[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] micky387:
all work perfectly for me... backup,restore,install ...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Vanto:
No issues @ all, ever !

in fact when I unpacked my GN2 the very first thing I did was root-ed & TWRP-ed it :victory:

ever since I'm still TWRPed and not interested in any other recovery 'coz everything is working flawlessly

Keep up the great work You do :good:

As you know the latest roms do no let change modems and changes the structure of efs. Has anyone tried to backup and then restore the efs from twrp with success?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shoukanju:
yep when I reverted from wanamlite 3.8 to 3.7 I got emergency call only with no imei. A quick efs and modem restore from an old backup solved the issue.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Echelonblue:
thought it was only with de latest DME4 or DMF2 rom source base?

so very other TW or AOSP rom should be ok?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shoukanju:
Wanamlite is tw source based. 3.8 is based on dmf2 and inherits the efs issue.

Backup fail, Error tarring split files!

On my fully encrypted Note 2 LTE (N7105) I cannot backup anymore. Backup fails with an "Error tarring split files!" message. I tried with 2.6.0.0 but get the same error, while 2.5.0.1 works fine.

recovery.log attached.

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Sounds like a ROM issue.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Thanks, now can you do the following command and post the output?

ls -lR /mnt/asec/eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro-1/lib > /sdcard/log.txt

Interesting that I don't have anything in that directory. Also have you tried backing up again?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] frankieGom:
The recovery.log I posted is for two consecutive backups (I did not read the error message at first and throught it was lack of space so I cleanup up a couple backups and tried again). And as I mentioned as well, I also tried with TWRP 2.6.0.0 with the exact same result. I reverted back to 2.5.0.1 which works for the moment, but can go back to 2.6 if you need more traces.

As for the listing you asked, it's empty:

root@android:/ # ls -lR /mnt/asec/eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro-1/lib

ls -lR /mnt/asec/eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro-1/lib

/mnt/asec/eu.chai☺fireamobileodin.pro-1/lib:

root@android:/ # ls -alR /mnt/asec/eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro-1/lib

/mnt/asec/eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro-1/lib:

drwxr-xr-x 2 system system 4096 Jun 23 22:59 .

drwxr-xr-x 4 system system 4096 Jun 23 22:59 ..

root@android:/ #

Could that be a problem with my mobile odin installation? I'm wondering about that "-1" at the end...
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Thanks for helping me troubleshoot. I don't believe it's a problem with android at all, but something with TWRP.

Can you give me the output of

ls -l /external_sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/42f793084d379f11\/2013-07-13--21-26-17//data.ext4.win001
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] frankieGom:
That's not going to be possible, unfortunately. Considering the backups were unusable, I cleaned them up once I had a good one fro mTWRP 2.5.0.1.

I'll re-install 2.6.0.1 and perform another backup, then I'll run the command on that backup and provide also the corresponding recovery.log. Should not be too long.

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:56 AM ----------

OK, I only backed up /data to save some time (but did get the same error).

Here is the output of the command you asked.

~ # ls -l /external_sdcard/TWRP//BACKUPS/42f793084d379f11/2013-07-15--00-59-16//data.ext4.win001

But actually, I found something that could be interesting...

/data partition backup with 2.6.0.1 (fails):

As you can see, my data partition is split in four parts when successfully backed up, yet the second part is the same size in both success and failure cases... But I don't know whether that's significant.

Corresponding recovery.log

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I don't have this phone, but I wouldn't think so. Are you seeing the teamwin logo?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] turilo:
Yes the team logo appears after a while into boot, but booting into the recovery and out seems longer than it should be not sure why exactly
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shamps:
Is there anyway to flash this via odin or otherwise??
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] turilo:
Rename the file to recovery.img and flash via mobile Odin

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
The Note2 takes ages to boot into 'recovery' regardless of what your using, be that CWM, TWRP, MobileODIN or Triangle Away, its just how the phone works.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Reb0rn:
The new one enters twice as fast as 2.3.1.0. Might be something else slowing it down. Maybe I shoul put a youtube record of it.

I have found that with CWM & TWRP was slow to boot to. But it seems to be with the Samsung boot Logo, as once TWRP boot it opens quite quickly.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Might be a slow bootloader checking hardware or something. Hard to say what Samsung is doing in the bootloader.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Ferranza:
downloaded the file from goomanager, renamed as recovery.img and flashed with mobile odin. Note stucks at the first boot screen... did a odin stock firmware flash.... what's my fault?????
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] CRudner:
Maybe a bad download. Download the .tar file from TWRP web site on to a PC, boot phone into download mode and use Odin(PC version) to flash. Or if you can boot to recovery flash via that, just place the new .tar in your extsdcard.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Ferranza:
I solved with stock then root then your recovery. ..

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] shamps:
+1. Same thing happened to me. The phone got stuck. I then flashed cwm from odin and then the phone booted up. My data was saved. :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Yeah, the md5sum version of Odin tars don't seem to work well for me. I am going to reupload all of them without the md5sum attached. I will let you know when you can test them.

Is the zip not flashing right from CWM?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] ttav:

N7105 can use it?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Do you happen to have the log from 2.5.0.1 for comparison?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] frankieGom:
I thought I didn't, and that gave me a reason to go back to 2.5.0.1 ;)

Made a backup for /data only again: recovery.log

Then I noticed that TWRP actually copied recovery.log to the backup directory, which I'm adding for completeness: Saturday's recovery.log

With 2.6.0.1 recovery.log is not copied to the backup directory, probably because the error takes it to a branch that does not handle it, and you may want to correct that...

EDIT:

I was looking through some older backups I had transfered to my PC and found one from last tuesday, made with TWRP 2.5.0.1, that has a 3 part /data archive, and yet does not show part .001 as being 139 byte big. That probably means 2.5.0.1 now shows the same issue with backing my Note 2 while not throwing the error. recovery.log

If this is confirmed, then the question would become "how do I clean up /data?"

So my next step, I guess, is to uninstall mobile odin, check the corresponding directories, test backup, re-install mobile odin and test backup again.

It seems to have worked better this time.

This is the recovery.log backing up with MO reinstalled.

One more thing...

I did two backups for /data. One with MO uninstalled, one with it reinstalled. The first one, I disabled compression thinking it would speed up backup but it seems transfer time is the real hog there. The backup took 2819s for about 3GB data, while the next one, compressed, took just 729s for 1.85GB and I have to say the reduction in file size (-32%) does not explain the reduction in backup time (74%). Maybe something's not fully optimized?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Less to write means less time hitting slower io. Memory is a lot faster and since it's being compressed in memory, it's actually faster.

So everything is good just from reinstalling Mobile Odin? What a weird thing.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] frankieGom:
I agree to that.Yet, I can't totally reconcile the numbers I'm seeing. Processing the backup proper should be about the same in both cases, compressing in memory should incur a small hit on performance, and transferring 2/3 the data should take 2/3 the time.

Yet, I see a 300% improvement (1/4 the time) in total backup speed when compressing compared to no compression. It just does not make sense!

It's no big deal, though since it's more efficient to compress storage wise, which is what really matters.

That's what it seems. Maybe a corrupted directory structure and some more stringent file checks in 2.6 explains the difference with 2.5?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] bigbiff:
I haven't done extensive analysis, but my guess is the buffering of pigz is efficiently writing to the sdcard/emmc in bigger blocks where uncompressed writes the files right away.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] frankieGom:
Good enough an explanation for me, but Wow! What a difference!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] wowrlz123:
Is the recovery patched with SDS fix?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] DirtyHarrx:
