I have tried to backup my efs folder with various tools, resulting in permission denied. So I decided to manually copy and backup my /efs folder with ES File Explorer (with root permission). Is that enough, or do I need to use some fancy tool?

"rfs"?? As long as you have a backup of your original efs folder on your sd-card & maybe another on your pc, then you're good to go! No fancy tools required!!

Oh, of course I mean efs So it's enough to copy the /efs folder?

It is yes! But in theory, whenever you have a problem with efs, then your bak files in that folder record those changes so you can recover using that particular file! But yes, it's always wise to have a backup of that folder either on your phone (sd-card!) or your pc, because if that gets screwed then you could be in a whole lot of bother!

Yeah, thanks! So I can finally flash that kernel I have one on my phone, one on my desktop, one on my laptop, one on my external harddrive and one on my dropbox. Should be enough xD

More than enough & don't forget to wipe dalvik cache also before flashing any kernels!!

Okay, thanks for the heads up!
Are you sure that's enough, since simply copying does not preserve the file permissions ?

Well the best way is
Code:
Cat /dev/block/mtdblock6 >> /mnt/sdcard/efs_backup.img
Then just revert it to restore

"insufficient storage to complete this action. Please free up space and try again", i don't know why if every thing is empty, i did a clean install and i just installed whatsapp and Facebook....
i used to have CM10 and i got the same message, its really strange, i always do a clean install...

Try to check the backup files
it's take too much space

Thx but i always do a full wipe before flashing... So all partitions are with space ... I dont know why my phone shows that.
i know you wipe every thing
but you have to go to the file of back up
and delete it manually by your self
just delete the file of back up that you don't need it

Check in /mnt/sdcard/0 for your CWM folder.

And how do I find them in CWM? When I go into recovery it says no files found. Would I be better off flashing TWRP? And by the way they are there!!!

In Root Explorer (or whatever root explorer you use) you can simply copy the CWM folder from /mnt/sdcard/0 to mnt/sdcard. After moving all the data you wish to keep from the 0 folder to the sdcard folder you could delete the 0 folder.
what is /0? I found the files but don't know what this means? I am still such a noob after all these years!

That is the 0 folder in your sdcard folder. It is created when you flash a 4.2 ROM.

Sorry I go to bed early and go to work early. I still don't find a folder with /0. I can go into mnt/sdcard and clockwork is in there. But doesn't show at all in recovery. Am about to give up! Driving me crazy~~
Still not showing restore files in recovery. I can do a backup and can see it as a restore but after a while (less than a day) it is gone. So tired of this. Still wondering if TWRP would be better?????????

Have you tried the "restore from SD card option in CWM to see if your backups are there?

Nothing there. Tells me 'no files found'. I would love to restore to the last one cuz my battery sucks right now. What about CWM from the market? Could downloading that help???? Thinking out loud here!!!
Ok I did a backup to the external sd card and found it. Then went into root manager and copied one of the backups that I couldn't access and moved it into the new backup folder on the external sd card. Renamed it to just the date like the new one....in other words took the word 'copy' out of the name. And I got to restore to my previous back up!!!!!! Yes Yes Yes!!!! Thanks for ya'll's help!! I guess I had to get mad to figure it out with help!!! Thanks again!!!!
Now flash twrp and see if you have the same problems.

I think I will leave it the way it is for right now. And I found the /0 when I had phone connected to puter. I was getting rid of roms on the sd that I didn't like and was searching around on the internal sd and found it. Thank you so very much for your help! I will probably flash twrp next weekend. I really need my phone for work! So I only try to brick it on the weekends!

Try installing disk analyzer and try to locate a folder which can be in scales of a rom size, if you can find it great, otherwise something went wrong during backup
If you can take another backup then great otherwise its something you can't do anything about.

i can access my backup in cmw i can even delete it or take a new back up and restore it. the thing is when i connect the phone i can't find the back up in internal memory. and surf it with ES file manager too but nothing really found.
Does Access mean restore as well?

Can you restore the backup as well?
And what you are saying is that there is content in clockworkmod folder but of negligible size? Can you post a screenshots of clockworkmod folder?
Trust me use disk analyzer it can find some unknown things
check #2
there i found my backup
(be careful: i tried to flash a custom (so also formatted system+data) and when i wanted to return to my backup i discovered it was erased )

Edit: you can also make nandroid backups directly to your pen drive via a otg cable and avoid this confusion in future...

Use adb to pull it to PC.
adb pull /data/media/clockworkmod
I backed up all the data I wanted to carry over on my PC EXCEPT of course my titanium backup apps.
Is there any way to explore a nandroid backup to find the SD (if it even backs up SD) so I can find my TB folder and paste it to my phone?
My phone did not push my apps from Google when booted and I hate having to manually reinstall them even though I dont have many

You can use TB to extract the apps and data directly from the nandroid.
Copy the nandroid back to your phone's backup location (/TWRP/backups/ or /clockworkmod/backup/)
In TB, press menu then it's near the bottom.
+1 works!
Menu > Extract from Nandroid backup...
thanks one more question
Its upgraded and rooted yet when I go into my folder structure I dont see TWRP folder. I Know twrp works cause its there and I ran a backup but the folder isnt there for me to put my old backup in there.
any tips?
thanks
Try here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2938749
thanks but none of those are it. I can see a file called twrp but its not a folder. Maybe ill just try to create the folder myself and run another backup, wonder where the first one went.
can see see my sd fine and access everything else normally.
thanks
You'll need to wipe your storage probably. Read the thread. People have reported that issue.

Got it, luckily I never delte folders when creating new ones so oddly when I renamed the TWRP file that was supposedly a folder to "twrp2" it returned it to a folder status. I just renamed it back to "TWRP" and it works.
Alls good.
Hopefully maybe that might help someone else.

You have to first run the
su
restorecon -FR /data/media/0
command THEN rename the folder. Just did this on my nexus 7
