I don't recall ever seeing that option but it was awhile ago. You could try grabbing a root explorer and look around for a large folder. Es file manager for example. I kept my stock backup for awhile but never needed it. You can always find a stock image to reflash with Odin but I'm paranoid and keep at least one cwm backup in case. You could reflash the ROM you put on when you rooted and choose not to select backup this time. It will clear the phone so as above be sure to transfer or save anything you want. Get a little bit used to the process of backing up apps and reinstalling them when you switch roms cause these devs are awesome and always have new features to try. It goes pretty quick after you do it a thousand times. What ROM are you currently using?

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

There is a free app called storage analyser in the play store. I didn't try it but it looks like it will break down what is stored and where. Could help in this situation. Your internal SD should pop up on the computer so if the problem is in there you shouldn't need a root explorer to find that. If its not in there maybe to a cwm backup to external sd and flash something new.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
what program did you use to flash the ROM? how many times have you flashed a ROM (specifically 4.2.2 ROM)?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robberrobbie:
I have only flashed once.. Using a tutorial from XDA, I rooted using ODIN, I installed CWM v6.0.3.0. followed by flahsing CM10.1 Rom. (10.1 -20130414-nightly-d2att)

During the tutorial it said I should back up my existing stock ROM incase I ever want to go back, so from CWM I seleced back up/restore then selected back up. It didnt tell me how to find this file and save to my PC or somewhere safe.. so is it possible that there are a bunch of files still on my S3 that I cannot see from just plugging it into my pc ?

I would really like to do this properly and remove everything from my S3 and just start with a fresh ROM again.. and know that what I need to have backed up was done properly onto my PC or somewhere other than my phones SD card. pls help = )

I just remembered a problem I ran into while performing the above steps.. I dont know exactly what happened but I think the version of CWM may have been old.. so I tried to update or install a newer version (followed another tutorial) is there a change there is the old version still on SD card ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
Do you have a micro sd card? This would allow you to completely wipe the device and install your OS
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robberrobbie:
Yes I do have one I can install. (2GB) would you be able give me a list of the steps on how to do this properly ? (or link to a post that does)

Also, I do find I ejoy the CM10.1, is the verion I have one that I should be running or is there a standard version ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
If you enjoy cm10, stick with it. I'm on tasks 4/23 release and its running beautifully

Place the rom and gapps on the sd card, get what you want off the phone and you should be all set.

Check out the link in my signature for more information on flashing. when you format /system, also format /data + media.

Before you begin, go in rom manager and update your cwm recovery. Latest is 6.0.3.1. Or download the one at the bottom of post #2 in my signature link and flash it in cwm (then advanced > reboot recovery to have it take effect before flashing the rom).

Keep me posted
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robberrobbie:
Ok, I got CWM updated to 6.0.3.1, I backed up apps with TB and saved file to ext SD and got all my pics/vids transferred as well.. Now I just have a couple questions.

1) When I originally backed up my stock ROM in CWM it would have saved to my phones internal SD correct ? Because I could never find it. I just did a back up again and I plug phone into PC and cant find that one either ? Where would the be going ?

2) Can you link me to a good version of CM10.1 for my model as well as the proper google apps.. I cannot locate.

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
If you backed up to your internal sd card then the location should be something like storage/titaniumBackup. Inside that folder would be an oddly dated folder with all the contents. Transfer that to your computer as well.

Cm10 and the respective gapps are in the original android development section. You can also find their stable and nightly releases on their website. Be sure to only use the ROMs for your device model
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robberrobbie:
Ok I just installed new ROM and now its worse, now I have less internal room.

Here are the steps I have followed.. (obviously its not wiping my entire internal SD right ?)

- Wipe Data / Factory Reset

- Wipe Cache Partition

- Advanced --> Wipe Dalvik Cache

- Mounts / Storage - Format System

- Install Zip from SD --> CM10 file.

Once phone boots up, I go to Settings --> Storage - Here it says I have only 2.6GB of space available and I have absolutely nothing on my phone yet, fresh install.

Am I missing a step ?

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
You didn't format /data + media like I said.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robberrobbie:
Ok great that worked.. To to get everything working back the way it was... :eek:

BRICKED 7inch Irola Tablet...PLEASE HELP

I am in DIRE need of some help with my tablet. I received this irola dx752 tablet bricked and cannot fix it for the life of me. I am able to hold power and volume up and get into recovery system version 4.2.01. I Have tried a factory reset and a wipe system cache and the tablet just reboots to the green robot with and exclamation mark. If I press volume up, it brings me back to the system recovery. Now i am not very versed in ADB but I tried to sideload just about every firmware I could find for an a13 allwinner a8 cortex 7inch tablet, since the irola website has taken down its firmware. Also, fastboot will not work on this tablet whatsoever (it just says waiting for device) when i enter any command. I have never seen this tablet boot into a rom of any kind and therefore cannot tell if USB Debugging was ever enabled. I also Have tried different drivers but the one that seem to hold is the Android ADB Interface. CAN ANYONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME SUGGESTIONS OR SOME HELP? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Dragoboss:
Well, we should figure out if it's a hardware problem or software problem.

Have you recently flashed another ROM or kernel, or messed with system files?

Have you dropped, pushed hard on the screen, or caused any damage to the screen?

Regards, Drago

No, my phone is on my pocket yesterday on a party. when i post a photo on istagran de touch become crazy and i restart the phone and the touch stop.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Dragoboss:
Have you tried reflashing stock firmware with Flashtool?

I recommend you trying that, but be sure to uncheck the "wipe data" checkbox, else you will lose your apps and their data.

As reading your story it doesn't sound like a hardware issue, so reflash stock firmware, perhaps try the calibration patch once more after reflashing, and tell us the results.

Hello all,

I'm new to rooting, and I'm running into a bit of trouble flashing TWRP onto my transformer. I've already unlocked the bootloader and used Scott's Tool to reboot into the bootloader. The tablet indicates that Fastboot USB protocol is running. But when I try to install the recovery.blob, I get the following error:

sending 'recovery' (7910 KB)...

FAILED (data transfer failure (Unknown error))

finished. total time: 0.028s

The tablet is running stock 4.2.1 (build 10.6.1.14.4) and I've already tried multiple USB cables and ports. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
[Asus Transformer TF700] mrlakadaddy:
Try rebooting your computer. Do you have usb debugging checked in developer options?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jlfrank83:
Yes, PC has been rebooted multiple times and USB debugging is enabled.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mrlakadaddy:
Adb installed on your computer? If youre still having problems, use moto chopper for root, then download goo manager from playstore, go into setting of that app, select install open recovery script = profit for you. It will install the latest version of twrp for you.

Hence why I prefer plastic. So much tradeoffs for gorgeous looks, for me it's not worth it. Even when I used to have HTC, I really liked the plastic build and would easily prefer it over the One's design IMHO.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyboy22:
Hello, Recently I had my t-mobile Galaxy note 2 sent back to Samsung to have the power charger port fixed (wouldn't charge). Now when ever I make a call or receive a call it seems to randomly goes quite. it can be anywhere between 30 seconds to 10 mins into the call.

I Live in Sheffield and am in a fantastic phone reception area so I'm pretty certain its nothing to do with the reception.

I've tried a hard reset (the holding the power, vol + up buttons thing) but no joy.

I've spoke to t-mobile but since I don't have a landline the calls are pretty pointless as i get cut off and have to start all over again (press 1 for sales 2 for....balhblah).

After searching online and in here a few people seem to have issues with the tethering causing calls to drop but in my case tethering + wifi + bluetooth + gps are all off.

Not really sure what to try, anyone got any ideas?
