CWM Backup Location

Milaq - thanks for all your hard work. I'm really digging this rom.

My biggest issue has to do with CWM and the emulated storage. When I do a Nandroid backup, it saves them on the root of the emulated drive, which is not accessible when I connect my TP to my PC. Is there a way that you can change the default backup location to inside the 0 folder, so that windows can see it and copy it? Or is a setting that I can change somewhere?

---------- Post added at 08:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 AM ----------

The new CWM will protect the new emulated storage that this rom uses. Because that storage actually exists in the data partition, if you wipe your data with the old CWM, it will also wipe your internal SD/emulated storage.
[TouchPad Development] green2000:
Are you saying that if I Wipe Data ,it will now erase my nandroid backus since they are stored in the emulated SD?
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
From what I understand, unless you are using milaq's new CWM, anything that is stored in the emulated storage will get wiped if you wipe the data partition. Anything on your external SD (the old sd partition) should be fine no matter what recovery you use.

Tailor Made sizer

I just got up enough courage to put cm 10 onto my TP. I have been on CM9 for a a year (I think). But I watched a few of Roland's videos on youtube and they were extremely helpful. But this build is great and I like the smoothness of the build. I also used Tailor to increase my partitions I increased the System (600mb) Data(2GB) cache(200mb) Unused (8mb). I hope these are good numbers.

My question to the knowledgeable folks of xda. Are these good numbers to use? I tend to be a app fanatic. I also like to have my apps updated and I hate to see the insufficient space error.

Thank you Milaq:o
[TouchPad Development] gradular:
If you use milaq's cwm , when you wipe data, the data/media folder where the internal sd card is stored is skipped.

---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

Take more from your usb (media) drive and give it to data.
[TouchPad Development] thurman:
Thank you for the advice I will try to give data about 8gb.

working ui sounds

How did you get the ui sounds to work? It can't just be reinstalling the sound files. I found that once I produced one ui sound the sound was crashed. I don't see what else you changed. Did something change upstream that makes it work now? Perhaps linking in a different media-legacy? The revert that you site just teases me. How did you do it?
[TouchPad Development] na_tra:
This 10.2 is great all overall. great battery life and wifi is constantly on, not like the 10.1 which is off when stand by. it took some time to reconnect.
[TouchPad Development] sektoid:
great work.

10.2 works good for me.

i think it is smoother then 10.1
[TouchPad Development] milaq:
have a look at the upstream changes referenced in the commitmessage in the revert i pushed yesterday.

it got fixed upstream by ifdeffing a bit in a few audiopolicy related repos.

so it should be working w/o any interaction needed when building with a recent pull.

cheers

Twrp or cwm

I am extremely new to this build. I used this build coming from cm9. Goomanager of course posted a update today and it download ok. Put TWRP couldn't unzip it. Does the Milaq build only works with CWM? Maybe I need start over again. I have a current version of TWRP also. Help......
[TouchPad Development] gradular:
Its been said many times you must use the cwm in the op. Twrp doesn't work well with it
[TouchPad Development] Scotty_Two:
Can't seem to download the linked CWM from the OP.

My upgrade path for my 32GB Touchpad that is currently running CM10.1.

Boot into Android

- Run Titanium Backup and backup everything

Boot into WebOS

- Use Tailor to resize to the following

media: 17144 MB

system: 600 MB

cache: 200 MB

data: 10240 MB

unused: 8 MB

- Remount 'media' while still in Tailor

- Connect Touchpad to PC and copy files onto HP.

cm-10.2-20131002-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip

gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

recovery-clockwork-datamedia-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin.zip

Boot into ClockworkMod

- Do a Nandroid backup

- Factory reset and wipe data

- Install zip from sdcard (flash each of the following)

recovery-clockwork-datamedia-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin.zip

cm-10.2-20131002-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip

gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

Boot into Android

- Run initial setup

Boot into ClockworkMod

- Do a Nandroid backup

Boot into Android

- Install Titanium Backup

- Move Titanium backup folder (/storage/sdcard1/TitaniumBackup)from media partition to new SD card "partition" (/storage/emulated/0)

- Run Titanium Backup and restore the apps I want back.

Media partition still has lots of space because I need to store videos there that I can see in both WebOS and Android. I'll play with it for a while, to see if I shift more space either way between data and media. I also couldn't reduce media partition to much because CWM backups and Titanium backups (which take up lots of space) were in the media partition.

====

Now my findings.

I have one issue I need to sort out. After flashing the new CWM and booting into it to to a backup, it seems to have stored them in a different location. It is not seeing my previous backups. I was going to move the old backups into the new backup folder, but I can't locate the new backup folder. If I use ES File Explorer, I can't find the actual backup that I made using the new CWM. Where is this folder so I can move my old backups to the new location?

As for bugs, it seems stable so far. Only been trying for a few minutes. Bug found one bug. When I open the settings and press on the 'Buttons' button, Settings crashes.

Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] milaq:
refreshing with sitecache clean should help.

i'll have a look at the session settings which may have caused this.

Under storage, I have an sdcard0 folder and an sdcard1 folder. Is this normal?

Under Storage in Prefs, I can see that I have ~10.5GB of storage space under SDCARD so I know I got my partitioning right, but I don't understand why I have 2 sdcard folders. If I go to /storage/emulated/0, it clearly links to the sdcard0 folder. However, the only thing in there is the ROM and Gapps and CW that I originally copied the other week when flashing to CM 10.2.

Perhaps it needs to be deleted? Everything downloaded via various apps (ie Subsonic) goes into sdcard0 if I select "/sdcard/Music" for the download location.
[TouchPad Development] gradular:
That is normal. Datamedia builds, which are the norm for many devices, have an internal and external card. Sdcard0 is the data partition. Sdcard1 is the usb media partition that webos can also access.
[TouchPad Development] xuefer:
all the rom upgrade says i should purge "data" (and not mentioning .android_secure), so it will remove all apps except those on sdcard

but i never remove the data when upgrading and it's all fine. although i must remove data when downgrading (or just restore backup)

can you provide a kernel (or rom) that support "move to tablet"? i have bunch of apps installed on sdcard and i want to move them back

i'm too late to figure out that, it's no longer supported in your rom and all apps is gone

i don't want to re-download them, it just too many and to big to download

I tried to use cm10.1 kernel and the Settings -> app -> "On SDCARD" back, but all system apps including the systemui is crashing, and lately a whole ui restart. i didn't have chance to move apps back

[TouchPad Development] crap_dude:
Hi! I've been running these nightlies since Tuesday I think. Everything works fine here with the new partition. It's great to get all that space for apps since I only had about 150 Mb left before flashing this ROM...

My only problem and I don't know if it's ROM related but I can't get Gmail to send my emails. They all stay as "Sending..." in the Outbox. Sync IS on. In settings, it says Sync as been completed a couple minutes ago but it doesn't seem to sync already.

Anybody else having problems with Gmail? Any advice on how I should get this working?

Thanks for this great ROM!
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
I had it and just uninstalled it and got the new one from play store.
[TouchPad Development] crap_dude:
Ok now I feel stupid because I posted this message before even trying uninstalling Gmail and putting it up again.

Guess what, it worked. Thanks.

Now I have a really awesome and up-to-date Android tablet!

[TouchPad Development] marcustaz:
Milaq, my family and friends are absolutely Loving our touchpads again, THANK YOU!
[TouchPad Development] thurman:
I would like to apologize for my comments. I think my comments was based upon my not having real knowledge of the proper operation of the build. My comment was judgemental and disrespectful. The devs here are knowledgeable and do this work for the masses and are appreciated greatly.

Again I not only apologize to the devs, I also apologize to the many people that experiment and report their findings. Thus creating a more stable build for everybody.

Maybe I should go get a iPad, if I am not willing to be apart of this great community of people that help each other taking valuable time out of there day to assist each other.

Thanks for everything.
[TouchPad Development] marcustaz:
Nah ipads are boring :) I think the best way we can thank the devs for all their hard work is a small donation through PayPal
[TouchPad Development] GeoFX:
Great ROM. Much smoother than the current 10.1 builds. Any chance for a patch to obtain the Tablet UI interface? I'm so used to having the Navigation buttons on the lower left and notification area on the lower right from the 10.1 builds.

Thanks!
[TouchPad Development] JustMeToo:
That's the reason I didn't switch yet. lol
[TouchPad Development] crap_dude:
Yep. But I don't really use Bluetooth on my tablet so I don't mind very much, I do on my cell though.

Next thing to fix is the aspect ratio for the front facing camera. It has portait mode when it should be landscape. It does some weird Hangouts sometimes.

Finally, but we can all live without, the volume buttons are inverted.

Again, thanks to the devs who contribute to these nightlies.

---------- Post added at 01:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 PM ----------

I also come from Evervolv before trying out the CM 10.2 builds and it was not stable at all.

There has been a lot of random reboots and the tablet was barely unusable for a long period of time. I know it will be ok in the near future and I wish them good luck, but for now I'll stay put with the CM 10.2 nightlies.

I've tried A LOT OF ROMS in the past year and this one right here is very stable, smooth and battery friendly. Simply love it!
[TouchPad Development] ranjib:
Yes, thank you all for supporting these cm-roms. (I'm just desperately waitin' for bluetooth because I need it....;))

Look in the second post of this thread. There are two zips one can flash to resize to either 400 or 432MB. That will be plenty big for JB 4.3. I've also seen a script floating aroung that resizes to 512MB. I think I saw it in one of the post in this thread also:

Thanks to all developers that are constantly improving this.

I managed to install all I needed again with a clean install after tailor, of course.

This is what I used to I install

cm-10.2-20131002-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip

gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

Now the challenge is that I do not have the camera icon that was in 10.1. I am sure I am missing something simple but am out of options after reading many many pages on rootzwiki. BTW, face unlock works very well so I know the camera is working. Did the app get removed from the gapps package?

Thanks for your help in advance.
[TouchPad Development] GeoFX:
I couldn't wait and built the Tablet UI zips using the AGp toolkit I read about on the 10/05 build. Everything works except the Wifi On/Off toggle in the Quick Setting Panel doesn't show up. Pressing the empty space brings up the Settings panel where you can toggle the Wifi on. Also, the Percentage option for the battery in the status bar doesn't work.

Here are the zips. Once changes it to tablet UI and the other restores the UI back to the stock Phablet UI. :highfive:

CWM Backup physical file missing

I am running Milaq's CM10.2 1005 rom. I did a CWM backup which completed successfully. But I could not find the location of the backup folder and files.

[TouchPad Development] crap_dude:
An issue I noticed regards flashing builds from within the GooManager updater. I have installed CWM-DataMedia with recovery-clockwork-datamedia-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin.zip from the OP.

When I press on the "Flash" button after choosing a build, tablet reboots in recovery but that's it, flashing process doesn't start. I do have to manually flash the zip file. Is it recovery related?

Anybody else having this issue or know how I could get this to work? Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] tpuserhp:
I have a way to verify the mediadata CWM backup folder now (I am running Milaq's cm10.2 rom). I need to use CWM install zip function to browse the /sdcard/ClockWorkMod/ folder and I can see the backup folder and its subfolders. ES File Explorer and using ls -la command in Terminal app do not show the backup folder. Could be due to root permission issue. Odd.
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
This has been my main issue with the new CWM. It saves the backup files on the root of the media partition, which is not accessible to Windows (or anything else that doesn't have superuser priveledges I think). I believe the CWM folder you are looking at is inside the 0 folder. I'm hoping that someone will modify CWM to create backups inside the 0 folder so that we can see them and copy them to other devices.
[TouchPad Development] tpuserhp:
May be creating the backup folders and their files with 755 permission bits would help.
[TouchPad Development] copene:
instead of just hitting "backup", hit the "backup to external" or whatever it's called a few lines down. I did this too right off the bat and realized it was backing up where I didn't want it so I deleted the backup within CWM and backed up to "external" card and it's where it should be. SDCARD1
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
That would work except that Milaq told us to shrink down the usb partition to around 400mb or so.
[TouchPad Development] graffix31:
Just did it yesterday. Are the feeds updating when you start preware? Its there. How did you install preware? I'm sure you can use webos quick install to install it too.

Doesn't matter, the "external sd" or whatever it is is your massive chunk of storage. I have like 24GB on that partition where you should be saving your backups.

[TouchPad Development] green2000:
It took me some digging around, but here is what I found using the terminal emulator as root and using X-plore File Manager app with SuperUser access. These are directories from an Android perspective.

Back to sdcard:

/storage/emulated/clockworkmod/backup

Backup to external sdcard:

/storage/sdcard1/clockworkmod/backup

[TouchPad Development] crap_dude:
I've been having a problem with ONE app in particular and was wondering if anyone could tell me if it's working with your 4.3 build. Maybe it's only an APP related problem and not ROM.

RunKeeper in the Play Store : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fitnesskeeper.runkeeper.pro

It won't even start, it FC right away. It used to work on older ROM and I miss the ability to input activities. Thanks to anyone who tries it out and let me know how it went.
[TouchPad Development] tpuserhp:
I also found the backup here: /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod. This should be the same physical path as /storage/emulated/clockworkmod/. Somehow in Terminal Emulator as Root, I cannot find the symbolic link between the two. Well...
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
It does matter because my "external sd" is no longer my massive chunk of storage, because of the repartitioning. If you follow Milaq's advice, you shouldn't have room in your external sd for any backups
[TouchPad Development] copene:
I have no idea why anyone is doing anything on the webOS side with Tailor when there is a ready made flashable zip that gives you 500+mb of system storage that you just flash through CWM then carry on with your install of 4.3. This whole thing is ultra simple.

A-B is better than A-Q-R-T-M-T-B is it not?

An Acmeuninstall is the best way before install the 10.3 ?

[TouchPad Development] thokkalodi:
You probably have some contents on the USB(media) partition. First empty the partition so that the contents of the partition occupy less than 400mb of space on the partition and then try. It should work.

Does this only change the one partition size or all 3 (4?) Partitions
[TouchPad Development] Y314K:
I could be wrong but I believe it takes about 112MiB's of space from the USB (media) partition where WebOS lies & moves it to Android (system) when flashing it on a ACMEInstaller3 setup...

USB (media) - Depends what size TouchPad u have... (Decreases 112 MiB to be added to the Android (system) partition)

Android (system) - 512 MiB (Increase of 112 MiB from ACMEInstaller3 400 MiB size)

Android (cache) - 200 MiB (Stays at ACMEInstaller3 size)

Android (data) - 1.5 GiB (Stays at ACMEInstaller3 size)​
[TouchPad Development] RolandDeschain79:
512MB Flashable zip

yes that correct:), It changes just the system partition from 400-512MB by subtracting the space from the larger USB media partition. You can either flash it with CWM/TWRP or use it with the ACMEInstaller 3. Once you've flashed it the system partition will stay that size, even when restoring backups and it won't change unless you Run ACME3(changes the size to 400MB) or manually change it with Tailor.

I went ahead and deleted the old Android directory from /external_sd and got back a few hundred MBs of free space. Reboot to webos and android with no problems.
