[Q] (PLEASE HELP) Can't find "Backups" folder in "Clockworkmod" folder?
I can't find the folder named "Backups" inside of the larger folder named "Clockworkmod"...I recently went to Liquidsmooth 4.4.4 and the ROM is fine but I wanted to restore and can't backup.....
When I try to restore from recovery mode I get the "MD5 Mismatch" error, which apparently can be quickly fixed with access to the MD5sums file.. The problem is that my computer is not finding the "Backups" folder, and neither is my phone's file browser. I know it's there because when I go into recovery mode with Clockwork and look at the restorable backups there's a backup sitting there under Clockworkmod/Backups..... Help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey all,
So I did a nandroid backup yesterday as I normally do, reboot into CWM>backup and restore>backup to external, and when it was finished I rebooted and went into the clockwork folder on my external SD to make sure it worked. I found out that the actual backup file was made but no blob folder was created.
I first discovered this last week when I went to restore and an error came back saying there was an MD5 error. Before any of this occurred I deleted the blob folder to free up space and after deleting it, I did a nandroid thinking that another blob folder would be created in the process of the nandroid.
This is probably a small issue thats easy to fix, but I am unaware of the fix. Can anyone assist me please?
I created a Nandroid backup in CWM 6.0.4.0. I can see the file while in CWM, but it is nowhere to be found in either Root Explorer or Windows. CWM says the files are in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup, but the clockworkmod folder is empty when I browse it. Where are these nandroids actually saving?
Could someone tell me where CWM stores its backup files in Nexus 5/KiKat?
My Samsung phones allowed CWM to store its backups on either the internal memory or the externalSD. They were in a folder named "Clockworkmod" And sub-folder "backups"
I can see the main folder on my Nexus 5, but not a sub-folder. I know the backup files must be somewhere as CWM lists 3 of them when I select the restore option.
I'm trying to find them to rename them since CWM 6.0.4.5 names all the files with a date of "1970-03-07" instead of a legitimate date.
Thanks for the assistance.

I am trying to extract the file mmssms.db from several nandroid (TWRP) backups of Nougat. I know that in Nougat this file was moved to "/data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/databases". I can browse to this file on my phone but if I browse through the contents of the data partition backup from the nandroid backup files (data.ext4.win00X) the path "/data/user_de/" does not exist. Can anyone tell me where this file can be found in a TWRP backup archive? Otherwise I will have to completely restore these backups one by one to pull each iteration of the file off the phone.
I think that TWRP doesn't backup this folder for the simple raison that Nougat is quite new.
Maybe it backups only a list of folders in /data (but I can't confirm it)
I got just ****ed right now, me too.
