid and free). Set the phone aside for a minute or two and let the apps download and install. 3. Use an app such as titanium backup to restore data only to select apps such as Tapatalk and you will not have to re-enter all your login information. I do this for 3-4 apps (Tapatalk, SPB Shell, etc.).

I've been flashing new roms/updates about once per day lately and I can be up and running with all my apps and settings back in place in less than 20 minutes. It's pretty painless now.

Yes, you need to erase all data. This will not touch your sdcard or or your sdcard-ext. It will erase everything you've added in the way of settings and apps. Your phone will be just like it came from the factory.

You have got to tell us what is going wrong. At what point does the restore fail? What error messages do you get. There are clues that left in the wake of a failure like you are experiencing. We need more info.

Ok, I fixed it. Thanks y'all!!! I had to factory reset (which, btw, I still had to reinstall the majority of my apps because Backup Pro did not work for me), then I cleaned and reinstalled the drivers, rebooted both the phone and laptop, and ran the one click exploit and it worked. Whew!!! And now onto CHEESECAKE!!!!!
