How were you cloning your partition from what to what? Your recovered files are likely corrupt because you haven't copied their entire contents.

You should start by cloning the drive with ddrescue or some other software that can handle and log bad sectors.

Once you get a solid image of the drive, you can then attempt software recoveries with various data recovery programs.

If you are over your head, you might want to consider sending the drive to a data recovery professional. We may be able to assist remotely, depending on the root cause of issues and your technical abilities.
