So I've been flashing 4.2.2 for a while now, and I have a solid 30/40 /0/ folders. After it refused to delete them at the source saying the last folder in the chain could not be deleted, I went through and just deleted the content within them. Is there any way to just get rid of them or make them stop generating after every flash? Even after some googling, I was unable to find an answer. Thanks in advance.

Use twrp and you shouldnt have a million of them. If you still do, the only way to get rid of them is to completely wipe the internal SD

Sorry if this has been covered but I did a search and didn't find anything, but then it could just be my lousy search skills. I had to rebuild my Charge using IMNUTS GREAT recovery method, (THANKS IMNUTS you saved my sanity) now I am starting with the stock ROM and is there a list of applications I can safely remove with TB. DOn't want to remove somthing I shouldn't and break it. Also one last question I was not able to succesfully restore from a backup I did in CWM. Is there a trick to making and restoring reliable backups using CWM?
Thanks For your help & Understanding with my stupid questions

Check the thread "can't believe I'm saying this" in the general section. There is a recent post there that has nearly everything that can be frozen.

Figured it out. Finally got my nandroid backup working by installing 0817 cwm. So after a good backup I just went through with TBD and started customizing. very thankful I found this forum.

Does anyone know if there is a way to sync app data between devices? I assume via root is one way, but I have a rooted gs3 and an unrooted nexus 7 and for example, I'm addicted to hill climb racing and on my gs3 I have all maps and cars modded but on my tablet its just like starting over again.
Thanks in advance

My backups are reading 1970 for the year. How do I change this? For my own education where are these process getting the time from?
Thanks
I think this is a known issue in the latest version of CWM at the moment. I also have this problem, not sure there's a fix yet though I could be wrong.
Is a known problem on all versions of CWM right now. If it really bother you use ROM manager to create backups and name them whatever you want.

Use twrp and name your backups or just rename them after u are done

Thanks for the response. I was not aware it was a known issue.
It bothered me until I realized that it if you sort by date, it'll actually still be accurate in time (as in the one's that are chronologically latest are your most recent).

And please search. This is a common issue and will probably be fixed in an update to CWM at some point.

Hello I recently picked up a Verizon S3. New to the phone but not to android world, I am looking to see how you guys jump between ROMs? Do u flash back to stock? Or just flash with a data wipe and factory restore? Also is there any way to flash back to stock image minus the recovery without a PC?
Thanks everyone and I did try searching couldn't find much on this at all

if youre asking this, you need to do more reading and research.
I use titanium backup to restore my apps. others use different apps.
I do not care about apps I am asking if there is an issue with going from one ROM to another without going back to stock. I know some bases or mods sometimes conflict with each other

You don't need to go back to stock with Samsung devices. After installing a custom recovery, you just need to wipe the device and flash the custom ROM and you're good to go.
You should look into an app called MobileOdin if you want to flash back to stock without a PC.
