Okay, so today I took a cwm backup of my current rom, cm music ed v4...{cwm v5 by tj_style}
I have a habit of uninstalling all less-than-frequently used apps, clearing cache, removing other unimportant stuff etc...so that my cwm backup remains relatively small in size (that way I can keep 4-5 backups simultaneously on my sd card)
Before starting, I checked that I had filled almost ~250mb of my 512mb sd-ext partition...and I had around ~4gb free space on my 16gb card...
However, it took a staggering 1.5 hours to complete my backup! (Normally, it averages to 15-25 minutes)
When I then try to restore my backup, it got stuck at "checking md5 sum" for around 15mins, after which I pulled out the battery, and reflashed the rom (rather than restoring it)
So, in an attempt to find out what went wrong, I checked the cwm backup, only to find that the entire backup was close to 3.5gb in size!!
(The wierd part was, based on previous experience, the backup shouldn't have exceeded 450mb max)

Everything inside the backup was normal, except the sd-ext tar, which was super-inflated...
Inside the tar, there was only a "lost+found" folder (while there should have been other folders as well), and there were only a few big files (very big) and LOTS of other numerous very-small files in it...
The big files aren't extractable, hence I don't know what made them so large...
So I am just troubleshooting the problem, trying to learn what may have happened/gone wrong...
{When i reflashed the rom, cm musc ed v4, everything was working fine, including the sd-ext partition
The recovery also is working fine, except the backup and restore part}
Help would be appreciated...
(P.s. don't tell me to use different recovery/rom/sd card, since that is not my purpose, I want to know the exact problem)

ROM Manager is updated and it has a very useful feature there is one thing that's always bothered me about making nandroid backups is having to keep them stored on my phone – and with the limited storage of the devices. Thus, it's not uncommon for me to end up transferring backups to my PC in case I should need them again. Thanks to a new feature implemented into ROM Manager 5.5.0.8, that process just got a lot easier. Download links are in the source link or you can find it in Google Play..
How this new feature works : This new feature enables a download server on your phone that can easily be accessed over Wi-Fi from your PC. Using it couldn't be easier, either – simply jump into the Manage Backups menu, hit the option to Download Backups, and that's basically it. Enter the IP address into the address bar of your favorite browser, and away you go and if you don't have ROM Manager download it from below..

I've tried it 4 times now in 2 weeks and I always get 0 backups found even though I have 5 on the phone in /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup. This is the default storage location for the Nexus 4. It says right in ROM Manager that I should be able to get them from there using the backup download server. Maybe I'm not backing up to the right format? What I mean by that is they are not zip folders but standard backup folders. I tried zipping one and its still not seen so I give up.

Hi,
I'm getting this error on start up:

I'm showing 0.91GB (1.97GB total) free in first internal storage
1.58GB (11.25GB total) free in the 2nd internal storage
26.82GB (29.76GB total) free on my SD card.
I've tried clearing the cache partition as posts from other devices suggested. I really don't want to do a full wipe so I hope someone has a quick fix.
Everything seems to be working fine, just not sure why I'm getting that error.. I only get the error on start up. I can get into Play Store fine (unlike others who have reported the same error message).
I'm running CM10 20130114 NIGHTLY and have seen it for the few week. I'm not sure if it's the ROM, some app, or something I did.
Much appreciated for any assistance.
you have all your pictures, video and music stored on the internal phone storage, and the external SD is almost empty. Move everything to external SD to get rid of that message
I freed up 3GB in the internal storage and am still getting the error.. I'll just do a full wipe on the weekend. Thanks for trying though.
Same problems
I have the same problem too.
I have 0.9 GB (1.97GB total) free in first internal storage
3.5 GB (11.25GB total) free in the 2nd internal storage
I'vw just updated to CM10 20130117 NIGHTLY and from that time I see this warning everytime I reboot.
I wiped full data before i upgrate and i dont know what is the problem. My phone still runs ok
Any one can solve this problem without wipe full data again?
solution
I found the solution
this is a known issue caused by Viber and/or Lucky Patcher. Move Viber to the SD Card, and it should be solved
Erm, what if it's lucky patcher?

Hello,
I flashed the latest MIUI fastboot dev rom (V6 Lollipop 5.0.2) (aries_images_5.4.24_5.0_cn_05157b373b) on my Xiaomi Mi2s on Friday. However, as I found out later, this ROM is somewhat special, because it merges internal storage and partition for the installed apps together. I didn't know it then and wanted to return back to the previous rom, so with the use of MiFlash, I tried to flash one of the earlier V6 L5 fastboot roms, but this error occured:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Meantime, my Mi2s fell to the floor from approximately 40 cm, but nothing happened, no obvious hardware damage or functional issues so far.
The issues that started after flashing the fastboot rom are following:
- it is not possible to flash any of the previous MIUI fastboot roms via MiFlash and with the use of "flash all" script, except for the latest rom (aries_images_5.4.24_5.0_cn_05157b373b), othwerwise the same error 0x80004005 occurs
- I can flash any of the previous fastboot roms with the use of "flash except storage" or "flash except data storage", but if I do so, there is no free space in the internal storage as demonstrated below (the partition remains merged), thus I cannot update the system with multilanguage MIUI
- the only rom I am able to use and successfully flash is that latest fastboot one (aries_images_5.4.24_5.0_cn_05157b373b), that allows me to copy the multilanguage MIUI rom to my internal storage and flash it via updater up
- however, I cannot flash this particular rom from the MiRecovery as an update.zip file ("Failed" error)
- "Wipe SD Card" in MiRecovery is not functioning as well ("Failed" error)
- the info about the capacity of internal storage indexed in my MIUI system are off too (image below)
It is clear something went wrong. There is something with the storage partition and I don't know how to solve it. Is there any way or anything I could try to return the system to its previous functioning state, please?
Thank you in advance for your answer and guidance.
Unfortunately yesterday I broke the display of s2 plus, in the internal memory I had a lot of data, like photos and whastapp backup so now I want to make a backup, (Even if it is broken on the top of the screen you see that for even half a centimeter it works) Someone who has the ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.3.1 can kindly tell me what steps I need to do to make a backup in the external memory because I can not see the options that are under
Simply you tell me what line is backup and then what linea is backup to external sd card
Thanks, sorry for my bad English

Hey XpiroettaBoom !
You Can Get Your Data like Pics & Whatsapp data/backup by Connecting Your Mobile To PC in Internal Memory DCIM Folder is commonly PICS folder Captured by the Camera...
Or You Can Use MOBILedit – PC Suite For All Phones To Get Your Data.....
Or Otherwise This is CWM Method as You Want To Proceed....
Goto your RecoveryMode... IN CWM its good that it works with Hardware buttons...
Below is A Pic of CWM You can Follow the Pic To Judge....
Press 5 times Volume - (down) Button To Go into Backup & restore Option while You are in CWM
One thing I've To confirm If we use External SDcard than We have To Press 6 Times Because "Install Zip From SDcard1" shows up in Menu...

Yesterday I got all my root set up and working fine on my Redmi Note 9 Pro using Magisk (albeit without TWRP installed as I didn't know anything about it at the time) then I decided to install the Smali Patcher module with Magisk so that I could Spoof Pokemon Go with my son in the evenings. I created the module no problem, but when Magisk flashed it, my phone bricked and got stuck in a bootloop to fastboot. I eventually got TWRP installed and factory reset my phone in the "WIPE" menu, I used the standard Wipe that deletes user data etc then factory resets the phone. Everything seemed fine, I was able to set up the phone as per normal until after about half an hour I noticed none of my apps had installed yet. I went into the Play Store and most of had a "couldn't restore" error on them and clicking on one and trying to force it to install would come up with an error about insufficient storage space.
I plugged my phone into my PC to have a look and to be amazement, Internal Storage doesn't show up at all, only the SD Card shows. After over an hour, only one or two apps have successfully installed so I assume they are installing onto the SD card and that's why they are taking an absolute age to install. Most of the apps just flat out won't install so I can pretty much just make a phone call, that's it. Am i right in thinking I have corrupted my Internal Storage somehow and the OS is now isntalled onto the SD card? Maybe the Internal Storage has been formatted and not reallocated or something? How do I go about restoring my phone to how it should be ie 64gb Internal Storage.
I have tried restoring to factory settings again and it made no difference,
