i can not get this back up to recognize in twrp i backed up current rom used 7zip in windows since there is no pzip for windows and put the folder in the same folder as my current back up ans still no go..
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Unzip 2x then place in backup folder
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] 4218kris:
after unzip it still is .tar is that ok? or is that what you mean by un zip it twice x2
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Unzip again into folder
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] 4218kris:
ok did that and put the 4.4.2 folder under internal sd twrp/backups/.

i dont get it im missing something. still doesnt recognize it...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Make sure your twrp is in internal or external card and inside 2nd folder
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] 4218kris:
i do make sure its in internal. when i click restore it shows no folders just a blank page and i pulled my external sd to simplify things that and i think its going bad. but thats another story haha
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Cut all files from 4.4 folder paste in sub folder

Make a backup of current rom then go inside backup folder and delete backup then place 4.4 backup in same folder inside this folder
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] 4218kris:
I can't even get it to recognize the back up I made before starting any of this... Omg I'm reflashing twrp

ok so i just made another backup, then before i rebooted i clicked restore to see if i showed up and it did, but after reboot its gone again... what in the world is going on here??

that backup was made to ext sd and the card must be going bad. i did another back up to internal and its still there.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] 4218kris:
i made the backup deleted the files inside then copied the ones from my original back up it seems to be working now thnks for the idea:laugh:

would it be possible to extract the system apps from a TWRP backup?

I have currently had my pad for a week now and haven't installed TWRP yet, I've been trying to run the 4.4.2 OTA but it keeps failing at 3%. Upon investigation while freezing a few of the Verizon and Amazon apps I accidentally hit delete instead causing a mismatch and failure on the OTA. Is it possible to extract anything from a back up or could someone upload the the system/apps/ folder for me so i can replace whats missing?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] paperWastage:
do a full twrp backup

Then do a restore of my full stock backup 4.2.2 on top of what you have

Since then when I try to update an app it gives me an error that it lost communication with the Gear, but it shows still being connected and I can make changes from the phone on things already installed.

Swiftkey can't compare to Swype until they add an option to have it display word correction suggestions instead of predictive text words, IMO.
