S4 was very difficults when you changed kernel. I had tried flashed stock kernel ended I can't on the wifi and the annoying msg came out again. Yesterday I tried a permission corrected kernel ended up no wifi. So flashed back adam kernel 1.4.

Even the nandroid backup set when you need it by restorations also can caused cwm not recognised the exFAT card due to different kernel. Even worse case I had facing when root exploree can't access to ext sd card.

Backup to external SD

I flashed the last PhilZ CWM version and when I try to make a backup on external SD, this is what I get:

"Can't mount backup path."

Any solution please?

Just wanna confirm that the option to format /data and internal sd card corrupts the partition. Need to flash pit file and stock rom to fix.:(

Hopefully can be fixed by phil though.:)

Because "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" works just fine here.

No connection to any cable and 51 minutes to do a backup! D:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] andyjg247:
How much data? 8 mins for 1.4GB to SD on mine.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tassos_i:
Backup time essentially depends on 3 parameters :

1. Device temperature (the higher temp, the slower backup, and above a threshold it becomes desperately slow). Notice that it is not the action of charging that causes long backups, nor the cable connection, but the induced heat.

2. The sd-card : if external, then it is at least 50% slower when compared to internal

3.Tbe... last digit in the extension of Philz 5.06 cwm, when it is about an sd-exfat card: 5.06.0 is much faster than 5.06.6. Phil knows that and he'll do what's needed in the next update.

NB: if you have some time, place your S4 in the freezer and do a backup.! You'll be surprised how fast it is (do not leave it there inactive though for a long time)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:

5.07.1 does not mount 64gb exFat sd
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
Samsung really sucks with this

Unlike other phones, using their modules seems locked to same kernel/ROM since we have them shared in /system

Can any one confirm this works when you are under MF8 ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] timberwolf60:
5.07.1 and 5.06.6 not worked for me on 64GB exFAT. This maybe due to kernel problems. I had tried changing to stock kernel but I facing annoying msg and wifi not working. Chenglu 5.0.3.2-4 and 5.0.3.2-5 akso wirked on my existing rom.

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
Well, since we have to use shared modules from your ROM, probably, custom ROMs could fail

I will be waiting for more comments.

Please include if it works or not and mainly, your ROM version

MF8 STOCK ROOTED - NOT working (exFat)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tassos_i:
Phil, I'm on pure MF8 odexed kernel+rom.

As I said previously:

- 5.07.1 does not mount 64exfat under MF8

- 5.06.6 mounts unfer MF8, but is twice as slow as 5.06.0 to make a backup.

- 5.06.0 can be very fast under MF8 in low temperature (in the freezer, or on a thin towel over a piece of ice...) : less than 8 minutes on my 64exfat,with low compression. I'm ok with this time.

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

Maybe it's stupid, but Phil, are you aware that besides the two exfat files in system/lib/modules, there is also a file "libexfat_utils.so" in system/lib?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
I looked at my ramdisk changes and there's a small bug that is probably causing exfat modules not to load

I will fix it but can you upload here the exfat .so and .ko files from MF8? (I deleted the downloaded ROM sadly)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tassos_i:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Phil3759:
Please try the new uploaded files for exfat support:

5.07.1: same file names, but they are repacked

http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=16685#files

By the way, I do not use cm kernel, as it doesn't support exfat
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] simondavies315:
But the status 7 error is fixed in the recovery posted by invisiblek. Can't you incorporate this fix?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MaKTaiL:
But they announced a fixed recovery, not kernel.

Since it's CWM you can probably use their fix.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ausdim:
Exfat is working with the new repack here.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] MrHomebrew:
New version not working for me with my 64Gb SD card (SanDisk). :confused: would be nice to be able to mount it in recovery.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] invisiblek:
The fix is in the recovery's kernel. So you're half right =)

I don't think its that hard to add exfat support to a kernel...

It could pretty easily be applied on top of cm's kernel tree...

Then again, proprietary crap for the loss...
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] simondavies315:
So the recovery has a separate kernel to the ROMs kernel?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Tassos_i:
Phil I think this time we have a winner :

- 5.07.1 mounts sd64 exfat under stock MF8 kernel.

- 5.07.1 is as fast as 5.06.0 (8 min to backup on external sd, 6 min 30 to restore (with low compression))

- 5.07.1 now mounts sd 64 exfat even under latest ausdim kernel! (unlike 5.06.0).

Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] kieeps:
No exfat on wanam mf4, guess i'll have to wait for wanam mf8 and try again. Nice work though ;) although moving backups back and forth to save space is time consuming it sure ad hell beats using twrp :P

love what you did to cwm.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] ZeizenKii:

do not use max compression. Use Low, it will be much faster and you achieve about 30% compression

Also Aroma File manager does not work. Cannot find aromaFM.zip message comes up

EDIT: I can see the backup file when I am in Recovery but cannot see it when I am in the phone... How weirddd!!! Anyway I deleted it from recovery

after flashing cf-root, it worked! :)

First thing I need before releasing a new version:

Does the new 6.0.3.3 stock cwm from THIS SITE fixed format /cache and format /system issue?

How to test:

- make a nandroid backup

- flash cwm 6.0.3.3 from THIS SITE

- Mounts and Storage ---> format /cache

- Restart into cwm and see if you have /cache error messages on start up
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Bajo76:
Phill,

Flashed 6.0.33 and doing a nandroid right now.

will format /cache after nandroid

just hoping my phone will not die.

This version is based on cm-10.1 stock ramdisk to fix status 7 error

IMPORTANT: exfat users

This version uses the new cross compiled exfat-fuse binary to mount exfat card

It could still be slow on some cards, just test and report compared to 5.07.1

Also,

backup your external storage before flashing this
