I have a Commtiva N700 which I reaaly like as it was dirt cheap and gives me something other than my SGS which is essential to my ministry to play with. I have root and Superuser and have installed Root Explorer. Now I have read that before I go any further I need to back up my EFS folder but for the life of me I cannot find it and I have been through the whole file system and done several searches. Does anyone have a clue where I find it so I can back it up safely (the N700 also has phone capabilities in the UK)
Any help appreciated.
P.S there is no section for this tab on XDA hence my posting Q here.
Question & Answer is always right for questions .
Code:
/ $ cd efs
cd efs
/efs $ pwd
pwd
/efs
On my sgs the directory is right at the root directory.
Did you try 'find -name efs' ?
Thanks for your answer but just to be clear this question relates to my Commtiva N700 Android Tablet.
Hey all,
Just curious as to where a file needs to be if I want to push or flash to my Xoom via adb. Meaning if I have a recovery.img and want to flash it to my phone, where do I need to put the file before i flash? I'm guessing I'd put it in the tools folder of my sdk directory, but not positive. ADB is installed to C:\android-sdk-windows\tools, so if I drop the img into tools, it will flash correct. I've done it before but put the file in a few different spots just to make sure
Yes the files need to be in the same location as fastboot.exe and adb.exe, so in your case that is C:\android-sdk-windows\tools.
Ok cool, thanks. I kinda figured, but didn't really have anything to test it out on. Thanks again.
Or you write adb push and drag the file into your cmd window.
and pls remember: you posted in "development" this is NOT Q&A!!
Thread moved to Q&A since this is a [Q]uestion.
Thanks for moving, and my appologies. I considered my question to be development related as is was about adb, flashing custom recovery images, etc. I wasn't aware that you couldn't ask development questions in the dev section. Or at least start question threads like I did. I was gonna post in the xoom cwm recovery thread, but I figured my question was a bit broad for it. I figured development questions could go in the dev section. In any case, I got ya now. Thanks again. And thanks for answering.
Hello all, thanks for your time.
I have a quick question that I couldn't find an answer to on these forums or anywhere online. The problem I'm having is making a backup of my /efs file. I attempted to post this in the Q&A sticky post but it wouldn't let me, due to not having enough posts. Anyways, on to the question/problem:
I want to backup my /efs file, but I can't seem to find a way. All the apps I have tried don't recognize my device ( Galaxy Note II SGH i317 ) and EFS Pro either finds an error in mismatching md5s or has an error "accessing archives." I should have backed this up before I rooted and flashed CleanROM 5.0, but as they say, hindsight is 20/20. Anyways, my question is how do I manually copy the file? Most posts I have read hint at this being an option, but a noob like me doesn't even know how to get to the file in the directory. Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially a guide through the directory to the file.
Semi-related question: does a CWM recovery file backup the /efs? I've read conflicting information on this. Thanks again!
Dear All!
I expect some problem with the device stated in my signature.
Sometimes (not always) when I insert OTG flash drive with FAT32 some strange zero-sized file creates in root directory of the drive. The file has name like "2691bc3e-163e-4828-83e4-b7815e344d0a" (the name changes from time to time).
If I want to unmount the drive normally - I have to delete this file before unmounting.
If I try to unmount without deleting - it will not be successful. Moreover if I try to delete the file after pressing unmount - the file cannot be deleted and the file manager freezes (tested on Root Explorer, Solid Explorer> Total Commander etc). After that I still cannot unmount the drive.
My questions are:
1. What can cause such file creation?
2. Is there any application that can show information about what active app is working with this file? I know about StickMount Pro, but it simply kills the app without giving any information about it.
Thanks in advance.
