When moving between 4.1.x ( / storage / sdcard0 / ) and 4.2.x based roms

everything for 4.2.x is moved into your

/ storage / sdcard0 / emulated / 0 /

In order for you to get it back just get root explorer and move everything thats inside

' / storage / sdcard0 / emulated / 0 / '

to

' / storage / sdcard0 / '

if twrp STILL doesn't see the necessary nandroid backups then you'll need to flash to a 4.1.x based roms

and then redo the process.

Everything should be fine after that and all you need to do is reboot your phone twice. once for the phone to read

all the files in the root of the sdcard and then again going into custom recovery to find your twrp backup files.

You now and can restore from the nandroid you previously had.

twrp and cwm are both the same its just most recommend using others because of the extra features it has.

all in all, both CAN'T read ALL files but it should be able to read ALL folders.

I've been switching back and forth as well from PA, PAC-man, and LS and what i usually do is flash to 4.1.x

and then move the files, clearing cache and dalvik cache then rebooting and my phone hasn't ran into any

problems from doing that.

If you're staying on LS and trying to restore BACK to The Goodness JB rom, then move this folder

' / Emulated / 0 / TWRP / '

to

' / Storage / sdcard 0 / '

and twrp should be able to read the nandroid because the path to backup and restore is usually ' sdcard0 / TWRP '

or when using an external sd card

' / ExtsdCard / TWRP ' <- JB default location

' / sdcard1 / TWRP ' AOSP default location

Hopefully this info helps you.

Your post should have it's own sticky. I've seen this issue repeatidly, and a lot of users end up giving up and staying with either TW or AOSP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spark91:
It's only a work around for now until custom recoveries can be fully optimized for 4.2.x based roms reading

from the ' / emulated / 0 / ' folder instead of the sdcards root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] HashTagHell:
Yeah, it's actually been one of the reasons I've been sticking with TW Roms. I remember that headache with the Gnex. It's terrifying when you don't know what's going on. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
Which version of TWRP are you running? I know that the older versions had a lot of trouble going between 4.2 and 4.1 Roms. They have done a good job of fixing this recently. I'm currently on TWRP 2.4.1.0 and it's been working fine for me. Try the newest TWRP file.

Also, as far as I'm aware, you WILL NOT be able to restore TWRP nandroids from CWM. They use different organization schemes when running Nandroids, so you can't switch between the two and restore backups willy-nilly..

My recommendation, update to the latest TWRP and see if you can find the files. Otherwise, go into your Root explorer and copy everything from the "0" folder to the base folder. It's tedious and time-consuming, but it should work.

[Guide][How To] Fix Sdcard / Find backups after cm10.1 Flash!

Had this exact problem. This is how I fix mine.

Sent From My Rooted, S-OFF'd Blackberry Curve using the iOS XDA Application for Android.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrEpic:
Thanks everyone for your input. The verdict:

I was so impatient i decided to back up my current rom, locate where that folder was via es file explorer, moved my backup to that exact folder and ta daaa!! Only thing is my sd card is crazy now cause i tried so many things and moved so many things around (i have a sdcard 0 0 0 directory) and i put my whole "0" folder on my ext sd card which took up a lot of space. I took the 0 folder off and put it on my desktop. Im missing a few things but from what i can see, nothing too crucial thus far.

My future plans: I just unrooted to accept update ( running mb1 now, what is that all about). So after class i will be rerooting and throwing Goodness back on there. If i run into any problems, ill be back (terminator voice)

Have you purchased it new?

Have you purchased device unlocked?

Try network unlock (find toolbox in my signature)

Ask your operator if your IMEI is banned

One possibility is physically damage sim card adopter.

Alright Ladies and Gents. So I got the notification that the update to Android 4.1.2 was available. I was like "YES!" So I restored the stock recovery and the update installed just fine. Everything works well. Superuser still was still intact because I used OTA Root Keeper. I was like "Awesome. Now to reinstall TWRP." Went into Goo Manager and installed. Rebooted to recovery and.... Verizon doesn't want me use that... Hmm. So currently I'm stuck with boring stock recovery. Not that it really matters, but I like to use in case I'm flashing something. With that, what am I doing wrong? I searched the interwebs, but came up empty. It seems no one has posted about this or everyone knows how to fix it except me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PVLMTREE:
Try to use Odin to install TWRP or CWMR. (:

Althought VRBMB1 Bootchain isn't updated yet on this guide.

You can try the VRBMA2 Bootchain with TWRP Recovery 2.4.1.0

OR

Download the latest .tar file from TWRP them self and flash it via Odin:

So I tried installing a new Rom. I initially had CleanRom.

I followed the roms instructions aka wipe system twice and factory reset twice and since then, the phone just randomly reboots all the time.

Any idea of what I could do to fix this?!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
Well if you didn't have any problems with your other Rom! Then I would either re- download the new one that your trying, maybe a bad download. :mad:

Or start over just wrote everything 3x, also make sure that the room is not requesting you to use a different recovery. CWM vs TWRP???

Just my 2¢ :cool:

I'm just taking a stab at this because I flash my device to another provider but the ROM probably has settings that are for Sprint built into the ROM itself. So, when you flash the ROM, it's settings those default options of the phone back to Sprint since that's what the ROM was built for...EVO 3D on Sprint. I could be wrong but that's my guess.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] itsme:
the 'backup gsm' feature is only emulated, you have to write an gsm-emulater, connect it to a parallel port in the xda-1, then the bootloader

will talk to your emulator, and write stuff to SD.

I guess the team at HTC writing the bootloader was finished before the gsm team had their bootloader ready.

Hey guys, i have a complicated issue with my newly brought Galaxy Nexus SC-04D, here we go:

1. I got it on 4.0.1, so upgraded to 4.0.4 and rooted and installed ****docomo v3.1.

2. It said phone is locked, selected unlock, phone rebooted twice then FC.

3. Reinstalled and opened it, showed phone is unlocked, congratulations.

4. Put in my sim card, phone shows no sim card inserted.

5. IMEI is the correct one, not generic.

6. When i put my Sim card before unlocking it never asked me to put in a code to unlock it.

7. Tried to restore it to 4.0.4 using Odin still no hope.

8. Tried the theory of unlocking it, still no hope.

9. Sim card slot is functioning because when i search for networks, it finds them.

10. ****docomo still shows phone is unlocked, tried locking and unlocking, still no hope.

I know the issue is not familiar, searched for hours but couldn't find any answer...

Any ideas how to get it to work would be very appreciated :)

Update: Doubted if the IMEI is blocked, but it's not, if this might help..
