I'm having trouble with TB either locking up or rebooting the tablet. It will do this even if its the only non factory program installed. Its doing this about 80% of the time I try to run it. A factory reset makes no difference. Is there a hardware problem that could cause this??
TIA

Pretty sure its just a software problem. I've never gotten anything like it though but my tab freezes occasionally on tibu.

Have you tried clearing data /Uninstall /reinstall? Are you restoring from a similar device? Maybe an app causing your issues when TB tries to restore it. Definitely not a hardware issue.

I am having issues as well. At first I couldn't get past the "All Done" without it rebooting. Reinstalled it without any differences, but read that clearing Google Play cache would help.
I am finally able to use it for a few minutes but the it freezes and I have to reboot.
I am going to try clearing the cache, data, and reinstall one more time.

Check your µSD Card
I had the same problem with TB, when using my 64 GB microSD for the backup. Once removed and setting the backup to internal storage, everything is fine.
Check your SD Card if you're using it for these backups. My Sandinsk SD Card was so "buggy" i had to send it back to Amazon.

I just moved storage from the microsd to the sd and all is well for the moment. I'll try formatting the micro and see if it helps.

I'm only rooted, and ran TB one time to back things up and had no problem. Never restored or updated backup. When are people having this problem?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I had the same problem. I was backing up to 32GB external microSD. It was formatted NTFS. After I reformatted to FAT32, no issues. I've read about others having issues with NTFS and exFAT.
My SanDisk 32GB class 4 was exFAT, so I tried NTFS but neither played nice with TB. So, now it is FAT32 and finally working. Unfortunately, I can't put large files on the microSDHC card anymore.
In short: either format to FAT32 or move your backup to the internal memory. Either way I also suggest getting PRO and backing up to Dropbox or Box for added protection.

Hi,
I'm trying to root my spyrocket using this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340526 and during the back up it is frozen on "backing up system..". I know it said to be patient but its been over an hour and now I'm getting worried. Any suggestions?
Restart and try again. Backing up won't change anything about your system. It only "reads". Should be fine.
Edit: however...never never ever turn off your phone during "ANY" type of write or flash.

tried that
But it still keeps freezing up during the system backup? Is it the size of the sd card? Its 2GB

Have you tried mounting the internal sdcard before doing the back up?
yea Its mounted, it gives me the option to unmount it so i dont think thats the issue. Everytime I try to back it up it leaves files on the sd card so I know its transferring to the card. I might try formatting the card and see if that helps.

How much space do you have free? Or is it the 2gb with nothing else on it?
Ive had backups larger than 2gb.
But I've also never gotten touch clockwork to finish a backup. It freezes on me.

Are you sure it is not the known ".hidenandroidrogress" problem?
While doing backup either in system or data backup hangs forever
Backups take like 750mb. After you format a 2gb card, that's about half of it. Make sure its empty. Or better yet, backup to internal storage and transfer. Just don't backup to internal then format, that's no good.

I was finally able to complete the back up after I formatted the card. Not sure why that worked but I'm Rooted and all is good! Thanks everyone for your replies!

Sometime in the last few days my internal SD Card just disappeared. It won't mount and I can't interact with it through a file explorer or recovery. The phone still works for everything else though and my external SD mounts fine.
I haven't tried factory resetting through Odin yet though I have done a clean install of my ROM which did not fix it. Anyone know how to fix this?

My ext. Card (32gb sandisk ultra micro SD) constantly corrupts random files. I don't think it is the card because this is the third card I've used with the same results. I can however use the card on my laptop and it works perfectly fine via the card adapter. If I put music or movies on the card from the laptop and try to use it on my phone the file won't work or works for a few seconds then stops. Also, when I save to my phones internal memory it works fine. Has anyone else had issue? I've tried factory resets and custom ROMs but its always the same result. ANY input would be greatly appreciated.
Don't install custom ROMs on top of each other.

Tried it and it didnt help. I tried putting some files on my phones ext sdcard via usb cable from my laptop but it freezes in mid transfer. Also when I tried to make a Backup with CWM it wouldnt complete. So i wiped/formatted and fresh installed stock rom again and installed TWRP with the same results. I think its time to just give up. Also when I try and install SUPER USER it gets stuck in a boot loop. Frustrating.
ideas anyone
Okay I was able to flash cm10.1.2 and super user with twrp. Its crazy I can transfer media to the internal storage just fine but not to the SD card. I've factory reset with twrp and reinstalled stock and nothing seems to fix this.

I'm so glad someone has posted this issue, I can confirm it does exist on stock Rogers RUXUMA ROM with an external Sandisk 64GB class 10 card.
The problem especially occurs when downloading compressed files from the internet. They appear fine but when you try to extract them, they have CRC failures. Sometimes they are fine until you reboot the phone.
I have been trying to troubleshoot this issue for months, its a problem with MTP or exFat on this particular phone. I've tried both CWM and TWRP, no success. The old Gingerbread ROM which didn't have MTP or exFAT support works fine, I've gone back and tried dozens of times.
I'm just surprised nobody else has reported this.
Been losing sleep trying every way possible to reformat my micro sd card, but the data is like a phoenix...no matter how I delete it, it comes back. I partition it using disk utility, and the next time I boot it up it has all my old data on it. I delete all the data off the card, empty trash, and it comes back. I use root explorer to delete, it comes back. I even downloaded a program and let it reformat and rewrite over the data, which took about 5 hours, and it all comes back...right after I did it, I checked the card in disk utility and it said it was formatted to exfat and it had 63.XX gigs free...but I go to my phone and the data is back...sorry, I'm rambling..
The craziest thing is that all the data, from what I can tell, is readable. My phone can play all the music off the external card and I can pull backups from nandroids using titanium...I first noticed this when I was trying to backup to my external using both twrp and cwm, but the backups wouldn't stick. I try and delete backups, they come right back.
Oh, the card is formatted as fat32 and is a speed 10 64gig. The card worked for about 8 months, then this happens..
WTF?

Bump.. If anyone has any insight...it'd be much appreciated..
I was thinking that this problem coincided with when I switched from notta's PA to pacman... Could it be possible the_only_ way I'll be able to modify the data would be flashing back..? I guess I could give that a shot...
Edit: well, that didn't work. Glad it actually went smoothly, though..

This happened to me a while ago as well. I had a 64GB Sandisk card.
Same symptoms. Data readble but can't delete or modify the card. I finally realized that the card is toast and sent it in for RMA with Sandisk.
I think you need to replace your card.
Have you tried writing 0s to it? Use something like EaseUS partition Master

After doing a hard reboot, there is a 50% chance the phone will soft reboot again within 5 minutes if I don't clear the cache/dalvik. After doing a soft reboot, my SD card is not recognized and then I have to hard reboot... You see my problem. Do you have any suggestions on what to do so I don't have to clear my cache/dalvik every time I need to reboot? Thanks!
I am running CM 13 Nightlies
Try to reboot your Phone without your SD Card. Maybe your SD is faulty. If your Phone is working ok without SD, then Backup your Data on your SD in PC, format it to FAT32 and try again to reboot with SD Card.
Sorry I forgot to mention Im using my SD card as adoptable storage. Am I able to still format is as FAT32 and also use it as adoptable?

You can still try rebooting your phone without the SD card to test it. Some of the apps may not appear but that's about it. Be sure and turn your phone off before removing or inserting the SD card. I would suggest using the phone to change the card back to a removable media card before putting it in the PC to format.
Just a few questions before I do anything. Will reformating my SD card wipe all its data? Can a FAT32 formatted SD card be used as adoptable storage? Will a FAT32 formatted card be able to have a swapfile on it? I use a ram expander

Yes, formatting the SD card will wipe all data on the card.
No, a FAT32 card cannot be used as adopted storage, only a card adopted by the device can be, that process formats the file system as an encrypted ext4 system.
Maybe, but I'm not sure Android normally use a swap file, so you might have to make some manual changes which would be overwritten every time you flash a nightly build.
TBH, the RAM Expander is probably your whole problem, the low processing power and I/O speeds of the device plus using an SD card are probably causing delayed writes and extreme lag and cache corruption. You should have at least a UHS3 card, even then I would suspect the RAM Expander is the root cause of your problems.

Ive had this rebooting problem shortly after i flashed CM and didnt get the ram expander for a few weeks after that. Ideally, I wouldnt have to flash another ROM.

Try another rom then... CM is hardly the only option, and some devices do better with different ROMs.
Otherwise, give us something concrete like a logcat or something.

Ok I'll upload a logcat as soon as I get it to break again.
Here is a logcat I got. I'm not sure if I caught the first failed reboot but it soft rebooted a good 3-4 times so hopefully there's something worth looking at. Thanks for your help!
BTW - it's in a zip because it's exceeds the file limitations for .txt files on xda.

I did a quick glance though the file, I'm at work and will look through it more later, but two things stuck out to me... there seems to be a lot of package errors, and the theme is not happy.
When is the last time you did a clean install, and then reinstalled your apps from the Play Store (not restored from TB or similar app)? Also, does the problem still occur when you use default theme?

I did a clean install about a week ago (and reinstalled my apps from the Play Store). I haven't tried it with the default theme but I can do that this afternoon.
Just rebooted with the default theme and it booted up fine but then i rebooted with my previous theme and it also booted up ok so basically idk if its the theme yet.

Update: Im fairly certain it was the theme now. I have since replaced it and my phone is much more stable. Thanks for your help! Now whenever I reboot, it will probably soft reboot once and then it works fine.
