do u have backup of all those apps? e.g Thru Titanium bakup or any other backup app
confuse to understand ur question.
did u backup ur apps before install a new rom?

Restore from backup or Download all again.
Hi everyone, I recently installed cyanogen 10.1 for my note 10.1 N8010. It wouldn't install through CWM so I tried to install twrp through goo manager. It couldn't find a custom recover for my device so I flashed it through Odin. I was running android freedom at the time and had a nandroid of it. I wiped data in twrp, it said it would wipe data and cache only so I went ahead. After cyanogen flashed successfully I tried it out and downloaded titanium backup to restore my apps, they weren't there!!! Every restore option had a zero beside it, I checked the titanium backup folder to no avail. I decided to restore to android revolution as I had a backup. When I went to restore there were no files. No backup. I checked the clockworkmod folder and found the file but when I click properties it says - where size should be. Please help me as this is not my fault and I have a lot of important data in the backup. :crying:

Just check on your internal memory , there should be a folder named "0" , if you have this you will find all your titanium backup & CWM folder inside.

There's no "0" folder, would it be insidea folder itself or just on the SD card because I checked the SD card and is not there. :'(

I don't mean the external SD card I mean the internal, it shows all the folders like titanium backup and clockwordmod but there isn't any file in titanium backup and there are backups and blobs in CWM but the backup have a size of like 10mb and I don't know if blobs help. Please help.

Just move this to the root of the internal memory, get into CWM & you can restore your rom from there.

OK, I'll try but I don't think it's going to work.
nope
I tried to restore in twrp and when it said to select files to restore nothing appeared, if the backup was made in CWM do I have to flash CWM recovery to restore it?

Yes as long as you backed up with cwm you should restore with cwm

OK, going to try that, if it works you'll get a cyber hug, if not I'll transfer the titanium backup from my phone as I had all the same applications except some games like nova 3, but they just took up space anyway.
nope
Nope, didn't work, I'll just move my phone apps to the tablet and down load the rest. Thanks anyway
Wait
Wait, in my storage it says clockworkmod is taking up 3.01GB, that cant be empty space, It might all be blobs, ca someone explain this to me?

when i run Rom Manager is to backup my ROM it goes all the way to the end but does not save a backup in the backup dir it say it cannot find the sd card or the ext-sdcard even though there is a at least 2gig free space.
What must i do to correct this fault?

What i have learned is that in JB 4.2. CWM put these backups in a safe place on the SD card (cannot find the with a file explorer) but when i use CWM to ro restore my image it does it 100%
Don't know how to backup to ext SD.
thanks

I tried another app called goomanager

You can change the settings in the cwm app to save them to a different location. However it only works if you initiate the backup from the app, not if you do it from recovery.
Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
Hi all, I'm on CM10.2 and decided to try another ROM...
I did a CWM backup and now I can't restore because CWM doesn't show my backup, that's really annoying because I can see the clockwork/backup folder in Root Explorer app.
Any idea to get CWM restore my backup correctly??

I had that problem before. Not sure about the original CWM recovery, but Philz version has a config setting that allows you to change the path to storage between /data/media and /data/media/0. The path changed in 4.2.x due to multiuser capability. Once you change it, you should be able to see your backups. Or, another option is just to copy your clockworkmod folder manually.
Thnx for all, but I already deleted my backup folder and setup my data all again...
Hi, I have got a bit of a doubt here:
I am currently using CyanogenMod 10.2 on my Samsung Galaxy Trend aka Samsung Galaxy Ace 2x. Now I want to try and go back to the stock rom (TouchWiz from Samsung) but I may want to come back to CyanogenMod so I want to backup the whole current rom (apps included) but since the apps are installed in the sd, will ClockWork Mod's Recovery backup only the data in the internal memory? Will it also backup apps installed in the sd card? Will it backup the whole sd card?
What exactly will ClockWork Mod's recovery do when I press Backup?
really it will save your time. u can change between ur roms without using pc.

I wasn't gonna use my pc, just CWM's Recovery, the problem is that I don't know what CWM's recovery will backup and what not. That's what I want to know.
