So I partitioned my sd card not knowing that it'd wipe the sd card. Is there any way to get back my data? All I really want is my titanium backup. Have I missed something?

I did all the steps to move apps, cache, data to my sd card for the G1 phone and everything is working good but I want to backup everything on a bigger sd card and I also noticed that even if I use a new partitioned fat32 and ext2 sd card it wont boot, can any one tell me how to backup all my sd card please thank you
Hi,
When I upgraded to a bigger card, I did this:
1-copy current sdcard to computer.
2-backup your apps with astro
3-delete all caches on phone.
4-move apps and caches back to phone.
5-format new sdcard with a ext2 partition.
6-copy sdcard data from computer to new sdcard.
7-transfer apps and caches back to sdcard.
8-reinstall all apps with astro.
You should be good to go.

I have a 2GB sd card and now I want to upgrade to a 8GB how do I backup my 2GB sd card to a 8GB sd card after I did app2sd2.bat, cache2ext2.bat , data2ext2.bat.... what commands or program or adb... what do I need to transfer all my data to a new sd card.... am very new to all this kind of stuff
is there anything that needs to be saved or can i just go on my computer and delete everything on my sd and it will rebuild itsself? Also is there another way to format my sd card?
I would back it up first but it should rebuild the files when you put it back in.
To partition use this.

You can't do a Nandroid backup of your SD card. A Nandroid backup is only for backing up the image on your phone.
Simply plug your phone into the PC, select Disk Drive and backup all your SD card data to your PC. Once complete right click the SD Card Drive, click Format. Copy data back to SD card.
EDIT: Sorry - misread the question. Same procedure really - just copy the Nandroid backup onto your PC and then copy it back afterwards. Usually the Nandroid backup and be found in the clockworkmod folder on the sdcard. The folder containing the nandroid backup is usually time stamped.
Does it mean i also have to reflash the radio?
Formatting (or replacing) the SD card will not require you to reflash any part of the phone. The ROM and the Radio are kept on the internal phone memory and never on the SD card.
Simply do as dr9722 has stated - take a copy of the nandroid backup onto your PC, then format the SD card and copy the backup back from the PC afterward and you'll be fine.
So Synergy has been the first rom that I installed on my phone. Now, if i make backups on ROM Manager, and decide to flash to a different rom, say cyanogen for example. If I wipe all of my data, which I would assume is my best choice of action when flashing to a new rom, will these backups that I've made on the SD card be saved or will they disappear with the rest of my data? Should I buy a micro SD to store all of those on or can i even do backups to the external sd card?.
Also, when making Titanium backups, are those something I want to store on an external SD? Or can i restore from places like dropbox? I appreciate any input.
I flash roms three times, and wipe user data every time.
The data on internal sd card is safe.
But I think backup to external sd card is much safer,so I get one(32G) :laugh:
And yes ,Titanium and clockworkmod can backup to external sd card,change the Titanium backup store path and look for cwm menu!
Hi guys. It's me, the stupid guy who formated his SD on Marshmallow with the "Internal Storage option" and then changed the rom . I didn't know all the encrypted stuff!... Well, the problem now is that i have a SD card formated with internal sotage option but i haven't the exactly rom with i did the formatting, only an old backup (before SD formatting). When i put on the SD card in the old backup, it says that cant use it, must format all the stuff. So...
Is there any way to access all my SD data? i tried with the old backup, doing a wipe data... nothing works.
PD: Sorry for my ****ty english
Up!
Any ideas?
You tried putting your SD card into a PC? it might read it though but if it doesnt you have to do the formating. All will be wiped but you can still afterwards try Recuva (program for restoring data) and when downloaded put your SD into your PC and then start it. that would be your best bet.
