Well, you have cwm. Backup all your contact, call logs, sms. I use Super Backup for this.
Copy the 4.3 rom in ext. sd card. I'm using Carbon now.
Copy the 4.3 gapps in ext. card.
Go to cwm recovery.
Backup your current system in ext. sd card
Install rom zip from ext. card.
Phone will reboot into new cwm.
Mount internal and external sd cards. ( to avoid status 7 error)
Install the rom zip again. This time it will actually install the rom.
Install the gapps zip.
Clear cache, delvic
Reboot.
It will take few minutes to complete the boot.

You have followed dhiru1602 thread for efs backup. You will be able to restore it.
As I know this efs cocked up when you flash 4.2 or 4.3 over ICS.
We used to flash 4.2 and 4.3 over GB not on ICS.
Go ahead. Good thing will happen. We all are still alive and enjoying 4.3.
Good luck and welcome to cm 10.2 A3.

Folders from stock 4.04 still there after flashing CM10

I have seemingly successfully installed CM10. However, all of the internal SD folders from my prior stock 4.0.4 install are still there. I want a nice, clean and fresh install and want all junk from the previous stock version gone, but I don't know what's new and what's old. If there is a way to formate/wipe everything, then it seems that that would also delete the new system files as well as as the CM10 Rom zip, thereby making it impossible to reinstall.
Insights and suggestions on this matter greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Make sure you format /system as well as cache and factory reset. Do it twice if it will make you feel better.
You most likely just did a factory reset which leaves a bunch of trash behind.
Format all of that
Flash cm10
Flash gapps

I seem to have answered the last part of my of my inquiry. In CWM 5.5.0.4, I formatted data, system, cache, emmc, sd card. I can now only access recovery mode or download mode. In recovery mode, I obviously can't flash CM10 from the internal SD because I formatted/deleted it! When I get home, I'll try flashing CWM 6.0.1.0 in Odin and then flashing CM10 through the external SD card. If that doesn't work, then I'll have to flash the stock ROM.

Tried it the way outlined above and I now have a nice, clean install CM10!
Next time don't format emmc and sdcard.
For me i delete the files manually using Astro file manager or using a computer and use free app called (sd maid) in google play to remove more and do more cleaning of internal sd card it searches for app remains and empty directories etc all that after flashing the rom immediately before restoring my apps
Not bad but if anybody could find a better solution post it

Ran into a problem installing JB rom EOS

Hello guys
I am new to the rooting scene and I ran into a little problem. I followed an instruction online to root my tablet (TF101) and got Rom Manager to work. I also flashed ClockworkMod by using the rom manager. I am trying to flash my rom into the Jelly Bean from EOS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782410. I did a full back up of my stock rom and ready to install the new rom. I put the downloaded file (from the link I put) into the root folder of the main SD. But when I try to install the rom from rom management, my tablet just reboots and nothing is installed. I really have no idea where to go from here. Please help !
I got it to install but now I am stuck at the boot screen! What now?

You have soft bricked the tablet...
Can you access CWM ?
then download the latest build of team eos (build 63)... create a folder in your external MMC and save it in there
Go to recovery/cwm and format factory settings/data, wipe cache wipe dalvik cache
Now install the ROM by navigating to the folder where you have saved the zip file and selecting it...

When you say mmc, are you talking about the micro SD card? I have been installing from the internal SD. Do you think that could have caused the problem? Also when you say format, do u mean delete everything and place the JB zip file directly into the micro SD?
Problem fixed. I just followed this guide and got a new CWM and that seems to work great
Here is the guide for anyone with the same problem.

Oh, I know what happen...
The default "Backup" function change from ext-sdcard to int-sdcard,
so no space for it to create a backup file...
Therefore backup need choose the function of Backup to external sdcard.
Tested, backup & restore function are fine! Thanks!!! :good:
Thanks, about time we got some recovery love
Any bugs we should be aware of in this build?
seems to working perfect, thanks a lot

I can backup and restore without any problem's on my ExternalSd.
Please check if your sd card is formated as exFAT.
Official Clockworkmod doesn't support exFAT formated sdcard's.
what does silence mean here? does it mean it is so stable and all working good? does it flash themes and wiping properly?
as long as wiping, backup and restore works great on this I think it this is good news. Trying this out.

As I said in the other thread, you're using exFAT which isn't supported.
Also, there is an official CWM 6.0.2.8 now, look here. (his tar has the wrong version number in its filename, it actually is 6.0.2.8)

Sorry, I don't want to come across as annoying but I really am not using exFAT, as I have explained on the other thread. FAT32 was used with a cluster size of 32kb.

my phone GT I9100. I formatted by my phone under ics on my 64gb cl10 card was fat32 about year ago. Recently I upgraded to jb due to boot loop peoblem, I wipe my phone including formatting msd card. This time it formatted to exfat and many problems I had encountered cwm and mobile odin no recognised it. So I should said for 64gb msd, under ics format by phone was fat32. Under jb it will be exfat.

Can you re-upload recovery Odin version (link is broken on the fist page) ?
Or how change cwr version to odin version ?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for port. The recovery won't mount sdcard though so cannot sideload anything. Why is that?

can i format the internal sd?

hi all
when i install a rom using cwm is it safe to format the internal SD before wipe date and format system?
this is because i cannot backup my rom using cwm
thanks

It is okay to do a full format for your internal memory, if and only if you don't need anything on your SD card. Be sure to have copied everything you need to another storage before proceeding. But how can you flash a ROM from CWM if you formated everything. Just format after flashing the ROM not before.
Why you can't backup using CWM?

If the ROM is on an external sdcard, it shouldn't matter. still, that is good advice, as accidents happen. For instance, when i started using twrp I formatted my external sdcard instead of my internal, and lost my backups. Live and learn..

CWM will not backup my ROM and i think there might be some corruption on the SD card because CWM goes throught the motion of backing up the rom but says it cannot find SD card or SD ext.
Can i reinstall CWM over its-self?

Are you certain there is no backup? I know i have had it say something like, can not find SD ext skipping SD ext, or something, when using cwm, and it really didn't matter. Uhm, but yeah, you can always reflash it or try another custom recovery, like twrp.

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.

2. Wipe cache partition.
3. Go to advanced - > Wipe dalvich cache.
4. Go to mounts and storage-> Format everything except your card
5. Now install rom and gapps.
6. If you to increase memory use mounts2sd or int2 ext script.

The problem is not with your data the problem is with your data partition..
While taking backup it took backup of your present apps not the overlapped ones.
I restored nandroid backup,after wiping everything except sdcard ,bt got no success.Still phone reboots.
Should i flash rom after deleting & recreating ext4 partition or just wiping everything except sd card?

It might be happening due to low ext partition if its 1 GB make it 2 see if that solves your problem..
Hit thanks if I helped u.
via Apache Helicopter
I think reboot issue is due to int2ext script .As when i flash cm 10.2 rom by sak & copy the script to sys ,phone gets strucked in cyanomd logo.
if it is true then suggest some other memory increasing script which is better(i have 1gb ext4 partitn).
Which recovery are you using?? If you are using CWM old version switch to TWRP or philz..
Use mounts2sd other than int2ext script..
How to configure it check This
