Hello,

I having been having some major problems the last 2 weeks with any and all backups i create of my phone. I have tried to make backups of various Roms using both Rom Manager and also directly by flashing into recovery (CWM touch). Each time the backup is successfully made, but then when i try to flash the backup i get errors saying "file not found". I lost my stock rooted backup, a backup of CM10, a backup of Liquid Smooth, and a backup of JellyBam. Does anyone have any idea why my backups don't seem to work? This is incredibly frustrating as I lose all of data and have no security blanket should something go wrong. Every time i flash a new Rom i wipe Dalvik, Cache, and factory reset/wipe.

Anyone have any idea what's going on with the backups?:(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] psycho2k9:
what versions of android have you been flashing and are you sure your on the latest recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Something Creative:
Thanks for the reply. believe liquid smooth was version 4.2 and the jellbam was 4.1.2. My stock was either 4.1.1 or 4.1.2, whichever the last update went to. As far as CWM, I am on 6.0.2.3.

Not sure if this is relevant in all this, but my Titanium Backup wasn't working on it's own either when I flashed any new Rom. It would not see any backups and I would have to go into the Preferences and scan for the folder that had backups in it as it did not automatically detect backups in whatever folder it defaults to. This is also a recent development.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jackryan57:
I started several threads on this very issue....my backups also are not working - "file not found" You aren't alone, once more people start experiencing this I'm sure we will see an answer
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Something Creative:
I've tried searching and nothing relevant came up. Do you also have several folders that appear the same when you reboot into recovery? For example, I have a folder titled "0" that popped up around when the issue started. I have a CWM folder as a subfolder under "0" that appears to be identical to the CWM folder that is not in a subfolder. That's why i brought up the issue i am having with titanium backup, wondering if that has anything to do with anything.

I've tried flashing the backups from both the subfolder and the non-subfolder, and nothing seems to work. The only thing i can successfully do is do a complete wipe and reset and flash a new Rom from scratch off the zip.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] psycho2k9:
If your flashing anything 4.2 related its highly recommended that you use twrp as your recovery because of how the files get condensed into that "0" folder.. Your probably going to have to hunt down your backups I'm sure they are somewhere in that 0 folder
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Something Creative:
I thought it might have to do with the folder issue, but i have tried flashing from the CWM, backup, and various other folders in both the "0" subfolder and the main folder. In both cases i get an error that say's file not found. That said, do you really think twrp would make a difference? I'm pretty new to android, so i'm not really familiar with it beyond knowing it's a recovery like cwm. I'd be willing to try it out if it wont jack up the little amount of cwm i do actually know and am familiar with. At least now i can flash a new Rom and start over with a titanium backup of files if shizz hits the fan.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] psycho2k9:
The only thing I can think of is to copy and paste the clockworkmod folder from the 0 folder to the root folder and try the restore process from the root folder instead of the 0 sub folder. If that doesn't work I dunno bro :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Something Creative:
I'll give it a shot even though I've tried loading from the folder directly already.

How would i move it? I've actually tried using file manager and it doesnt let me. It says it can't move the file, or any file actually, from the "0" subfolder.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Something Creative:
so i made some serious progress. I used ES file explorer instead of file explorer and it let me move the file for CWM from the "0" subfolder to the main folder. It said that it was going to overwrite everything in the main folder with the subfolder stuff. I accepted and then i dirty flashed a backup of the same Rom (in case the file would not be found again) that had previously not worked.

It actually ended up working. I am afraid to try to flash a backup after completely wiping b/c i dont want to go through the crap of setting everything up again tonight, but i will give it a go tomorrow and report back. So for some reason, backups can't be flashed from CWM from the "0" subfolder, and they can't be flashed from the main folder, unless you move the files from the "0" subfolder to the main folder.

Hope that makes sense to anyone that may have this problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] psycho2k9:
If you have the time and are by a computer you can also just move everything out of the 0 folder into the root folder and just get rid of the 0 folder altogether and start from scratch. I think it has something to do with cwm and how they recognize the file system. Like I said you should give twrp a try its very good.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danlhall3@gmail.com:
I just installed Geewiz 4.2.1 on my unused Samsung Fascinate. It runs like a top, has root access and runs Go Launcher like it was made for it.

When I switched from Verizon, I had no use for this phone, but, now it makes an excellent home phone with Google Voice with GrooveIP lite.

This is NOT for phones with active service. It uses wifi, not service provider(Verizon,Att, etc.) All other features work well: gps, sensors, etc. The built-in launcher is ok. The recovery is excellent. If I could post to his site, I would, but hopefully he will see this and continue his good work.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TommyTFC:
I think you meant to link to this version of the ROM, the WiFi Only Media version.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2088139

I installed the version you are referring to on my Fascinate and it works great through Verizon. I really liked the simple flashing using ODIN. I've had a few issues that I've posted about elsewhere related to restoring Apps with TiBU and his recent update but otherwise I'm really pleased. So cool to have the ROM that runs on a Nexus on my Fascinate.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Wildchildzg:
I tried same, but no luck. Can you explain what and how you did it? Did you just extracted themes.apk files from zip, set permissions, and then put them in Vendor folder, As I see there are two Vendor folders, one in the root, and another one inside system folder. Those two folders must keep same theme.apk files extracted from zip, and with correct permissions? And what permissions exactly? If you actually can do some step by step explanation, it would be great. Sorry for to many questions, but my knowledge has not enough obviously ;)

Thnx in advance. Cheers
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sebasrock156:
Try install with xRecovery or CWM Recovery... should go :/
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Check both folders, in one of them you'll find themes, replace all theme files in that folder (with right permissions)

One more thing, first if all, tnx for theme.

But, in a future, wright instructions for installation.

Edit : themes are in system/vendor/overlay/framework

Tnx

For those who have just rooted your phones and have tried new rooms and had experience a huge loss of data speeds, this is most likely contributed to you either not flashing the correct modem after the install or not installing one at all. If you would like to keep a good and excellent data speed on your AT&T note 2 i317 flash the K7 modem as this has had the most positive effect for me.

So if you need a backup phone or plan making the switch to boost this is a nice option. Cheers

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
If you are able to get into download mode (or recovery) then you don't have the brickbug which destroys the internal flash memory. Or it at least hasn't broken your device. That would be the worst case, where your tablet doesn't do anything when turned on.

You have got to slow down and explain what you have tried. Telling us that you did "everything" tells us nothing.

You're getting in to recovery since you've tried a hard reset. OK, so what happens when you try a normal boot?

Can you get into download mode? What happens when you flash the stock rom using ODIN?

Are you

absolutely sure

that what you're flashing is for your device? All too often people grab random ROMs, flash them onto their device, which bricks them. A P7500 isn't a Galaxy Tab 2 so, for example, you can't get JB by burning the GT2 rom.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mphymel:
What happens with these devices is they seem to reload with the same image, same apps, same WIFI setting, Samsung account, google account, wallpaper - everything.

The real problem appears as though there is an inability to perform a write to the device. You can delete apps, you cannot install new apps. You can actually delete the google and samsung accounts and create new ones, however when you restart the device, you are back to all the previous "everything" - even the mail inbox will have two year old messages. We are talking "GROUNDHOGS DAY".

You can copy files from your PC to the device, but they must get killed when you power down because you cant load from these when you are in recovery, they are gone. Also, ODIN fails at the point of writing write boot image or something to that effect.

I have mine with the battery disconnected, hoping that maybe some cap will discharge and it will forget WTF it is and loose what ever image it has of itself. I tried clearing everything from this device, loading a rom from the device, and trying to flash stock from sammobile.com but have not been successful.

Does anyone know of some way to wipe this thing a some lower level then the wipe data\cache provision provided by the recovery mode?
